When I was growing up, there was a farm way out in the country that had been nicknamed “Acid Park”. It was full of handmade metal windmills, aka “whirligigs”, that were varying heights and had reflectors all over them. They were situated perfectly in a sharp curve, so when you drove by at night, your headlights would hit them and cause a pretty trippy light show, hence the nickname “Acid Park” (it was especially cool on windy nights!).

Sweet Scallops
Read moreI just love anything with a scalloping detail – it’s the sweetest, girly touch, and I’m glad to see it is a trend that seems to be staying around for the upcoming spring/summer season. The scallop hem on this skirt takes an otherwise basic little black skirt to the next level! The description of this skirt says “mini”, but I think if you’re shorter, it’s totally appropriate for the office (I am 5’3″ for reference). It comes in several other…

A Shoutout to My Valentine
Read moreDid y’all know that my husband, Richard, takes almost all of my photos? I may be partial, but I think he does a wonderful job. When I first decided to venture into the blogging world, I don’t think either of us realized the commitment it would require from a content creation and photography standpoint. He has jumped right in by learning how to work a grown-up camera, and is sometimes thinking about potential locations for photo shoots more than me!…
