Moonlight and Love Songs Will Never Be Out Of Date
10 Things That Will Never Be Out of Date:
1) Finishing off an LBD with pearls
2) Rolling down your car windows in the summer and blaring road-trip tunes
3) Spontaneous photo shoots with friends
4) Receiving flowers for absolutely no reason at all
5) Coffee
6) Tea
7) Staying up with a bestie 'til way past your bedtime, laughing the night away
8) Planning vacations you'll never be able to afford
9) Gene Kelly's dancing skills (and handsome smile!)
10) Reading a good book while curled under a blanket watching snow in the moonlight :)

Stars in My Eyes
Well I'm actually posting a pic from Monday night *quelle horreur* This is the outfit I wore to the Film Festival here at school...which was so much fun! Got to see my lovely (and talented) boyfriend win Best Actor, and one of my dear friends win Best Picture! Plus, walking down a red carpet appealed to my inner drama queen ;) Changing subjects altogether, I'm really in the mood to go dancing!!! While I was hanging out during rehearsal tonight, I heard our band playing some darling Big Band music that just made my feetsies itch...alas...Perhaps tomorrow (weather permitting) I'll wear some swingin' style clothes :)

Under a Blanket of Blue
It's no secret that I have a deep love for all things Gene Kelly, Louis Armstrong, and Ella Fitzgerald (to just name a few.)...so, as I am sitting here writing this blog, I can't help but get caught up in the charming lyrics sung by Ella and Louis. Seriously, they have an album of duets and it makes me so happy! :)
Just read these lyrics and tell me you aren't enchanted and wish you had a sweetheart to sit under a blanket of blue with! (Well, I don't...Cambria does.)
Anyways, go ahead and read it! And then, I know you will want to listen to it, and then buy it. Which I would recommend. You won't regret it :)
Under a blanket of blue
Just you and i beneath the stars.
Wrapped in the arms of sweet romance
The night is ours.
Under a blanket of blue
Let me be thrilled by all your charms
Darling, i know my heart will dance
Within your arms.
A summer night's magic, enthralling me so.
The night would be tragic, if you weren't here to shareit my dear,
Covered with heaven above.
Let's dream a dream of love for two,
Wrapped in the arms of sweet romance,
Under a blanket of blue.
mmmm, are you in love? :)
In other news, today was chilly. *sniff* yesterday was so beautiful! I sat outside all day long and even burned my cheeks slightly (I don't even care! I'm just so pleased my skin doesn't glow in the dark now!)
So, I wore my comfy boyfriend sweater that I bought at Goodwill last summer. It's so roomy and lovely... the perfect medicine for a chilly morning! :)
Also, that skirt is Cambria's, but I love it so much and wear it a little too much... I might have to invest in my own one of these days... :) Oh, the joys of roommate sharing!!! :)
Love,
Jess

She's a happy girl strolling...
Hi gang!
I wore this outfit dancing the other night and I lahve it! You've seen this skirt before, but it's one of my favorites! I got it at this darling vintage shop downtown...actually, now that I think about it, most of my outfit was thrifted. Those fabulous red shoes and that darling belt...all thrifted. Man, I love saving money! :)
Anyways, swing dancing the other night was a total win...except oddly enough, I counted 5 other girls with red tennis shoes... Mine was a true Ked... but, still! Who knew red shoes were so trendy?
In other news, this weekend was... wonderful. I am in love with this past weekend... oh, and... THIRTEEN DAYS LEFT OF SCHOOL! whoa...
Later gator!
Jess
