Mikey turned seven on Sunday. SEVEN. Additionally, my commitment to wearing jeans + (nearly) neon hasn’t wavered since Friday. Old Navy is making it easy to see my mission through. (I’m wearing the 3/4 length slub-tee in Brink-Pink with a classic ribbed tank-top underneath. It was all very Jennifer Beals.)

Hmm, perhaps I should take a wee trip to Old Navy. Though I do have to be careful with neon … my white pasty skin tends to reflect … and while a neon green shirt is fabulous, a neon green face is not.
And a Happy {belated} Birthday to the Birthday Boy!
Jules says
Oh, I agree! This one isn’t neon. It’s that bright pastel pink from the 80s. I was a little nervous wearing it, but I received several compliments on the color. Sadly, pink is my “power” color. I always get compliments when I wear it, which annoys me.

Mikey looks like he’s got blond highlights. Lucky (I’m saying this in my best Napolean Dynamite voice). I hope you guys had a great time yesterday!
Jules says
Haha! I’ll call you later today. :)

Gaaaaah! He’s such a handsome little guy! My oldest turns seven (?!) on the 26th of this month and it’s killing me. I’m trying to be cool about it, but that’s not happening.
Happy Belated Birthday, Mikey! And Happy Birth Day to you, Jules!

I love the birthday cake. It reminds me of a dessert that my mom makes with lady fingers, cream and dulce de leche… but onto clothes. I hear you about the pink. Apparently, it’s my “power color” also. I always get compliments when I wear hot pink, orangey pink and all sorts of other pink (except the pastel kind). I used to hate pink, but vanity has taken over and I now own quite a few pink tops.
Jules says
It’s a GIANT banana cream pie. I only put the whipped cream in the center for the candles and then added some to each slice individually after they were cut. I made the huge mistake of adding the whipped cream before cutting it for the 4/40 party and never mind how impossible it was to cut the cake through all that cream…by the time I did, half they whipped cream had melted! Lesson learned!

Happy Birthday to Mikey!! How cute!!
Also, I recently left a post in regards to you about your question about hair styling, I documented a short list of what I do on my wavy/curly hair. I hope that list helps!
Take care,
Kim
