I've got sunshine



Well, I've been absent from this blog for a while; I had my wisdom teeth pulled and then my computer broke, so it hasn't been the best two weeks. I will do my best to keep blogging with whatever I can find until my computer is fixed (fingers crossed that it can be) or until I can buy a new one. I've been pretty busy with school and then spending all of my time hibernating otherwise as it is absolutely freezing here; although these shots were taken on a lovely mild day. I am, however, excited to be sharing some news with you all shortly enough about an exciting collaboration...just waiting for the right time ;) I'm also wanting to give this blog a little makeover, as soon as I can get my hands on a proper computer ^.^
I hope you are all having a lovely January and are staying warm!

ekimo panda









The snow has come back with a vengeance. There is constant white fluff falling from the sky, and it's really beautiful. After classes one day, my sister and I went back to the trails behind our campus and explore while the snow continued to fall heavily upon us. This hat from Urban Outfitters had  kept me warm and kept my ears covered nicely. And so I'm happy to say that it is practical and adorable :) I get smiles and compliments every time I wear it ^.^ It's adorable!

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

best cardigan award

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 ;)
