in full bloom

I don't know where I was when Spring decided to bloom around me, but winter has gone around these parts and I can't tell you how excited I am that it has. This season marks the end of my experience (my first Northwest experience, that is) with the four seasons, something that just doesn't exist back home in Hawaii.

I can finally say this; Spring and Autumn you are quite the looker!

I am completely head over in love with this season.
Dear Spring, you are wondrous with all your new buds and sweet scents. I feel so spoiled with you around!

lovely finds

There are so many beautifully designed stores around Seattle. It makes the browsing experience so much more fun and shopping hard to resist! I love drawing inspiration from these stores and most times I leave feeling a little guilty for not getting anything. Rather than giving my wallet a time out, I'd much prefer just living there. With such beautiful decor with every turn I often stay longer than needed. Oh wonderful shops, why can't I just keep you?
