we just took a lovely sunset walk around the beach with our weenie. it has still been so hot, and we really only enjoy walking around in the evening. the bright side is that it’s mid-august, and by october/november it will be a few degrees cooler! in florida we don’t look forward to “the fall,” we more-so look forward to being able to spend more…
i have been thinking a lot lately about life’s beauty. i attribute these thoughts to my job, which is based around making clothing look beautiful. this goal of constant beauty has slowly trickled into every aspect of my life, and i’m realizing that i enjoy creating a picturesque world for myself. i sometimes feel like i see my own life through a lens constantly, and…
south beach has this lovely system of bikes for rent, so you can walk a block from your house, rent a bike and then drop it off at other locations. matt and i biked around at sunset, and it was too fun. being on a bike gives me that “OH IT’S GOOD TO BE ALIVE” feeling. it makes me feel like a little kid 🙂…
here we are venturing into the coconut grove farmer’s market, where you can walk in with endless possibilities and walk out with an empty wallet. there’s just so much yummy food to buy, it’s unbelievable. i love how it all looks so colorful and fresh too 🙂 i’ve been saving this dress for the day i actually go on a hot air balloon ride (it…
1. Minolta Hi-Matic E: Bought this on etsy for $27. It’s my go-to lightweight shooter. Its a 70s era rangefinder. 2. Yashica Electro 35 GS: Got this on ebay for $50 plus the cost of a battery adapter. It’s currently broken but i plan to get another one because it took some of my best, sharpest, and most memorable photos. They sell on ebay for between $70-100 for a working one. 3. Canon A2E: This…
oh the fresh feeling of wearing white on an august summer day 🙂 i’ve gotta say, white is DEFINITELY a color i connect with lately. i really feel so fresh these days, like a whole new me. more sleep, less travel time, healthier eating, less procrastinating, more running AND a HUGE love for my job. isn’t it interesting the colors we gravitate toward, and when?…
i wore this to go see the movie still mine this morning. it’s funny that i was excited to layer two sleeveless tops to sit in movie theater AC, but the second we stepped outside this was way too hot for FL! the movie was good, if you were considering seeing it too 🙂 it was a really fun weekend of reconnecting with old friends,…
around this time of the year, i always miss the feeling of going “back to school.” there is something so fresh and exciting about buying new notebooks and pens and knowing they will soon be filled with new ideas, thoughts and theories. maybe i’m a sap, but i still try to keep the magic of learning alive in my life. since i was a little…
happppy wednesday! it’s my day off, but boy do i have a list of things to get done… all fun things of course! even though i don’t work til’ 9 or 10 on my new schedule, i still can’t kick the habit of waking up really early. i guess it’s okay though, because mornings are fun! i wore this to grab coff with matt and…
today was a beautiful day, because we booked our wedding date! 202 days until we are husband and wifey! we stood at the site where we’re going to be wed officially, and i got a little emotional. it’s incredible how much we have gone through together to get to this point. i am so proud of us. ♥ i wore this fun and colorful outfit…

Lulu’s was sweet & sent over this vacation look for my trip, which i got great use out of in the hot hot heat! tomorrow morning i am back to work bright N early. there’s something comforting about familiar faces and old routines. goodnight! ♥ dress:…
NYC has been averaging about 95-100 degrees for our stay, so you can say it’s been a sweaty few days 🙂 we’ve been drinking a lot of iced coff, eating a lot of ice pops and trying to find AC as much as we can… with some thrifting in between! hope you enjoy my photos, more to come soon 🙂 xo dress: for sale in…
goodbye martha’s vineyard, hello new york. we took a ‘last sunset walk’ around my neighborhood last night. there’s something so comforting about knowing that these beautiful streets are always here waiting for me. this is my ideal vacation outfit. it’s easy, comfortable and has an elastic waistline for all the ice cream we’ve been eating 🙂 blouse: c/o romwe skirt: vintage shoes: vintage hat: vintage…
I took a yoga class this morning with my mom, matt and our friend cody. it was in this beautiful barn that overlooked a field, with the windows open and the breeze filling the room throughout the class. we could even hear birds chirping the whole time! at the end of class, the instructor read us a poem. it really connected to how i am…
whenever i look back at my blog, i always enjoy looking back on vacation posts the most. i usually regret not taking more photos, even though it’s hard to step away from the fun to snap them. this trip i want to have lots to look back on, so i’ve been shooting as much as i can (and not just of outfit pictures, of course!)…
hello from marthas vineyard 🙂 ! i’ve been coming here since i’m a little girl– and my parents got this house in 2005, so it’s become a life routine to be here every summer. it’s amazing how much more i appreciate the vacation as i get older and have less time to get away & less time to be with my family. our house is…

so WOW yesterday was one of the best days in life so far. i will elaborate more next week, but let’s say there’s been some celebrating around here. ever have those moments when you step outside yourself and acknowledge that “things are really going to change and never be the same..?” i’ve been doing lots of that, just cherishing ever single second, trying to remember…
