This Is My Confession


Oh wow, I haven't posted since Thursday! I could've sworn I posted more recently than that! Hm. Work seems to be consuming my life. Gotta get money for Christmas presents! This year I've decided to only do my Christmas shopping on Etsy. It seems like such a great place for Christmas presents! No one will have the same gifts as you, plus you're supporting regular people who are creative! I would show you guys the awesome presents I have gotten so far, but unfortunately all my recipients know about my blog, so I can't reveal my presents yet.


dress/cosette :: shoes/payless :: fascinator/handmade :: necklace/vintage

I tried to take my photos in a new spot today, a more "Alaskan" location, if you will. Now you can see what the world looks like up here beyond my garage door! Snow berms and frozen lakes! The snow covered our ice rink and we haven't re-plowed it yet, otherwise you'd see it behind me.

Also, I have a confession to make...

...

I watched New Moon tonight, and I'm 100% team Jacob. It's true, fair readers. I'm not a Twilight freak or anything, and I haven't read all the books (my mom has though, haha! She started reading them as "research" because she's a librarian at a middle school). Maybe it's the Native blood in me, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how that Bella character chooses a pasty white, sickly looking, moody bloodsucker over a warm, tan, funny, happy, manly dude who changes into a WOLF. Are you kidding me? Haha, actually this is just coming back to me: When I was little I was in love with wolves. They were my favorite animal. I even sponsored a wolf because they were endangered. When my dad went to Alaska for a job interview, he and my mom brought me back a little wolf stuffed animal, which I named "Wolfie" (I also had a snake named "snakey" and a duck named "ducky." I wasn't really creative with my stuffed animal names...). That is all to say, that I think It was destined for me to be on team Jacob.

you look so pretty! and the snow is gorrrrgeous! we only have a few flurries here and there.

Jacob is really the most well-developed character out of the entire series. ANNNND he was much more charming than Edward in the movie!

i am dying to post all of my christmas loot, but i have the same problem ... too many of my recipients read my blog too!

I adopted a wolf as a child, too! They were my favorite.

Tieka, Selective Potential said...

Wow, you have LOTS of snow! It looks pretty though! Ours is kind of dwindling down again, but we're supposed to be getting more. Love the outfit too! Glad I'm not the only crazy in the snow getting shots ;)!

The Daily Fashionista said...

Your picture is so pretty. I love your outfit. I wish we had snow, but it just never happens in southern Virginia. Just sleet and rain (you know, the dangerous stuff).

Sydney said...

First off, your outfit is adorable. Secondly, I am totally with you on team Jacob. As I told my friends that metaphor Edward makes in the first movie about Bella being his brand of heroin was not a metaphor.

Meg said...

love the new backdrop, it's beautiful (and so is your outfit!)

Stéphanie said...

Nice outfit!

I've never watcher nor read anything of twilight.. I don't know why everyone likes it.

haute.teapot said...

i love the snowy background! however that red garage door is so vibrant, either way your photos look great. and etsy is an absolutely fabulous idea!

Joey said...

haha, I don't get how there is even a competition, right? Jacob totally kicks Edwards ass... I'm embarrassed that I'm so passionate about this, but I've even found myself bickering with my 13 year old cousin about who is better....oh the shame!

...and of course, you look adorable, love that top!

Sophie said...

that fascinator is lovely!

I'm truly not a fan of the twilight
books but if I have to say
I don't mind Jacob's character.
He actually seemed real
compared to the other characters.
I read all of the books and
was pretty disappointed to be honest.

Erin said...

promise I'm not a twihard either, but team jacob all the way! (if only to spite my sister, who for some ungodly reason loves Edward...) :)
and also gorgeous outfit and love your hair!

Etsy is by far the best place to buy gifts. This year I'm only giving homemade gifts or gifts made by crafters with far more crafting skills than me.

Lovely Dress!

Jacob is my homeboy :)

Michelle said...

You look adorable! although...cold. brr. I can't imagine there being that much snow, everyone in Austin freaked out because it was supposed to snow and then it didn't at all. Of course, they were all still freaking out because it was 50 degrees outside...Matt & I were driving around and there was this chick walking and wearing a huge thigh-length puffer coat. It was not THAT cold by any means. Texans are funny.

I actually kind of hate Twilight with a fiery passion, but the guy who plays Jacob is quite the little hottie, much better looking than RPatz.

jayne said...

New Moon was pretty entertaining I must admit. I used to be Team Edward, but at the end of NM, when edward is in his frilly little sweater and Jacob is shirtless...uhh obvious choice here. You're right, Edward is disgustingly pale, its like he never recovered from that Spanish Influenza lol, meanwhile Jacob looks so alive

Lara said...

I am Team Jacob too although not because Edward is pale (my husband is as pale as they get!). I just thought he was a heck of a lot nicer and not as creepy as Edward!

I love the shirt you have on here. I have been so into florals lately. Maybe because it is too snowy here!

Diana said...

that pretty!!
luces muy tierna!
:D

Alita Claudia said...

pretty skirt dear :D love ur hair, it's perfect!

daisymay said...

You look bloody freezing in that first pic! lol! I am totally team Jacob I really don't understand how anyone could like Edward over hunky, sexy Jacob!! I really dont!

Joe_Siharath said...

la fille dans la forêt said...

Gorgeous!

missDTM said...

team jacob!!! i love him too.

great outfit. the snow is amazing out there...

Justice Pirate said...

I'm team Jacob too, but I would take Edward over Jacob the way they are described in the book. I just pity Jacob a bit. As far as which actor looks better, Jacob definitely should not have been better looking that Edward! haha. The books I read two months ago in two weeks and I was sooooo not into ever reading it but I am glad I did. The are really quite worth it. ;)

You look so very cold in these shots and your camera looks cold even the way the shots came out. Don't get sick for the sake of fashion. hehe. your health is much more important.

Delightfully Tacky said...

I won't get sick. And I'm not cold. Getting sick comes from viruses, not temperature.

Obvi Its Me said...

love the outfit? where did you get that dress? I saw a similar one on gojane.com awhile ago. cute!

Kallie said...

forget Bella, I want to date Jacob. She can keep her pasty-vamp man. ;)
ps-i really love all your outfits
