paradise

(wearing: mom's vintage 'catalina' crop top, style biz inc skirt, vintage necklaces and kimono, Aldo wedges)

The weather has been so beautiful this week, I soaked it in and just let go of all the stresses that had been weighing me down and enjoyed the beauty around me. I spent time at the pool, reading in the park, sun bathing at the beach, enjoying great meals with family and friends, and just all around relaxing and mentally escaping. I get frustrated with people who are negative and don't recognize their blessings, but the truth is, we all take so much for granted-myself included. I thought I would do something different and just share a few things that I have been thankful for this past week;

The peacefulness of mornings
The feeling of taking a warm shower after a long day in the sun
Laughing and losing track of time with loved ones
The glorious combination that is coffee+Greek yogurt
The lighting in my kitchen in the middle of the afternoon
Journaling in my dream journal
Cleaning my room and coming across old childhood treasures
Jarritos mandarin soda (guilty pleashha lolzz)
Creating again after a long break; finally making new tops and jewelry
Singing at the top of my lungs with my headphones on
Apple Blossoms from Trader Joe's
My sewing machine aka best Christmas present evs
Sunsets at my favorite lookout

slightly.obsessed

So I thought I would do something a little different and share a post featuring some of my favorite blogger ladies. All of these girls are so unique and fashionable, but more than that- they are intelligent and funny and post things of substance. I would loveeee to be best friends with all of them and braid eachother's hair and have themed sleepovers and lol at life together. okay....maybe I am more than slightly obsessed. So here ya go, click away and become a fellow obsessor! You are welcomeeeeeee.

Madeline of Jean Greige. I lub her. She is so amazing. But you already know that.

Brit of Disarming Darling. If I could live in her closet I would. In the non creepiest way possible.

Severine of Clothed Chameleon. WHERE OH WHERE DOES SHE FIND ALL THOSE PERFECT PRINTED LEGGINGS?!

Isabel of I FLY A STARSHIP. No words necessary...just look at her! She is a gothy-90's-colorful-eccentric dream.

Mae of Mae's Visions. She is one of the most beautiful people I have gotten to know through blogging, inside and out.

Casey of Strawberry Freckleface. Not only are we both scorpios, but we are both print fanatics. Match made in heaven.

Jana of Wolf&Willow. When I first came across her blog I was sooo excited cause she has the same name as my mom (which is a rarity) and then after browsing through her looks for hours, I came to the conclusion that she is my fashion soul sista.

Well there you have it.

All of these gahlsss provide me with limitless inspiration and I hope they do the same for you!

p.s.

Trust me when I say there are TONS of other blogs I absolutely love, so if you don't see yourself here do not fret. I plan on doing more posts featuring some of my favorites in the future so stay tuned!

If you're a true bargain hunter like I am, you're always on the lookout for the best deals and sales available. I was recently contacted by a company called aSociete, a member's only flash sale site (created to cater to the budget of a college student) that offers daily deals on amazing items from some freakin' sweeeet labels. The prices will blow your mind, no joke. This Betsey Johnson tank has been glued to my body since it arrived on my doorstep, it's so comfortable I mayyy have even slept in it once or twice?

I'm off to binge on jelly beans and watch some Walking Dead with my sister, but more posts to come tomorrow!

gahddd she is so amazing, and how insane is the styling in this video?!

I need to make a pair of  those cut-out & fringe-ified shorts, like, yesterday.
Time to stow away in my room and DIY my brains out!
