recent happenings: no. 6

 

 remember when you were little and your parents used to tell you time went by faster the older you get; well they weren't lying.  march went by in a flash.  another trip to the mountains, celebrating a few birthdays including the boyf's, me and the nightmare girls selling at a new market.  all that and trying to squeeze in some much needed love with george and some downtime watching new girl.  which i'm officially OBSESSED with.  

new girl, how you make my day better.  favorite quote: "i'm going to tap him like a maple tree." ~ jess

outfit: Snowed in

Sundays are usually spent with the fam. With all this talk of snow I was hesitant to make the drive, but the city didn't have any so I decided to hit the road. However George and I were in for a treat. Snow everywhere!! Let's hope it let's up or I might get snowed in. Although that wouldn't be so bad. :)

Wearing:

Coat ~ j. Crew

Sweater ~ Pendleton for Levi's

Jeans ~ Levi's

Rain boots ~ Burberry

Turban ~ uo

lucky, lucky.

i recently acquired a tripod!  its not the nicest looking thing but it'll still be a big help.  i was super excited to take some photos up on the roof with it.  but it was cold and overcast.  so instead you get another round of what i'm not wearing.  

i had an hour to kill last friday, so i was able to take a peak in the thrift store before meeting my friends for drinks.  found a new silky kimono (i've got a little collection going on).  and on sunday the boyf and i hit up the fremont market (the closest thing seattle has to a flea market) and found some kate spade desert boots.  score!  i've been wanting a pair of desert boots for ages. :)

in case you wondered what went on behind the scenes, george insists on helping layout the clothes. 

shirt dress ~ target

cardigan & belt ~ thrifted

shoes ~ uo
