a few things.

i went for a drive on sunday.

i was a little grumpy that day. until driving up the dirt road i found a beautiful spot that made me yell to stop the car. and i finally got the perfect exposure on the shot i wanted...... and then i skipped up the hill back to my car. needless to say i was happy again.

today as i was putting a wedding dress back on a mannequin i thought to myself.....

wedding dresses just arent as special as they used to be. i've been jaded and its kind of a bummer. just the way i carry them isn't as special. i scroll through bridal blogs and name every dress that i recognize. its sad....and i just hope that when it comes to finding my own (which i have NO idea what it will look like..even though i see lots of options) it will still feel like a special dress.

speaking of special dresses...went to u of u homecoming this weekend. got all dolled up and out to a fancy restaurant for dinner. i felt special and real pretty. love to have a reason to dress up.

ive decided this fall i want to wear collared button up shirts. i've always loved the look of them but have never actually worn them. this year it will be done! worn with sweaters over the top and with rolled up sleeves....

oh that, and rain boots with long socks worn underneath with a skirt. i will be investing in a cute pair from target when i get paid this week.

pinterest inspires me.

recently ive been reminded how much i love to give little gifts/cards just because i love them. it makes me feel good. it makes them feel good. and its exciting. need to do that more often.

newest favorite show. new girl. freaking hilarious! love zooey deschanel.

going to take pictures with my favorite desiree tomorrow in the fall weather. love her....
