Tassel Me Pretty

Zara Tee Over Top Shop Tassel Tank - Vintage Necklace (Gram's) - David Yurman Watch

I've posted very few of my outfits on tumblr thus far, but I recently decided if I can get my FBCWBF to snap photos, it might be fun to frolic and document the clothes that I choose so carefully (I'm a total impulse buyer) and love so much (I want new clothes more than I want new friends). Last weekend, my family came into town to see The Book of Mormon on Broadway. Since we caught the matinée, these relaxed boyfriend jeans with the playful tassel top were a perfect pick. My mom, who rarely compliments my more adventurous picks (she's a matchy doll), even loved the layered look of the two tops.

Since my two brothers were along for the ride, comfort was key. The rug rats are a bit younger, and sometimes require a little chasing around. Plus they're from the 'burbs, they're the ones holding up traffic to listen to the guy beating his Tupperware drums or the girl yelping about the impending rapture on street corners.

After the show, mom surprised us by taking us bowling in Times Square. I spent about five minutes totally impressed that she surprised us and then walked in, realizing that if I ever received this as a surprise again, I would cry my eyes out (and not in a how-did-you-know-I've-always-wanted-this-exact-thing way). But honestly, as much as I despise the craziness of the hottest, most congested area of Manhattan, I have to admit we had a blast sweating our bums off and swearing at the pins.

Post-testosterone overdose (bowling is a sport, right?!), mom and I decided to pop in a few stores in Soho. Bored with her obsessing over skinny mom outfits, I snapped this photo to impress my FBCWBF with my swagg. I'm always shy about sending him pictures of myself, but when he caught me instagraming it on my phone, he asked me to send it to him. Of course, I'm concerned about those MTV commercials that talk about viral sexting, but hey, a little midriff never hurt anyone. And to put it bluntly, there's no Weiner in belly button!
