I didn't want to turn this into a journal, but just once. So, money's a problem lately, I don't know if I can afford anything I've planned. The wedding now seems so far off (and almost impossible), amidst other problems like plane tickets/hotel for my defense in PL/CZ, internship, car, appropriate work clothes, and a possible relocation. Will I be able to sell me jewelry? I may need a temporary job or something after my defense, god knows. 

My Kids

All five of my children are photographers. This is them on our Prague vacation last year. From left Claudia, Anaïs, Lourdes, Dorian, and Joaquin. From crewcuts.com

Yosemite

Yosemite Falls...folky acoustic guitars, khaki tents, campfires and marshmellows, woodland moose paraphernalia, red flannels, tinned beans, buckwheat pancakes and natural syrup, salmon cakes, honey beer, and always talking about lovin' America.

Navajo stylin'

Ralph Lauren I will never pay the amount of money you are asking for these beautiful garments....I have been wanting a Navajo poncho and/or wrap sweater for two years, but these are just waaaay overpriced, I'll get mine from the original source.

WPA posters

These Depression-era posters hit the nail on the head. Download here: http://readymade.com/article/poster_children/P2/

Bridesmaids

Oh how I love yellow, especially those deep golds and mustards, like an Almalfi lemon. This goddess style dress would be lovely with some nice jewelry in apricot, cream, and gold enamel and some embellished sandals. Dress from Anthropologie.com.

Lilly Pulitzer

I'm not usually a fan of her clothes, but these could be quite cute. All from the Lilly Pulitzer online shop.
