RIP Steve

"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary." —Steve Jobs

What a revolutionary man who left behind an amazing legacy. I want to live my life with as much conviction and passion as he did.

RIP man.

Cecilia and Young's wedding was featured on Style Me Pretty today! GASP!

Not too surprised since their wedding was absolutely gorgeous but it was nice to see a little fish+cake work on a blog not my own :)

Go check it out!

today is one of those days I wish I was in the middle of nowhere. just me, my thoughts, a pretty dress, and a swing. huh.

tattoos and such

With the impending big 3-0 coming up in the seemingly near future I've been thinking of doing something really wild to celebrate my youth. I have been raiding image banks for ideas on what I would want PERMANENTLY inked onto my body and it is a tough decision!

Thankfully swissmiss seems to have read my mind and just launched tattly, a line of temporary tattoos by some pretty sweet designers. These are already in my cart for a test run to see if I have the guts to really pull the trigger in the future!

essex

highlights from my recent trip to essex for the lovely wedding of heather and jeff!

white elephant antiques, fried clams, lobster rolls, school bus rides, gorgeous views, touching vows, personal mason jars, 10 minute downpour, rainbow, dancing, and more dancing. W O W.

just 'cause

daisies are the perfect "cheer you up" flowers. stopped by the market on the way home and just because i wanted to—i bought some flowers! then i went home spent a few moments doing a little simple arranging and sat back on the couch and just enjoyed :)

pick yourself up some just 'cause flowers on your way home!
