LOVING LATELY

a destination | So typical, but I want to go to Paris again pronto!

a hairstyle | I love how simple and chic this look is! It also looks like a great hairstyle for the hot months ahead because it will keep my hair out of my face.

a diy | I saw this paper chandelier on Martha Stewart Weddings. I thought that it was so pretty and I would love to emulate it in the future!

an item | Croissant and green cake stands? Yes please!

a wish | Wishing for these Warby Parker glasses! Next purchase? I think yes!

LOVING LATELY

  All photos via my pinterest

I hope everyone had a great weekend! My weekend was full of laughs, baked french toast and english television series. On Saturday the temperature rose to 50 degrees. I was glad that I didn't have to wear a coat, but was amazed at the people out wearing sleeveless shirts! It just goes to show how much people appreciate spring. However, now my yard is covered in 5 in. of breathtaking snow! While, I might be craving spring, the snow definitely is marvelous and never loses any of its beauty!

copying | This look is gorgeous, I would love to re-create it someday in the near future (flowers and all).

doing | I will be wrapping my secret valentine's present in a similar style! 

admiring | The amazing streets of Savannah, Georgia! The charm and delights of the city place it high on my travel list! 

planning | As soon as I have a home of my own, there will be bistro chairs around the table!
Then I can imagine that I am eating in a little cafe in Paris.

LOVING LATELY

With the eastern half of the country engulfed in the polar vortex and freezing temperatures, it is easy to fall into the winter blues. I can't remember the last winter when we had sub-zero temperatures! (Apparently in the decades I have been living, the weather has been more mild than usual.) At least the snow has been really pretty! Another nice thing is that school has been delayed for the past week, so I have been able to catch a couple more hours of sleep!
In order to keep up my spirits, I compiled a list of the things the I have been loving lately.

wishing | I am wishing that is was summer and I was on the Amalfi Coast! Dreams can come true right?

eating | Though I haven't actually eaten these yet, I can't wait until I have the chance to make these mocha scones. It sounds like a delicious way to indulge on a lovely Saturday morning. 

wearing |  As seen in this post, this striped shirt has become a staple in my wardrobe. It goes with everything and is extremely comfortable.

attempting |  Why not change up my ordinary neutral polish and try gold glitter? 

reading | I have been reading my favorite Jane Austen book, Emma. It will forever remain a classic! Sometimes I like to think that I have the same match-making skills as Emma herself! 

discovering | One week ago I started living a healthier lifestyle. Even in such a short amount of time, I already feel much better and my confidence has increased. It is so nice to feel good about yourself knowing that you are fueling your body with good nutrients.

I would love to know what you all have been loving lately! Tell me in the comments!

MORNING IN BED

A MORNING IN BED

1 | 2 | 3 | 4

This school year has been one of the most stressful of my life. My high-school years are coming to an end and college is going to be here at any minute. It has made me realize just how much I take for granted, such as getting a good 8 hours of sleep! My mom assures me that it is just a part of growing up ("woo-hoo"). These days I am just grateful to sleep in until 9:00 a.m. on a Saturday instead of taking standardized tests! A lot of my friends are taking the ACT tomorrow and I am so glad that I am not one of them! Tomorrow I am going to sleep in and relish my few moments of peace!
This would be my ideal version of a morning in bed with nothing to worry about! I would light a candle re-read Jane Austen books and take as long as I want to in order to get ready!
This is going to sound so cheesy, but in a world where there is so much chaos, I can at least be grateful for a roof over my head and the opportunity to make something of myself!


Don't forget to follow along!
