While Lar is taking set design courses (so jealous), I’ve spent this month taking an accelerated statistics course for my masters program. Needless to say it’s not fun – but it is time consuming! So I’ve spent more time doing school work than taking outfit photos and blogging. My apologies, dear readers!
In place of an outfit post, I thought I’d do a short blurb about my Instagram photos. If you don’t follow me already, you can find me at AsianCajunsCath. No, Lar doesn’t have an account yet seeing as she uses an old brick-of-a-Nokia phone, but hopefully one day she’ll join the world of smart phone users!
1. Outfit of the day close-up: necklace from a clothing swap, Michael Stars t-shirt, Michele watch, J.Crew skirt (that hasn’t held up very well – Instagram evidence here)
2. These gorgeous sparkly tops are actually reflective bike vests made by Vespertine and found at Houndstooth Road in downtown Decatur.
3. Troy and I ended being pants twins the other day. His are from H&M and mine are Forever 21. I’m always worried that we’ll end up like those couples that dress the same. Thank goodness I didn’t wear my Chuck T’s that day! My heels are from Madewell via Shopbop, in case you were curious.
4. Bacon Cashew Caramel Corn at Colt & Gray – an amazing restaurant Troy and I found on our last night in Denver.
5. Still trying to drink green juice as often as I can. I try to make a double batch each time so I can have one jar later in the day or the next morning.
6. Still very happy with chevron stripes in my closet. I’m itching to do another chevron project like this watercolor.
7. Boo Radley, my parent’s dog, joined us on our picnic at Stone Mountain last month.
8. I don’t usually wear a lot of pink, but the other day I ended up wearing nothing but pink accessories: Unleashed espadrilles from Shopbop, my zebra scarf from a boutique in Edinburgh and an old J.Crew necklace.

Dearest Lar,
I always think it’s so funny that you work on computers all day and yet have no desire to get a smart phone! I fear these set design classes will just make you even more of a luddite – I mean, the studio doesn’t even have the wifis!
I miss you on Skype too! I demand that you write me a detailed email everyday 😉 As part of your course are you going to go see a play this week? Remember when we went to see Matthew Bourne’s Play Without Words at the Festival Theater? I loved that play. . . without words!
Is it nice to be back in a learning environment? As much as I bitch and moan about statistics and homework and tests, I’m still happy to be back in the classroom.
Let me know when you have time to chat this weekend. We definitely have to Skype on our birthday!
xoxo, Cath
haha! i love that lar uses an old cell. i’m guilty of that too.
one day i do want to get an iphone. they are just so expensive for monthly use.and for the very little that i am on a phone i find it silly. but, maybe one day.
Hehehe! Diane, you would not believe how old my phone is: it’s a Nokia from when Matt’s parents’ lived in Tanzania about five years ago! It texts and calls, and that’s about it.
I totally agree with you about the iphone. I want one too, but they are even more expensive here.
Matt just found me an inexpensive smartphone on ebay, so at least I’ll be able to text more easily — and read the news on the bus 😉

yeah mine is about 5 years old too.it’s a basic flip phone. the 1 button barely works. and i don’t have texting on it.long story. it’s not really the price of the phone, but the monthly plans. eeekkk! i just can’t see the sense in it. but, they are neat. i look at my mom’s iphone and drool.
Hi Cath!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE that pic of Boo Radley. It makes my heart smile with a full set of teeth (eew) every time I see it!
So Matt is trying to figure out how to set up instacam on my windows phone, but you might need to set up an instagram account for me first.
Miss you so very much! Can’t wait to catch up this weekend!
xoxox,
Lar
