Hello and Happy Friday! I’ve noticed some new faces and thought I would share some things about myself. (Along with some ways to wear cute rainboots!) 1. I’m super clumsy. I knock things over, fall, trip and walk into things. Objects just tend to fall out of my hands. 2. I am a perfectionist over my […]

Feminine Feminist
The word ‘Feminist’ can invoke some strong feelings for some people and others not so much. It can be met with praise, high fives or even eye rolls. Not everyone will think the same as me or have the exact ideology of what being a feminist is. In my opinion, life experiences and situations can […]
Mini Skirt Season
The weather gets colder and the skirts get shorter. Mini skirt season has arrived! It doesn’t make much sense to me either but I do embrace it. All bundled up from head to toe but a short skirt this time of year looks fabulous. It would look as odd as wearing sweats and a […]
Eat, Sleep, Pink…Repeat
Is this available in pink? Do you have this in pink? These are the questions I typically ask before making a purchase. I can’t help it, it’s my most favorite color. My eyes and my heart gravitate towards this gorgeous shade and nothing else comes close. I’ve loved pink since I was a child and […]
Words To Live By
Happy New Year, lovelies! 🎉My first post of 2020. I’m going to keep it real with you…I don’t do resolutions. I find that I never fully commit to them and then feel guilty about it. Instead, I choose a word that has personal meaning and to live by for the year. I started doing this […]
Locking in Moments
Have you ever had moments where you wish that time could just stand still? Of course, we all do. I’ve always wondered why during mundane times such as being stuck in traffic, being in class or at work, every minute can feel like an hour. Time seems to pass so slowly then but time really […]
Stop Apologizing, Start Posting
Life’s moments are so fleeting and how we feel about or see ourselves can change on any given day. Some days you can feel unstoppable, on top of the world, and then there are those days you feel insecure. “I don’t want to be that girl who posts selfies all the time,” is something I […]
Taking Photos And Social Anxiety
Taking photos is just a part of social media, blogging, etc, and it plays a big role. The smiles, the poses but what really goes into that photo? When you’re out in public or in a crowded area or you’re with friends and take photos, or even by yourself with a selfie, you snap […]
Joys of Traveling Solo
I started my journey in solo traveling in 2017. It was my first trip to California and something I had never ventured into before. I was nervous, a little scared and also really excited. After having done one under my belt, I have since done a couple of others and will continue to do so. […]
Harsh Criticism
Recently, I went on a lunch date with an old friend of mine. We hadn’t seen each other in a while, so of course, there was quite a bit of catching up to do. I showed her my social media and I wasn’t expecting the response I received. She had put down most of my […]
No Comparison
“I’m the only one of me…. baby, that’s the fun of me. You’re the only one of you… baby that’s the fun of you” Taylor Swift, Me. It’s hard not to compare ourselves to others, whether it be in real life or on social media. Scrolling through your feed, picture perfect lives and images flood […]
The Road To Happiness
“The most important thing is to enjoy your life- to be happy, it’s all that matters.” Audrey Hepburn Most people want to be happy and many just don’t know how to achieve it. I’ve spent many years being unhappy and the longer I was, it just never seemed possible to get out of the head […]
What’s In a Name
I often look at screen names and wonder, how did they come up with that? What’s the story behind that name? Some are funny, some are based on their name and some…well, I honestly don’t have any idea why they picked the name they did. Your online name speaks volumes and tells the reader about […]
The Magic of Sunflowers
Stand tall like a sunflower and turn your face to the sun…. The magic of sunflowers, a gorgeous yellow flower that looks up to the sun. It’s my favorite flower and it always puts a smile on my face. It doesn’t take long for them to grow and blossom but the beauty doesn’t last long, […]
Memories and Mementos
While traveling, one thing I love to do, is pick up mementos or souvenirs to remember my trip. Of course, I can take photos and capture those moments, but I like that an item can instantly transport me back into time and all the memories I made can really bring upon a smile. I also […]
Create Your Own Fairy Tale
All the single ladies, all the single ladies… I have been a single lady since 2015. On the heels of my my breakup, of being in a relationship for 10 years, I found myself completely lost. I wanted to replace or fill that void as quickly as I possibly could. I’ve watched people rush into […]
Big world, Small Town Treasures
Before I moved to the city, there was a time when I was a small town girl. As I made my way through Eastern Washington, I knew I had to stop by the place where I had spent a good portion of my life. You know, the type of small town where everyone knows each […]
Jumpers, Rompers and Collabs
