Lately

I wanted to do a different type of "lately" post and give you an update on what I've been up to, so here we go.

Watching - My fiancé and I have been really into watching space and astronomy documentaries. It's crazy how much I am learning that I had no idea about, (in case you didn't know but I am a big astronomy nerd) I have also have been watching Parks and Recreation on Netflix which I mostly watch when I am knitting, it is pretty funny and reminds me a lot of The Office, one of my favorite shows.

Looking forward to - getting married this Spring! I am so excited to be marrying my boyfriend of 10 years, it is about time we tie the knot right? We are doing a destination wedding so I will definitely be sharing some photos with you soon.

Drinking - lots of green smoothies or as I like to call them, detox shakes. I mostly drink these on the weekend when I need to detoxify my body of all the heavy foods that winter makes me crave. I will most probably share a post on my green smoothies soon, I love making them!

Working on - knitting, knitting, knitting! :) I am still knitting away scarves, I find that always working on your craft keeps you motivated and helps with coming up with ideas. I am also working on new knit ideas for spring and summer which I am really looking forward to. Picking new colors and yarns for a new season is a fun part on its own.

Exploring - photography, I have always loved capturing moments and taking photos of details and places that I come across. I want to just get out there and start taking photos of things that capture my eye, random moments of times spent with my loved ones, and just anything that I find interesting along the way. Some of images will most probably make it on to this blog, it is something that I really want to incorporate here. Visual depictions of moments in my surroundings is something I would like to share on my blog.

Let me know what you guys have been up to, thanks for reading :)

A Few Words...

(via Pinterest)

Hi guys, I wanted to do a different type of post today to kind of let you know what I have been up to and to get a little bit more personal and raw on my blog.

I have so many things and ideas on my mind constantly that it is crazy and sometimes I wonder how I can keep up with myself. For me, it's a good thing though (honestly). If I wasn't thinking of ideas or coming up with projects constantly, I think I would be super bored. I am just a really indecisive person, one day I want to do this and another day I want to do that. It is a hard thing to do, to find your passion. I have been constantly struggling with this for some time now. I just want to find something that I absolutely love doing. I want to do something where I am up till late hours of the night diving away and would not even mind for a second. For me it's a matter of finding that something that I want to do, it's not about not being able to do it. I have always been a dreamer and believe that anything is possible. If you put your mind to it, it will happen.

I keep thinking about how to proceed with this blog of mine and what kind of posts I should be doing. I love blogging, it's my outlet of creativity as opposed to what I do everyday for a living. I love doing outfit of the day posts but the weather and time seem to not be by my side all the time. I keep wondering how other bloggers do it, especially if you live in a cold place, let me know yea? :-) I want to share my interests and what I am currently craving, and my outfits as well. I love putting outfits together, it's like being a stylist in the fashion world but for yourself and without the pressure of others.

I also love creating. Creating and being creative seems to be something that I always lean to. It is something that makes me feel alive. I want to put more thought and effort into my Etsy shop and sort of bring a different look to it and add more product options. It is about that time that Spring is approaching so something that is on the back of my mind recently is that I want to offer other items that are appropriate for this season. These are a few of the things that I am contemplating on working on soon. There are other different things that I would like to do, I just love so many things!

Anyway, I just wanted to vent a little bit here, thanks for reading if you got this far :) I hope you got something out of this and if you already know what you love doing or you found your passion, go for it and don't waste time. Let me know your thoughts or comments and also let me know if you have found that something that makes you feel ALIVE.

Knitted Scarves Lately

Continuing with the pastel trend here on my blog, I wanted to share with you guys some of the scarves that I have knitted lately.  Having fun, colorful accessories in the winter just makes it so much better to go out and bear the cold. These scarves came out so cozy and chunky, I am so ready to start knitting more! How do you guys like accessorizing for the winter?

Forever21 goodies

Birthday flowers

Essie Turquoise and Caicos + On a Silver Platter

Hey guys, I have been shopping quite a bit to add to my summer wardrobe and cannot wait to share with you guys some outfit photos with these new items. I can't get enough of denim cut off shorts and florals as you can see from the picture. Anything floral, lace, or bright is most probably going into my closet haha... As you can see, my fiance knows me well as he got me these lovely bright flowers for my birthday, they were so pretty! I have been inspired to play around with different nail colors now and this is what came out. I am loving this color combination :) Thanks for reading and for all your lovely comments!

Lately

New dresses for spring (floral dress here)

New beauty products from Sephora

Lovely rose pink colored yarn

New planner and notebook from Poppin here and here

With the beginning of spring comes a lot of shopping as you can see :) I am super excited that Spring is finally here. I feel like I talk a lot about the weather all the time but it is something that it's part of our every day lives and that alters how I feel and what I wear (obviously). With the warmer weather, I am looking forward to eating healthier and getting exercise. I can't say that I am the most fit person, so going out for walks or running is something that I am really looking forward to. Eating healthier also comes with spring. I have always been curious about being vegan and eating only raw fruits and vegetables, so my fiance and I will be doing a cleansing weekend only eating the most freshest produce we can find. This will be a challenge for us but that makes it all that better and will also make us healthier even if it's just for two days. I would like to know what you guys are looking forward to doing for this spring/summer :)

It has been wayyy too long!
Hey guys! I have been absent from my blog for almost 3 weeks and I have to say I have missed blogging and interacting with you guys! I hate saying excuses BUT I guess you can blame me being sick for about a week and the ridiculous winter we have been having. If you live somewhere in the US where you have winters, you know what I am talking about and you might feel my pain (and anger) due to the weather. It was kind of hard taking outfit of the day pictures when it was below 20 degrees and snowing all the time, and to be honest I just was not inspired to write about anything else. Enough about that, I am back and have been gathering ideas for posts other than outfits. I have to say though, outfit posts are my favorite but variation is always good. I figure I get to share with you guys all of the other things that interest me like these photos of some of the things I have been up to lately. ALSO, I have been thinking about a name change for the blog. I finally came up with a name that I really love and know I will like for a really long time (since I am very indecisive), look out for that soon. Anyway, I hope you are all doing well and thanks for reading! xo

Hey guys, here are some snapshots from the things that have been inspiring me lately. As I mentioned before, I am a knitter. I just love knitting, it helps me to relax and I love shopping for yarn and seeing all the different colors and textures. I am almost done with this scarf and cannot wait to wear it, I really must finish it before the winter is over :) However, I don't think this winter is leaving anytime soon as it is really frigid cold here in the east coast. The above is just a portion of the snow that we have been getting these past weeks. The snow looks so pretty though, I can't deny that. Now, let's talk about these boots! I just got this pair of leopard booties which I loved as soon as I saw them, I cannot wait to style these. I also included my favorite pair of Jeffrey Campbell boots because as you guys know I am loving black boots :) I hope you enjoyed a glimpse into what I have been into lately. Thanks for stopping by! xo
