Wishful thinking.

So today I'm pretending it's summer. I'm living in a make believe world where winter is over, spring has come and gone and now it's summer time. Meg's dress just reminds me so much of summer, so I knew instantly that I wanted red accessories and a hat to go with it. (Side note, this hat is my favorite thing ever)! I promise you all, I wasn't even a little cold taking these pictures. It's a beautiful summer day after all. ;)

Sorry for the lack of posting last week. Wedding planning is in full swing and last week I quit my nursing job. It just wasn't a good fit for me and all of my friends and family agreed I shouldn't stay. I did however get the nursing job I've been wanting forever, so I'll be starting that in June. So that's basically last week in a nutshell. Oh and I also spent the weekend with my mom which was much needed and amazing! I'm going to miss her like crazy when I move out. Also, thanks to my momma for taking today's pictures. They are unedited, she did so great!mar29-05mar29-01
Thanks for joining me in my warm, summertime daydream! I hope you have an amazing week and thanks SO much for reading. Seriously, you all brighten my day! <3

Meg's dress, Charlotte Russe wedges, F21 belt + sunglasses, Target hat

N'aww, your mom takes amazing photos! The last two are awesome with the sun behind you.

I love the way you styled my dress, it's so summery and nautical and AWESOME! Now I want a hat like that... badly. And sunglasses like that. And your shoes. You know what, can you just be a dear and mail your entire wardrobe to me please? Thanks.

Anyway I'm so glad you got that nursing job you wanted, the world loves you and is working in your favor! <3

Firstly, I'm loving your hair it looks absolutely gorgeous! And the outfit is equally fabulous. I'm with you that hat is great, stripes are adorable, knotted belt + wedges are so, so sweet.

Best of luck with the wedding planning, it does get SO hectic, but also so wonderfully exciting. xx veronika

You are soooo adorable. I do the same thing in winter, I like to pretend it's winter (because we all know it doesn't actually become winter here, ever). Of course, I usually end up sweating my face, so it doesn't work.

Anyways, totally lovee these accessories and your dress is super cutee!

Drool! Throw in a beach ball and a yacht and these pictures are way summer ready! I loved how you styled Meg's dress :D Especially with the white tights and red-strapped wedges!

So happy you got the job you've been waiting for! Nothing is worse than being miserable with where you work- and hopefully you'll never have to do that again! Maybe after I get my Radiography degree and Kevin and I move we could work at the same hospital! lol. If only!

Tell your mom that the pictures were stunning!!!! She's quite the photographer :D

wedding planning is SO stressful. definitely one of the hardest things i've ever had to do! i don't think that working full time and going to school full time helped my situation out, either...
