Song Of The Day

The Temper Trap - Sweet Disposition

Saturday Morning

Is there anything better than Saturday mornings?  I love sleeping in, being outside, planning a great activity for the day and sometimes cleaning (yes, I really enjoy cleaning – weird, I know).  My husband and I decided to start a new Saturday morning tradition; we are going out to breakfast with friends.  There are so many great breakfast places here in SLC and I just have to try all of them.  Here are a few of my favorites (let me know if you have any other great suggestions, I love to try new places):

Eggs In The City

The Park

Blue Plate Diner

“Ahoy, I Sail”

I don’t know much about actual sailing or the equipment needed to sail nevertheless, I just love everything about sailboats.  I love the nautical feel, I love the look of the sails, I love when they are in the marina and the tall masts make a great picture, I love the water, I love the idea of wearing boat shoes and cable knit sweaters, I love the bright white color and a touch of cobalt blue.  I guess I feel like there is something dreamlike about the idea of a sailboat and I can’t help but want to frame pictures of them and long for the sailing lifestyle (minus anything to do with fish, of course).  But the best part might be the fact that you have to give your sailboat a completely awesome name – puns welcomed!  So just for sheer fun, what would you name your sailboat???

My Go-To Outfit

Why is it that in a closet full of clothes I can’t find anything to wear?  I have days were I try on 20 different outfits and then just end up wearing something that’s mediocre at best.  Because of these fashion nightmares I like to have my go-to outfit (after hours of waiting my husband made me find one).  When I need to be ready quickly I can just throw something on and know it looks great.  This is my go-to outfit; use it when you’re having one of those days.

Dark Jeans (straight/skinny leg, boyfriend, or wide leg)

Grey Shirt

Bold Necklace

Fun Flats

Bright Lips (with barely there makeup)

Independence Day

Oh the patriotic colors…red, white and blue.  This time of year we start to put out our American flags, set tables with red plates and wear blue shirts and white cutoff shorts.  You start to feel that inner pride, the feeling you get when you’re proud to be an American.  I love when the sun starts to set and everyone grabs their blankets and heads outside to watch the fireworks.  This is a great country and I’m very blessed to be born the good ol’ USA.

Enjoy this American classic…

Old Movies

My mother provided me with quite the education when it comes to old movies.  At a young age I learned to appreciate the talent of mid-century movie stars.  In those days, it wasn’t enough to just act, you had to sing and dance also.  Rarely today do we see a triple threat like we did so often back then.  Although I’ve seen my fare share of current films, old movies seem to take over my “all-time favorites” list.  Here are three that are at the top (I highly recommend adding them to your Netflix queue). 

My Fair Lady ahh the costumes, amazing!

Pillow Talk love Doris Day!

Singing In The Rain I saw this is at an old theater on Center Street in Logan, Utah, there was an intermission and everything...so cool!
