what I'm... wednesday
learning wordpress: This adventure started as a work project, but when my boss realized that it was quite complex he instructed me to abandon it. I'm a little stubborn though, and if I've started learning something I'm going to finish. I've got my books in tote and am studying up a bit every night. Plus, I've seen WordPress as a preferred skill in a lot of job descriptions, so it seems like a worthwhile skill to pick up. Yeah nerd hobbies!
eyeing silver d'orsay flats: How gorgeous are these? I'm mildly obsessed with metallic anything, and pointy-toe shoes in general, so these are a no-brainer need. I just grimace a little at the price tag, but I'm sure they'd get lots of wear. Plus Piperlime is participating in Ebates 15% back promo and I have Old Navy rewards to redeem. I think I just convinced myself I need them...
wanting to DIY j.crew rope bracelet: This bracelet is a $70 combo of twine and a carabiner. Yes, it's way cute, but on principle alone I could never justify it. If I can track down the appropriate closure, this DIY will hopefully be a breeze. (Granted, that's what I said about the 2/3 finished navy tulle skirt that's been in my craft closet the last 8 months...)
using sea salt texturizing spray: My curls are at their best when I've been in the ocean a lot and not washed my hair. Gross? Maybe, but it's true. Aquage's sea salt texturizing spray provides a gentler 'ocean hair' texture, and smells really lovely. The insane Indiana humidity and my hair aren't really friends, so this makes my obligatory curls much more pleasant :)
excited to make flour tortillas: I got a tortilla press for Mother's Day from Sherlock. Thanks Sherlock! I'm super stoked about it and have already made corn tortillas, but I want to venture into flour tortillas so I can make some hearty wheat ones :) Any tortilla making experts out there? I'm still figuring this business out, and flour ones seem somehow more complicated, probably because there's more than two ingredients.
polishing cnd 'cake pop': This color is so cute and springy! And I know I've raved before, but the creative nail design vinylux polish lasts forever and doesn't even need a basecoat. Obsessed.
Happy Wednesday & thanks for swinging by!
If you figure out how to make that J. Crew bracelet, let me know ;) xoxoxo danielle @ For the Love of Leopard
ReplyDeleteI certainly will :)
DeleteOh my gosh, my hair is totally the best after I swim in the ocean, too! That is so funny. Mine gets all wavy and looks perfect. I hate washing it away!
