Bohemian Bathroom Details

I've been tweaking our bathroom a bit here and there and I've been loving the little details.  I took out our ugly old medicine cabinet mirror and replaced it with this circular mirror.  It doesn't quite cover the hole from the original medicine cabinet so I need to do some patching (as you can see in the last photo), but I love how much bigger and more open it makes the space feel. I also have had the little moon hook and dip dye macrame plant holder for years and have never found the right spot for them, and this little corner in the bathroom feels like the perfect nook!

A Peek at Jack's Room

I still have some things to do to finish up Jack's new attic room, but here's a little sneak peek!

Exploring Tacoma with Modcloth

Being back in Tacoma has been wonderful.  Getting to hang out at my old haunts (ok well, rarely. The child in tow makes "hanging out" a little more complicated these days), go on lady dates with my gals, and sometimes I don't even mind the rain.  Ok that's a lie, I still hate the rain most days.  I partnered up with Modcloth to share some of my favorite spots in Tacoma, so you can jump on over to their blog and check out my reccs!

Slow Sundays

It's that time of year when being outside means being pelted with rain, so I'm hiding indoors today instead.  These days I don't often find myself wearing a cute outfit, I usually just wear whatever I slept in until I decide to leave the house and then I just throw on some jeans and a top and call it good because I'm just going to cover it all up in a coat.  Oh, and a hat is absolutely necessary on 99% of days because my hair lately is just the worst.  Hence the messy braid AND the hat displayed here.  

With the exception of the shoes, this whole outfit was thrifted.  Most was thrifted this summer while I was living in the Portland area (the cardigan I got many years ago at Goodwill and is a staple in my closet).  At the time I was feeling super motivated to give my personal style more attention, aaaand then we moved and life got crazy and getting dressed became the last thing on my list to be given more than a passing thought.  Blows my mind that I used to do outfit photos every. single. day.  Girl had so much more time on her hands.  I'd kill for that time now that I'm a mom.

Anyway, Sundays are kind of a reset day for us here.  I've been trying to keep up a routine of deep cleaning one room in the house, watering all my plants, and grooming Dusty every Sunday.  If I don't, then those things just get forever pushed to the bottom of my to-do list and then all my plants will be hanging on for dear life, our house is a shit-hole, and Dusty's nails are way too long.  So, boring but necessary, and at least today Dan made blueberry pancakes for brunch so I'm running on carbs and butter rn.

What I Wore: Anniversary Outing

Today I wore a similar outfit to this one and it reminded me that I never posted these quick snaps from our anniversary outing in Portland!  We had a great time in Portland, eating and exploring.  In the morning we sought out brunch, which is easy in Portland, and we ended up at The Hazel Room, which is delicious (and also served us the largest glasses of champagne we've ever had).  Alter, which is the wonderfully witchy shop next door was a great spot to browse as we waited for our table (but also a little painful because I wanted ev.ery.thing.) 

After brunch, we hopped next door to House of Vintage which was super incredible.  I found the most amazing hand embroidered duster dress.  We stayed at the Ace Hotel Portland, and that afternoon after checking in, we wandered around downtown, popping into shops and then eventually catching Clyde Commons for happy hour drinks and fries.  After that we grabbed and uber and headed to Church, then our favorite Portland spot: Hale Pele.  From there we went to a cozy little speakeasy called Bible Club (so cool!)

The next morning we brunched yet again, this time at The Country Cat!  I didn't take any photos of our Portland adventures, opting to enjoy the moments in real time, but Dan did snap these few pics of my outfit, which I felt cute wearing.
