Look of the Day: Worlds Collide

Yesterday I had plans to meet Jen from the Look 4 Less and Kara from Fashionably Inspired at a couple of my favorite stores in the city. When I went to breakfast with my friend Jen I mentioned my plans for the day she decided she wanted to come along and see what this "other side" of my life was all about. Or as Casey said, my worlds were colliding.

I have known Jen and Kara for years long before any of us had blogs. Just over four years ago I joined a fashion forum that at one point became a big part of my life. Through that fashion forumI met many girls who became my friends in real life. Kara and Jen are just some of the friends I met and it is always nice to meet them in person. Kara and I are both fro California and have hung out a few times before, and even have some mutual not online friends. But it was my first time meeting Jen and she was just as sweet as I expected. It's strange when you have know someone online for so long, it's not weird when you meet them in real life. I was also able to meet Jen's husband Josh, who patiently waited while I shopped until we all dropped.

After our (or my) shopping excursion, Jen and Josh treated us to Irish Coffees at Buena Vista.
It was a really fun day and I am so happy my worlds have officially collided! I love all my friends online and in real life.

Worlds colliding: My Jen, Jen from Look 4 less, Kara from Fashionably Inspired and me!
And of course my outfit.
My Jen told me I looked like Ursala in my skirt.
Elizabeth and James skirt, Torn by Robby Kobo Tank top, Nordstrom shirt, and Cynthia Vincent for target sandals.
Yay for Kara, Jen, and Jen. And of course for my worlds colliding!!
