project 365

330 : 365 Went to get outfit photos but chickened out after a few shots because it was COLD. It’s that wonderful time of the year where it looks fairly nice outside but is actually like negative forty seven. But look how cute my coat is with that inner leopard print!!

331 : 365 Sushi socks! Also, Christmas tree! Woo! We were debating if we’d even put one up this year but holy smokes, I’m glad we went for it. It just makes the whole room so cozy. I’m going to be very sad when it’s time to pack it away for the year.

332 : 365 Squid hanging out on the arm of my office chair. It’s so distracting when either one of the cats wants to sit with me but it’s so sweet that I just can’t tell them no.

333 : 365 Some beach finds. My favorite of the day being that little donkey. It’s just a silly little plastic toy but I really like the way the lake weathered him. Check out more of my found on the beach arrangements here.

334 : 365 Klaus thinking that if curls up reeeeeal tiny I won’t notice and kick him off the couch. PS If you missed it last week, I shared a tour of the living room!

335 : 365 Why does this cat always have something stuck to his nose?!

336 : 365 Desk view.

337 : 365 Creep under the Christmas tree. Both Squid and Professor have been sleeping almost exclusively under the tree since I put it up last week. It’s THE cutest.

Hope your week is off to a great start!

323 : 365 Jeff has been taking outfit photos for me lately which is SO NICE. It’s so much easier than me running back and forth to my tripod. I’m loving all the textures and colors in this shot. Can I just have a pair of Palladium Boots in every color?!!

324 : 365 Rearranged some plants so they could reap the benefits of my grow light. (Full review here!)

325 : 365 Picked up some Sally Hansen insta-dri on a whim and remembered why I love that brand so much. I recall liking insta-dri before but I swear this stuff is even better now!  It dries so dang fast. I ended up going back a few days later and grabbing another color. I’m currently wearing leapin’ lilac. It’s beeeeautiful!

326 : 365 Sleepy babies!

327 : 365 Ear photos turned selfie session. I am so so so in love my new earlobes.

328 : 365 Guess what I finally did! Took photos for a living room tour post! What, what!!! I mean, it only took me eleven months. You can look for that coming later this week. My duckling also got a new hat so that’s pretty rad too!

329 : 365 Unboxing the modular cat Christmas tree.

Hope your week is off to an awesome start!

I accidentally took a few weeks off of Project 365. Well, just one week but, of course, sharing my engagement seemed a lot more exciting of a post to share than my Project 365. Since we’ve gotten back from that short vacation life has just been a blur. Between stressing about our wedding (Y’all I’ve already had nightmares about forgetting things but more on all that another day!), and working lots of hours at the flower shop I don’t feel like I’ve had much time to relax. Life feels like it’s on fast-forward. Like how in the world is it the end of November already?

Anyway, in order to get caught up I’m just going to share some of my favorite photos from the last month so far instead of every single photo from the project.

308 : 365 Cisco, Utah at sunset. This was taken just minutes after Jeff proposed. (You can read about that here, in case you missed it.) I still can’t believe this whole trip was real.

309 : 365 One of the things I loved so much about Utah was all of the yellow. All that yellow foliage paired with the gorgeous blue skies was serious eye candy. I took so many photos just like the one below. That photo just feels so warm and comforting to me, like if I were to squint hard enough I’d see myself frolicking in the background. That sounds nutty but y’all this trip easily was my favorite that we’ve taken together and I am obsessed with every little detail.

310 : 365 A little abandoned building we pulled over to check out… and my ring. I always said I’d be one of those people who sneaks their ring into a million photos when it finally hapeened. I probably took about one billion photos of it while we were out west. In ghost towns, with my coffee, with a bison in the background, at In-N-Out, and on and on and on. Totally not excited or anything.

312 : 365 We arrived home from our vacation to a decorated apartment. I guess we have pretty sweet friends…

315 : 365 Two things I love very much – socks and candles. Candelles has such lovely scents. If you’ve never burned one, you’re missing out.

318 : 365 Speaking of candles, wanna know a smart move? Buying candles in cute containers because they’ll end up making nice planters later on.

