Happy {Carefree} Weekend!

Looking forward to a relaxing and carefree weekend! I dont have any big plans, which is just what I need after such a stressful week. My brain needs to rest! Shopping, good food, friends and family is all I need.


Have a wonderful weekend!

Dream Closet

My closet is just too small, and all my complaining has me dreaming about the day I'll have a walk-in closet. Here are a few beautifully organized closets I wouldnt mind owning someday...

Pothole Gardens

I came across these pothole garden photo's on Joanna's blog, A Cup of Jo and it brought a smile to my face on this gloomy Wednesday. The photo's are by artist, Pete Dungey, who plants gardens in the potholes of British roads. One pothole at a time! I love it!



Fabulously Wed

I came across a few fabulous wedding photos on Dress, Design & Decor and couldn't resist sharing...

Is it Friday?

Is it Friday yet? I'm exhausted! Last night, a few girlfriends and I headed out for drinks and dessert to celebrate one of my best friend's birthday. We stayed out way past my bed time and I'm now having the hardest time keeping my eyes open or staying focused on anything work related. Today is going to be a long day.


Looking forward to the weekend!

Happy Day!

It's such a beautiful, sunny day in Portland. I can't wait to get out of the office! The sun always puts me in a good mood, despite all the work I have to get done. Sharing the love on this Wednesday afternoon...


Happy hump day!

Yoga

After a perfect weekend with the girls in Seattle, I raced home Sunday afternoon to spend the evening with my valentine. The night couldn't have been more perfect, we made a delicious dinner, drank wine, caught up on all the latest gossip and went to see the movie, Valentine's Day. Josh and I don't really "celebrate" Valentine's day, but we do like to spend time with each other and buy little gifts to show that we're thinking about one another. I've been wanting to try yoga for some time now, and Josh must have been listening, because he bought me a yoga mat (amongst other things) for Valentine's day!

I'm planning on attending my very first yoga class today! I cant wait!


Weekend Recap!

Monday came way too soon! Where did Saturday and Sunday go?! My weekend was filled with lots of fun, friends, good drinks, laughter and little sleep and I am most certainly feeling it this morning. I drove up to Seattle Friday afternoon to surprise one of my best girlfriend's for her birthday and we celebrated allll weekend long (literally!).


Hope you have a happy Monday!

Portland Wedding

I'm loving the work of photographer, Ben Blood, who captured this rooftop wedding in Portland. The couple kept it simple as they had a sweet, rooftop ceremony followed by a pizza reception, I love this idea!

I must have these..


Seychelles flats, they're absolutely perfect for spring and summer outfits. I must have them!

Oh Monday...

Ahh, I had the most perfect and relaxing weekend. Saturday, I lounged around in my pj's all day and did absolutely nothing, which was exactly what I needed after such a stressful week. On Sunday, Josh and I slept in, got a quick work out in before running errands and prepping for our Superbowl party. I wish the weekend would last forever...
