the craziest easter ever yo!

today is easter. i have no clue what that's really all about since i was raised to fear catholicism. what i do know is this:
some people think that easter is like a knockoff version of the pagan holiday eostre, which is basically a celebration of the fact that it's fucking nice out finally.
also, easter is a day set aside for feasting on all the cute baby vegetables that grow in spring.
for these two reasons alone, i am down with easter.
i really wanted to wear a frilly, pink, layer-cake of a dress just like when i was five, but i didn't feel like that would be received so well at our yearly family easter dinner, so i wore this instead:

-blue rose-garden print cardigan from forever 21
-black babydoll tee from h & m
-the only pair of skinny jeans that actually fits over my ass from marshalls
-and some fake-ass native american fringey boots, also from forever 21
i topped it all off with a spritz of victoria's secret double body mist in candy baby, which smells just like marshmallow peeps and is therefore the official scent of easter.
the day started off perfect. i downed a few glasses of wine, ate about a pound of caviar, and was just sitting down to a fabulous looking easter dinner, when wham! the inevitable drama of being with my family came to what i just might call an all-time high (or low, depending on how you look at it)
seriously, words cannot do justice to the shitstorm that went down in my house on this holiest of days. one thing i love about my family though is that after everything was said and done with, we all ate cake and laughed hysterically about it.
now that's what i call a good old-fashioned holiday!

love always

I. NEED. THAT. BODY. SPRAY!!

Anything that smells like candy, especially PEEPS is alright in my book.

I will be at VS tomorrow to pick some up.
