Mad Men returns for it's 4th season on July 25th!
I was so happy to hear this news! Mad Men is hands down one of my favorite tv shows. From the beautiful cinematography to the breath-taking costumes and sets, this show embodies the glam and drama of the 60's.
If you haven't seen the past seasons, you're seriously missing out. I highly recommend that you rent the dvds and get caught up before this new season starts!
Saturday night we went to a going away party for some friends. It'll be sad to see these two go, but they're not moving that far away, so I think keeping in touch will be pretty easy.
The party was so much fun! We all started out at a local Mexican restaurant, where Ryan ordered this vegetarian burrito. Wow, was he shocked at the size!

I'm really loving the Oxford trend right now. I sadly don't have a pair yet myself, but hopefully that'll change soon!
These are perfect for everyday! I can just picture these with shorts and a tunic top...
Bakers Shoes - $49.99 (also in black)
Picture with a cool grahpic t-shirt, cuffed destroyed jeans, and maybe a little vintage jacket...

It's like an oxford mixed with a ballet flat! And it has a wedge! It's like the shoe gods designed it just got me...
Bakers Shoes - $39.99 (also in gray and black)
Um, yeah... These are awesome! I would totally wear these on a night out...
So which one is your favorite?? I think I'm kinda leaning towards the first pair. They're basic, classic and would go with everything!
Well, if you check out Urban Outfitters sale... You can get all sorts of wonderful things! I already made my order, cause things are going fast. In fact, one thing I wanted was already OOS by the time I went to check out :(
They've got everything from sunglasses, to tops, to a hedgehog nail brush!
Oh, and if you order, don't forget to use Ebates! And there's a 10% off code (UOUOUO) going around so add that on there too!
Now I'm waiting, rather impatiently for my order... Once it comes I promise lots of pictures!
...then life would be perfect! ♥ ♥
First thing on the agenda today, hitting up our favorite flea markets! I probably should have taken pictures there... But they were packed and I didn't want to risk knocking anything over with my camera. But I ended up finding two adorable little Pyrex cups at a steal of a price - Only $1.40 for both!! And they go perfectly with my little Pyrex refrigerator dish, which I use as a k-cup holder!
Before we knew it, it was time for lunch. For lunch we hit up a great little local spot, The Purple Burrito. It's such a great little place. I wish I'd gotten a picture of the outside, but I didn't... The building is painted bright purple and inside all the tables are made out of raw cheap particle board and metal. Sounds odd I know, but it works and is very charming!
Oh and the food... It's amazing California style Mexican food. And they've got some great vegetarian options. I always get the vegetarian burrito, which is stuffed full with green peppers, pico de gallo, cheese, guacamole, sauteed onions, sour cream, rice and beans... Oh, and it comes with a side of chips and your choice of salsa from their salsa bar :) I promise this picture doesn't exaggerate... It really is so huge it can't fit on the plate!
After this we headed over to Jordon Valley park, which is a favorite of ours. Set right by the heart of our downtown :)
We found a hilltop and claimed it as ours...
From our hill we had quite the view! In front of us was the rest of the park...
To the left overlooked the part that branches back to downtown...
And behind us was the ballpark...
I took a few pictures of Ryan...
And he took a few of me...
I love this park! It has everything...
From beautiful flowers...
To dinosaurs...
Oh, and on the way home we stopped at local wonder, Andy's!
We split a peanut butter cup sundae! And oh my... It was blissful! Just like our day ♥
If you haven't yet listened to the latest album by She & Him, you are missing out! First of all, I would like to say that they were brilliant to release this just in time for Spring and Summer, as the music just calls for lazy summer days in the park. I can just picture how magical it would be to listen to on a picnic, during a breezy Spring day!
I love the soft folksy sound that this duo infuses into their songs. In my mind, they can do no wrong.
If you haven't yet tried their music, I encourage you to give it a go! Here's a little taste for your music pleasure :)
