hello world

i am alive. i apologize for my weekly blogging droughts - work has been exhausting & by the time i get home, i'm more than ready for tv time with B.

currently obsessed with:

{adding a little glitter to your ring finger nail}

{this bcbg pleated maxi skirt}

{these elizabeth & james eyeglasses}

i literally cannot wait for fall fashion.

dying to wear amazing jackets, wide-leg trousers, faux fur, leather boots & booties.

plus whatever else that fantastic season brings!

however, this morning i'm up early & ready to enjoy a sunshine-filled day with my girlies! recently, i've most enjoyed waking up by 7:30 on saturdays, my husband does not understand it the least bit. there's something rewarding about having a load of laundry finished by 8:15. hey, the early bird gets the worm, right?

currently, i'm sitting on our patio, overlooking the town of delafield, enjoying a very large bowl of cheerios. it's a beautiful morning - the church bell just rang (signaling 8:30), birds are chip-chirping at each other and those late-summer cicadas have made their arrival. my mama most always has a cup of coffee on the front porch this time of year; i can still remember the feel of the cool concrete on my toes while sitting next to her as a child. i love memories like that.

{side note: those cicadas remind me of going back to school - yuck. yet, they also remind me of this time last year when B & i were planning the last details of our wedding - yum.}

speaking of wedding, i just received great news from our photographer (krakora studios) that our wedding is going to be featured on Style Me Pretty! i'm totally jazzed - will keep you posted on details!

this afternoon, i'm making the trek back to madison for a pool day with two of my best girls - molly & krystle. i can't wait for lots of laughter & lots of sunshine! 

xo.
