My Little Blueberry Hill


Outfit Details: Blazer (gift) Dress (Target) Necklace (Vintage) Booties (White Mountain) 

This little hill is one of my favorite places on earth, especially after summer when everything starts to change colors. (See more here and here) My mom always says it reminders her of Blueberries for Sal. 

This dress is also a favorite and a rare occasion where my wardrobe doesn't contain a thing from TJmaxx. 

Hope you're having a bright November!

Rainy Days and My Umbrella

Outfit details: Jacket & Dress (TJmaxx) Tights & Umbrella (Target) Necklace & Ring (Vintage) Bracelet & Boots (Amazon)

If the opportunity presents itself, I promise you I'm bringing out my umbrella. I have a great love for rainy days and not just because it's perfect book weather.

Mermaid Aspirations



 Outfit Details: Dress & Jacket (TJmaxx) Necklace (Vintage) Boots (White Mountain) 

I'm still waiting to wake up one morning a mermaid, if just for one day. 

Maine's rocky shores are what stole my heart some four years ago. I woke up early that first day in Maine and stumbled out to watch the sunrise and that was it, I knew Maine was going to be my next home.

Maine continues to catch me off guard and days like this one where the wind pulls the fog in over the shores, I really can't imagine living anywhere else.

That One Shirt

Outfit Details: Shirt (forever21) Shorts & Booties (TJmaxx) Sweater (second-hand) Necklace (vintage)

Do you ever find yourself owning a shirt that you love, but just can't figure out how to wear? This is that shirt. I've owned it some five years and I think I'm finally getting the hang of it. Well, maybe.

Hope everyone's summer is sunny and warm with a couple of rainy days for catching up on Netflix.

Green Hair and Apple Blossoms

Outfit Details:
Shirt & Skirt & Tights: Kohl's
Necklace: Vintage
Boots: gift

I can't stay away from spring blossoms, and between the apples and magnolia trees, the blossoms are always gorgeous come April. Of course, these photos are a little dated, and currently outside my window it's snowing. But I supposed that just means a glimpse back at spring is all the more appreciated.

Woodland Fairy

 Outfit Details:
Pastry Shopping Dress & Ring: Modcloth
Skirts: Maurices
Vest: can't remember
Sandles: Charlotte Russe
Bracelet: Ebay
Necklace: Vintage

When I edit my photos I adjust color, sharpness, and brightness. From time to time I've covered up blemishes. When I was editing these pictures I noticed the bruises on my legs, which I always have. But I decided to leave them be. My bruises are part of my character, I bruise easily. Plus, might it not be that woodland fairies have some war marks to boast of? I definitely think so.


Oh, and . . . Happy New Year!

How to Rock High Waisted Shorts


Outfit Details:
Shirt: TJmaxx
Shorts & Hat: Forever21
Boots & Bracelet & Necklace: Ebay
Ring: Vintage
Tights & Socks: Target

I recently had to put my old laptop to bed and I've been slowly breaking in my new one, which means I've been without any photo editing software for a while - or at least one I like. But now I'm back on track with my old trusty program. I'm also learning to accept my new laptop. I may not like it yet, especially not as much as my old one, but we're growing to live with each other.

And yes, I love matching my socks to the rest of my outfit. I also love matching my socks to my hair or matching my hair to my outfit. I'm lucky I can do this and no one stares, okay this is a lie. People stare, but this is because I don't brush my hair and I have strange lace covering my legs. I don't regret it at all.

Happy first day of winter and happy birthday to my awesome mummy!

Don't Forget the Tags

Outfit Details
Sweater & Dress & Tights: Target
Necklace: Vintage
Belt: Kohl's
Bracelet: Ebay
Rock the Weekend Ring: Modcloth
Boots: Hottopic

The moral of these pictures are don't forget to take off the tags on your new purchases. I was taking off my sweater and it got stuck on the tag on my dress. It wasn't like I had already been to a few shops and stopped to drink coffee in my local cafe. Psh, wearing your tags is the high fashion, isn't it?

Where the Mountains and Sea Meet

 
Outfit Details:
Jacket & Shirt & Jeans: TJmaxx
Long Sleeve Shirt: Target
Boots: Ebay
Necklace: Vintage
Scarf: Paris
Earrings: Gift

Taking pictures in the bright sun is to be avoided unless the background is too gorgeous to miss out on. This spot is my favorite, perhaps, of all the little places I've found in my new land. I climbed to the top and the wind took me the rest of the way up. This little land where the sea and the mountains meet is magical. No one may really deny that.

Red Leaves and Harbor Views

Outfit Details: 
Sweater: TJmaxx
Shirt: Forever21
Pants: Target
Scarf: Paris
Boots: Ebay
Ring: Vintage

Fall is a beautiful time of year when bright colors and crunching leaves play in the roads and sidewalks all around. Boats are wrapped to prepare for winter's cold breath, and the streets begin to thin out. This was one of the last true fall days we had in the midst of early November. I'd say I miss autumn, but I find myself admiring every season more and more - perhaps it is just nature in itself I admire. 

Outfits like these have become a staple of mine, easy to pull together in a moment and weather appropriate for whatever the season is kicking at my door. I find they are the best for adventures - and that, of course, is the best kind of clothing: the adventure kind!

The Rainy Harbor

Outfit Details:
Sweater: second hand
Scarf: Paris
Shirt & Jeans: TJmaxx
Boots: Ebay
Purse & Umbrella: Target
Ring: Vintage
Earrings: Gift

My weekends send me off to my favorite bakery for my chocolate croissants. On the best weather days, obviously even on the muggy ones, I enjoy them in the park. The bakery has closed for the winter, but I can still sit back and recall their deliciousness.

I love so much about these pictures: from my umbrella to my sweater to the fog embracing the harbor. This sweater was rescued from the lost and found at the inn I worked at this summer after a guest declined to have it shipped back. I swiped it up. I had been eyeing it since the moment it showed up. Here's to the little things.
