blaccents.

after all of the bright neon accessories i've been donning recently (in the form of my YoT watch), black actually felt refreshing. a friend secretly bought this necklace for me while we were shopping at urban outfitters in cali. it's something i never would have bought for myself, but i love it.

you may have noticed that i haven't been wearing nail polish lately. with all the girls in the house, mini-he's been
wanting evvrything we have...
nail polish, bracelets, long hair, dresses...ugh.
so until he gets over this copy-cat phase, i'll be laying low

tomorrow will be an all day affair at the beach...kind of a farewell to my nephew who will be going off to college next month. my brother-in-law will be getting there at the crack of dawn to secure a good location. i really want to sleep in, but i guess we'll be heading out early as well to get good parking.

what are you doing this weekend?

foxy brown wanted to play.
i was lucky to get a few shots without her.

That black bead necklace is very pretty. I love how you pulled off those shorts. That cut makes my legs look like stick figures. But they look so comfy and I always wish I could wear them.
Too funny about your son. My son gets like that sometimes but then he himself realizes that boys don't wear that and gives up.

I agree after lotsa color, a toned down color scheme is a refreshing palette for the eyes. Ahhhh...Variety the spice of Life!

Awww, you should let him play with nail polish :) My cousin used to come over to play and he wanted to be just like me, so my mom would let him wear my spare bathing suit and took his short hair and made a tiny little top-ponytail with it and we played with barbies heh. He's still a totally manly man now that he's grown up. It's harmless good fun for kids, just like how when I was little I used to play with toy guns and sling shots. And hey, how awesome would an old photo of him painting his fingernails neon pink be for blackmail at his wedding? Hehe...

Tara said...

That necklace is so pretty...your friend does good work :)

Jenny said...
