The Nectar of Spring,

romper: goodwill, wedges: vera wang, kohl's, trench coat: the gap
Say hello to my new favorite trench coat! My mom generously gifted it to me this past weekend - apparently it was on huge sale at the Gap so my mom actually bought the same coat for herself. I'm in absolute love with this beigey, dusty pink color... Perfect for this season seeing as pastels are so in trend right now. I don't have many pastels so I think this is a great addition to my wardrobe! In addition, there are reasons - that I have yet to unveil! - as to why this coat will be useful in the future... ;) Stay tuned!

This year I think I have become more in love with spring as a season. Prior to now I always enjoyed autumn the best. But spring has been so beautiful! I  mean, just look at the flowers behind me in these photos. As I was taking these pictures, I reveled in the sweet scent of the blossoms and temporarily forgot about the stress that has been filling my mind and my body this week.

As you can imagine, it's just about crunch time and the final push to get everything done this school year. I really can't believe how it got to this point so quickly and in a few short weeks I will be graduating from high school. Here's a little rundown of the major things happening for me in May: AP tests, senior recital, and senior project presentations. Knowing me and the fact that I use blogging as a relaxation tool and something to keep my mind off of the stress, I probably won't stop blogging in May. However, if I do, then you know why.

Thanks for all your awesome comments, for visiting and for taking time out of your lives to catch up with me! I love you all. xx

currently listening to... Nothing!

    Ooh! Another senior! Only one of my IRL friends are graduating this year, but so many of my blogging friends are! Are you having any kind of graduation party? I'm in the midst of planning a *huge* shindig! I'm so excited and working on tons of DIY projects for it! <3

  14. That dusty pink color is so perfect on you! You are seriously the best at wearing muted colors...something that never looks half as good on me. The trench is gorgeous and so are you in those glasses. I desperately need a new pair to give my eyes a rest from the contacts.

    It really is hard to believe how fast senior year goes by...it's the same way with college too! Congrats darling...not too much longer to go:) Have a relaxing weekend as much as possible. xx Marisa

  15. I remember the last month of high school... memories. Busy memories haha. I hope you get through it smoothly! I'm sure you will. Once AP tests were over everything was pretty easy for me.

    Also, that new coat is fantastic. I'm sure it'll be a staple in your wardrobe for years to come!

  16. Are you moving to Seattle?! Or rainy Washington!? Can't wait to see which college you choose! That trench is wonderful and so timeless!!

    I'm sending my best wishes and prayers to you as you wrap up high school! Don't forget to still take it all in and enjoy it -- because it goes by too fast!!

    But stopping to smell the flowers is definitely important :) <3<3
