Forgive me you guys – this post might be more for me than it is for you. I just couldn’t help posting all these pics from our little getaway to Carmel, CA a couple weekends ago. Why? Mostly because: a) Carmel is wet-your-pants gorgeous and enchanting and quaint and everything that’s nice in the world, b) turns out this blog here sometimes turns into a little diary of sorts, and c) I just really like these people I get to call my family and the memories I create with them are special to me. So I hope that’s ok and you’re not real real mad about this. As it happens, I did NOT think to myself (for the record): ‘Gee, I bet they’re just dying to see a bum-load of pictures of me and my family, cuz who could ever get sick of that?’ Ummmmmm yeah – if I ever…
Cowboy Boots for Carmel, CA
A couple weekends ago, the fam-dam and I paid a visit to lovely, gorgeous, wet-my-pants beautiful Carmel and Monterey, California. It called for comfy, casual wear and definitely comfy shoes! Enter: Cowboy Boots. Boo-yah. With these babies on, I was good to go for the entire day (k that’s a lie… it was only for most of the day. In my cowboy boots defense though, after about 7 or 8 hours of walking, very few shoes (that aren’t something a 90 year old lady would wear, or Toms) will still have your feet feeling lovely by the end of the day. Right guys? Right? Mmmmmright?)… what was I rambling about again? Am I talking? And should I be calling them cowgirl boots? What say ye? Can we talk about this necklace though (don’t we just discuss the deepest topics on this here blog?)? Isn’t it adorbs? Peeps – if you…

There’s a Party in my Pastels & You’re Invited…
How does that phrase usually go? There’s a party in my… socks? Pants?! Honey Bunches of Oats? Well, either way – the important message here is that YOU’RE INVITED! You’re invited to laugh in my general direction in a mocking manner since none of this makes sense and I sound like a big blithering idiot. Um, is it the weekend yet? Mmmmmmmk. Forward and onward. The truth is pastels make me weak in the knees. I saw this pastel yellow blazer at H&M and had to take it home with me. Mostly cuz I heart the pastels. I heart them good. Like, if pastels were a boy, his name would be Chase Willardson and I’d convince him that his life would be a miserable, boring-as-death mess without me in it, and then I’d marry the crap out of him. Yep – that’s would I’d do with Pastels (the boy… who…
