{For Fashion's Sake} Saturday: and then you see it.

Have you ever been told, your whole life by various people, that you look like somebody and you just never really saw it? And then one day you see yourself from an angle you've never seen before, and BAM! you realize they weren't all just crazies, you really do look like that person?

I have two sisters and my whole life people have said i looked so much like my older sister, Heidi, but I never saw it. Sure we both had fair skin and blonde hair, but that's about where I thought our similarities stopped. 

But when Marcus snapped this candid of me, it finally clicked. For the first time in my life I saw what others saw and I agreed!

Yay for family resemblances!

{For Fashion's Sake} Saturday: Week Scarf

What I learned from this post:

This scarf may be slightly too big to wear like I did.

Scarfs, in general, are a bad idea during an Arizona summer.

Rolling your ankles doesn't look that cool in a photograph...

I want bangs.

Who knew outfit posts could be so educational?

Happy Saturday Everyone!

See that little smirk on my face?

Maybe it's there because when I took these pictures, I subconsciously knew that when YOU saw them, I wouldn't be fighting wind, rain, or cold, 

but rather I'd be soaking up the 83 degree weather that is Laguna Beach.

Or maybe Marcus just said something coy. 

But today, let's say it was the former...

So, please celebrate warmth with me today, and do something outdoors.

K, love you, but the beach is calling my name!

ann taylor nautical striped shirt

lately.

lunch at a local favorite: urban picnic/ still enjoying the beauty of fall around here.

loving that it's finally cool enough for welovecolor tights/ scenes from one of our many recent trips to ikea

dinner at another favorite, la grande orange and a movie with ty, sierra, ted, and lauren.

especially loving these tights/ trying to come up with as many ways as i can wear green and red together this season.

more holiday fun at the Hale Theater, seeing The Christmas Carol with the Nielson family.

trying out the three twisted buns again.

kicking myself for not waking up early and bidding on this cute 'snack set' at the auction!

some many things to thank lauren for, one being the ceviche recommendation, and another being this adorable vintage camera she gave me for my birthday! xoxo

I also wanted to thank everyone for their well wishes after the flood in our house. It made me so happy to know there were people praying for us and thinking about us. We're getting things fixed up and it's not going to be as expensive as we had originally thought, so that's a huge blessing. life is good. 

How's everything going for you? I'm starting to really stress about how soon Christmas is and how Marcus has like two things on his amazon wishlist: a $7 screwdriver and a $800 camera lense. So ya...not sure what to do about that one...Enjoy the Season!

shabby apple winner was announced here.
