August always makes me feel dreamy, and as I’ve said before, I think it’s the romantic in me. I have an idea of what August, September and October should look and feel like. August hits, and (normally) there’s a slight chill when the wind blows, the light is an deep orange, indicating the earth is tilting away from the sun. Autumn is on the way, but summer still clings to the air. I hoard my Nordstrom anniversary sale purchases, waiting until it’s September to break out the autumn gear I bought. Oh how I love this time of the year.…
seattle style
It is finally spring in Seattle. Until we make our yearly inaugural trip to Marymoor Dog Park with the pups, I refuse to acknowledge it is spring. On the sunniest & warmest day we’ve had, we pack the pups into the car & head off to Marymoor. The other important factor is whether or not the coffee stand is open at the park. It was.…
Slowly letting spring style creep into my wardrobe. If only the Seattle weather would cooperate!…
I’ve been listening to a whole lot of Depeche Mode lately. I go through phases where I won’t listen to them at all, and then go on a spree of nothing but Depeche Mode songs.…
Did you know it rains an exuberant amount in Seattle? You’ve probably never, ever, not even once heard that. I’m kidding of course. We all know the Pacific Northwest is wet and soggy a good portion of the year. This winter has been unusually more wet than normal, which is really saying something, but with spring upon us (hopefully…no more snow please), it will be a bit warmer but still just as wet. If there’s one thing I’ve learned in my time on this side of the Cascades, it’s that a good waterproof boot makes all the difference.…
My guilty pleasure is Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. I’ll admit it. I’ve watching every season multiple times & have been on Team Vanderpump since the beginning. I even went to Villa Blanca when I was in L.A. five years ago (it was delicious btw).…
Honestly, I was trying to come up with a witty Depeche Mode themed title because their new single drops today & ecstatic doesn’t cover my mood at all.…
It’s probably because of the general state of the world at the moment, but my desire to venture out on weekends is waning. Though, it’s also probably because it’s winter and the cold makes me recoil. But if I do have errands to run, I prefer to get those things out of the way early on in my Saturday.…
I started watching Black Sails recently, why I hadn’t started before is beyond me. I love period shows: Vikings, Outlander, Penny Dreadful, and to the dismay of my partner, I even watch Dr Quinn Medicine Woman, just to name a few.…
I hope everyone had a lovely holiday weekend. I spent it with my partner’s family in Eastern Washington with cold temperatures and snow, but I’ll save those photos for another post.…
