Okay I admit it, I’m in denial!! Denial that summer really is gone, that everyone is back at school and we’re all indulging in our pumpkin spice lattes and getting our kitchens ready for endless apple recipes. The scary reality is that this magical warm sunny season means that there are only a few short months before the entire year is over! No, I’m not freaking out because I haven’t done anything I wanted to this year, on the contrary..I can happily say I accomplished all my summer goals and am well on my way to saying I did all I wanted this year {but now we’re just getting way too ahead ourselves} Back to one of the best summers I’ve had…a life changing trip to Jamaica, the best birthday yet!!, becoming more in tune with nature,  new places and experiences, cherished memories with old and new friends, adventures in Lake George, endless amounts of homemade ice cream, summer concerts, regaining my passion for baking…but above all this summer I’ve changed. I’m more happy, confident, and passionate if that’s even possible. I have a completely different outlook on my life and how life in general should be. You can say I’ve become more of a free-spirit but I’ve learned that the whole purpose of life is to enjoy, and when you’re not enjoying it for what it’s worth, then you’re missing your purpose.

So I’m asking you…have you accomplished all your summer goals? What are you planning to do when fall and winter comes around?

The second I put on these Nike Lunarglide+4 OGs I knew this was “my” running sneaker. They were super light and provide extra stability with a floating heel-support clip, preventing your foot from rolling. With my recent foot strains I’m hoping I can get back into running seriously again, plus I couldn’t help but love the neon yellow and green!

 I couldn’t help myself Fall brings around my favorite flavors, including my Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte cravings. I can’t wait to come up with delicious and comforting recipes!

It took me about a month but I finally picked up my copy of cupcakes and cashmere. I couldn’t help myself from going through the entire book before buying it. Emily is so creative and definitely inspired me to start this blog. Love her!

Who doesn’t love a good bargain? I couldn’t help myself from nabbing this fitted denim button-down and graphic tee with a blue mesh back. It’s the perfect saying for a dreamer like myself…it was meant for me!

The perfect end of the week treat to myself was a water lily and aloe scented soy candle.

I’ll leave you with a few images that make me love summer so much!

I love everything about entertaining. Flowers are my weakness, a slice of homemade pie makes my heart sing & I’m a sucker for wedding videos. I dream about these things, it’s true. But what I love most, is working with amazing people to create meaningful & unique celebrations…..

Instagram post 2195361413982519148_20110111 I haven’t really created new holiday stylings in the past few years, mostly because cookies have become precedent, or I’m already working on early new year events & get crafty making gifts. But this year I’m trying to fill more of that free time w. rest....& plenty of scheming for my next travels😉🌿
.....
But you can get more of this Festive Red Boho Styling & other holiday ideas all on the blog archives!! Follow the bio link for plenty of inspiration✨❄️
Instagram post 2193145886518090006_20110111 Words for the weekend, the holiday season & every other day of the year!✨And yes I photocopied & framed this from the latest issue of Magnolia Journal, it pretty much sums up my approach to the holidays this year.....
reusing what I already have,
woods & greens to celebrate
the beauty in Mother Nature’s bareness,
fairy lights that remind me of starry night skies
& this little penguin (who has been my only 
non-necessary purchase) because I love 
penguins & it makes me smile 
every time I’m at my desk working🐧❄️🌿
Instagram post 2192265495171179698_20110111 A little but special throwback to our Gift Wrap & Give Back Holiday Party! We gathered up the gals for some bites, wrapped donated gifts & wrote cards - all for kids who don’t get to celebrate the holidays or receive the kind of gifts most do....this is one of the easiest ways you can get together w. friends this holiday season while doing some REAL good!

Grab your friends, have them each donate a toy/gift for a local community drive or a family in need, then have each person bring a dish & something to wrap with! Get all the ideas for this party on the blog & make your own special “Give Back” holiday party💚
Instagram post 2190101455565098681_20110111 December ..... while most dive into the crazed chaos, I will honor your Slowness🌿I will still celebrate the things I love about the holiday season, but I will do it in a more natural way; an homage to the restorative & simplistic beauty of Mother Nature this time of year.

I will continue to be grateful, showing my kindness & love towards others, even if it’s a simple act of baking cookies or giving away a coat.

I will reflect & cherish all the days before. I will live in each present moment, but also dream & envision new plans for goals I know I’m on my way to achieving, new places to explore, new adventures, new people to meet.

I will continue to learn & grow into an even better version of myself as I celebrate the final days of another year & the beginnings of a new.....✨
