Cow Hollow Sunshine

Good morning, loves! Our neighborhood is so beautiful right now! Everything is starting to bloom and the streets are starting to become more and more colorful. Understated floral details are so lovely this time of year, and I love this off-the-shoulder top from Modern Vintage Boutique for that reason!

Patrick and I have been so busy lately, so we didn’t even think about planning anything for my Birthday (I’m not big on Birthday celebrations for myself… just like to spend the day with loved ones!). But yesterday when I got home, Patrick said that he booked a night stay for us somewhere within a 3-hour drive from San Francisco, but won’t tell me where! All he said is that it is a casual place and that we will be going on a hike (what I asked for!!). Any guesses on where we are going?! I have no idea!!

As I get older, and because of what I do for a living, I care less and less about material things and more about experiences. About 3 years ago, Patrick and I decided that for every big occasion we would go on trips together, rather than buying each other presents. I swear it was the best decision we have ever made!!

Laced Up in Grey

Good morning, guys! I hope you survived Black Friday! Now enough about Black Friday, let’s talk about Grey Saturday. I’m talking about Grey everything, and it is one of my favorite looks in the Fall. I love this look for a gloomy Fall Day when you want to be cuddled up in something cozy, but still look cute. This is one of my favorite sweaters. The gold and lace-up details are perfection. I got it from HER Boutique and have been wearing it on repeat to family gatherings and casual get-togethers!

Peach Pleats

I wore this top on Snapchat a couple weeks ago and got so many messages asking where I got it. It has definitely been my go-to top lately because it’s perfect for so many different occasions. I’ll have to admit, at first I wasn’t sure how I felt about the sleeves being detached, but have realized that it’s actually genius! I have always loved off the shoulder tops and love that they are having their “moment” in the fashion scene right now. The one thing that turns me off about most OTS tops is that if you raise your arms the sleeves will come up onto the shoulders. Anyone else have this issue? Well this top totally eliminates that! Plus I can also wear the top without the sleeves for a completely different look. It’s really 2 shirts in one, and I can appreciate that. The back is also SO CUTE. You guys know how much I love a good back, and the slit on the back of this top is so cute for summer days. It pairs perfectly with my peach cross body bag from Violet Ray. And yes, I do have the exact same Violet Ray bag in 2 colors – sue me.

Sweater Weather

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend! I spent mine in Las Vegas celebrating a good friends bachelorette party. I had an amazing time celebrating with old friends but Vegas also reminded me of how thankful I am for the authentic beauty of Colorado and being able to enjoy days like the one in this post.
