Me-Made-May ’15 – Week Five
Day 25 Dress: First Days of Spring This is possibly the most irritatingly smug pictures anyone ever took of me, and I find it unbelievably funny. Sorry guys, I was tired after a long car ride and gave zero fucks that evening. 😀 (I think I figured out what bothers me about this dress, though:…

Remember my huge bag of goodies from Serbia? My friends Angela and Teodora gave me lots of delicious sweets and snacks plus six balls of yarn as a thank you for letting them stay at my place for a while. Obviously I ate all the sweets in like a week. The jam was used for…
