Christmas Cub

Shop this post: 

We had a bigger Christmas get-together than usual this year and it was a great holiday. I decided to keep my outfit simple, so I opted for this comfy LBD and dressed it up with a glitzy vintage necklace my grandma gave to me when I was younger. Not that it really matters, since Lucy obviously stole the show in these pictures. However, judging from her quizzical look, she probably wasn't as big of a fan of this Christmas photoshoot as I was.

Happy about it or not, she's still the cutest little bear and a wonderful addition to my family. It's crazy to think my parent got her almost exactly a year ago, since it feels like she has been part of the family forever.

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! ♥

Secret Spot

Get the look:

I finally discovered a place to take blog photos at work! It's a secluded stairwell off our parking lot and the perfect place to set up a tripod without getting weird looks from passersby. While I have (kind of) mastered the art of not caring what random people think, it is nice to take my outfit photos in peace. Really though...I was weirdly excited when I found this secret little spot.

Mainly, I think it's just nice to finally be getting back in the swing of things. If there is anything I've learned about myself over the past few years (or even just this summer, really), I desperately need a schedule. I gave up the grand idea of being "crazy and spontaneous" a while ago...and I think I'm okay with it :)
