finally that really necessary rain has come! unfortunately, it had to be here the weekend i was scheduled to go pick up my bike! we were supposed to go to today to pick them up but because of the rain we had to postpone that until tomorrow. i am so impatient, i want it now! i really and i mean REALLY need to practice riding my bike especially if i want to be able to ride from the train to work. i'm not kidding when i tell you guys i was a freaking hot mess riding a bike the day we test rode. D didn't believe me that i hadnt been on a bike in over 12 years. "you never forget to ride a bike" he said...and i get it, you don't but the fear that comes with it, man, that fear is REAL. luckily i got the hang of it and the people at The Bicycle Stand in Long Beach are really great help! more on them later...
these photos were taken on Friday at work when there was a small break from the rain. my co-worker Iman of Polka Dots & Purses and i have teamed up to help each other with photos for our blogs! so yay! i'm going to actually try to put more effort into posting and i will feel much better about it since D always hates it when i make him take outfit photos, haha.
also, it was crazy socks day at work and of course i had to participate! litte miss mismatched socks lookin so good through my new jellies! heck yea i'm totally an adult wearing jellies! i dont really care that they're a page from my childhood memories, I LOVE JELLY SHOES. there. i said it. you can't really tell in these photos but believe me when i tell you that they are clear with glitter!! GLITTER! ahhh!!! i wish i could wear them everyday and not look like a total psycho.
okay, i've embarrassed myself enough, so i will leave you with that. haha

DeleteLove your clear jellies with funky socks :) Since two summers ago I am coveting so much a pair of clear jelly shoes ( I already have jelly sandals, but it's not the same :P), so I hope soon I'll be joining the adults with jelly shoes team. Oh! and that wall is a perfect photography spot!
ReplyDeletei was obsessed with jelly shoes as a kid and i can totally say the obsession has resurfaced! haha. i want jelly shoes in every color! i hope you get jellies soon damaris! they'll be so much fun for the coming summer. also, this wall is at my work! i hope people don't get too bored of it soon because i'll probably be taking photos here often hahaha
