I was enchanted to meet you

Happy Tuesday ^.^ I am in a good mood because of all of the warm weather we've shockingly been granted lately. It feels much like spring when the snow turns to slush and the air is warm...it's wonderful. It also makes me want to pull out my favorite spring dresses, of which this is one of. Other than the unique color, my favorite thing about this dress is the vintage feel it gives. Anyway, the sun is shining and I'm going to take advantage of it. Have a lovely week x

we are alive, we will survive this

We were hit with a huge snow storm last night, which is normal for this time of year, but none the less, snow banks are up to my knees and I can only walk where the plows have gone. Obviously I would never be walking without a coat,hat, etc. I shed them quickly to snap a few photos of whatever I'm wearing on that day. Photos of the few coats I have will get boring very quickly and so I will have to suffer through a few minutes of being cold in order to keep this blog  interesting. My second semester has already begun, and I'm a little sad that my hibernating days are over and I have to leave my house every day again...on the other hand, I'm excited to finish everything and start a new adventure! Anyway, I've had these items in my closet for a long time and never seem to tire of them. I own way too many lace white/cream dresses but never seem to stop myself from buying them when I see a new one, no matter how many I've collected.

I hope you all have a beautiful week ^.^ stay warm x

I'm so thankful I was able to capture these photos BEFORE the freezing -35 weather we're experiencing now. It's a shame because this is when I begin to crave spring and I need to suffer through 4 months of snow still :( Ah well, with work, school and everything else, I will hopefully be busy enough for time to fly by. Anyway, all I've been doing this past week is relaxing, cuddling up in cozy sweaters and hot drinks, spending time with Gavin and working on my art. This is the perfect way for me to end my holidays before I enter my final semester at school. I feel focused and rested (which doesn't happen often); and although I become restless in the winter months; cute, comfy sweaters like this one certainly help ;)

Merry Christmas!

Well, it's christmas eve, and I just wanted to wish everyone a merry christmas! I'm at home right now and loving every second of it. I know a lot of people let the stress of the holidays get to them but I firmly never let myself get to that point and don't believe anyone else should either. As long as family and loved ones are together, we should all let the excess stress wash away. Seeing everyone, having dinner together is really the greatest thing. Especially once everyone is grown and has left the house and it becomes hard to have family gatherings. The food, the lights, the conversation and laughs, it's truly a magical time of year and I hope you are all enjoying it as much as I am. Happy Holidays x

Tis the season

4 days until christmas! I'm so excited; I'm having a chrsitmas dinner tonight before I travel back home. Anyway, I opened another early \christmas gift (although now it's wrapped up again and I won't see it until Christmas morning): this dress ^.^ I have been lusting after this dress for quite sometime and I'm actually pretty happy it ended up being a gift. It will be a lovely Christmas dress, and potentially new years dress as well.

I will try to post as much as possible in the next few days, I love sharing details about the holidays ^.^

Early gifts

Well it's Monday and I am so excited to be starting a new week considering how crazy busy last week was. One good (maybe a little bad) thing about last week, however, was that Gavin and I sort of gave in and handed each other a few early Christmas presents. I am absolutely in love with these items; especially the hat, it's my dream hat and from forever21. These were taken after I wrote my final exam and explored the trails behind campus one last time as I won't be returning for almost a month. By the end of the week I will be in my home town and I'm so excited! My presents are wrapped and I am pretty much ready to go. All that's left to do is work a couple of shifts and pack a suitcase ^.^

I'm writing this post in a very happy mood because I've just written my final exam for the semester; which means (other than work) I am free to relax and enjoy the holidays ^.^  lately all I can seem to wear are holiday clothes; which means a lot of red, green, plaid and cozy sweaters. I plan on using my free time this week to do absolutely nothing but drink tea and prepare gifts as in a week I will be home and traveling very frequently throughout the rest of the holiday season. I'm not complaining though, I absolutely love it and can't wait!
