Sometimes I wonder why I hate everybody, and then I remember.. It's probably because of everything.

The Zara sale started at midnight tonight.  Of course I'm only now posting after purchasing the whole store.  I figure that I'd spend entirely too much money at first, only to return 75% of the items because of fit.  Which will put me at a much more reasonable amount spent.  I'm banking on this, so don't ruin it for me.  I love the online Zara store because a) Zara is not close to me b) I hate the mall lately c) Free shipping and free returns??!!! (mind you, it's super duper EASY free returns that are TRULY FREE).  I could go on and on about my love for Zara but I'm pretty sure you get the idea.  And it doesn't hurt that they have great clothes!

This is an outfit that I wore in the car on the way to Indianapolis.  I was looking for something comfortable for the long ride yet stylish and my cut out denim shirt was perfect.  The Soludos shoes are also a great comfortable shoe if you're tired of wearing flip flops all the time (as I mentioned two posts ago).

These photos were taken outside a stop we made in Ohio to meet my boyfriend's best friend from college.  It is this little market place that had everything type of food you can imagine and the best ice cream ever, Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams.  I had heard of it once in Cupcakes and Cashmere's blog (I believe she posted about the salted caramel flavor some time last year, tried it and it's delicious!).

The awkward moment when you realize that loves comes from the brain and erections come from the heart...

Some vacation snapshots from my visit last month to Indianapolis and Ohio.

Boyfriend and I tailgating. 90-100 degree weather doesn't make for many clothing options except to just wear minimal amounts of it. I didn't think I'd make it for 8 hours outside but I surprised myself and lasted (with the help of a giant floppy straw hat that I borrowed and wore later)

Warm-up lap during the Indy 500. It's one of those sports that I could never enjoy except now that I've had the experience, I kind of like it. But I still completely understand why one would think it's boring.

Visited Grandpa's Cheesebarn on the way back to NJ.. a sight I've always wanted to see since my first visit to Ohio back in September. There is only slight sarcasm in that statement as I was the one to suggest to my boyfriend we should go since he also hasn't been there and he's actually FROM Ohio and drives past it all the time when visiting his parents). I'm also surprised I fit in that little toy car. Should have paid to make it move.
