Buy me flowers

Sometimes I hear women complaining about how they don't like to receive flowers on predictable occasions like valentines day or their birthday. I think they must be horribly spoiled to say that. I would love to be so lucky to receive flowers on any occasion, predictable or otherwise.

But there is no reason I can't spoil myself; just a mixed bouquet which was on sale at the grocery store for under $10, and I'm all smiles. Being able to include them in my outfit photos was an added bonus.

  1. I like the way you see things, Lyddie! Flowers are always lovely, and they are fun to take pictures of (and with, as you did here--such a pretty bouquet!).

    I like that you're getting a lot of wear out of that blazer. It's one of my favorite pieces of yours!

  2. You know if I was still in the area I'd buy you flowers! And you look so cute with that bouquet sticking out of your purse. I feel like you also need to be holding some French bread and have a vintage bike and then the whole picture would be complete!

  3. I don't like getting flowers on predictable holidays, but it's not because I'm spoiled. I just think the holiday markup on flowers is a rip-off and I'd prefer if my husband saved our money for better things.

    Lovely outfit and lovely flowers!

  5. Yayyy such pretty flowers! I'm too cheap to buy my own, but I agree...who needs a man to buy them flowers?

    I like to spoil myself with flowers too. Not that my hunny isn't thoughtful, but sometimes you just have to buy your own flowers! lol

    Cute look! Looking forward to your next post ;)

  7. I agree! I love getting flowers! My husband gets me flowers every month on the 8th since we were married on the 8th. He is much more romantic than I am--usually I forget all about the "anniversary" LOL I love your monochromatic look and your flowers are gorgeous!

  12. I usually buy flowers on the weekends .... split them into 2 or 3 small bouquets. One for the dining table, another one for my bedside table and a tiny one for my bathroom. If i cannot buy them, I pick the from my balcony plants or bring them from the weekend home.
    My husband use to buy me flowers all the time, and yes i think i got spoiled to the point i asked him to stop. yeah i am weird.

  29. The two pinks go so great together! I will have to take a cue from you and try to do this...I always feel like the pink would have to match but this is so much more multi-dimensional- beautiful!

  31. Pink!! My favorite! I think this jacket is my favorite of all your spring purchases. It's very classic. And I love the gold chain.

  32. I think women who make that comment may be saying "buy me flowers just because I am here, or as a surprise, or to let me know I'm special everyday and not on the days that they're expected". I gave up waiting for him to buy them and buy them for myself ...because I am special ;-)

    Love your outfit Lyddie - the jacket is divine

  36. These photos are so cute! I completely agree with you, whenever someone brings me flowers it makes me so happy, I love flowers and it shows that they were thinking of you even if it's "predictable". I think they are just lovely. I love your pants as well, pastel jeans are just great. Lovely post :)

  45. There is nothing like flowers to make a girl feel special - but if you really want them, you've got the right idea; the solution is to buy yourself a bouquet! The one you picked out is so lovely, the colours remind me a lot of my wedding bouquet. And the fact that is coordinates with your outfit is just an added bonus. I'd never thought of flowers as a potential accessory, but you've officially convinced me that I need to try it!
