My Week in Pictures 4.0


First off I want to say that I'm a little sad that Picnik is gone.  I've used the photo editing program ever since I started this blog and I'm now on the lookout for an easy program without spending a lot of money. If anyone has any suggestions or advice, please let me know.  

1  Never thought that I would buy a pair of leopard loafers, but I've been on a hunt for a while ever since I saw a pair in a magazine.  Didn't want to spend a lot on them, so I waited to get a 20% coupon for Kohls and then snagged me a pair!
2  Finally started my color block project.  Don't worry I'll be posting it once it's done.  I can't wait.
3  These leopard loafers needed two pics this week.  When the weather finally cooled down, I paired it with some bright blue pants.  I hope my fashion blogger friends approve?!
4  Happy - want a treat?! 
5  Finally doodled up a quick cartoon for my friend Haley of http://www.thezenofmaking.com/ after posting a soy milk carton, and discussing over it on Instagram.
6  Tried a new curry sauce that my mother in law suggested.  Not bad at all.
7  Got away for a few days and went to Massachusetts to visit my friends.
8  Passing by Beantown makes me miss it all the time.
9  A gloomy day to head back home, but happy to be back.

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend.

    Too bad about Picnic! That was such a cool site. As far as editing colors, I usually just tweak it a bit on Photobucket...not as good but still works. Love your photo recap. And those leopard loafers are awesome!

      Thanks Ellie for the heads up. I'll check out Photobucket. So far I'm using Pic Monkey for edits, but I haven't found a collage maker. The loafers are awesome! Thank you!

    wow...I love those leopard shoes..something which I am still looking too. I am curious about your color block project. Oh...that's our favorite Japanese curry paste. My kids love it. Your drawing is very cute, I like the simple line work.

    I never use picnik but i hope you find something different. I use photoshop to edit most of my photos. I actually don't own any loafers and do need to get a pair!

    Have you heard of Aviary? They have several different editing programs and I'm totally amazed at what they can do in a browser-- http://advanced.aviary.com/tools

    I love your loafers! So jealous! I tried to get some last fall, but could never find my size. Not meant to be :(

      Aha! I've heard of Aviary before...Thanks for reminding me!
      It's never not meant to be...I'm sure there's the right loafer for you out there Alex.
