Janis in Winter Whites

Forever 21 Sweater, Thrifted Dress (worn as a skirt, similar), Free People Coat, Rag & Bone Booties, Cleobella Fringe Bag, Ray-Ban Sunnies 

Happy New Year! I hope your year is going well so far. Mine has gotten off to an awesome start. And by awesome start, I mean we went away for the weekend on a little staycation in Gruene, Texas, about an hour south of Austin. I'll be posting later this week about our stay and things to do in the area so stay tuned for that. I really like the idea of starting the new year with a vacation. Taking time to fully indulge yourself and recharge before the first full week of the new year begins and shit gets real, ya know? Plus I kinda felt like a bit of a rock star in this outfit. I had a friend recently tell me that my style reminds him of Janis Joplin. Huge compliment, of course. I was definitely channeling Janis in some whimsical white, a fur-collared coat and fringe bag. Let's rock on 2015!

Weekend Review: Lakeway

As I mentioned Friday I went out to Lakeway Resort and Spa for a work event this weekend. Let's just say I'm a little spoiled at my job! We had a great time full of catching up, laying by the pool, great dinners, and staying out dancing until all hours of the night. Plus my first time at The Salt Lick which I'd been wanting to go to for so long!

Friday was gloomy and rainy, but Saturday was perfect. Like I didn't even have to get in the pool it felt so nice outside. Rare occasion for September's in Texas. I took full advantage and just sat on my lounge chair enjoying the out of character, but very welcome "fall" weather. Lakeway Resort is wonderful too. If you live near Austin and are looking for a sort of weekend staycation, you should definitely check it out. Beautiful place. Hope your weekend was great and you had some good weather as well :)

Marfa Memories

 My friends and I dubbed our group the Marfackers that weekend. We're kinda weird.

We called this the guac bowl.

 I will own an outdoor shower one day because of my experience with this one. Amazing.

Planet Marfa, the coolest bar EVER. There was a teepee + a pimped out school bus in the courtyard.

It's Friday yay! And this weekend is the first in a long while that I have not one plan. So I think I'm gonna lounge by the pool, couch surf, catch up with some friends and we'll probably end up going out and having some drinks downtown. You all know I love me some dranks.

All that relaxing aside, on a weekend like this where the possibilities are endless, I find myself thinking of Marfa. I'd love to head out west this weekend and stay in my little pink airstream again. Such a magical place. But, for now I'll just have to reminisce by looking at all these pretty photos we took around the town. I guess spending the weekend chillin' in Austin isn't so bad, though... ;)
