Guys, I'm branching out. Or let's be honest--I'm getting practical. Summer isn't the best time for chunky necklaces. I know that I don't want anything more against my skin than necessary. So to accessorize for the summer, pendant necklaces like this one from JamieBentley.com are perfect to add a little glam to any outfit in the summertime! I've dumped (okay, not dumped...we're just taking some time apart) my chunkier necklaces of the cooler months. Delicate charms are my new (love) interest now.

While I'm styling this blouse from The Phrenzy I figured I'd take this opportunity to remind you of some coupon codes that I've got for you guys!

I'm also playing in a summer soccer league with my school team, which started up yesterday. It felt so good to get back out on the field after a few month hiatus from playing in games (I've still been training). It's weird--I was thinking about it, and I don't know that much about the bloggers behind the blogs I read (other than where they shop :P ). To me, and to readers in general, all they are is someone who posts an outfit every so often. You don't always realize that they are actually doing stuff, too. I mean, I obviously didn't go and play soccer in this outfit...but when I think about it, I haven't really talked to you that much about soccer!

With the true soccer season fast approaching, I figure now's a good time as any.

I'm the starting varsity goalkeeper for my school's team which means I stand in the big rectangular box and prevent the ball from going in. Or try to, anyways. It's harder than it sounds! And when I play goalie, I'm very unstylish. I wear men's pants with big padding on the sides that makes my hips look huge. I wear a long-sleeved, baggy shirt that is also meant for a man. Also, I wear a mouthguard and headgear (safety FIRST) as required of me by my dad ("just protecting your BRAIN, Rory") and smelly gloves to catch the ball with. It makes for a good look, right?

This picture is about a year old, before the addition of my beloved headgear to my game attire. But I assure you, it only adds to my already stylish look.

What do you do that most of your readers didn't know about/realize?

Don't forget to enter the giveaway...TEN WINNERS, guys, TEN!!!
