OOTD: Cruise Dinner


I haven't done OOTD is soooo long. I was going thru my pictures from my cruise and saw a couple pictures I could use. They are so-so, but I'm trying to push out some posts so here it goes.

Pretty much everything on the cruise was uber casual. I mean it's vacation right? But for the dinners it was a nice change of pace to dress up. And I love dressing up! They had dress code rules, but definitely weren't sticklers for them. For example, a couple at our table would wear sweats and a wife beater. I mean SERIOUSLY? C'mon! 

Dress: Target $30
Shall: Forever 21 $18

April Update

photo stolen from my friend, but I doubt he reads this anyway lol


I'm back from vacation and back into the real world. The chilly Chicago world. Sad face. I had such a great trip with plenty of interesting people and stories. I will have a post with pictures and all the good stuff later. I have sad news that my blogging frequency will be a lot less. I've been super proud that for 3 whole months I was able to put up a post every single day. GO RACHAEL! But that is about to change.

I recently got this amazing new job downtown that is full time! ( and those are hard to get now a days) But with school and working 40 hours a week plus the commute time...that leaves my blogging time cut down majorly. I will do my best to post, promise. RetroUrbanRainbow is still my baby.

Miami, you have defeated me!



I finally made it to Miami! WOO! Yes, excitement was in order. But I'm sooooo not a fan of Miami. The people, the traffic and the TRAFFIC!!! Decided to spend the afternoon at South Beach, well we sat bumper to bumper looking for parking for over an hour. It was terribly stressful. And the fact that my friend was angrily yelling at traffic was only adding to my stress. Sheesh! I'm pretty close to getting an ulcer from this damn city. No one stops at stop signs and the assface in front of us would stop the car to flirt with women and just sit there. I beeped for minutes at a time, but the doushebag just remained flirting in his car. There was so much traffic I couldn't around. AAARRRGGGG!

Well tmrw, we get on the boat which I'm super stoked for. :)

Laters!

Hiatus?

Hi everyone!
So my spring break is finally tomorrow. I could not be more excited and a little nervous. I just want it ALL to go smoothly without a single hitch. I'm going to be taking a road trip to Miami with my best friend, then we get on a cruise for 4 nights and return home to Chicago. I have wanted to take a road trip since I was 17 and 8 years later I finally can. ha. The picture above is from our ship, Carnival Imagination. I'm stoked it has a mini water park on it. Wild! Majority of my trip I won't have internet, which is a bummer. But maybe a little break might be good. I will try to most and give you guys stories of my adventure, but in all honesty in won't be until I return. I promise to take TONS and TONS of pictures.

My goal is to have this who road trip segment, not so much a mini series but me yapping and taking pictures.

Hello, I'm part dork and part nerd. :)
