10 things I’m loving right now.

1. This dress.

I saw it while strolling on Newbury Street this week and I have to have this for spring. You’ll find me wearing it on warm breezy Saturdays on my way to the Buttery in the South End. I’ll have on my brown boots and a top knot. YES.

2. This song.

I almost forgot about Ani until she popped onto my Pandora after work yesterday. LOVE.

3. This weather.

There might be a good amount of snow in the forecast, but for today, this is perfect, and I’ll gladly take it. But seriously, what’s up with winter this year?? (Goodness knows I’m not complaining, just curious.)

4. This recap.

Another great Boston Bloggers event! Loved seeing old friends and meeting new ones too. I am completely smitten with this blogging community and am feeling more connected and pleased with it with each passing week.

5. This book.

I just finished it and was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it. I’d heard it was good, but have been having trouble getting through “adult” books lately. This one held my attention well enough for me to finish it in under two weeks, and it was very interesting and unique.

6. This food.

Chocolate for breakfast? Don’t mind if I do.

7. This accessory.

I’m thinking about getting a new iphone case. I just feel like it’s time and I need something new. Society 6 has such nice ones to choose from, and you can really get one that fits your style. I like this one too. And this one. And this one. Okay, I’ll stop now.

8. This typeface.

It’s just so lovely and classic. I want these as fonts on my computer, but even more I want to be able to write like this. I would write a handwritten letter every single day if my print looked like this. My favorites? Kate and Sasha. But really, I love them all.

9. This memory.

Colleen was remembering this concert yesterday and her description of it sent chills up my spine. I know what it feels like to be at a concert like this. Where everyone is one with their love for the music. It’s some kind of magic in the air and there are very few experiences that can compare.  Dave Matthews does it for me. Does any particular artist do it for you?

10. This post.

I read this post when Elizabeth originally posted it almost a month ago, but it’s something I’ve been thinking about a lot. I’m guilty of the occasional gossip and jealous thought just as much as the next person, but they aren’t my best moments. In fact, they’re close to my worst. I really want to try to focus on the the peaceful things in life. Negative thoughts and comments only make you and everyone around you feel negative. And this life is short so why not make it sweet. Let’s just be nice to one another, okay? And above all, let’s be nice to ourselves.

Happy weekend, friends!!
