Three Oh!

It's my birthday and I'll collage if I want to : )

Perusing my "blog" folder on my Mac is one of my absolute favorite things to do. Whenever I need outfit inspiration, a dose of artistic energy or general pick-me-up, I sift through my images. Being that I'm a total hoarder, I seriously have thousands. Here's a few I found last night and the reasons I love them:

above:
{because I'm a real sucker for an eclectic living room bookcase...you know the people that live here are super worldly and so not boring}

{because all i want to do today is spend it with my baby boy, my hubs & my dog}

{because my favorite book at one point was "The Secret Garden" & well, who doesn't love this?}

{because a no-makeup makeup look is the absolute prettiest, agree?}

{because my best friend just had a baby girl & dressing Gemma adorably is how I plan on being her aunt!}

{because no one does it better than Audrey...watching her sing Moon River at the end of Breakfast at Tiffany's is wayyyyy up there on my list}

{because I believe in living glamorously, well, as much as possible with an infant}

{because NO birthday of mine is complete without a cupcake...white frosting's my fave... and since I just entered my THIRD decade, I think I'll take three}

{and because in seventh grade, as Lost Boy "Tootles" in my school play I promised I'd never grow up...and I don't break my promises}
