February is here and love is in the air. Well, love is always in the air around these parts, but around this time of year there seems to be in an abundance of love everywhere I go. Valentines day is is in less than two weeks and I’m honestly so excited. I love a holiday that celebrates love, and I also love any excuse to go on a fun date with Scott and give pretty cards that tell people how much I love them.

Sunnies: Ray Bans

Knit sweater: Rubbish

Grey cardigan: Target, maybe?

LOVE t-shirt: c/o Dressing On The Side

pants: Levi’s

Socks: Target

Boots: Steve Madden

The sweet folks at Dressing On The Side sent me this pretty “LOVE” shirt. I just adore the cupcake, and how the whole design looks like it was sketched out with pencil. The gals over at DOTS were extra sweet during our numerous conversations, and I was extremely happy to receive my shirt so quickly. These ladies are certainly on top of things! Oh, and they are also an Arizona based company, which makes them extra near and dear to my heart. I love Arizona, and I love to support people and companies from my home state.

Lately the temperatures in Phoenix have been frigid. Yesterday it was 38 degrees with a major windchill during the afternoon, and 48 degrees with an even greater windchill during the early hours of the evening. I know we are not receiving some of the harsh, snowy weather that other states and areas are, but it certainly has been extra cold in Phoenix.

This week has been pretty hectic. Lots of homework needing to be done, many cups of coffee (which resulting in some much unneeded anxiety), planning outfits and putting finishing touches on details for a long awaited photoshoot that I am doing this Friday (more to come on that later), and receiving some amazing news that just warmed my whole heart.

This weekend is going to be a great one. I am attending my cousins bridal shower and I just can’t wait. If you have any suggestions on funs things to do for the bride I would greatly appreciate them. I’m pretty new to the wedding scene (although almost everyone I graduated high school with is married now), and I would love to hear suggestions on how to make her special party the absolute best!
