Ignoring the quality of my camera and the fact that I desperately need a haircut, aren't the locations of these photos great? I've been wanting to take pictures around this building for awhile, but I failed on Friday when it started pouring. Luckily, T.J. and I went back on Saturday before the hot air balloon rally, and it worked out even better since no one was around. We originally were just going to take pictures in front of that unique door, but the steps made it hard to get a good angle. T.J. did climb into a nearby tree at one point (his idea), but it didn't end up helping. I convinced him to let me take pictures of him in the tree, but he won't let me post them anywhere. Lame.
In other news, the weather has been wonderful lately. It's still pretty warm, but it's been cool enough to get away with sweaters and light jackets. Naturally, I'll be wearing one or other every day this week. Hope everyone is having a good (or bearable at least) Monday!

Looking through the photos I kept thinking how much I liked that elbow-patched cardi and then that's what you were writing about too! So fun!
ReplyDeleteThe relationships that spring up really are great.
I love a good fall sweater - and I'm so happy that it's starting to be cool enough to wear them! Your Anthropologie necklace is amazing and I love your dress and shoes, too. So basically I love your whole outfit. And I'm not just saying that, I promise! I hope you had a lovely weekend!
ReplyDeleteYou are just adorable! I LOVE the sweater from Katherine (isn't she great?), it looks fabulous on you. Your dress is so cute and the necklace is awesome. I pretty much love every single thing about this outfit! :)

I miss wearing sweaters (it has been really really hot in here so I don't get to do any layering, sadly) but I love that cardigan you're wearing! it's so cute, I love the elbow patch! :) great photos as well, love the portrait of you where you're similing! :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great week, girl!

Ah! QT as always!! Really love that dress and I have those shoes! But the tan ones :-) Miss all your posts and I love the header!! Really cuuuuute.
ReplyDeletehahah woaaah, such extremes TJ went to get the right shot! i wish my guy would be dedicated enough to climb some trees ;) but this really is a cute location- love that door! and how nice of the blogger to give away her things- you scored with that sweater, i love anything with elbow patches too!
ReplyDeleteOooh love that buffalo exchange dress! And the newly acquired cardigan is AMAZING!!! I have been collecting fabric scraps with the plan of sewing patches on to sweaters this winter, but we will see if that actually happens! The location is the best too, pretty buildings, wahoo! So funny that TJ was up in a tree trying to get a good shot, now THATS dedication!
ReplyDeleteThanks for you sweet (as usual) comments on my new blog post too! I read your previous post about meeting super kind blogger friends recently and I 100% agree!
:)
No, you're the best. I'm having a great time creeping on your blogging friends too because they are all really nice! The cardigan is lovely, even better now that it is cardigan weather! I'm totally with you on just barely getting away with wearing them, but doing it despite the weather anyway! I love those elbow patches! Also love that TJ got in a tree! He's really taking the blog-photographer thing seriously! Cute cute look. I need to get a statement necklace. Happy happy Monday to you Elana!
