I remember when bright red lips were becoming trendy. I tried them out at the makeup counter and I thought I looked silly so I could never get into it. Since then, I’ve been dreaming about a day when I can pull them off. This photo is motivating. I think I need a trip to the makeup counter soon!
Have you tried bright lipstick lately? What’s your favorite shade?

Who knew sequins could look so chic with plaid! PS: For being MIA this weekend/Monday! It was my birthday Saturday and we celebrated all weekend. It was tons of fun!
What’s your favorite unlikely combo?
Since watching Moonrise Kingdom, A and I have been talking about converting our secret attic room into a cute “tent.” This beautiful inspiration on A Subtle Revelry had me lusting after a sweet and feminine version. I’m extra loving those stars & giant flowers.
Do you have an attic room? What have you done with it?

My morning tea is my ritual. The smell and warm cup in my hands is so calming. I think I may need to work this heart cup into the routine though especially for February.
Are you a coffee or tea drinker?

I need a bright pick me up today, so when I saw this picture I knew it would do the trick for anyone else out there that needs a color dose. I’ve been trying to bring color into our dining room to make it a fun place for people to hang out. I love this inspiration.
What is your dining room style?

With the winter in full swing (this morning was 22 degrees here!), there’s nothing cozier than sitting on the couch with our fuzzy beasts and warm blankets with hot cocoa and a good book. Aww this makes me want to snuggle with my pet bunny Jake.
Do you have pets?

Merry Christmas! I hope you are spending time with loved ones on this day.
What are you plans for today?
The Portland Aquarium opened last weekend and we went to pet the stingrays and sharks. I got A’s parents a membership for Christmas and I can’t wait for them to explore it too! I used to wander in awe at the Monterey Bay Aquarium and wished I could stay for hours and stare at the jellyfish. I thought this color palette was perfect in celebration for our first visit!
Have you ever been to an aquarium?

We cut down our Christmas tree last weekend. it’s our first Christmas tree in this house and the first one I’ve ever picked out and cut down. We picked up some ornaments from some vintage shops and I began decorating. After I finished I realized that I just about chose the girliest colors ever. The whole tree glowed of pink, purple, and gold much to A’s dismay. He was a good sport and said he liked it though. Haha. The air is now rich with sap and our house officially smells like the holidays!
Do you usually get a tree for the holidays?
