I love wearing hats cause hats have different personalities. You can instantly be cheeky, hippie, sailor or beachy. hats are awesome okay. This is my favorite hat.

1. Pinterest. I’m going pin crazy. its so much fun instantly archiving images until I need them. It saves me and my desktop a lot of irritation. yes I think my desktop gets irritated for being so over populated.

2. Music: Beach house, the band. I can’t stop listening to  ’Zebra’ & the new KOL is niiiiiiice!

3. Navy – i’m sure its pretty obvious but i’m very much in a nautical phase of my life.

4. Wedding blogs – there are really too many beautiful things out there! : ) but i’m having fun starting to make some of the cool ideas and create some of my own!

5. SUMMER. it is too nice. shorts. skirts. legs. tan. ice cream. swimming. braais.
