and the countdown begins.

ok. so as much as I wanted to start this like 3 months ago it seemed a little inappropriate... and since the excitement has now taken over my life I thought it might be time to share. (that and i just couldn't hold it in any longer)

knd and I are going to MEXICO! on an actual vacation... which has like NEVER happened. I am sooooo excited to not only get away from work, and the ever approaching cold Michigan winter, but to spend an entire week with my love and two other couples (who just happen to be my bestest friends)!

I've already started packing in my head and have been on a mad search for some great books and the perfect bathing suit!


i can't wait, i can't wait, i can't wait.

i love this.

and it just keeps popping into my life lately.

So many impossible things are on my mind today. New endeavors, upcoming trips, and lots and lots to look forward to!

I'll update you soon :)

hello there.

short sleeves

i wonder if i could pull this off? The wrap around belted short sleeve coat with tousled hair and black booties... hmm if only my bank account was never ending!

sometimes

sometimes you just need to put on a tutu and dance around a bit. it seems to make everything better.

paper + craft

I want want want! This magazine looks amazing and fits perfectly with my love of paper (and well designed books) :)

found via Lovely Morning... who I am currently stalking

his pledge to her:

i will kill the spiders. i will share my fries with you when you’ve finished all yours and are still hungry. i won’t ever pop my collar. i will never be rude to your tummy- when i hear it growl and gurgle, i promise to bend down and reply respectfully. i will eat the mushrooms when we order the supreme pizza. i will kiss the papercuts. and the door-slammed finger. and the counter-bumped hip. i’ll try my hardest not to get annoyed when you whisper questions and comments during movies. i will be the big spoon. i will let you win at wrestling. sometimes. other times i will not. i will go faster. harder. i will pull when you want. and tease you when you don’t. i will send you random txts and leave you silly gifts. not always. not on schedule. just whenever i want to. whenever i think you need one. or seven. i will check your tire pressure. and remind you to take your car in. i will hold your hand. i will love you. i will love you. i will love you.

the french.

they just always seem to make things a little bit better. I don't know if these girls are french, but they look like it, with their cute loose buns and over sized clutches and that fur jacket?

don't you agree?

white

lately i have been drawn to things that are white. this bike is one of those things.

cozy time.

I haven't been feeling all that well today and this outfit seems to be the perfect remedy. these socks look amazingly cuddly... don't they just scream "lets snuggle in front of the fire"?

the whale.

chiaroscuro

zara

i am loving the clothes at Zara for fall. Not to mention this really pretty model just makes them all the more cool.

long brown leather gloves? Capes? Layers? Grown out bangs? YES. please and thank you.

just words.

who cares if i don't have a baby

this is the cutest baby room ever.

sail away with me honey

i put your heart in my hand,
sail away with me honey now, now, now.

oh yes.

so many things are right with this picture.

breakfast.

I wish I had eaten this today... instead i had cereal AND a bagel when i got to work (who can resist free carbs?) ohhh i can't wait till the weekend... i love weekend breakfast. or as my mom would say "brefast" no k.

lets switch outfits today

k, thanks.

i haven't seen the latest episode

but im in love with eva. and all of her little outfits... Blaire back off she's so cute! (although due to the CW being THE DEVIL i haven't been able to see the end of "Touch of Eva" where i have a sneaking suspicion that something goes horribly wrong... curse you CW and your crappy video streaming!!!!)

this song.

I posted a video about this song not too long ago... and so i was pleasantly surprised when I found this cute little print with the lyrics! oh so lovely... i think I'm officially obsessed!

i love lions

i know i shouldn't be wishing for cold weather (considering its just about perfect outside right now - 70s and sunny) but something about not feeling so well makes me crave millions of over sized layers...

wish i were here #17
