Your So Put Together

Miz Mooz 'Kira' Riding Boot
I have been searching everywhere for the perfect pair of boots. I stumbled onto the Nordstrom website, looking at hunter rubber boots just for fun and decided to take a peak at their boots to see if any catch my eye. I have fallen in love with this lovely pair, Miz Mooz Kira Riding Boot, aren't they just the epitome of perfection?

And how cute would they be with a pair of these darling socks from Free People peaking out the tops?

Now...no need to think about prices when we are dreaming, right?

Salt in the Air

The smell of Salt in the air. When you are near to the ocean, and you know it, even if you can't see it, if only because of the smell in the air. It is such a powerful smell and very nostalgic. I have a few favorite smells, and this is one of them!

This spread is from the beautiful shop Silent Sundays. Everything from their name, there clothes, to their photos, leave you with a sense of calmness and longing.

Bangs

I love my bangs, I think they are just right for so many different faces! Right now, mine need a trim, which is the only downfall with bangs - is how fast they grow! And when your swimming, they end up all over the place. I really like my bangs however, and have been contemplating on getting my hair cut a bit shorter, such as in the first picture, but then again, I would like to grow it out as in the second picture! So many options! Right now it is right underneath my collarbone.

Whats your take on bangs?

Inspired by Brits

The truth is...I love London and British flags! I am considering going to college in London for a year, actually, I know that I want to, I just have to find the right program. Actually, I think I was meant to be a Brit.

You might remember me talking about redoing my room that has a lot of log and wooden walls, in white paint. I am looking for a vintage union jack flag, such as the one in the first picture (isn't it lovely?) to add something to it. Now, I just have to keep my eyes open for one, if you see one, please let me know!
