Closet Update: November 2018

Walking into November after a low-spend month, I knew that this month could only unfold in two ways: 1) I … More

Lately, I’ve been trying to step up my jewelry game, especially with my earrings. I’m typically one to wear the same pair of studs and small hoops for months (or even a year or two) at a time and never change them out (the same goes for my rings, bracelets, and necklaces too ha). But with my simple outfits, I’m starting to realize the power of adding accessories. I took these beautiful #gifted @relleryofficial oval hoops with me to the desert and I loved wearing them! ✨ . .

“Go to the garden When you need to Remember that Everything is love.” 💚 . . Our little 400 sq ft apartment (and front patio) is slowly getting filled with plants, and I couldn’t be any happier! We are proud parents of 27 plant babies 🌵 and we haven’t killed any this year! Sometimes I find myself just staring at them. They make me so happy and have brought me a whole lot of peace this year. They remind me that growth is always happening; that beautiful things take time; and that there’s always light to be found. //#pleblife

Yesterday was a big day. A really, really big day. It was mine and Brandon’s fifth anniversary together. Yesterday was also the last day with a group of 24 little humans that I had the honor to teach and help grow for the last two years. And finally, yesterday marked the end of an era with my two wonderful teammates of the last three years. . . In this last trip around the sun, these 27 different humans have touched and changed my life. 🌞 I’ve grown so much because of all of them and I’m so grateful for the universe for putting them in my life. Thank you to my students for teaching me to let things go because things rarely ever go to plan; to be flexible and to go with the flow of life; and to trust in the process and enjoy the journey. Thank you to my teammates, Lawren & Savannah, for accepting me for me, flaws and all; for being there for me through thick and thin, the bad and the good; and for reminding me to take care of myself more often. And to Brandon—thank you for supporting my happiness these last five years; thank you for being my favorite person to do everything and nothing with; and thank you for encouraging me to be my best self while still loving me for who I am right now. . . I love you all so very much. I am so very, very blessed. 💛 #pleblife

Going to the Saguaro National Park someday has been a dream of mine since I fell in love with the desert a few years ago! 🌵 I just love how big and squishy they look! You can’t even imagine the level of excitement I was feeling when I saw these babies! I squealed so loudly when I pulled up to our @airbnb and saw that we had two of these giant pretty babies in our front yard! 😍 They made me smile every time we walked out the door last weekend! Thank you @callmeflowerchild for capturing my excitement! #pleblife

Some of my current favorite secondhand finds: my beloved camera that I got used on eBay; my new-to-me sunglasses, and my latest obsession—this book that’s titled, How to Make Love to a Cactus. 💛🌵 . . When I go thrifting, in all the clutter, I like to think that pieces are looking for me rather than the other way around. And well, this book definitely found me this weekend in the desert. In a vintage clothing store filled with racks and racks of clothes, I was drawn to a small shelf of books tucked away in the corner. I sat myself down on the floor and ran my hand through dozens of books before discovering this one. It has the most incredible watercolor paintings of cacti and the sweetest thoughts from the artist while she was painting them. Welcome to your new home little book! 📚 I can’t wait to put you on a coffee table someday! . . @laurenmarigold Can I still be a part of the #thriftweekclub with these thrifted goods? 🧡 // #pleblife

I am not fully healed, I am not fully wise, I am still on my way. What matters is that I am moving forward. — @yung_pueblo 💛 . . When Hanna from @sotelaco showed previews of the Sol Collection back in Spring, I fell in love with this wrap dress (the yellow one actually!). A few weeks later, we grabbed breakfast and she generously offered to gift me a piece from her new collection. After seeing the rest of the dreamy lookbook, I knew immediately that I was going to buy the new lyla crop tanks on my own, and so I was left with the choices of jumpsuit, pants, or this dress. Despite knowing that the pants or the jumpsuit would be more “me,” I impulsively chose to receive the Luna Wrap Dress (in black obviously) and figured I would worry about styling it later. . . Fast forward a few weeks ago, Hanna delivered the linen goods over tacos and I was SO excited. It was like Christmas but in June! My first thoughts when trying on this dress was, “Whoa! Cleavage!” and “So this is what a wrap dress looks like on me. Interesting.” But then all my insecurities started to wash over me: some scars I have on my boobs from an unfortunate cooking incident; my not-so-small waist; my thunder thighs being exposed by a gust of wind; etc. So I took it off; sat with my feelings; and let it rest in my wardrobe until it was time to go to the desert. . . Up until this last weekend, I had no idea how I was going to style this dress. When it was time to go to the park, I tried it on with the sandals that I packed, and walked out with these beige, woven sandals. With no full length mirror, there was nothing for me to judge myself against. I began to notice how the dress made me feel: beautiful, feminine, and whimsical. My insecurities grew quieter with every step we took deeper into the desert. A gust of wind did expose my thighs while we there, but you know what? I survived and no one laughed at me. I laughed at myself actually because I was just so happy and feeling so good. And so I wanted to say thank you to Hanna for making clothes that make me feel beautiful and brave to challenge my insecurities. 💛 #pleblifet
