So...

It's apparently been awhile. Over a month in fact. Not gunna lie, I wish it was because some great tragedy had befallen me, because then I'd have a good, dramatic reason for not posting. Sadly, this is not the case. Instead the reason would be that I've been running around like a chicken with it's head cut off due to school work. By the way, if you don't have a knack for Foreign Policy, don't take it! Lordy, I fear this class might just ruin my GPA.
But enough of the excuses, time for some fun things. It was my birthday on the 23rd (Sunday for those of you that care) and one of the best presents I got was from my dad - a new coach bag/computer case. It's big and all hand brushed leather. Rather pretty really. Yes, you can say it: my dad is kinda freakin' awesome. Another cool preasent: the premier of ABC's Once Upon A Time. Who watched it? Show of hands please. Wasn't it awesome!?!? So I now share a birthday with a newly made up (Disney) fairy tale character. What's not to love? Also, if all Prince Charmings look like Josh Dallas then please, sign me up to be a sleeping princess. I sleep a lot already, does that help? I can't wait to see more - the scenery, the story, the costumes! Another reason to love Sundays ladies and gentlemen.

Jaw-dropping costumes: Go!

Why yes...

 That is a beautiful man...

 With an amazing smile...

 Wearing fitted, leather pants...

Carrying a baby... Good-bye ovaries. Also, my expectations are now way high for real -life men.

Pretty Pretty Princess

So I'm officially in one of those moods. You know, the "I don't wanna do anything" mood. I can't be sure if it's latent seasonal depression, stress or something else entirely (I personally am going to lay claims to stress... it was not a fab weekend on my end). So instead of doing work on my day off I sat on the internet and browsed pictures. Now I don't know about the rest of you but I've kind of fallen in love with WeHeartIt. Not only does it bring up some of the best pictures for a subject (as long as they've been tagged, that is), but it also tells you the website the picture was garnered from. The amount of hours I have now spent on tumblr is kind of redonculous. If I didn't already have this blog, I might have gone and gotten a tumblr account for myself.
But what has any of that to do with Pretty Pretty Princess? Besides me wishing I could play that delightful old school game (what grown up little girl doesn't from time to time), when I'm in a funk I like to go to my happy place. The easiest way to get there is via fairy tales. Grimm, Anderson, Disney... doesn't matter. However, in my search I did run into quite a bit of pink and poofy. And since these thing never cease to put a smile on my face, I wish to share them so as to hopefully put a smile on yours.

So there's a play on the classics. I'm personally diggin' the retro Disney princess dresses. As for the blue one in the Cinderella board, it was/is a real dress: Charles James “Petal” dress ca. 1951. Fun stuff, huh?!?!

And as a final note, what woman doesn't love an amazing pair of shoes... heck sometimes that's all I need to feel like a lady. Darn, now I wish I had worn heels. Ah well, listening to Disney music will have to suffice.