In my last post, I talked about 5 things I’ve learned in my year in blogging. Today, I’m going to discuss 5 things you shouldn’t do. 1. Don’t get discouraged. A single post or photo can really launch or propel someone in the blog-osphere. Everything happens in its own time, exactly when it’s supposed […]
One Year Later
Hello everyone! I’m celebrating a land mark date for myself… I’ve been blogging for one year! I’m really into celebrating milestones, however big or small. Achieving goals and accomplishments keeps your dreams big and keeps them growing. I am by no means a pro when it comes to social media, in fact, I still […]
Red, White and Stripes
Happy 4th of July! Just a quick post today, as I am spending time with family and loved ones, and hope you are too! Summer, barbecues and fireworks are such a fun part of celebrating Independence Day. In true American fashion, I had to show my patriotic side in classic red, white and blue. My […]
My Pink and Butterfly World
If I could decorate my world, it would be in all shades of pink and fluttery butterflies. I consider myself to be uber feminine and utterly girly. Glitter, flowers, fairies, rainbows, unicorns and mermaids… they’re all invited too. I’m just a girl, young at heart with her head in the clouds, and I’m completely fine […]
Colors and Camo
Hello everyone, I hope you’re doing well. It’s my favorite part of the week… the weekend! Today, I’m going to do a combined post of 2 outfits I wore this week. I’m not one to shy away from colors and prints; the brighter and bolder, the better! I have a true love affair for animal prints, […]
This Is How I Denim
Many of you already know, I don’t wear jeans or pants, and while I don’t necessarily feel as though I’m missing out, I do love denim. Other than jeans, denim is easy to find in jackets and shirts but not quite so available in skirt or dress forms. Let’s be honest, many denim skirts and […]
The Blogger Tuck
”It’s always ice cream o’clock somewhere.” Mini getaways are the best, especially when it’s in your home state and only a drive and a ferry ride away. I live for these types of getaways because they’re affordable, fun and can seem a world away from what you’re used to seeing on a daily basis. It […]
Military Green Dream
“Fashion wasn’t what you wore someplace anymore; it was the whole reason for going.” -Andy Warhol I’ve been to the bunkers at Fort Worden a few times and I enjoy the scenery, rich in history. If I’m being completely honest, I very much had a “I did it for the gram” moment. When I first […]
White Out
“I will never be the woman with perfect hair, who can wear white without spilling on it.” -Carrie Bradshaw I adore white but I don’t wear it often and I don’t have many white pieces in my wardrobe. Why? Because I’ve ruined all of them. I am clumsy to a fault and anyone that knows […]
May Flowers
“The earth laughs in flowers.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson April showers bring May flowers, and it was well worth the wait. Appreciation post and shout out to the month of May for coming through with such astounding beauty. When I was growing up, I actually disliked the color yellow with a passion. I don’t know […]
My 50th Post
This is my 50th post! Woo-hoo! This is a major milestone for me, as I’m absolutely horrible with commitment. Thanks so much for being by my side, as I appreciate YOUR commitment! What better way to celebrate than to wear one of my favorite prints. Leopard… cheetah…. yes, of course! I took this not so […]
Fierce and Fabulous
Its Fierce and fabulous Friday and nothing makes me feel more this way than a good leopard print. Or is it cheetah? Does anyone know the differences between the two prints? I see them both used intermittently. Regardless, I’ll take them all! Leopard print is the new black and I have a feeling it’s going […]
Up In Arms
For the love of social media, everyone looks so perfect, having the best time without a hair out of place. It can be an intimidating place to venture into. Snapping a few pics and posting seems so easy until you’re standing there, unsure of what to do. It feels like test anxiety and you’re […]
Life’s a Garden
Life’s a garden… dig it! Sometimes it takes new beginnings to see new growth and ending chapters that weren’t leading anywhere. Being amassed by nature’s beauty, I’ve been reminded that it does stop to rain eventually and a flower blooms. Update post: I had to step away for a little bit. I needed to balance […]
Weekly Roundup
Hello! It’s been a busy week so I thought I would round up some dress looks in one post. Its been cold and rainy this past week that it’s hard to believe that it’s really spring. However, after the rain, there’s always a rainbow. I’m not one to shy away from prints/ patterns and I’ve […]
Throwback Ootd
Its Throwback Thursday and I thought it would be fun to post some pics that were forgotten along the way. Vacations are some of the best, especially if you have photos to remind of you of those memories. I’m missing Vegas and the palm trees and can’t wait until my next trip. Besides pink, yellow […]
Stepping Out in Snake Skin
I am a huge fan of all things animal print… leopard, cheetah, zebra and last but not least, snake skin. (Faux, of course.) I don’t have a favorite, I love them all! Animal prints are of a louder variety, be prepared to get noticed and stand out! This is an unexpected look but adds so […]
