Ten Thing Tuesday

1. I'm feeling horribly sick as I write this : headache, fever, and sore throat. 

2. This photo was taken by my lovely best friend, Serena. 

3. It's been snowing in Boston, and I'm terribly jealous of them. 

4. I woke up at 8am this morning; that's the earliest I've been up since I was in Costa Rica. 

5. Though I desperately want to switch all my cosmetics over to all natural ingredients, I'm very intimidated by the task. 

6. I can't for the life of me decide between studying abroad in Amsterdam, Netherlands or Segovia, Spain.

7. I love the smell of Christmas trees, and burn candles that smell like them all year round.

8. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, and I'm extremely excited that it's less than a month away!

9. I like Thanksgiving not for the food (since I hate Turkey) but because it's no doubt one of the coziest days of the year, and it means I can finally start watching Christmas movies. 

10. Thinking of 10 things that aren't totally mundane is pretty difficult, so I'll leave 10 as is. 

It's been a while.

Alrighty guys, I know it's been quite a while since I last posted. I was in Costa Rica for a while and by the time I got back, I just had forgotten the routine of regular posts. I've realized that I'd rather have this blog to post inspiration, my photography, projects I do, places I go, as well as my personal style interspersed throughout. 

I'm excited for this change; I think it will be better for everyone. 

Here are a few photos from recent fall exploration I went on. 

Hopefully you lovely people didn't forget about me! 

Turning Green

(Dress: Free People, Shoes: UO, Hat: Italy)

Oh man, guys, this dress is one of my favorite things ever right now. I absolutely adore the pattern on the skirt, and the crochet top! Free People, you've done it again. The dress I've been dreaming of that can be dressed up or down perfectly is right here. I feel like a dress that you feel pretty in, and also super comfortable in is something every girl should have. I've gotta thank Marshall's for mine! 

It's a given these days that my Mary Jane's accompany most outfits, and this was no exception. They're seriously the best summer shoes. I originally got them for Costa Rica (since I needed closed toe shoes) but I've been wearing them non stop here as well. Long story short, PLEASE go pick up a pair from UO. You won't be sorry, I promise.

I'm so so sorry for the lack of posts recently, things have been crazy! I'm off to Costa Rica for a month long volunteer trip this Sunday, so this week has been pretty much been me frantically trying to get ready. 

A Rolling Stone

(Dress: Vintage, Hat & Sandals: Free People, Purse: Italy)

There are few things I love more than a good vintage dress. This one I especially love since it's both denim and floral! It was originally floor length, but I knew I'd wear it more often as a mini, so I made it shorter. I broke out my old huarache sandals from last summer today as well, I thought they paired well with the dress. 

I hope everyone enjoyed Father's day! I spent mine down at the beach with my family and had a wonderful time. 

As for me, I'll be busy packing and getting ready for my trip to Costa Rica all week! Plus my little brother graduates from high school this Tuesday. Busy busy busy, but I'll be sure to post as often as I can!
