sailing off into summer!

Today was the aftermath, 

other teachers & admin kept asking me if I was going to write up the students
for their post it note prank

If I am that type of teacher then I need to retire right now, life it too short.

It was been a crazy year, but an awesome one!

Now I am sailing off into summer,
today was my last full day of school, finals start tomorrow {hope my students are studying!} 




What I Wore: glasses- Midnight Blue Sinclairs Warby Parker, top- GAP, cardigan- from blogger swap, skirt- thrifted from store in Vermont, flats- KMart 




Loving this new polish! Revlon "Smoldering" reminds me of a summer camp fire, 
I am so ready for summer fun!

the end of the school year... shenanigans

My day started feeling like this:
{found this in the copy room in the teachers lounge,
I guess I am not the only one feeling like this with finals}

During my 7th period Honors Biology class today this message was left for me:
I was thinking, "Okay..."

& then my students proceeded to each hand me a post it note
while walking by my desk during hall duty...

Then they asked me to look at my car,






Yup, it happened
I was post-it note pranked. 

45 mintutes later and with help, over 100+ post it notes were taken off. 
Not including the 30 that are now in the grass & woods...
& the one that the fiancé found while opening the trunk to pack...

What I Wore: glasses- Rivet & Sway pink punchines, necklace- Rainy from Spike The Punch, top- LC Lauren Conrad for Khols, belt- JCrew, pants- Cynthia Rowley {via TJMaxx}, cardigan & flats- Target, bag- vintage thirfted Coach





Tomorrow is my last teaching day before finals start, 
this year has been crazy yet amazing. 
I am going to miss these students! {even though they are a pain!}
My first & only "Ms. Basilone" class since I will be married in August! 
It's been real.

It is not even summer yet...

After school these days is full of riding in the back of the car keeping the door closed so we can move furniture in our little cars... 
Are we all moved in yet?!

striped chambray, closeted chaos

This is the chaos that is my closet currently. 
Quite an eclectic mixture of stuff. 
More than half of my closet is moved into our new house. 
I am left wearing any random combos I can come up with.
But who am I kidding, I do this anyways,
Story of my life, actually.

Quick closet update!

I also scored this awesome lamp at GoodWill today for $8!
Amazing! 

& yes I do have a microscope...

judge me. I am a scientist after all...

cold shoulders

The open studs on this shirt leads to a cold shoulder day,
in other news, I also have a cold. 
My immune system is just shot these days.

{that is how I met my fiancé in case that sounds crazier than it really is...
okay maybe it is quite crazy...}

8 dresses later... my sister's grad party!

I had a serious, "NOTHING to wear" panic for my sister's grad party. 
I tried on at least 8 and ended up donating all of them. 

When I found one I was like, "Okay I will wear them with my TOMS black wedges"
Only to realize they have been moved to the house already. 
This will be a long couple of weeks.

Wasn't the only one who took hours to get ready...





What I Wore: glasses- c/o Firmoo, dress- Target, sandals- Sam & Libby for Target, bag- vintage Coach, lips- Maybelline "Fuschia Flash"



This bag is beautiful! 
Still can't believe I got it for free!

Had lots of fun celebrating!

Such pretty women in my life

When in reality this is what it looks like...






The fiancé & my youngest sister were matching!
