the truck yard

This night we met up with two of our good friends
to try out a new restaurant/bar area named the Truck Yard. 

It's off of lower Greenville and, as you can see from pictures,
is filled with "junk"to inspire the feel of a true truck/junk yard.
Several food trucks were parked there, and oddly enough,
we enjoyed the cajun food truck the best. 

When I was house-sitting for my parents earlier this summer
I borrowed some clothes from my mother's closet.
Including an old Polo sweater vest. I paired it with a short, flowy skirt, 
and loved the way the two fit together. 
It's inspired me to wear more combinations just like it, 
which is why I paired this outfit together.

And chunky, caramel sandals/clogs/wedges? The perfect addition.

I'm really interested to document my outfits more and more
because now that Brad and I are married,  I have an almost nonexistent shopping budget.
Obviously, it will be difficult, and sad at times (and it's sad, that it's sad...I recognize this)
but I am excited to use what I have 
and be more inventive with my "old" clothing.

friends






























Brad and I just returned from our honeymoon last week and are feeling more settled into our lives in Dallas. I wanted to post some pictures of us with our friends over the last few months because these people are the reason Dallas has become a home to me and Brad, again. What would we ever do with out them, and how would life ever be as fun? I am sending out extra-large "thank you" vibes to all of our loved ones, and hoping they know how much they mean to us.

annecy

Photodiary of an evening in Annecy, France. JB had just arrived in Geneva, and we took off to Annecy for the evening. The city was packed with tourists and visitors, but still managed to be charming and wistful despite the crowd. I would love to go back when it's not so busy, but I'm not sure if that's ever the case...
