SO I bought a new camera yesterday, one that I had been wanting for a loong long time. It was a big purchase but one that will add so much beauty and happiness to my life. I really think photography is going to be a new passion for me. Not only is it great for Shorely Chic, but will be so nice to capture all of the amazing things coming up in our lives.
I got the Nikon D3100 and let me tell you, I am obsessed!! I went to this little mom and pop camera shop up the street from my parent's house in Stamford, CT called Camera Wholesalers and they were so helpful. They even offer free classes every Thursday night to help you get to know all the ins and outs of your camera!! *another reason it is always better to buy from the little guys, the personal attention*

It was nighttime when I got it so I couldn't take the pretty outdoor shots but I got some of our current abode which I mentioned before is the in-law suite at my parent's house. It's been great for me and Brian to save $$ before we buy our own home, and the convenience of being close to mom with the wedding planning has been HUGE - love you, Mom (Dad, too) :) I'm always working on it to make it feel as homey and cozey as I can for me and Brian, but of course I'm not investing too too much because it is temporary. I'm saving all of that for the REALLY big purchase which will hopefully happen in the next year or so.
So here are some little vignettes from the place shot of course, with the new cam:

Yes, I need a lamp shade.
but isn't the lamp awesome!?
I'm thinking of swapping out the white roses for some branches, thoughts?
behind those doors is our bedroom
This is the guitar I bought for Brian for Christmas, along with his new amp. See how my pretty chair got pushed out of the corner? poor thing...
SO that is all, I hope you enjoyed a little glimpse into our lovely little abode (for now)!!
