Stripes for a Steal

  It seems like the weather has finally started shaping up here in Seattle!             For all the complaining that I do about our gloomy weather, it is all worth it in the end for the beautiful summers that we have here. Keep that on the down low though, Seattle…

Tiptoe Through the Tulips

  Washington is famous for a few things; off the top of your head you might think of coffee, seafood, grunge, rain, and more coffee. One thing you might not have guessed though, is that we are pretty famous for our Tulip Festival! Every April, about an hour north of Seattle in the Skagit Valley you will…

Bigger on the Inside

  So this is an annoying thing I’ve struggled with, basically since the day I got my first cell phone (Nokia 5110 anyone? No, just me? I think I just dated myself a little). There is just never a good place to store your phone when you’re out and about. For me personally, I end…

Still Walking in a Winter Wonderland

  So, I have a bit of a bitter bone to pick with the fashion world lately. I keep seeing all these posts and ads about spring fashion, the weather warming up, and how excited everyone is to put their winter coats away. Well, if you live in the Pacific Northwest, especially Washington, you know that…

Seattle Staycation

  There is nothing like a little staycation to really make you appreciate the area you are from. I feel like this has been a common theme for me lately.     Nick was in a wedding over the weekend, and instead of figuring out transportation to and from our place to the venue etc.,…

My Own Mary Poppins Bag

  I’m just not going to get over my trip to Port Townsend. It was my first taste of nice weather and the outdoors since the weather turned, and that always gives me a happy high on how beautiful this state is for the next few weeks. It got me thinking about all the camping,…

It’s About Time.

Can I talk about a silly insecurity I have for a minute? It’s pretty silly, and I completely acknowledge that it probably makes no sense. Anyways, I have never liked wearing anything on my wrists. Not bracelets, not watches, not anything. The reason for this being that my wrists are super tiny, I feel like…

The Pacific Northwest is my Backyard

  I know this is crazy, but sometimes I totally forget how incredible Washington is. I know, right, how nuts is that? I think sometimes I get so in to my own routine, and places, that I forget to take advantage of this amazing state! Luckily for me, I have a great group of outdoorsy…

We put the “West” in Pacific Northwest

  I’ve been debating what I wanted to share for my first post of 2017 for a few days now. I don’t know why I felt like it had to be something special, but it’s a new year, and I wanted to commemorate it somehow! Resolutions aren’t really my thing, although I did make one this…

New Friends, and New Places

I can’t believe all the wonderful people I have met through blogging so far. In just three and a half short months I have made so many new friends. There is such a lovely community of creatives in the Seattle area, and I am so honored to know the ones I do! I finally got…
