Straw Totes

 

If you know me, you know I'm a handbag girl (I actually just purchased one...more on that later). Summer means straw totes in my handbook. It puts you in the mood for the beach, farmer's market or just bee-bopping around town. My all-time favorite? OP's of course...

Weekend Photos

 

 

 

 photos by Brianne Lee

Nate and I ventured to Fargo this weekend and I had my little sister's friend, Brianne, take some photos of us. I realized some time ago that the only photos that I had with Nate involved standing in front of something like a staircase with one arm around each other. Blehh. Insert Brianne. This is only a snippet of the collection, but I love how she was able to capture our relationship personality so perfectly on film. Be sure to check out the rest of her portfolio here.

Insta - life

Creative Casual

How lucky am I to have a M-F dress code described as "creative causal"? Some days, like today, it feels like wearing your pajamas to work. I found this French Connection dress while out and about with the boy this past weekend and I have to say, it made my Monday a little brighter. Don't worry, I promise to always wear it with leggings.
