photos for a rainy day.

1. These endless April showers BETTER be bringing me some May flowers.
2. Streams in the Desert. I HIGHLY recommend it.
3. These bakery cookies are to DIE for. Why do mine never turn out like this?

candy corn baby.

Randomly came across this precious photo on Pinterest. Is this not the funniest and sweetest thing EVER?!

sick day = easter parade!

Yesterday I was feeling pretty sick - and so I didn't make it to yoga at 8am or PR writing at noon...
Instead, I lounged around and in between naps, watched this.

Have you SEEN Easter Parade?
I LOVE old movies. And I love Judy Garland.
Happy to be feeling much better today. I can only handle lounging around for so long... And TOMORROW is Friday!

dress shop... on a vintage bus?

Is this not the the most brilliant thing you have ever seen? A bus turned thrift shop! Greatest business idea ever. I don't know how I have not heard about this yet - but this bus stays parked in Portland! I have HAVE to see this the next time I go to P-town.
To learn more about the bus and shop owner go here.

a photo-worthy closet!

I woke up and saw this post from Song of Style. Do you not LOVE this closet?!
Living in a co-op with 47 other girls comes with so many perks and blessings, however closet space is something that is lacking... Every year my roommates and I marvel at how much clothes I manage to cram into such a tight space. It always works out! But, I LOVE LOVE LOVE this closet and will be taking notes for when I get more space. JUNE is approaching quickly!

when in rome...

Love this image of a very adorable (and funny!) blogger.

It reminds me of one of my all-time faaaavorite movies: The Roman Holiday, starring my loves Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck. MAGICAL and brilliant.

I want to wear an exact replica of both these outfits! Unfortunately, Corvallis is just not ready for this yet. Haha.

you should see my desk.

worth watching...

SO.
If you are into photography, you should definitely watch this show called FRAMED
This episode is about a street style photographer from Portland - loved her!

two things...

1. So this little piece I wrote ran in the OSU Barometer today.

2. We are having fajitas and peanut-butter pie for dinner. BAM.

I love my life.

sunday!

Today I spent at my parent's home. Playing monopoly and watching some show about poachers... clearly my day was CRAZY. And now I am just delaying the inevitable. HOMEWORK calls my name.

Meet Adam, "Garfield", and Jonathan.
Although...I'm pretty sure that they just discovered, after a YEAR, that Garfield is a female. Oopsies! Do I see kitties in the near future?!
Okay. Off to writing about mac-n-cheese for my food writing class!

eggs for a cure?!

"Lavish your daughter with eggs. And affection. A girl's heart is a stouter organ than realized."

~ said the doctor from this miniseries set in 1840's England. Brilliant and hilarious!

sunshine...

...really makes me happy. And morning coffee on the front porch? BEST way to start my day. Something about lounging around in the sun feels luxurious. LOVE IT. I couldn't be happier that spring is finally HERE!

new issue!

So, the lovely Matchbook Magazine has just released their online April edition.

This is reason to celebrate. I have loved this magazine ever since it's debut in February - it's a fashion and lifestyle magazine that is very tasteful and inspiring with ZERO trash. LOVE IT!
