runaway

♪ run, run away

  no sense of time ♪

Yeah, it's like that again. I've been in work mode the past few weeks and so horrible at catching up on blogging. I always feel guilty about being online when I have so much to do. I honestly love that it's a hobby and something fun for me..takes me out of my real world troubles for a bit! I may or may not be having a quarter-life crisis haha Anyone else feel that way after hitting 25?! Being a grown-up is tough. I'm also the biggest worrywart, I think I just need to have more fun!

 I've been walking/running 3 times a week for the past month and I feel pretty amazing.

Happy Wednesday!

Blossom Kingdom

♪I can promise you
You'll stay as beautiful
With dark hair
And soft skin...forever♪

Isn't it amazing how a totally random song can remind you of a certain time or place? I remember going through Luke's music when we were first dating and playing this..he starting singing it to me and I've been in love ever since haha I'm pretty sure I even had the same super short haircut!

I've been feeling kind of blah lately so I put on some of my favorite springtime pretties to spend some time at Pleasant Ridge. Perfect weather and sunsety goodness makes me a happy girl! We already missed most of the flowering trees, I swear some of them blossom and die within a week..wish they would stick around all spring!

I've been patiently waiting for the two apple blossom trees in the front of our house to finally bloom. I had to bring a few sprigs inside, they were just too pretty to resist! I've been working on this big arse house of ours a lot lately and it's been taking up most of my time, seems like the projects are never ending. Be careful what you wish for..why did my dream house have to be giant and over 150 years old?!

Have a lovely weekend!



Sorbet Spring

Everything is in bloom around our historic neighborhood. I just love the blossoming trees and pretty flowers springing up everywhere, so dreamy!

If you're anything like me you've been wearing pastels in full force for the past month. I can't get enough of pretty ice cream colors, this outfit just felt like spring to me!

My new(ish) super short hair..this is my attempt at wearing natural texture(damaged), still learning how to style it!

Mint is one of my all time favorite colors so I was super excited to score this vintage clutch in the perfect shade..mint sorbet!

Z reminds me of blossom haha

another favorite..it's peeps season!

Have a lovely weekend, go outside!

hark!

time lapse lifeline

Perfect song for driving around with the windows down in this amazing sunny weather we've been having lately, it already feels like spring! This was rediscovered this morning on a random mix that I played non-stop a few years ago, I love it just as much today. 

 I couldn't believe all of the daffodils we have popping up, my favorite little harbingers of spring!

Copper says "if it looks good eat it!" haha(but don't)

The color yellow releases serotonin and stimulates creativity..the more you know

They make me happy and the studio smells spring-time fresh, bonus!

We're having a mexican fiesta feast(homemade chiles rellenos!) and watching

some like it hot

It's one of the first classic movies I saw and still my very favorite.

Have a lovely weekend!

Happy Tuesday!



wintry wind

"No boughs have withered because of the wintry wind;
The boughs have withered because I have told them my dreams."

-Yeats

electric litany- a dream worth dreaming

It finally snowed!! And then it was gone..it's 68 and sunny right now,this has been the weirdest winter ever!

It was freezing when we took these but I had to get a shot of this amazing vintage cape I found at the flea market. As I was buying it a little old lady ran over and hugged it saying "ooo this looks like sherlock holmes!" haha back off grams, this one's mine! I never thought I would be battling grannies for the same things haha what can I say, I like what I like.

In other news, this is the last time you'll be seeing me with my hair up in a sad little bun...I chopped it all off! I mean full-on almost Pixie. I cut it myself as usual so I'm still perfecting it, a little bit more is coming off everyday haha Short little layers are harder than I thought, escpecially in the very back. Thank goodness for haircutting videos. I'm hoping I can get it how I want, super nervous to show it off!

hark!

     

♪ Shyness, let it go

 Never have to feel so lonely ♪

I'm sipping some fresh fruit/veggie juice and catching up on e-mails and messages..does anyone else get shy when it comes to responding to people online? I always want to make sure my personality shows through but I often wonder if I've said the wrong things or made any sense at all. Duckie's voice pops into my head "Do I offend? when I catch myself after the fact or over analyze what I've just said haha Pretty in Pink is one of my favorite movies of all time so that's the kind of silly thing I would think. I wish I could talk to everyone as easily as I talk to Luke, or the animals, or myself..that sounds crazy doesn't it haha Forget about calling people on the phone, I'm horrible at it!

It's a get it done Saturday, shyness and all..
