wild sweet orange



dress/belt: thrifted // tights: target // boots: forever 21 // earrings: diy




Man, this was such a crazy, fun outfit to wear! I love the loud, obnoxious outfits that I feel confident in, and this was definitely one of them. I can't wait for the summer months when I can turn this dress into a shirt and wear it with shorts, or even just without tights. Here in Oregon we are starting to get a couple really hot days (okay, those days are only like 65 degrees, but to me they're hot), so I'm crossing my fingers that we will get a lot of sun!




It's the last week of school before spring break, and I'm feeling that final stretch of anticipation before a break. It's only Monday and I've already written two papers? What is this nonsense! And I have four more I have to write this week. Oh my goodness. But hopefully I'll actually stay on top of my work for once and get things done before unknown hours of the night. We shall see. Come on spring break, hurry up! I'll be going home for the week, so it will be back to snow and cold and I'm hoping it will be all pretty so I can take just a few more snow pictures before it all melts. A couple days ago my mom posted a picture on facebook with all the snow and I'm praying that it will still be there in a week! Just one more week.





Well now I'm off to write yet another paper. Hope you have a really awesome week!

my week in instagram #39 + weekly roundup



my art history notes, which had a major lack of actual notes // Ansel Adams took mirror selfies too! // when I found out my piece made it into the student art show // a flag of a secret alliance made my by friends // the art room // modeling for watercolor painters // cutting my hair // the end result // getting pretty for the student art show

This week has been a big blur, actually. There have been moments of a lot of excitement, and then moments where I just want to sleep for the rest of my life. But all in all it was pretty good. Let's hope next week is even better!

film friday: take a seat & make a friend



I'll let this video speak for itself. It's so cool to see first hand how connected we all are and how people form relationships.

colly strings



dress: borrowed // boots: gift // socks: forever 21





First of all, is it really already Thursday? I swear, the time just flies by so quickly. I can't believe in just a week and a half it will be spring break, and then I'll practically be done with my first year of college. No, make it stop! I want time to run just a little bit slower so I can enjoy this college experience even more!




But for now, in the days leading up to spring break, I'm being kept busy with art projects and tests and papers, which is fun. One of my pieces was selected to be in the student art show, which will be opening tonight. I was incredibly excited for that because I didn't even think my stuff would get in, and only half to a third of all the entries made it into the ~80 piece show. It definitely reaffirms that I at least should continue pursuing photography, since recently I've been having a lot of mixed feelings about (which I'll talk about in a later blog post). So that's where I'll be tonight, hanging out with other super creative people and looking at beautiful art. If that's not a better way to spend a Thursday night, then I don't know what is!





Have a great day everyone!
