latest obsession : stationary

we all have something that we are obsessed with.

something that even though we might have tons of, we buy more anyway because we are just too in love with it.

for me it's stripped tee shirts and stationary.

i can't even walk down the stationary aisle at target for fear that i might blow my life savings.

but that doesn't mean i can't browse etsy for stationary. 

that being said, i recently stumbled across naomi lynn's etsy shop.

she was sweet enough to send me two sets of stationary, and let me tell you, they are darling! 

not only are the colors super vibrant, but they are also very nice quality. 

i also love how the open portrait style, instead of landscape - how original!

the quality is great, the colors are great, and the price is great.

i mean what else could a girl ask for when it comes to stationary?    

the look of these cards a very professional, while still being cute.

 i can't wait to send thank you notes or even just hello notes to show off my new cards! 

go check out naomi's shop! 

thanks for reading!

lotsa lobsta

it seems lately that every where i turn i see lobsters. whether it be on a t-shirt or on a bracelet, they are every where. now don't get me wrong, i'm definitely not complaining. in fact, i'm kind of in love with this lobster trend. i think it is the epitome of preppy and reminds me of everything nantucket (although i've never been ha!). i think lobsters are just super cute, but it a touch punk kind of way. i might now be making any sense, but just hear me out. one of the main reasons i like them is because they are bright red, which makes them classy just like red nail polish. and another reason i like them is because they taste good, my mouth is literally watering while i type this...

now that we've come to the conclusion that i'm a little on the crazy side, here are a few of my latest lobster finds that i'm loving

 this lobster bracelet from j.crew is actually from the boy's section, but who cares, especially since it's only $10.50. a j.crew steal in my book. and it comes in two other colors, but like i said before red is classy.

toms are one of the most comfortable shoes around, and you're also helping people in need when you buy then which is pretty much the greatest combination. so when i found these to-die-for toms, i knew i had to show y'all!

i am obsessed with stationary lately, and these definitely fit in with my "buds". taste "buds" and "bud"get.

 that was a corny joke and i'm aware of it. 

moving on..

i only have one lobster thing in my closet right now, and it is a shirt from the j.crew factory store that i got over spring break. unfortunately i can't find it on the website, and i got it while on a road trip so i'm not sure if it's even still in stores but it is super cute even though the lobster is orange and not red;) 

and unfortunately, the shirt's in the dirty clothes right now so i'll have to add a picture in a little bit later, but be sure to check back! 

thanks for reading! 

are you liking the lobster trend?

snail mail

if y'all read my mail haul, then you know that i am in love with snail mail! lately i have been fantasizing over stationary, and what exactly i would pick out. i do have some stationary left over from when i was a little kid and they aren't too "dated", but hey who doesn't love some new stationary?! paper source has a store where i live, and honestly i could spend hours beyond hours looking at everything. not only do they have stationary, but they also have gag gifts, wrapping paper, pens, and so much more!! 

**if you were wondering, i'm not being sponsored. i just love me some stationary;)** 

here are some of my top picks from their website! some of them don't have a monogram on them, but i would definitely ask them if it was possible, or buy a stamp kit that they sell!

obviously they have a wide variety of cards and stationary, and it was very difficult for me to narrow it down! i didn't look at every single card, but these were my favorites from what i saw! all i need to do now is save my money up so i can buy some new stationary! 

thanks so much for reading!
