The Reason I Hold On is Because I Need This Hole Gone

I want you to stay
oh, stay

This song; every time it comes on the radio I need to blast it and sing along, heartfelt and out of key. There’s no one out of my life that I wish had stayed, yet I’m completely smitten with today’s song of the day. Not to mention this perfect, bold and bright hued skirt for Spring form the Prabal Gurung for Target Collaboration. Seriously, one of my favorite Target collabs ever; my only regret is not getting the black paneled dress and any of the shoes. I figured it’d go perfectly, and in breezy seasonably, with this vintage crop top (I got it from Express a million years ago, that counts as vintage, right!?) and added a little future with the holographic clutch. And who would I be without a little leather? The only thing I’m missing is some glam jewels. As I grow older I find my styles change and mature; long gone are the days are bright costume jewelry, welcome to the days of timeless and priceless pieces with the REAL glam flare of glitz and glamour.

I Love the Place Where We Shared Our Tiny Grace

but just because it’s real don’t mean it’s gonna work
I was out of your league, at a distance that I didn’t wanna see

I was all sorts of pale for this Valentine’s Day, jeeze. I spent it on the daily grind, helping my father prepare a cute night for my mother, then socializing with other single pals and plenty of wine! Hope you all had a good Valentine’s Day, in a relationship or not! Also, please excuse any shakiness and imperfections in these images, I asked my father for help and he hasn’t the greatest eye for proper blogger composition! What can ya do?

As the Sky Darkens

Chipped neon nail polish and plenty of exposed skin. Summer, please don’t end. I never want to wear more than a casual leather jacket, draped across endlessly freckled shoulders.

Maybe these dreams could come true…I’ll keep you posted.

Blue and Gold

Fun little, slightly overdressed, ensemble I wore to dinner last night with an old friend. I always seem to be over dressed in this suburban town, can’t wait to be back city dwelling!

Saturday Adventures

Casual adventures and errands on the first sunny day (and a Saturday to boot!) in what feels like weeks! Went on a walk with family, friends, and furs, then a dinner lunch and flower shopping! A splendid day out, if I may say so myself.

The First Taste of Spring

March 8th and we had our first real taste of spring. With the temperature at 67 degrees I was able to ditch my over-worn denim for a skirt and tank top; finally!

I spent the day enjoying some alone time driving WITHOUT music; I rarely do that and I got so lost in thought I’d even forget that there was no noise, just me and my thoughts !Had a lovely meeting at a tattoo shop, then hung out with a friend, getting drunk of Butterscotch Pinnacle before bars and eventually, into dreamland and sleep.

Tell Me Lies, Tell Me Sweet Little Lies

March first, and here in the NorthEast we’re ringing in the month with a lovely little snowstorm. The roads are horrible, yet during the daylight I decided to brave the weather and go hang with some old friends with some cocktails at Applebee’s and some thrifting.

 

Found this lovely sequined “Rainbow Fish” cardigan that my friend graciously bought for me <33

We Met at Woodstock and Were Done by the Winter

Winter bohemian chic, the third look styled by my lovely roommate. Flare jeans aren’t really my steez, so putting me in these was definitely going outside my usual style but the outcome was so great!
