OUTFIT DETAILS:
Shirt, Bag, Shoes: Vintage - thrifted

Hello and happy friday darlings!

No, I'm not on vacation.  Gosh, do I wish I was though!  It may be safe to say that my little home on this mountainside has endured it's last bad snow of the winter season...ok, so probably wishful thinking considering where I live, but I'm keeping a sunny outlook, ya know?  So as it goes, I was looking back through the archives and stumbled across this post of photos that never got published and boy was I ever in the mood to throw on a pair of sandals, shorts, and tie up my top again.  

Anyways, last September, the little fam and ventured yet again down to Hilton Head Island for a week of sand and sun.  This is pretty much what it looked like.  French pastries for breakfast watching the sunrise, morning bike rides under the palm trees, long days at the beach, lunch by the pool, seafood dinners, and evening strolls and trips for gelatos...yep perfect and a definite contrast to every day normal life.  As winter has been very busy and a little rough, I pretty much so dream of weeks like this with plenty of blue skies, no stress, and living at a very slow pace.   Don't we all?

So there you have, I'm in a summer daze looking out my window at the white winter snow as I grip my cup of coffee tightly to keep my hands warm.  I'm surely counting down the days til spring, tying up my tops and baring my legs once again.

Wishing you simplicity and sunshine for the weekend ahead,
Love bunches,

Outfits: This Bird Has Flown


OUTFIT DETAILS:
Dress & Bag: Target
Scarf, Brooch, Shoes: Vintage


Whoa hello, 

Fancy seeing palm trees and sundresses here today, right?  Anyhow, I figure I'd post some pics from my stay at Hilton Head, to usher in some sunshine and warm weather vibes on le blog as the air where I live is currently chilled and my arms are covered in a fleecy blanket and wooly sweater.  

Living here for a week every year certainly makes me a happy gal...can you see why?  Hello pretty bright colored houses, won't you be mine?  My only complaint - the humidity fogged up my camera lens and gave me blurry photos - oh well.  Anyhow, I'm the biggest baby about the cold.  Once it gets below 70 degrees, I'm moaning the blues, so one of these days I dream about making this little slice of heaven my dwelling place.  Yeah, fingers crossed.  Plus I love wearing sundresses.  Who doesn't?  

How about you?  Do you love or loathe dressing for this cold weather?  I mean sweaters are cool and all ...but sundresses.  

Until next time darlings...love bunches,

Oh hello there darlings, 

Say hello to my autumn uniform... It seems that these fall days have brought overcast skies and buckets of rain my way so a cozy sweater, wool hat, and heavy tights are where it is at.   Rain or not, this cupcake sweater and the rest of the ensemble have made it's way into rotation at least once a week if not twice if I am being honest.  I just love sweaters and wooly hats this time of year...and cupcakes too.  Yep, I even wore it on an outing to the corn maze and pumpkin patch with my son's preschool class.    And yes, I am fully aware that this may not have been the most practical outfit to romp around the corn fields alongside of 4 year olds especially as the rest of the parents were perfectly comfy in their jeans and sweatshirts.  You know us bloggers though, we just love finding reasons to "dress up", so a corn maze sounded like a pretty swell reason to me.  Wouldn't you agree?

How about you?  What's your autumn uniform consist of?  

Until next time...love bunches,

Outfits: Toasty


OUTFIT DETAILS:
Scarf & Shoes: Vintage, thrifted


Oh hi there darlings and happy autumn!  

Now that fall is officially here, I'm gearing up to break out tights and sweaters and plenty of pumpkin laced goodness...aren't we all?  Anyhow today I'm sharing photos from our holiday to Hilton Head, SC and gosh, it seems like forever and a day ago that the fam and I were soaking in oodles of sun & surf and blue skies and stuffing ourselves with oysters and crab cakes.  That's the life, right?  

So my uniform for most of this week - aside from a swimsuit, seemed to be a dress, a pair of huaraches, and a headscarf.  Here you have it...this is how I do summer simple.   I was feeling rather toasty in this get up - not only because of the hot, hot heat, but because the toaster/toast print on this dress was giving me the warm fuzzes inside.  Again, I can thank Sammi for supplying me with another precious print to don.  

So with that, I'm signing off.  Tonight I'm hitting the road for a little concert - so packing awaits.  Have a beautiful day!

Love Bunches,

Dress: Thrifted
Hat & Bag: Vintage, thrifted
Necklace & Shoes: Modcloth
Tights: Target


I did tell you that I adore poking around old places, right?  Anyhow, another afternoon saw me out and about, this time with my vintage styling-blogging gal pal Kayla of Fairytale of a Vintage Wallflower, and boy did we uncover a fascinating little gem in the next town over!


I've been friends with Kayla for awhile over Instagram...(imagine that!), however this was the first time we were able to meet for reals in person and it's kind of just awesome possum to find another human being who lives in the same town as you do and loves thrifting, vintage, blogging, taking photos, etc, etc...you know what I mean, so naturally it was a match made in blogger heaven...ha!  

Just before we hit the Thrift, we drove by this old dilapidated train station that apparently used to be the heart of the city when it built in the late 1800s.  After it shut down in the 70s, a restaurant/club...(see the colorful train car in the back) was added on.  How I would love to just see how booming this little station once was back in the day.  Anyhow, this is how it once look:


Interesting, right?  So that's just about all for now.  I do hope to poke around this little station once again, but for now, I will enjoy my second cup of coffee before the laundry calls my name.

Wishing you a good one!
Love Bunches,
