Boyfriend jeans: Gap. Polka dot blouse: Dior. Sweater/scarf: Old Navy. Jacket: The Loft. Tights: Ross. Shoes: Target. |
I’m so glad I figured out to start wearing tights under my boyfriend jeans. I genuinely thought I wouldn’t be able to wear these pants until April, which would be a travesty because these babies are a new favorite.
Look how resourceful I am. Go me.
So there’s a place in downtown Issaquah with a large blue door to nowhere.
It was a gift from Issaquah’s sister city, which is some name I can’t remember in Morocco.
Just because they went with such a fantastic color blue and the door is so big and beautiful, I decided Moroccans are pretty much the bomb.
Plus the hair oil is awesome.
That’s all it takes to be cool in my book, a nice color door and good hair oil.
It’s such a lovely bright spot right in the middle Issaquah; in the middle of a gray, dreary, rainy day it just filled me with cheerful thoughts.
I wonder if whoever built it was intending that reaction.
Something tells me maybe they were.
It made me wonder a little about the mark I’m leaving on the world. I hope it’s a cheerful one. One that makes life a little more beautiful, a little brighter.
If for no other reason than to brighten the scenery.
Like that door to nowhere.

necessity is the mother of invention!
love the shirt, sweater combo! So lovely.
Love your outfit and especially loved your interview! You are an inspiration!
You bring a bit of cheer to me. I’ve only discovered your blog recently but I really like your writing style and I always enjoy seeing your new outfits. Thanks for sharing.
I love the thought of the seattle area, but get depressed here in Utah when we have too many gloomy days in a row. How do you cope? Especially having just lived in sunny Az?

So cute! I love the polka dots!!!
i adore this outfit! and that door is gorgeous – where is it located in town?
it’s just off front street in front of the Police department building. ;-)
I need that door for my very own front door. Today! What a great find! And you look fabulous. Polka dots are so happy :)
they are happy aren’t they!
The whole outfit works. really cool, love your blog. Funny how you are all bundled up and here we are in Miami wearing tank tops in the dead of winter. http://www.hotcelebration.com
Nice interview. Honestly, I was a little jarred to learn you aren’t the absolutely perfect person you seemed to be, but I guess that is ok. ;) I really like what you said about your husband. I love when people value and appreciate those who are as truly good as he.
I’m nowhere near perfect, I assure you. ;-) And I do truly adore Mr. he’s even better than I make him sound…
I like wearing my boyfriend jeans with heeled boots until the rain stops raining. Cute outfit.
that is brilliant… I’m going to have to try that!
The blue polka dots are so pretty with the green. :) Fantastic door, too! I think every city needs a door to nowhere. :)
