loving the things from the Snoozer Loser Spring/Summer collection. isn’t that a cute romper?

such beautiful photography {and clothing!} from the Wilfred Spring/Summer collection. I could just dive right in.

last night, dlb and I started talking about where we want to go for our honeymoon. he wants to scuba dive, I want to lounge in the sun. naturally I’ll need a new swim suit and the collection at Anthropologie is super cute right now…


whew!! hi friends! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. mine was so much fun and flew by so quickly. but was worth every minute. the Summer Social was an absolute blast. Abby totally rocked it. that girl knows how to organize a party, that’s for sure. the day was so amazing and everything went off without a hitch. thanks so much to everyone who was able to stop by, grab a piece of pie or homemade ice cream, and lounge on vintage blankets on the lawn and listen to some beautiful music. we’ve started a flickr group where you can check out everyone’s photos from the day.
and… as promised, we’ve got some exciting news for those of you around the country who couldn’t make it! starting this Friday we will have a temporary online Summer Social Sale shop! Abby will be adding a sampling of everyone’s goods to the shop throughout the week for you to browse through. the shop will open at 10 a.m. PST on July 31 and will be open for two weeks or until we sell out. pretty exciting, right??
happy monday!

because I was dreaming about my weekend yesterday, you get lots of posts today. hooray! this weekend, I’m participating in the Summer Social Sale, hosted by the lovely Abby of Abby Try Again. I’m very excited for a couple of reasons.
#1 – I’ll be in the company of some really amazing women.
#2 – there will be ice cream and treats.
#3 – Chelsea and Lisa of Urban Weeds, Portland’s newest street style blog, will be there taking photos.
#4 – it’s all about summer at the state fair
#5 – I’m debuting my goods from Postal Press. here’s another little sneak peak from Postal Press, including my business cards and two little journals.

for those of you who are in Portland, please stop by! it’s going to be so much fun. I’d love to see you!

I adore these two dresses. wouldn’t they be perfect for summer picnics and bbqs?

I’m totally loving the safari girl look for summer. cool natural fabrics, soft neutral colors… never have I ever wanted a jean jacket more than I do right now.
speaking of sarafi… I’m sure it may be old news to some, but I came upon this incredibly moving video last night of a story about a lion named Christian, and cried my eyes out of truly utter amazement. seriously… go watch it. now.

I’m refusing to let this afwul-dreary-rainy-grey weather we’re having in Portland this week get to me. instead, I’m dreaming about all the cute summery clothes that I’d be wearing if I was frolicking in the sunshine. Swell always has cute cotton dresses for super good prices.

Joanna asked me what I enjoyed most about summer. check out my favorites plus those of other fantastic readers on Smitten.
