Introducing: the bespectacled babe!

I told you a few weeks ago about me needing glasses- well the little ones finally arrived! And while I don't have to wear them constantly, I'm (at least for now) planning to really embrace the nerdy quirkiness :)

I got these cute designer boxes to go with them so I can tell them apart without opening the boxes 

I apologize for the crappy pictures, there was no photographer at hand today! Then again, the point wasn't to demonstrate how awesome I can look on film (cough cough), but to introduce these new cuties to you!

It's been confirmed...

I'm getting GLASSES!  I'm going to receive a pair of sort of wayfarer shaped glasses and a slightly more rounded pair just before Christmas. And I still don't quite know how to feel about it...
To swing my opinion to the positive side I took a look at some rather fine specimen sported by celebrities (since I can't show you mine yet). I really hope that my mind tricks will work (even though they're on me :P)

Perfect on her!

I <3 Chloe

If only I could pull that off...

and a bit of manspiration (sigh)

ah Johnny in his bespectacled perfection! :) That's what I was going for, but they didn't really have the same ones...I think I got close though!

As you may have gathered I really like nerdy retro specs :)

SEE you soon!

p.s. I think the mind games worked!

A graphic tee, nerdy glasses and summer life

My favourite navy-striped knit with my favourite shoes and a scarf. The ultimate feel good outfit!

Got them for a euro at the fleamaret. They're so tattered I have to re-glue them after each use, but I won't give them up 'till I find a VERY similar pair.

Playing the domestic goddess: made my boyfriend parmeggiano filled ravioli with a zucchini pesto sauce (not from scratch, unfortunately...I'm not THAT awesome).

I had to enlarge this one a lot, so the T-shirt would be visible. My friend bought it from a store in Sweden that specializes in graphic tee's. This one feature my favourite band, the beatles, getting all dolled up :P

I added these nerdy glasses to to the outfit once we went out...it just seemed appropriate (even though they're SO 2009. Heck fashion goes in cycles, they'll be back in a year or 20. Then we'll see who's cool)

A (not so) secret love of mine. Bowling shoes. I just find them so quirky and adorable. I need to own a pair (plus these made my tiny feet look SO big!)

It's been a busy few days. To recap: mini golf and cruising with my boyfriend and two of our mutual guy friends, bowling  and dinner double-date with our favourite friend-couple and coffee with one of my best mates (shout out to her!)

I'm facing a bit of a conundrum: I'm going to a fun-park tomorrow and I have no idea how to look put-together without a fashion fail (skirt up by the ears, anyone?). Accessorizing will be a problem since I don't want to wear a scarf and jam a ride and die (that would be no fun at all). If I don't figure something out, we're looking at a VERY boring clothes day. Ouchies.

Here's hoping ;)

OH, and btw the prank worked (as I predicted) from a distance. But I guess it became pretty obvious that my hair was pinned up :P I guess need to start practicing my hairdressing skills...
