Dreaming of Feeling Fancy

During the day I find myself day dreaming a lot. Maybe it's my love for reading and all things fairy tale, whatever the case I love looking at pictures that allow my imagination to run wild. 

Le Love always has the cutest pictures that hit home with me <3
Love this Cruella De Ville pictorial in Vogue Italy. Black and white polka dots are my favorite.
Found so many great ideas at The Cupcake Blog
Can't you just feel the romance <3 (image found here)
Strange but so beautiful. Beauty and the Beast is a classic. (unknown source)



What inspires you or allows you to day dream?

I Gave You All

My weekend was a very good one. Full of family, friends, and......lots of mud. I did a 10k race called the Dirty Dash. Check it out here: The World's Muddiest Race. Seriously, check it out! I had so much fun despite being forced to do this race by one of my friends. In the end I was absolutely covered in mud and exhausted, but still had an absolute ball. Here is my weekend in photos:
On Friday night I went to the Spokane raceway. It was fun, but oh boy the crowd was very interesting to say the least.
Two of my favorite necklaces I love to pair together. Turquoise makes me happy.
Honestly can you ever go wrong with leopard print?
The steak dinner my family and I had on Saturday. Cooked by my stepfather- he has saved us from eating out every night!
Before the race reppin' my team shirt. I haven't received my pictures back yet of what I looked like after, but I will post when I do. Definitely did not look anything like this.
This weekend was fun and dirty....just like I like it! What did you do this weekend? Hopefully it was as great as mine!

Bows With a Splash of Red

Hello! This summer in the Pacific Northwest has been extremely mild, despite the lack of record breaking temperature's I am still itching to wear fall trends.
Don't get me wrong I love summer clothes, but I find I get really tired after a   month of trying to pair an outfit that doesn't end up making me sweat. With fall and winter outfits I get to layer on classic pieces with fun, bold trends. 

I have compiled my fall wish list. I realized the trends are kinda all over the place, but I am dying to find lady like pieces with a bit of bold staples (like bright red skinny jeans)!

Let it Sparkle

This past week was full of fun, birthday festivities. This girl (meaning me!) turned 21 and I am still alive! Over the past weekend I went over to Seattle to visit my sister, and celebrate my coming of age. She let me borrow this fabulous gold sequined shirt. Needless to say I brought the sparkle! 
My big sister, Tegan. This girl adores anything bright and sparkly. 
My birthday shoes (Steve Maddens) and a clutch my sister got for me. The clutch is this beautiful light pink with big jewels lining the top. 
Bahama Momma drink at this cute Tiki theme bar in Edmonds, WA. Since we told everyone it was my birthday they felt the need to make my drinks extra strong.
My sisters college roommate, Emily, is always a good time. She also appreciates my love for cats!

Seriously this birthday was amazing, and full of wonderful friends and family. I am not a huge fan of my birthday and making a big fuss out of it, but it always makes me feel incredibly blessed to have such wonderful friends and family!
