I usually have the tendency to not buy shirts-- it's not that I purposely avoid them because I look at them every time I go to a store. It's just that they're usually not long enough or I think, "Oh, I never wear jeans, so I don't need any fancy shirts." But now my mindset has changed after buying this amazing shirt with such pretty colors in it.. and I am determined to find shirts! Over the weekend I cleaned my closet out and I have a countable amount of shirts left now. I never realized how many times I just wore a white or black tank top to school then stuck a pretty jacket or cardigan over it. I never dressed myself up based on my shirt; usually my shirt was the last thing I put on! I wasn't even aware that I did that! But now that warm weather is coming I can't do that every day. My poor white tank top already has a hole in it. because of love, not abuse, of course! heh heh.. I think it's that I want to find shirts with interesting shapes and patterns, like this one. I love the pattern on it and it a) has fun colors b) could match with lots and c) has ruched sleeves and puffy, pointy shoulders! It's interesting and a little different. I guess it depends on what kind of fabric it is, too-- I can't stand silk or thin clingy materials. Is there anything you tend to ignore buying for your closet, whether you were aware of it or not?

So, mom took lots of pictures today! We went from the brick wall to the red chair by the lake and to the wall again! The light was sort of weird. As you can tell, the weather here is still mushy and gross. Our yard is all muddy still even though it hasn't rained in days! Plus, it's going to rain again tomorrow! Ahhh well, at least Mr. Buggabug Von Bandito (my prized beetle bug! I name everything) got his windshield wipers fixed. Apparently now he has automatic ones, so that's a wonderful surprise I never knew about! Before, whenever I wanted to wipe rain off from the windshield, I had to push the little lever down. Every time. It was a chore, haha. So this is going to be like the most luxurious thing ever and I actually can't wait for it to rain. Even though the weather here is icky, I hope everyone else is enjoying pretty spring weather and I hope to join you all on that bandwagon soon!
