This Moment… In July 2010

Necklaces

Listening… (and quite obsessively, might I add) to the new Sia and Stars albums. Both have been on constant repeat in iTunes the entire month. I can’t tear myself away from them!

Cooking… myself the most delicious shrimp and snow pea pasta. Perhaps there’s hope for me and my cooking skills yet.

Hanging… pictures on my walls. My apartment is slowly looking less like a disaster zone and more like a home. Once I get all my furniture, I promise I will post pictures.

Wearing… my favourite black and white ikat skirt. I love it so and wear it perhaps a little too often.

Anticipating… August 11th, the end of my summer semester and the beginning of 2.5 glorious school-free weeks. I can’t wait!

I ♥ Anna Inghardt… Part 2

I’m like a moth to flame when it comes to Anna Inghardt‘s photography. Her photos seem to capture a mystical dream world floating through a sea of white. They’re like being caught on a crisp morning just as the fog starts to fade and you begin to see the little details of the world poking through and waiting to be found. Every time I see she’s added a new photograph to her stream on Flickr, I get a little twinge of delight in my heart. She’s one of the very few photographers whose work I would know in an instant and whose work time and time again blows my mind.

Ocean City Girl

16 July 2010

Hello, my lovelies! It’s been what seems like an eternity. But I’m still alive and kickin’. It’s been a super stressful semester for me which in turn has meant my blog activities have decreased exponentially. I hate that that’s the case, but such is life, non?

As a bit of a de-stresser after my midterm projects were turned in, I went on a little adventure to the ocean with a friend last week. So much fun. I forgot how much I loved going to the ocean. This is why I’m an east coast girl; without that water on my doorstep, it just doesn’t feel right.

A Lovely Little Cottage

Behold, quite possibly, the most adorable little cottage I’ve ever seen.  This sweet little cottage started out as a hunting cabin before being converted into a charming little Victorian-inspired retreat. I love it to pieces! I wish I had my own little place to retreat to in the woods to just rest, and enjoy being alone in the silence of the forest. And being in such a pretty little place such as this could only make my little fantasy all the more happiness-inducing.
