hi there!
we're two twentysomethings trying to navigate post-college / pretending-to-be-an-adult life in a small town and look somewhat fashionable in the process. click here to learn more!

We convinced Megan to join us for another guest post a couple of weeks ago after dinner one night :) Loooove these colors in her outfit - they’re a perfect choice for transitioning to warmer weather, especially her pants… such a pretty shade of turquoise! Makes me think of summertime and the beach… but I guess I better not get too far ahead of myself :D

berry cute

Meg graciously volunteered [or was eventually convinced into, haha] doing a guest post when we all went for one of our more or less weekly Mexican nights a couple of weeks ago. She’s been substitute teaching for a while now, and this is one of her always nicely put together [and comfy to boot!] outfits that would work well for hanging out with students all day :D This pretty pink of the cardigan pops against the greys and blacks, and is a really nice color on her too!

third time’s a charm

I talked Megan into doing another guest post because her new shorts and shirt are so cute and summery! Megan’s been working at a summer camp in town for the past two weeks so I got to see her for dinner and the baseball game the other night. I love the graphic pattern of her shirt and the orange looks so nice against her tan skin!

school’s out

I invited (read coerced) Megan to do another guest post when I had dinner with her the other night. The lucky girl is now at the beach for her spring break. If you were wondering what teachers wear in their time off, here’s an inside look: cute thrifted dress, cross body purse loaded with a kindle (yeah Hunger Games!), and Toms. It’s no wonder her students love her :)

Teacher’s Pet

A very special guest post from our good friend, Megan! Megan is always, always, always stylish and cute, even though her general response to compliments is “This old thing?” or “Oh, girl I just threw these pants on!” Megan is student teaching this semester (so will soon be the world’s sweetest elementary school teacher!). Running around after 8 year olds all day requires you to look both professional yet comfortable. Megan pulls it off perfectly (of course!).

bff time

This weekend, Cait & I went to Raleigh to get together with our besties Lucy and Megan. Beforehand, we had a fun joint photo shoot. It was great to catch up and spend some quality time together, because that doesn’t happen enough these days. And Lucy agreed to let us take pictures for a guest post so get excited! Coming very soon!

going home

Reunions are always awesome, especially when they include friends you’ve had for 10+ years who you don’t get to see nearly often enough. All four of us went to school together beginning in sixth grade and more or less went to college together too as much as we saw each other :]

We usually plan an epic Blue Ridge Parkway trip once a year in the summer, but this year we decided to mix it up a bit so we could include the best all-you-can-eat homestyle cookin’ this side of your grandma’s kitchen: The Homeplace in Catawba, VA. If you’ve never heard of it/been there, I feel sorry for you and you should remedy that as soon as humanly possible - it is divine [and I never use that word in any kind of seriousness.. ha].

This is the kind of place where you don’t eat at all prior to going there, and you can’t eat until two days later; where gluttony is acceptable, even encouraged: when you’ve got all that fried chicken and homemade biscuits and mashed potatoes & gravy and pinto beans etc staring you in the face, you don’t ask questions - you just shovel it in. And you love every second of it.

Not to mention, the scenery is absolutely gorgeous, especially now that the leaves are changing! Perfect for tons of gratuitous photos :D
