Colors are Brighter.

I'm not sure when I started loving colors so much but my love of color has grown into this extra part of me. I can't really explain it other than the fact that seeing colors together makes me exceptionally happy. I guess I should work for Pantone! :)

I bought this CD a few years ago when people still bought CDs. I was really excited about it because Belle and Sebastian is so special to me so I couldn't wait to share with my future children. But, the years pass and my future children aren't here yet and I have absolutely no use for a CD anymore. I will still share it with them someday but I guess I'll find the mp3s because God only knows where that CD is now. I'm sure it's somewhere with a cracked case and is scratched beyond belief.

Gabe asked me if I cut this skirt and of course I said- "I wish". I have been really inspired to create my own designs from scratch. I think I'll buy some fabric and teach myself something. Anyone know any good fabric stores in Nashville?

  4. What a gorgeous silhouette! Did you side-swipe the cut or is it meant to be worn in that fashion?? Either way, love this ensemble C! Makes me happy to see you so happy in color! I've got the same curse it seems...bring it on!

  7. Brilliant! Here I was wondering what bag to carry today with my electric coral and chocolate brown ensemble, and WHAM! There you are in your brights with that perfect little Anthro bag, which I also own, and what do you know, that's the one bag in my closet that could perfectly offset such vibrant colors, and add a whisper of feminine delicacy. Way to be an inspiration.

  9. Belle and Sebastian could solve all of the world's problems. I'm sure of it. I always tell my husband that we will be playing Boy with the Arab Strap to our kids in the womb so they'll come out as perfectly happy, music-loving babies. :)

  14. I love that blouse, you look absolutely lovely. I love the idea of keeping things to share with your future children. I've got copies of some of my favourite books to share with mine, not that I have any planned soon, but I like the idea of sharing the same ones I love when I was a child with them, even if they are a bit destroyed now xo

  17. This is the cutest outfit.

    And on CDs - one of my closest friends refuses to download anything digitally and is adamant about buying legal physical CDs. She's a unicorn in the digital age.

  38. I'm just going through your blog for the first time and think it's so sweet that you talk here about sharing your Belle and Sebastian CD with your future children that aren't here yet.. and now you're seven months pregnant! I hope you can find the MP3 to share with sweet Goldie :)
