SOME BRIGHT MORNING

I feel like I've been all over the place lately (both mentally and physically!), and in a way it feels great. The downfall is that I haven't been able to bring you guys an outfit post in a while! Amy and I are planning and working hard to not let traveling and distance come between us. 

In my travels I picked up these amazing vintage cowboy boots (probably from the 80's) for a cheap price at a flea market. I love these babies so much, and they really give me the break I need from sandals and short boots in the summer. 

I've also had one of my favorite folk hymnals stuck in my head all weekend after seeing the sunrises at my family's lake house. Here's a picture of one of the mornings there and the song! My favorite version is by Alison Krauss and Gillian Welch (they're my girls<3).

SUNFLOWER SUMMER

One of the things that I love best about summer is the ease of outfitting. This past weekend Danny and I headed back to his parents house and stayed the weekend. I love going there because it's so quiet and peaceful in the fields and barn. I couldn't resist having him take a few pictures of me. I love this Some Days Lovin dress because it's light weight and has one of my favorite flowers on it! I've also been totally into my wool hat as a simple accessory to any outfit. New England summers can be so unpredictable, and so far there's been some comfortable days where my wool hat can be included. Do you Bloomers have any hat suggestions?

MY HEART IS A BLUE RIDGE MOUNTAIN

Sometimes I feel like my heart resides in many places, and like home isn't just one house. I have family scattered throughout New England and am grateful that they let me stay with them whenever. When Rachel and I headed to Stowe, VT this past week I know I would have a great time. We stayed at my aunt and uncle's house. Whenever I return there I feel like a part of me ignites. I guess you can say whenever I frequent the places I've grown up, I feel like sense of myself coming back to me. I definitely couldn't help taking a few outfit pictures in my aunt's beautiful yard. It was so bright and sunny that day! I wanted to keep it simple with my logger boots and long, farm skirt, but adding the bandage top and necklace helped me to feel a little "dressed up". 

I hope everyone's weekend has been well spent and that you're all finding the positive in the simple beauty of the days!

FEATURE FRIDAY // RACHEL

Sometimes it feels good to road trip for a week with your best friend, and that's exactly what my week consisted of! This is my (Annalise's) childhood best friend, Rachel. We met at the age of seven when both of us were in the same class and gymnastics class. Ever since then, we have had an inseparable bond. This week her and I decided to head up to the Adirondacks and then over to Stowe, Vermont. While we were there I had to get some pictures of her. I describe Rachel as the all-American, country loving girl. Her simplicity compliments her natural beauty, and she's always a ray of sunshine! Get to know her more here!