April Fools Day
Happy April Fools Day! Hope everyone is safe and the pranks and jokes were all in good fun. I’ve never been pranked on April Fools, and if I did, I most definately would have fell for it. I’m entirely gullible and transparent, I fall for anything! Just like that, March has passed so quickly and […]
Cherry Blossom Love
One of my most favorite times of the year in Seattle, is when the air is filled with the fragrant blooms of beautiful cherry blossoms. The city traffic, buildings, and seemingly never ending rainfall, it can be hard sometimes to see beauty amongst the hustle and bustle. It was a gorgeous sunny weekend and the […]
Spring is in the Air
Hello lovelies, it’s been a little while! The cold has a way of bringing on the winter blues and the start of spring has lifted some of the darkness. Spring is such a renewal of energy for me. It’s almost as if I’ve been hibernating away all winter and now I’m awake and feel alive. […]
Stuff and Fluff (Pt I)
Seattle is getting caught up in a snow storm this weekend. I thought, what better time to do a “get to know me” post. Beyond my love for dresses and the color pink, I’ll be sharing 10 things about me, some “real stuff” and some “fun fluff.” Let’s start with the first 5, […]
A Splash of Pink
Brrrrr… it’s cold and snowy, it’s most definately winter. I like a little snow here and there but I’m really hopeful for an early spring! A splash of color is a fun way to break away from the bleak winter days. Pink is my favorite color. Pink can have a calming effect and can help […]
A floral affair
Whats better than actually receiving flowers? For me personally, I prefer my flowers on a dress. Floral prints never wilt, wither or die. They look alive and fresh all the time. I think flowers are a true representation of romance, love or starting a new. With Valentines Day right around the corner, this is a […]
Not A Dress Snob
Something I get asked frequently is “Where do you get all your dresses from?” I’m asked as if I’m about to disclose my favorite shop and I have one main supplier. Friends, I’ll let you in on my secret…..I buy my dresses everywhere and anywhere. I have dresses from Walmart, Target, mall stores, department stores, […]
Not So Basic LBD
For the the love of the LBD. The “little black dress.” We all have at least one in our closet that we bring out and it’s just right for most any occasion. Black dresses are a classic and should be a staple piece in our wardrobes. It just goes with a lot and it’s chic […]
Bows With Fringe Benefits
There’s that accessory rule/ guideline, which states, that before you leave the house, remove one piece of jewelry. I’ve never abided to that rule, the more the better, is what I live by. I’m an over-accessorizer. In keeping true to my 2019 word of the year, I choose to “sparkle” inside and out! I think […]
Locked In Love
My vacation days are coming to an end and I knew there were some places I had to stop by before I leave. I grabbed a lock and headed to the Love Locket Scuplture. This would be a symbolic gesture to…. myself. The last few years have been an incredible journey of ups and downs, […]
Fabulous Faux Fur
Jackets and coats are meant to keep us warm in the winter and they can take your dresses up a notch. Unless you live some where always warm or tropical, it’s inevitable. You just can’t walk around in dresses all day in the winter without a coat. This has been my favorite season for […]
Sparkle
Happy New Years!! I’m bursting with energy today and feel incredibly optimistic for 2019. This is going to be one of my best years yet, I can feel it. Hope your goals, resolutions and dreams be in your favor this year. I’ve picked my word of the year. I’ve decided to Sparkle. I want to […]
Holiday Red
Happy New Years Eve! Waking up to the bright sunshine and palm trees was a beautiful start for my last day of 2018. I love a black and red combo. There’s something about the two together that really makes your outfit sassy and bold. I get a little hesitant when I throw white into the […]
Vegas Bound
“I’m leaving, on a jet plane….” I couldn’t be more excited to celebrate New Years in Las Vegas! It was a quick flight from Seattle, so why not make the walk to departures in a little animal print? I can’t wait to share my Vegas adventures with you but in the meantime, this is my […]
Plaid, Pearls and Resolutions
Christmas has come and gone so quickly and the New Year will be here in just a matter of days. Most people have New Years Resolutions in hopes for their best year yet. I haven’t made any resolutions and I haven’t done so for the past few years. Instead, I come up with a word […]
My Favorite Plaid
As a dress enthusiast, it’s a moment of joy when you find your favorite plaid print in a dress. Of course, you can find plaid in an array of choices, shirts, jackets, scarves but not often in a dress/ or skirt form. This was a meant to be moment in Target and I had my […]
Sneakers and Dresses
The sneakers with dresses trend started a few years back and has been hugely popular since. I’m typically a heels type of girl and wearing sneakers, unless at the gym, didn’t appeal to me. Needless to say, I’m behind on the trend but I’ve been fully embracing the look lately. While being in Korea, there is […]
