Illustrations, coffee, and Birmingham

Today, I went to college with Zachary. Since I'm finished for the semester and he only had to go to class one day this week, I got to live the day like a UAB student.

I had Starbucks. (mmmmm)

I walked past amazing buildings on campus.

And we even got to do a mini fashion shoot with my phone. 

Purple Shirt - Gap

Grey Cardigan - LOFT (old)

Black Leggings - H&M (ripped by me)

Black Sandals - TEVA

This outfit was absolutely perfect for today. I was comfy and felt cute. However, it was a little hot in the cardigan. I just wish it would stay cold forever but I guess that's what I get for living in Alabama. 

I love my ripped leggings tho. Since I accidentally ripped them with a buckle on a pair of boots, I decided to rip them a little more. With time they should look really distressed. (woot)

Anyways, as for the rest of the day, this is what I did:

This is my newest illustration. Since Zach had to be in classes, I sat in a cafe on campus and got creative. I'm insanely proud of her. Isn't she beautiful?

She needs a name. Help :)

Bad Wolf.

This is one of my everyday outfits. I wore it when Zachary and I had to go buy chicken wire the other day....Yes, I said chicken wire. I'm working on a giant White Queen head for a Mardi Gras Parade. So, I had to use chicken wire as the base to sculpt it.

Yup. That's what I got for now. It looks like Squidward's house.....I'm not giving up just yet.

Anyways...This outfit is made up of all thrift finds...just like all of my other outfits. My wolf shirt is actually from Wal-Mart. Yes. I said it....I'm not that ashamed..but I think it worked. It was only 3 bucks so it wasn't a loss at all. 

My rings and my Wonder Woman mug are my very favorite things about this outfit. Also, I want to share a secret to everyone out there with red hair that fades after the first time you wash it. One of my friends gave me this amazing shampoo called Watercolors. Basically its just like washing your hair with  hair dye that gets your hair clean and refreshes your color. It's the most amazing thing I've ever put in my hair. It leaves your hair silky also so it's not damaging. 

If you try it out let me know what you think. It comes in a ton of different colors also.

Also, the name of the post is a tip of the hat to all you the whovians out there.

Started by a Rumor

This is Zachary.

Yeah. This is my boyfriend, best friend, companion, driver, co-photographer, & love. A typical day with us usually involves talking about super heros, watching some form of the 29 tv shows we have started and have yet to finish, eating candy, meowing....., writing, drinking coffee, playing cards, visiting Unclaimed Baggage, and going on photography adventures. We are pretty much the same person. Have you ever heard of a perfect relationship? No? Well we have one.

We first met during the summer of 2010. I was a Sophomore at a local junior college, and he was a Freshmen. I was at the college from 7am-10pm everyday. I opened the college coffee shop, where he would stop by for coffee and innocent flirting. After work I would go to classes from 11-5, and then at 5 I would make my way to theater practice, where he was on scholarship. So lets just say we seen each other everyday. After I graduated, I stayed with my job at the coffee shop and he still had a year of school to go until he transferred. 

In the spring of 2012, after almost two years of making goggly eyes at each other, we both participated in our theater departments production of Fiddle on the Roof. He was Perchick and I was Grandmother Tzeitel (yes, I was a dead old woman). Our group of friends in the theater started this whole "#rumortuesday" thing on twitter. So obviously a rumor got "started" that we were dating/serenading each other/whatever else people could say to make us come together. This led to us flirting over text messages and on our breaks at practice. About a week or so later, the rumor was true.

Now I'm sitting here on his bed blogging and he's standing at his mirror writing movie ideas on it. He has now transferred to a college that is 2 hours away and comes home every week. He is majoring in mass communication with a minor in film. I'm majoring in graphic design and minoring in marketing. 

We might just take over the world together. 

As long as I'm with him, bring it on.
