double duty.

beach. shave ice. shopping. tv. wine...in that order.
spent yesterday with mini-she and her friend since they are on spring break. it's days like these when i need pieces that can carry me throughout the day with just a few minor adjustments. this tunic/dress is one of those versatile pieces. with a few straw accessories and pretty sandals, i'm ready for the beach.
check back tomorrow to see how i kick it up a notch.

i finally convinced myself that i needed an ipad of my own. we have the original one floating around our house that everone shares, but the ipad3 with camera and video is pretty awesome. so, i've jumped on the instagram bandwagon and found that
it's photography on a whole new level. help me find you by
leaving your username. i can be found at: @rockoomph
and, as if that wasn't enough to keep me busy,
i finally registered on pinterest.

i still have no clue as to what i'm doing in both places,
but i just keep pinning and taking pictures.
hope to find you along the way!

How fun to have a day with your daughter! I love those days! This tunic is so cute and I love the highlighter yellow belt with it. The straw hat is a nice springy touch too. I want an IPad too. Patrick has one but I don't like to share it. Plus it is for his work so I can't play on it. :-(
