A la Mulan

     

Kimono + dress: Urban Outfitters | earrings + clogs: Free People

This past week has been a great week and explains my short hiatus on the blog. I got a job offer at a place I've been wanting to work at for a very long time and I'm over the moon. I will soon share where. 

But I'm back! And here is one of my favorite dresses. Pairing it with this kimono and clogs was ace; also it made my outfit very a la Mulan... minus the sword.

I was conflicted because I wanted to wear a necklace with this outfit, but the earrings really stand out on their own. Minimal is the way to go.

The playground for my creativity

Pullover sweater: Urban Outfitters | tee: Madewell | beanie: etsy | jeans: Dstld | boots: Seychelles

The chunky cozy sweater is making an appearance once again, this time topped with a toffee colored beanie. Not kidding! That was the color description when I bought it. It's a lovely tone and it goes great with white blonde hair.

So ever since Christmas I've been on an itch to continue editing my home. It's not 100 percent where I want it,  nor do I think it will be any time soon. But when is it, really?
Every time I decorate a spot in the house I start to talk about my future visions, to what my husband says:

-"There's more? I thought we were done with decorating"...

...man, am I right?

My house is like the playground for my creativity. Just like putting an outfit together, I really love reinventing a place/room by meshing ideas, thus making a place enjoyable to the eye.
When I was younger and living in my grandparents house I would spend almost every Saturday cleaning and rearranging the furniture in my bedroom. I loved that sense of accomplishment of walking into my bedroom and feeling like I had entered a completely new room.
Redecorating and rearranging is refreshing indeed.

Soon I will share on the blog a little bit of the new edits in my home. It's been a while since I've done a home decor post. What do you think?

The T-dress

tee dress: UO | boots + necklace: Anthropologie | bandeau top: FreePeople

If I thought I had a favorite dress in my closet, I thought wrong. This one is a new favorite. Easy to dress up or down + the beautiful gray fade gives it a nice touch, upping up the simplicity. And did I mention comfort?. I could sleep on this dress. But of course, I won't.

This Friday my friends and I drive up to Tampa FL, to play. That's right the Anchor Collective has a gig!

Looking forward to having a great time with my friends. 

Bucket list

romper: Urban Outfitters || flats: Anthropologie || watch: Daniel Wellington || hair clip: Free People

The older I get, the more I find myself wanting to travel + explore.

A few days back my friends and I, started talking about the age 30. Not that we are all there yet, but late 20's means you are getting closer. 

Suddenly it was like opening a can of worms, as the questions started to unfold,

           -"HAVE I LIVED?!"... -"HAVE I DONE IT ALL?"...

...and just like that, the bucket list emerged... 

Chris and I are planning a vacation later this year. So far I know it will involve a cabin in the woods, seeing waterfalls for the first time, exploring + taking pictures; lots of pictures. 

We've always done weekend vacations to Orlando, but not a long vacation since our honeymoon. So I'm happy to say that here's to planning a fun adventure before I'm 30. And of course, adding  a check on that bucket list. 

An Exciting Journey

Bear with me. This pictures took some extra, extra! effort to edit; and even then they didn't come out exactly how I wanted them. But oh well, I like this outfit too much to not post it.

Changing the subject a bit. Tomorrow my church band and I will be traveling to Atlanta GA to record some of our original songs. We are so beyond thankful and excited God has opened this opportunity and so grateful for Eagle's Landing Church for opening their doors and offering to help in this exciting journey.

 See you all in a week! Atlanta here we come!!!

Denim on Denim and Hat

Hello everyone! As promised here is a new outfit post, after my short trip to Georgia, to see my brother in law graduate from basic training. 

I have a lot of pics to edit from the trip, so hopefully I get those ready for a Georgia post! 

It was a lot of fun, but remember when I said I love road trips? well... to be more specific I love 4 hour road trips because the 10 hour one was murder!!! lol!! I just don't think I could do that again.

Here Im wearing my romper from Urban Outfitters. I love that store, and I'm thinking on working there in the future :) 

This was my first romper purchase about 3 years ago and till this day it's the comfiest cutest navy denim romper ever! 

See how I've styled this romper HERE and HERE :)
