my favorite thing about today #25

My favorite thing(s) about today were:
 Getting a cute new headband thing.  Not quite so excited about looking like the creepy girl from the ring. Seriously…I need some under eye concealer and some blush…STAT!
Craig doesn’t like it.  But I do.  So too bad for him.  He thinks I look like I’m wearing a tribal head wrap.  I told him tribal head wraps are awesome.  So there.  I went to the Portland Saturday Market on my lunch break because it’s right up the street from my work and that’s where I found this little beauty.  I actually went to get this nose ring:
yet again…total creepy picture.  sorry about that.
I’ve had a teeny tiny little diamond stud for 4 years now and I thought it was time for a change.  The jury’s still out on how I feel about it.  We’ll see.
My other favorite thing about today was that Craig called me on my lunch break and I told him that everybody on the blog loved the name Augustus and I told him about Chloe’s idea to use Gus as a nickname and how I thought it was the cutest thing ever.  Then…right after I got off the phone and went to the Saturday Market I saw that one of the vendors had Charlie and the Chocolate Factory playing on a laptop in their booth.  It’s completely an omen.  I’m positive.  I called Craig back and told him.  He said it was just a random coincidence.  I think not.
What was your favorite thing about today?

  10. i am not sure how i will look with your head wrap, but totally looks cute on you! my favorite thing about today is talking to my mom over the phone and how excited she was to open my little christmas package for her! oh, and also, i have a half day left of work then i’m off till the 3rd of january 🙂

  11. I like it! So cozy and sweet.

  12. umm.. so we just pulled up your page so i could show sean your headwrap that is the same as mine and he was like “wait, is that lauren? i thought it was you!!” haha. so maybe we are twins 🙂 and yeah, i liked going to the gym i was mostly just angry about it all. but i will get over it..eventually… oh and i like Oggie too! i think they are both cute names!

  13. I just have to say that I LOVE your headband thingie! Totally adorable.

    My favorite thing about today was definitely my iced milk chocolate campfire mocha. Yum!

  14. thanks for all the lovely compliments guys. at least i know i can trust you guys not to make fun of my “tribal head wrap” :). i just told craig the only reason he didn’t like it was because he’s not very fashion forward.

    also…if you guys are interested in where you can find your own head wrap, here’s a link to cristin’s etsy shop where you can find them. i wanted to buy one from her, but i’m not very brave about buying anything wearable online…i’m the see it/feel it type of shopper when it comes to all things wearable. anyway…here it is. she makes some really cool stuff.

  15. i totally wanna get one, but like i said am not sure how it’ll look on me. maybe when my hair gets longer… hmmm… why do i have a feeling that the significant other will think just like craig in case i purchase one of these?!

  16. Cute headband! I didn’t know you had your nose pierced – looks cute! I’ve had a nose stud for about 6 years now. For one weekend I wore a huge nose ring to freak everyone out, which was fun, but it didn’t look that great on me, so I went back to the stud.

  17. you look so cute! I love the headband! And I love your nose ring. I always wanted to get mine pierced but I was worried it would look weird on me. I think rings are cool 🙂

  18. I love the headband! Super cute!

    also, my favorite thing just happened! I pushed the button to follow your blog (I’m blogging from my phone) and my alarm started going off right after I did and I totally thought it was something you programmed to happen to the 100th follower…turns out it was time to get up for work! Haha. Silly me!

  19. lol you are hilarious Lauren! I love you! I love the headband! It looks uber cute on you! as well, I like the nose ring, ring 😀 I think you pull off anything you’re just way too adorable for something to not!

    and the dog name! lol Let us know when you finally know what you’ll be naming him…whether Augustus, ;), or something else!

    btw,Thank you so much for your comment on my post! It really means alot! As well, THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH for my beautiful card and earrings! You’re amazing! You made them both yourself?!
    ps. my cat loved the little popcorn things in the box…so she thanks you for her present too 😉

  20. Augustus always makes me think of the little mouse from Cinderella “Gus-Gus”! PERFECT name!!!
    PS-That headwrap is ADORABLE! Not tribal in anyway!

  21. Super cute headband! x

  22. Ahhhhhh, I always wanted a nose ring. My uber cool Dr. bestie has one…although I’m not sure if she has to take it out when she’s at the hospital? Hmmmmmmm. Love the headband!
