Being abroad almost this whole year so far means tons of awesome new experiences, lots of sightseeing, and plenty of adventure. Being on the go a lot also means packing light, and so I’ve been keeping it simple with jeans and tees most of the time.
In between spring study abroad and my summer internship, however, I was back home in America and wore this….
dress: Isaac Mizrahi for Target
black suit jacket: Anne Taylor Loft
bag: Topshop, London, England
sandals: Rome, Italy
vintage necklaces
Five things I’m loving this week….
1. This earring display I saw on the street in Rome! It was so functional and creative. My ears aren’t pierced, but if they were I would totally have bought earrings from this guy.
2. This toy camera from Poketo. I love the idea of these toy cameras, and I love my Diana Mini!

3. Love this idea for changing up the frame mat! It’s definitely something I want to try with my used European city maps after I get back home.

4. Super cute boots to go with jeans and summer dresses.

happy weekend, everyone : )
Got this idea from some other blogs, and decided to jump on board! Here’s five things I love from around the Internet this week….
1. It’s still a little chilly here in Germany, but summer is coming up and I’d love to get a floppy hat! Cute + keeps the sun off your face = what’s not to love? : )

2. Speaking of spring, I am soo excited for easy, simple springtime dresses like this one from shabbyapple.com….

3. One of my favorite websites – freundevonfreunden.com – features interviews and great photographs inside the homes of creative professionals. This site’s all in German, but the apartments and designs are so inspiring that I still love it without reading all the details. This apartment is one of my faves!

4. I am really diggin’ the “pathway” theme lately, like in this flickr gallery. I love how… everyone’s path is different.

5. Love the nails, love the ring, love the camera! : )

Happy weekend, everybody! : D
A little bit late but…
Happy New Year’s everyone!! How did you celebrate the new year? I kicked off 2011 with Stephanie and some other friends, a few impromptu resolutions, and looots of cake candy and sugar. It was a great way to end 2010 and welcome 2011!
I wore a blouse from Ann Taylor Loft, a jacket I’ve had for a while, a new gray scarf I got for Christmas (!), and gold Toms. : )
I also tried to follow along with this super cool scarf-tying technique… but I didn’t quite get it right. I think it turned out pretty well, though! : )
Here’s hoping everyone has a great 2011!
Purple net patterned tights from Target, an H&M belt from a few years back, some Target shoes, NY&C sweater I’ve had for a while, and a skirt from Macy’s!
Dark turquoise sweater from Ann Taylor Loft, orange tights from Target, and a skirt from the Gap a couple of years ago!
Came back home this weekend for the Harry Potter premier! I didn’t pack any spare clothes for church, and when I stood in front of my nearly empty closet at home, I realized: having clothes here, there, and everywhere makes you get creative.
I was lucky to pull together this outfit from among the things I didn’t carry to school!
Black dress from Target, belt from H&M several years ago, and a vintage sweater that belonged to my great-grandmother!
