Blogger Birthdays

September 22, 2011

I didn’t have cake for my birthday this year (I know, right?!), so when Cee organized a blogger clothing swap / birthday party for September babies, I knew I had to go. This time around, 8 girls chatted and swapped the afternoon away, along with several sweet and selfless husbands / boyfriends to help with photos.

    Oh my gosh, your blazer!! I was sure it was the new one from J.Crew that I have been SWOONING over but cannot justify buying (nearly $300… sigh!) and was shocked to see that yours is vintage!! I am so in love with the blue/green tartan – it’s so nostalgic somehow! This whole outfit is adorable! As are all you birthday girls!! So cute! xo.

    It was wonderful to see you on Sunday Jen, and David got so wonderful shots. I absolutely loved your outfit, I have now added a tartan blazer to my wishlist, but I doubt I’ll ever find one quite as lovely as yours!

    Jen,

    it was a true pleasure to meet you – finally! in truth, i’ve been keeping my eyes extra open and aware while walking the city streets hoping for a chance run into with you : ) happiness it happened and was such a grand day filled with cake, clothes and stellar chit-chat!!

    David was all kinds of colossal cool, in a room full of giggling girls he really knew how to maneuver and get the best shots. i really liked catching glimpses of you two quietly talking, you’re both the most gentle, heart in the right place people. i kinda really digged your shop in the boys department tip too…starting to incorporate my fashion sense in that direction thanks to you! i dare say, you are more beautiful in person and that’s a hard thing to imagine since in your photos you’re like out of this world gorgeous. i think the spirit coupled with the great charisma you embody makes anyone close by see it all the more. have a wonderful weekend Jen! xoox ♥

    Completely obsessed with your ensemble! Not only do these pieces look fabulous together but I can also create a million different outfits with each individual piece. About to go searching for that scarf…..

    Jen, I am so sorry that it’s taken me this long to stop by your beautiful blog- it’s honestly one of my favourites and it makes me so happy to see your posts! School has been getting steadily more intense, but I’m sure a routine will work our soon (fingers crossed!)
    You looked all kinds of adorable last weekend, those boots are seriously drool worthy! And I just love chatting with you and getting to know you better, you better believe that I’ll be taking you up on the photo shoot offer- that just sounds like the best way to spend an afternoon!
    Hope you had a lovely, cozy weekend! xx
