Whatever's Lovely: outfit // i'm back

What the what?? Why has is been SO long since I've blogged? I've seriously missed this and am super excited to get back to doing something that I love! The past 5 months have been just a little insane. As some of you may know, I was dealing with some pretty painful back issues along with a lot of really huge life changes/decisions. But, I am so ready to get back on the horse and start some serious postin'!

So, on to the important stuff...FOOD. This past week a new bakery and coffee shop opened up near my home in Ellicott City called Shilla Bakery. So, obviously I went for the grand opening. Let's get one thing straight-I am fairly picky when it comes to bakeries. I mean, most are just okay, right? Um, not this one! The inside was beautiful and they had samples of almost everything they make! Everything was inexpensive and the coffee was pretty fantastic. Definitely going there again and again.

Okay, outfit details...black, white, and red. Kinda my thing. I figured I'd start my return to blogging with an Allie classic. I've also been loving wearing my gold sandals with just about everything. They are super comfy and add a little shine and pizazz to every outfit I wear! You may also have noticed that my hair is just a little different. I got 10 inches chopped off since the last time I blogged. I was ready for a change-go big or go home!

So, after the bakery and coffee shop extravaganza I went to the Howard County Fair. It's the only time of the year I get to feel like a country girl and I embrace it. There is pretty much a contest for everything you can think of. Food, flowers, clothing, photography, lamb wool (I'm not joking...). It's so great.
