Cactus pin. I mean, I already own a few but just like real plants you can never have too many!
Lately I’ve been thinking of getting rid of my bulletin board since it just seems to attract clutter. I LOVE the way this looks!
More cactus pins! This time hand-cut and hand-stitched!
Yes, please! This phone case is the bee’s knees!
This card is the cutest!

▴ Crazy cactus lady! A very appropriate patch for me!
▴ When you don’t need a stapler for any reason but it’s so cute you start to convince yourself you do…
▴ If you own tons of cute notebooks, why shouldn’t your pens be cute too!?
▴ Hello, Sunshine!
▴ I blame it on growing up obsessed with the Spice Girls, I love this lapel pin!

birthday wishlist 2016

by Kaylah Stroup

The end of July means one thing to me – that my birthday is rapidly approaching! August 2nd! Wooo! I’ve only been counting down the days since…uh… my last birthday? Just a few more weeks now! It’s basically tradition by now to share a birthday wishlist here on the blog so here’s 2016’s list…

1. Yep, still dreaming of owning a full sized skeleton! It’d just fit so perfect with my decor!

2. I somehow don’t own a black camera bag, well not one that looks nice with dresses. This one from Epiphanie sounds awesome! It can even be worn three ways; shoulder, cross-body or as a backpack. How cool is that!?

3. Kat Von D’s tattoo liner in Trooper!

4. This tank top! Because maybe owning something not black and white striped would be okay for once? …Only if it has a cactus on it though. 

5. An Ulta gift card would rule! I really do love trying out new make-up and as much as I would love to receive a basket of things I don’t really trust anyone to pick out things for me yet. Top of my wishlist would be Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick. I’ve read such good things about it and I love Stila!

6. I really want a kayak. A few years ago a friend’s mom was talking about how much she loved finding marbles on a secret beach she kayaked to. My interested was piqued then but it wasn’t until recently that Jeff and I started talking about how much fun kayaks would be. There are tons of places nearby to
go, and it really does sound like the best way to spend an afternoon! Totally not picky about what kind or what it looks like right now. As a beginner, I really just want something that will get me around the lake without any leaks! In true if you give a mouse a cookie form, I would need all the fixings to haul it too.

7. Film! Always need film! I have two road trips coming up this summer, and instant film is an essential.

8. Because a girl can never have enough pairs of Palladium Boots! For real though, the more I walk the more I love and appreciate Palladium. This pair would look SO cute with dresses, which is essential for summer!

9.  I’m still mourning the loss of my last pair of Joules rain boots. I like this bee pair! I know, who in the heck puts rain boots on their birthday wishlist? I wore mine a ton though. Never really realized just how often until they got a hole in them!

10. This bedding is what my dreams are made of. I prefer comforters instead of duvets and their separate covers but I guess I could make an exception in this case! Seriously, that bed looks PERFECT.

Another short, albeit expensive, list this year. There are lots of non-tangible things that I really want for my birthday as well. Bike rides and ice cream with friends (are you reading this Jake, Anji, Jason? Hi! Put air in your tires!), time spent with family, and of course, a roadtrip or three with my favorite dude. Maybe a trip to an abandoned hospital too? That sounds nice!

Happy Friday!!

 Absolutely love this lapel pin. Not only is it cute, it’s for a good cause. Did you know that black cats have the lowest adoption and highest euthanasia rate? 20% of sales from this pin will be donated to SPCA! Now go adopt a black kitty!
This photo is supposed to be all about that couch but dude, that room is so awesome!
This dresser is so darn cool!
 (via: Anthropologie)
 I didn’t know they made instant lens filters! These look really fun.

 (via: Cat Coven)

Link Love…
▴ This bra and panties set looks SO cozy!
▴ This quilt is really cute and I love that there is a kitty photographed on it but what really won my heart was that it showed up on my recommendations on etsy with “quilts for babies of all kinds” written underneath. I always see cute baby quilts but figure they’re of no use to me, thinking of it that way changes everything.
▴ Pink cowboy boots!
▴ These coasters would fit in perfectly in my house!
▴ Mustard colored flats? Yes, please. These babies are perfect for spring.
▴ Angie over at SilverSpoon London once again killing me with gorgeous hotels! A blood red pool!

Happy Friday!

These lights are kind of weird but for some reason I can’t help but want them! They’d look so awesome in an industrial loft beside my pretty blue lockers.

Advice for everyone, everyday.

Mine and Jeff’s two year anniversary is coming up next month. I already found (and purchased) the perfect card a little while back but this one was a close second. So cute!
Why does Crosley have to do this to me!?

Link love…
▴ So Kate Funk takes the BEST photos of her cat, AC. Their 2016 calendar is marked way way down, like you’re dumb not to buy it cheap! I just can’t get enough of her photos!
▴ Vintage Optical Shop has literally the most amazing selection of vintage glasses I have ever seen.
▴ How dreamy are these sandals!?
▴ Washi tape covered in planets!!
▴ This floral bathing suit is adorable! …But I still don’t think anything is better than this donut one!

Happy Friday!
