The Big 3-0

This past weekend ushered in a new era - I turned 30! While I'm still reflecting and sorting out my mix of emotions about the momentous birthday, I'm feeling quite content overall. I don't have everything figured out, but as years pass, I grow more sure of who I am. To celebrate, I went out with fabulous friends for a night of dinner, drinks and dancing. My actual birthday was low-key and filled with many of my favorite things, including brunch, IPA, Big Buck Hunter and an indie flick at a favorite local theater.

Back At It

When it comes to blogging, I have been such a slouch lately! The last month was spent making progress on some exciting projects, crafting like crazy and enjoying Christmastime. While I've been spending more than my fair share of time in sweats lately, I did wear some blog-worthy outfits over the holidays. I must have been having too much fun because I plum forgot to take pictures. Now the New Year is here and (gasp!) my 30th birthday near. I'll try to get properly dressed and actually document it a bit more often in 2016!

Postcards from Mexico

Island Time

 I recently spent a few dreamy days on the beaches of Mexico. While most of my stay was spent in a swimsuit and cover-up, I did put on real clothes a couple of times. All the bright colors of both the natural landscape and architecture were so aesthetically inspiring, and I thought this vibrant vintage frock was well-suited to the surroundings. More vacation pictures to come!

Happy Camper

While I'm not much of a camper myself, I do love hanging out in the woods. When some friends ventured out into a majestic, mossy swath of land at Mount Hood, I crashed the campsite for a few hours. That quick visit was enticing enough that I plan to actually spend the night next time.
