I also bought this Younique blue paisley print top when I bought my My  Michelle black and white embroidered top. On sale for $9. Cute eh? I instantly fell in love with the blue color.

Good thing whatever bowling tournament they were doing up in heaven stopped, heh. Ok, breakdown of today’s Family Dinner outfit, yeah, I’m dressed too early. We’re meeting …read more