321 : 365 Jeff and I went out in the rain to shoot some photos. I didn’t end up capturing anything spectacular but it was nice to be reminded how good it feels to be out at night. I loved wandering around in the rain. (Also, I got my hair caught in my jacket zipper while we were out and it was extremely stressful. I will now be about one million times more careful!)

322 : 365 Shimmery new Keds found via Wikibuy– a site you can use to search for sales on all the things you want. They show you all the places said item is being sold and what it costs. They also have an extension will test coupon codes automatically at checkout and will find online rebates from participating retailers. Pretty awesome, especially this time of the year.

Hope your week is off to an awesome start!

302 : 365 Obligatory new glasses selfie! These are SkunkBoy from Bonlook and I don’t think I could love them any more. The shape is just perfect for my face.

303 : 365 These tooth planters are still one of my favorite things around the apartment.

304 : 365 Halloween! I didn’t really dress up, although I did pull a dress from my closet, braid my hair, and of course, sport an Uncle Fester pin in attempt to be a lazy Wednesday Addams. Totally something I’d wear any other day though.

305 : 365 Home, sweet home. I put away “all” my Halloween decor but judging by my lil skeleton pup and that eyeball placemat you probably wouldn’t even realize.

306 : 365 Have you guys tried one of those bubbling face masks yet?! I bought this one. It’s under ten bucks and SO. MUCH. FUN. It feels so funny. I hadn’t planned on taking photos of myself in it (until I realized I didn’t have a photo for the day yet) or else I would have applied it more nicely. Regardless, it’s seriously amazing. (It totally gets way fluffier too!)

307 : 365 My princess, Squid. The cold weather makes her the ultimate cuddle bug and I love it! She’s a fairly reserved kitty but every year around this time she starts following from room to room trying to cuddle up with me, no matter what I’m doing. It’s very sweet. Saturday morning I woke up to her under the covers with me in bed!

Happy Monday! I hope your week is off to a great start!

295 : 365 Kitties, and a most appropriate shirt.

296 : 365 Lurking around an old cemetery with my dude on a rainy day.

297 : 365 One of my largest plants. Sadly, I think this guy is on his way out. It was thriving in my last apartment where it was able to live outside but these days it just doesn’t seem to get enough light. I really appreciate Professor’s grumpy cameo.

298 : 365 Will I ever stop obsessing over these rainbows? I think not.

299 : 365 My little sun kittens. You guys, all of a sudden, my two babies are becoming close than ever. I’ve never actually caught them cuddling with each other but they have been sitting together a lot which is a new thing. This is so exciting!!!

300 : 365 My other life, at the flower shop.

301 : 365 It’s been raining for like a week straight. I can’t decide if I hate it or love it. I did finally go out and get a cute photo with an umbrella which is something I’ve been meaning to do for like ever so that’s cool! Also, this sweater is the bee’s knees!

Hope your week is off to a great start! Happy Monday!

274 : 365 I am dying over Professor’s… everything in that first shot. There are more photos from this little shoot here.

275 : 365 It’s kind of amazing how fresh a new pillow can make your whole living room feel! This one was less than five bucks aaaand I am incredibly pleased with how nicely it ties everything together.

276 : 365 Is it possible to resist one dollar Halloween socks? Nope. Also, matching your hair to your shirt (and shoes) is the best.

277 : 365 For the past two or three years I haven’t been to big on decorating for holidays. This year the urge came back full force and I was disappointed that I had essentially nothing for Halloween. I picked up this pumpkin from Target and feel like, although very minimal, it’s a great start. I plan on stocking up once everything goes on clearance so I’ll be set for next year.

278 : 365 This guy is into the season too!

279 : 365 This doll face may very well be my favorite find ever. The night previous I had actually had a dream about finding a bunch of plastic soldiers on the beach so when I woke up my first thought was ‘I need to go to the beach!’ Not even five minutes after getting there I spotted this little creepy face staring back at me. SCORE!

280 : 365 My estate sale finds of the day. This just might have been the very best estate sale I have ever been to. It was that of a doctor who collected medical quackery and antique odditities. This place just jam packed with all the weirdest stuff. I would have moved in in a heartbeat.

Hope your week is off to an awesome start!
