I've got a fairly decent amount of vintage pins. Some I inherited, some are lucky thrift finds and a few were hard won on eBay. I hardly ever think to use them though. When I do remember though, I don't always want to put a hole in my clothing and sometimes I just can't figure out where to put it so it looks right. Occasionally I'll get it right, but mostly I just don't have the time to mess with it. 

My hair is super long right now and I find myself "bunning" it a lot. It's not my best look, but it's easy and cool and surprisingly in style this summer. I get a little bored with this look though, so I've been utilizing my pin collection to add a little interest to the look.

July 27- This is why I love Groupon- we get to try different places around without blowing our budget. Tonight we gave Joto's Pizza a try. It's been around for a loooooong time and is pretty well known locally. Can  I give a brief review? The pizza was good- nice crust and yummy cheese- and the restaurant staff was super nice. Julian loved that you can watch them throw the pizza dough and make the pizzas. Still, it's a bit of a drive for us and just doesn't quite top our closer favorites: Zeko's, Queen's & Paul's Chicago. If you're in the Pinellas Park area, it is worth checking out.
