Subtle 4th of July outfit

A Fourth of July outfit doesn’t need to be flashy/you don’t need to go all out to be patriotic.
The weather is FINALLY warming up here in Portland, and the sun is out more! I LOVE summer in Oregon…because since it rains most of the year, when it’s hot in the summer, it’s still nice and green! Summer isn’t my favorite season (I’m an Autumn girl all the way) so I thought it would… Read More
I’ve struggled with self-confidence for YEARS. When I think about it — probably for the majority of my life. And it feels like as I get older, I gain confidence in areas I used to have none, and then lose it in others. Anyone else? However, I KNOW that most women, if not all, struggle… Read More

It literally took me 3 hours to do a grocery store trip that was 15 minutes away. But it sure made for some pretty… Read More
The thing I dreamt about the most since I was like 12 when it came to my own wedding was my wedding dress. And the story of how I found my “miracle” wedding dress is very special to me.
Happy almost Thanksgiving! I can’t believe it’s already the holidays. This year, and ESPECIALLY the last few months, have flown by for me. January is going to be insane, because my husband (still so crazy to say!) will be getting relocated and we’ll be moving out of Oregon. I know, so sad since we just… Read More
