Seashells

DRESS: Giveaway win from Boohoo via Lost in the Haze ♡♡♡ BAG: ModCloth; still available at Amazon SHOES: ASOS (similar, similar)

Hello! I won this dress in and giveaway via Jo from Lost in the Haze and it is absolutely p e r f e c t! The color, metallic elements, cut-out, fit - it's so gorgeous and has definitely become one of my favorite items in my wardrobe! Definitely will be purchasing from Boohoo again!

I paired it with this shell purse I bought a couple months ago from Modcloth (thank you again to Kate Gabrielle who sent me a tweet telling me it was on sale before I missed it! *_*) - it's sold out but can still be purchased on Amazon!

(please ignore my awkward pose and just look at the purse haha!)

Who else is getting excited for summer?! I have to be honest, I am kind of sad by how it's already so late in May (this year is going by way to fast and I haven't accomplished anything ;_;) - but the idea of making and eating a copious amount of popsicles, making a zine with my friend Cassie, hopefully gaining the courage to wear some candy colored high-waisted shorts, and roller skating is keeping me from being *too* upset!

Do you have any exciting plans for summer? ♡

p.s. I was interviewed by Matra from Style Alchemy as part of her Style Muse feature - such an honor! Take a peek at the interview here ♡

Daisies & Buttercups

DRESS: Milk Teeths Vintage TIGHTS: Forever 21 SOCKS: DIY SHOES: ASOS (similar)
BUTTERCUP ZINE: A gift from Paige Joanna ♡♡♡ TOTE: Paige Joanna

When I heard Paige Joanna was creating a zine, I was overjoyed! She is one of my favorite style bloggers who is also a remarkable artist; I have been lucky enough to get to know her as a person - and she has become a very dear friend to me.

So recently when I received the tote bag I had purchased from her and realized she had included not one but two of her zines - I was left a bit speechless!

Not only is Buttercup *very* professionally put together (couldn't get over how sleek & beautifully made it was!), but the contents are divine! Filled with poetry and illustrations by Paige, it was a delight to flip through - highlights were definitely Paige's introduction, spotting Megan and Stephanie, and the adorable paper doll!

I'm rather smitten with my tote as well! I decided to pair it with this daisy dress I bought from Milk Teeths Vintage (which is run by the lovely Ashley and is currently having a sale!), my new houndstooth tights that I adore, and more DIYed ruffle socks! ♡

Thank you so much again Paige - you are incredible! ♡♡♡ Do you have any zines you would like to recommend?! I absolutely adore them! ♡

Meowmaid

DRESS: Newman Hall @ Etsy PIN: c/o The Albino Hare BOW: c/o Crown and Glory
SOCKS: Forever 21 SHOES: c/o B.A.I.T. Footwear PURSE: A gift from Marlena

Do you ever want to cry because something is so perfect and adorable that it seems like it was made just for you in mind? That's how I felt when doing a random etsy search I discovered this Meowmaid pin from artist Lee Anna, the lovely lady in charge of The Albino Hare!

This little guy swam his way to me in a beautiful parcel with another pin and adorable stationary, and is now one of my dearest treasures - thanks to Lee Anna's incredible talent and generosity! Over the course of the past few months I have also discovered she is an absolutely lovely person, and I feel very thankful to have "met" her! ♡ (Oh and by the way, there are only two meowmaids in her shop, one green and one pink, so you'd better take a look before they are gone...!)

These pictures were taken at a park I stumbled upon yesterday! Couldn't believe all the gorgeous flowers - spring is definitely in bloom! I was sad to see some children trying to poke and pick up the geese and ducks trying to go about their business near the water however...! >.>

And speaking of animals, I am officially the new foster parent for four 3 month old kittens! They are positively precious, but are still rather afraid of me, which breaks my heart a little bit (I'm one of those people who wants all cats and dogs to immediately love me); but I'm determined to help them learn to love humans so they can get adopted! ;3

If you have any advice for helping shy kitties, I'd love to hear them!

Lots of love and remember - you are important! ♡
