On a recent trip to Portland, my friends and I stopped by the mall to do some shopping. Since I live in a super rainy state where I walk everywhere, I knew I had to buy some good boots, so I snatched up this pair. I am basically in love with them. I'm the worst person ever when it comes to heels, because I am incredibly picky since I don't always have the best balance. So I am so glad I found these because not only are they super pretty, but I can actually walk in them.





Also a couple weeks ago I got my blue streak in my hair redyed and now it's fun purple! This color fades to pink over time, so it will be fun to see the process of that. I love having fun colors in my hair. Every time I see it, it makes me smile.




Have a great day you guys!

fallin' for you

Hello everybody! Let's just take a moment to appreciate how marvelous all the beautiful fall leaves are! I am so so in love with all the beautiful colors. Every time my friends and I go on walks, I purposely walk in the piles of leaves. I always feel like a kid again crunching in the leaves. The fall here is seriously so gorgeous and I kind of want it to be fall all the time.




The camera is my friend Jenna's grandfather's. I love being able to hold a piece of history because it has so many stories. Just think of all the locations and memories this camera captured. I can only imagine Jenna's grandpa carrying this around. I wonder if he thought that one day I would hold the same thing? That's why I love vintage things, because their stories are limitless.




Can you believe that it's already Friday? Hope you have a great day!

I wore this outfit to the Bombay Bicycle Club concert and have worn a couple other variations since then. I seriously love being able to borrow other people's clothes. It really opens up your options and I've been able to explore and hone in my personal style. I really love mixing patterns so much, I don't think I can wear anything without contrasting patterns. And the joy of having friends with cute closets is that I can experiment without having to buy a million things. But it also makes me realize how few basic pieces I actually have. My own closet, I've had many people say, seems like the inside of a drama closet (I literally have things in there from my high school's drama department), which is cool for quirky pieces but not so much basics. Even though I'm a poor college student now, I definitely will one day start working on building a more functional wardrobe that has good basic pieces that are easier to wear multiple times.





The first ring is from Matt. We got each other rings as 1 1/2 anniversary presents before we moved, and I recently got it resized to fit my finger. It makes me super happy when I look down at it, because it reminds me of him and he is pretty awesome.

The second ring is from an antique shop here in Oregon. It was only six dollars and fit my finger perfectly, so of course I had to snatch it up. I like to imagine it was someone's wedding ring, but then I wonder why it was given up, and why it was sold for only six dollars (pretty sure the stones aren't real, so that's probably why), but it's fun to think of a story to go with a piece like that.






I can't believe it's already Thursday. Hope you guys have a great day!
