What I Wore: Shirt (bought from Demure Muse), Jean Skirt (Old) and Black Flats (Famous Footwear)

Last weekend, I spent my birthday with The Boy, The Family and friends. Amongst many well-wishings and delicious food, I also got a special gift all the way from across the pond- Wish Magazine! I'm probably the last blogger to have gotten a copy, but it is so pretty! Its a magazine by the women behind the blogs Wishwishwish and Shiny Thoughts.

It has articles about fashion and blogs, stationary and pen-pals- You guys, does it sound like something I might like? Truthfully, I haven't gotten to read it all yet because I Quit My Day Job two weeks ago and, you guessed it, that two week notice is almost up! I've been getting my ducks in a row for what comes next (subbing, and several other projects). Wish Magazine's being saved as perfecting reading for in the tub, or reading outside as I collect myself from the busy-ness of the week! Have any of you gotten a copy of this magazine? What is your favorite article?


Speaking of reading outside- isn't this the cutest place? Sadly, its not mine, but belongs to my friend, Shannon. She has the best decorating style! (though there's no pictures of that since we stayed outside...). Another thing she has is a wooden picnic table! All picnic tables you see nowadays are plastic... more durable but somehow less nostalgic (though, I have to confess that the picnic table in our own yard is plastic). That is one thing I'll miss about summer; evenings spent outside, whether reading or eating or just sitting around a table.
