▲ 01 Multilayer Bracelet ▲ 02 Geometric Print Dress ▲ 03 Rose Blazer ▲ 04 Black Button Satchel ▲ 05 Gold Heart Chain ▲ Spring has sprung throughout the country and I am loving all these flowery instagram pictures. This time of year I get obsessed with dresses, long-flowy-dresses. They are the epitome of spring, the wonderful air, the cool grass, the brushing trees, the way your hair blows in the spring wind. I’m obsessed. I’m also obsessed with this dress above-it also comes in a green hue. Just imagine twirling around in it with your favorite sandals, grass beneath your feet. Yikes,… Read More

to quote shakespeare: parting is such sweet sorrow

Holy cow you guys. I finished my internship today. Yes, on employee appreciation day, and they brought us ice cream, and they had sprinkles, and nuts, and hot fudge, and cherries, I could have eaten all the ice cream. It was like they secretly planned the party for me but called it employee appreciate day instead. I didn’t mind though. It was all so surreal today. I woke up just as I would any old Monday or Wednesday and I got ready for my internship, I hardly thought about it being my official last day…. Read More

my biggest weakness.

One of my biggest weakness is animals. I’ve had a soft spot for them my whole life and it didn’t matter the breed. Although I’m allergic to cats I still enjoy being around them-even if the aftermath is sneezing uncontrollably.

So this weekend Brand and I were walkout out of our apartment when we saw one of our neighborhood cats. She was laying on the sidewalk and at first it looked like she was just… Read More

currently

top: c/o Persunmall, jeans: tjmaxx: sold out (similar), necklace: caroline g. (giveaway I won), shoes: famous footwear ’06, watch: fossil (gifted) watching: the guardian. It’s one of those social work-y type shows that I just-can’t-stop-watching. And it’s from 2001 so that makes it even more great, the theme song screams 90’s as do the outfits, it makes me feel like I’m waiting for Y2K to strike again. crocheting: I just finished a huge afghan, fourth of all time, this time it was for a special someone who has literally given me many things. I’m also in… Read More
