It's all about the accessories. I kept it easy for Ailyn's graduation because it was hotter than Hades this day! We are so proud of her! Congratulations little sister!

Commencement!
Graduation -- woohoo! My college career was built on...
5 friendships with incredibly smart and beautiful women
4 Spring Breaks traveling through Washington DC in 2008; Costa Rica in 2009; Hong Kong & Macau in 2010; and most recently, Mexico in March of 2011!
3 Flunk Days filled with revelry and general tomfoolery, and I definitely took advantage of the SuperBounce and inflatable Laser Tag that appears yearly. Flunk Day is Knox College's much beloved Spring Carnival
2 majors--Integrated International Studies and Modern Languages.
All of those friendships, experiences, and studies have earned me 1 extremely expensive diploma.

P.S. Under this gorgeous fashion statement of a black gown, I'm rocking J.Crew's Delaney Eyelet Dress in alabaster (originally $128, but on sale + extra 30% off for about $50) with an old favorite--a pair of bright pink Enzo Angiolini peeptoes. You can catch a glance of them here.

No More Pencils, No More Books...
...No More Teachers' Dirty Looks!
On Thursday, my family and I celebrated my graduation. Woot! I'm pretty much a happier and nicer person now that school is out. What time is it? Summertime.
When I first discovered this blue dress I was a little confused. Non-traditional, wavy "wings" threw me for a loop. However, this deep blue color sold me, and I envisioned that a belt would make for an interesting, cool look. Pockets would've been great for this dress, alas, no pockets means no silly string. Next time....oh wait, that means a PhD? Scratch that.

Oh, hi Ailyn.
Below is a photo of my dad. I was watching him during the ceremony and saw that 60% of the time he was playing on his iPhone. Needless to say, I was jealous. If this dress had pockets I, too, could be enjoying a little Max & the Magic Marker. FAIL.
