Thrift haul!

So here is an attempt at another video, slightly less awkward but slightly more sick. I apologize ahead of time for coughing in your faces. I feel like I am getting more and more comfortable being in front of the camera! I can't wait to start making more and more videos of my adventures and what not! Let me know if you have any video suggestions or improvements I could make!

Thanks for watching!

DIY Ideas

School is almost done for the summer and I desperately cannot wait to get back into the swing of things with blogging. I have a lot of new things I plan to try out, so I am super excited. If you guys have any requests or ideas please please PLEASE leave them in the comments. I definitely want to start vlogging more. I think that could be loads of fun, once I get over my whole camera shy thing.

Haha, I actually just bought little kitty flats like these, except they are too small so I might have to do this DIY!

These little twig patio lights are amazing! I think they would be lovely at a wedding.

I have always been a fan of hidden compartments, they make me feel like a spy. I have to make this hidden book storage!

This is sort of a new instagram diy idea, well at least to me. I haven't seen a t shirt diy like this before!

Happy crafting!

Stuff I Luff #61 Springy Edition!

I am so happy we are finally getting little peeks into our future summer life! Yesterday was especially warm and sunny, and I felt great. The weather can really determine your mood sometimes.

1//This dress has my favorite two patterns: floral and stripes!

2//Oh how I love scallops, and the lovely mint color of this bag!

3//Eep! I have been eyeing these bunny flats for quite some time now.

4//These little garden markers are so lovely. I need to get the custom ones for Dom, because he is growing tea making plants! (We haven't completely figured out which yet)

5//I feel that Neutral Milk Hotel is relevant to every season, so this necklace fits.

6//I love these vintage-y sailboat earrings! So simple and pretty.

7//This jam bag reminds me of picnics, and who doesn't love jam?!

So here is a sort of springish Stuff I Luff, let me know what you think about this themed sort of format...or if you just like this numbered format better than the list format I usually do. (Longest run-on sentence ever)

Spring(Err..Autumn) With Critters: Explorer Hannah

Hi everyone! My name is Hannah and I blog over at Nellie and Oliver. I'm really excited to share this post on Chloe's lovely blog. When Chloe emailed me with theme for this guest post series, 'Spring With Critters', I replied and said I would love to be involved but my post would be a little bit different. I live in Sydney, Australia and while everyone in the Northern Hemisphere is gearing up for Spring, we're slowly easing into Autumn.

I took these photos on a Saturday afternoon in my neighbourhood. While we've had some really nice cool mornings lately, this particular afternoon actually felt a lot like it was still Summer and I was a bit too warm in jeans. At least the leaves are slowly changing colour and the chilly mornings are a welcome change on my walks to the train station each day.

Now I wouldn't normally associate the word 'critter' with horses, but unfortunately it's the closest I could get without kidnapping some poor animal from someone's backyard. Our landlord doesn't allow pets in our apartment, so for the meantime I spend my time waiting for my brother to upload a new photo of his gorgeous puppy Chester on Instagram. 

I often wear really casual outfits like this on the weekends, especially when I'm just lazing about the house, cooking up a big breakfast or going for coffee runs to our local cafe. That pretty much sums up how I spent this particular day. I'll conclude with a funny story about these jeans. I wore them to work recently (we have a very casual office) and a colleague of mine excitedly exclaimed, "I love your cat jeans!", to which the rest of the office cracked up laughing and told her to put on her glasses.

Jeans and shirt from Urban Outfitters, Minnetonka moccasins

Thanks to Chloe for having me and I'm looking forward to seeing some more posts in this series, perhaps with some real life critters for me to gush over.

Thank you so much for guest posting, Hannah! Those jeans are adorable and perfect for your upcoming autumn weather!
