I’ve been thinking a lot about perspective lately… and I think, as much as we sometimes forget that life isn’t happening to us and that we aren’t victims of life, but instead we are creating our life minute by minute, day by day, year by year… our perspective truly defines how we interpret our lives …
You Kept Me Warm With All Your Sugarcoats
What I’m Wearing… * V Secret Fold-over Black yoga leggings – still my all-time favorite leggings hands down. * Black turtleneck sweater * Light brown coat from Pendleton, which I’ve worn almost every time I’ve gotten actual-dressed (like not in sweats – and actually even sometimes in sweats!) and left the house this winter * …
I’ve Tried to Wash You Away, But You Just Won’t Leave
What I’m Wearing… * Vintage cashmere mock turtleneck sweater (I’ve had for years) I think it’s D&G actually 🤔 * Two-tone denim Lee Jeans… Lee sent me these a few years ago (these are a similar and more flattering pair maybe, but also more pricey) and I’m just wearing them for the first time now. …
Cover Me in Sunshine… Shower Me with Good Times
What I’m Wearing… * Vintage pink and white striped 3/4″ sleeve t-shirt was my mom’s from the late 70s/early 80s… I’m not sure I’ve ever worn it on the blog actually, which is surprising… I asked my mom if she had a photo of herself wearing it but couldn’t find one… only found one of …
Surviving the Lake Arrowhead Blizzard Alone // The Beginning
It’s clear to me now that I SEVERELY underestimated the winter storm everyone was going on and on about… you know, the one I poked fun at in my last post, Memories Made in the Coldest Winter, which was exactly 3 weeks ago and the beginning of the storm… and now that title takes on …
Memories Made in the Coldest Winter
What I’m Wearing… * Lee Vintage Modern Union-Alls in Ecru… You know I love my coveralls and they are kind of perfect in the snow – I size up to a medium in these so they fit a little looser/baggier… Linked in the shopping widget below! They also have a new version with a cropped …
Shopping on the Mountain // Hilltop Haus
At the beginning of last month (October), after stopping at the farmer’s market in Twin Peaks, Michelle and I took a little drive to Running Springs to check out a new little shop that just opened up called Hilltop Haus and it did not disappoint! I don’t go to Running Springs often, but it’s another …

Life Update // New Beginnings and Fresh Starts… I moved
Hi Lovecats and Happy November! I’ve got a little life update I’ve been wanting to share with you for the past few weeks but haven’t been able to because my site has been basically broken, but it also seems fitting that I share now, at the beginning of the month, so here goes… I moved. …
Sunday House Crush // Little Apple A-Frame Mountain Cabin
As a Lake Arrowhead local and business owner (Dogwood Tavern in Blue Jay and Dogwood Dockside at the Marina) I follow as many (if not all) local businesses on the mountain and their Instagram accounts, including the Airbnb’s, and while there are so many truly adorable and perfectly remodeled rental cabins up here, the Little …
And I’m On that New Vibration
All the sundresses and rompers before summer ends! What I’m Wearing… * Cut out floral romper from Hollister (Chad came home with 4 of these cute rompers for me just before summer, which was super thoughtful… but when I first tried them on, I felt like they were a little young for this old lady …
And if the Wind is Right you Can Find the Joy Of Innocence again

Dogwood Dockside Bar & Grill / Our New Lake Arrowhead Venture
It came to us almost by magic, really, like the best things often do… Months ago I received a quiet little text from a good friend about a possible vacancy and opportunity and after much hesitation (on my part) and negotiation that seemingly, spontaneously spawned into a whirlwind of cleaning and readying to open after …
I’m Gonna Take You on a Trip So far From Here
What I’m Wearing… * Love of My Life midi dress from Free People… also seen here and here because, like my Lee coveralls, it’s a go-to as soon as the weather is warm enough… AND I’M SO GRATEFUL FOR THE WARM WEATHER LATELY! They don’t have this color anymore but I’ve linked all the available …
