Bahama Momma

Today, I'm breaking my leave of absence with a very serious topic. THRIFTING. I know, not exactly ground breaking stuff here. But, it's something I've been under rating for years.
I used to love thrifting, but somewhere along the line I got lazy (and honestly wasteful with my money). But, I've been so into the "Dad Closet" trend that I had to go back and rekindled my love with thrifting.


If you don't know what I mean by "Dad Closet", I mean oversized, vintage, effortless pieces that are comfy with a little edge to it. I went to my local value village and bought about 7 or 8 tee shirts for like $25 and it was miraculous.


Not only have I been getting my shit straight, I just got all four of my wisdom teeth removed. So, post-Op I had really no interest in wearing anything that wasn't comfy. So I chose this oversized tacky tourist shirt with a short pair of cutoffs poking out. Of course to kick up my street cred a little, I paired it with classic all white Nike Air Force One's.













Let me know in the comments if you'd want to see a series on thrifted pieces
See yah soon,

By The Lake

So here in Canada, this weekend was the August long weekend. Meaning we got Monday off just for the fun of it. Lucky for me, I spent the weekend with friends and family, and even made some new friends in the process.


 
One of my best friends Monica's Family Friends were generous enough to invite them out to the cottage. It was an amazing time, and has Monica and I thinking we need to invest in one of our own!


 
What better way to appreciate nature than in your own backyard. In this case, I wish this was my backyard but it definitely shows howclose a little vacation can be. As lovers of the water, Monica and I didn’twant to get off the boat. After taking it to the cutest ice cream shop around,we did a fare bit of tubing. Although, it seemed a little bit more likeclinging onto dear life. It was a blast and we truly didn’t want to leave.

This was an amazing experience for both of us, who hope tomove further north in the future. We’ve now got our Pinterest boards filledwith lake houses and rustic décor.

See yah soon,
