I started following Tania, founder of Olive + Piper’s fashion blog when I first started my own blog in 2012. I loved her personal style, but it was her humor that that I adored. Actually, she’s pretty fucking hilarious. I remember reading some of her blog posts and laughed so hard that my cheeks hurt. Her personality shined through her writing and it was quite refreshing to read fashion blogs that’s also hilarious…So when she started Olive + Piper, naturally I became a huge fan and supporter.

I have to apologize in advance for the excessive twirling. I can’t help myself, it’s like when I put on this skirt, it just made me do it. :) Hope you’re having a wonderful Monday and Happy President’s Day!

The Gamble Garden is truly a little piece of paradise tucked away in the middle of a busy world. It is a gem and has a very special place in my heart. My favorite time of year to come here is May when all the flowers are fully bloomed and the garden is surrounded with the sweet scent of gardenias and roses… When they say “the best things in life are free,” I think they had this little garden in mind. Or maybe they were referring to love… :)
The winner of my OASAP heart printed demin shorts is Abby A.! Congrats! I will send you an email shortly to confirm shipping information
Florals, stripes, geometrics, chevron, polka dots, abstracts, paisley, embroidery, sequins and embellishments has dominated my closet for what feels like forever so you can imagine the thrill when I realized how awesome mixing prints and patterns together no longer clashes. Well, this “trend” is nothing new, but there’s always something new and refreshing every time (see them again here, here, here, here, and here).
Adding to the mix are my current favorite accessories, this alpine gold necklace from Olive + Piper and this inexpensive-but-pretty-awesome-aviators. I have been looking for blue/purple aviators and can’t believe I found them from H&M for $7. Score!

I was pretty thrilled over the weekend because we have another new lens to play with and I’m madly in love (helloooo ultra wide angles). Nate is dipping his feet more into photography and I am so proud of him, and of course offered myself to be his guinea pig for photos anytime he needs them (haha). Well, I hope your weekend was an eventful one and you’re all rested up for another week of life. xoxo
