Idaho snaps & what I'll miss.

It's the start to a long, stressful week of working til 3 in the mornin', packing up my little house, cleaning, moving, studying and preparing for my internship, and saying goodbye to the dream-life of summer. Exciting changes are coming, but this morning, I'm missing the simplicity and slow-moving loveliness of Idaho.

(super) casual friday

I haven't done a casual Friday post in months, which is a bit ironic considering my whole summer has been casual wear. But I had to post today because this outfit is the epitome of casual: slouchy tee + cut offs. I halfheartedly attempted to dress it up with some color pops in the belt and shoes, but let's be honest here: I did two things in this outfit today, the first being watch 3 hours of Bachelor Pad with my roommates and the second being sit in Starbucks all evening catching up on some work I should have started in June. It served it's purpose. 

I thrifted this Seattle Seahawks tee for $2 yesterday and haven't taken it off since--SO. SOFT. and comfy. And I love repping my city, though I really shouldn't be allowed to wear sports clothing considering my extreme lack of knowledge/interest/skills in most things athletic. Fake it 'til you make it, right?

ps: East Magnolia Vintage now has a Facebook page! 'Like' it for updates on new vintage, sales, giveaways, etc!

shirt, shorts, and belt: thrifted, shoes: Jennifhsieh's shop my closet, ring: forever 21, polish: Essie

livin's easy

When you spend the day swimming, boating, jet skiing, and running around in the sun with your crazy extended family and then have approximately 8 minutes to get dressed and ready for another family gathering, it goes something like this: throw on your comfiest dress and slouchiest cardi, add a curl or two to your lake hair and cover the rest with a hat, put on a coat of mascara and run out the door. They're your family, anyway: they have to tell you look good. 

ps: these are taken on just a small part of my grandparents' beautiful property in Idaho; one of my favorite places in the world. already missing it.
