Today has taken a turn different than I expected b/c I woke up this morning a 6 am with a migraine.  I took some medicine and slathered my head with peppermint oil and luckily fell back asleep for 2 hours... All day though it is just lingering... Ive taken and bath and tried to take it really easy today.  I had big plans on releasing a new lookbook on the boho blog today, but I just can't sit in front of the computer screen for as long as it will take to get it up.  I had this post almost done last night, so I'm staying on long enough to get it out...

So, since I have nothing super fun to talk about today, let me leave you with a really cute blog post with Katie from Skunkboy wearing our Dylan tee.  And if you head on over to Skyline Fever's shop, you may notice a few things back up.  :)

Hopefully I'll be back in the swing of things tomorrow.  Ive seriously been on so much fire lately I have barely stopped at all, and so much of it has been computer work, so I know this is why my head hurts today.  My body literally forces me to slow down when I won't do it myself...

ALTERNATIVE APPAREL

alternative apparel

The folks at Alternative Apparel just did a whole new site revamp and are celebrating with a Sign up & Save 25% Off your purchase deal.  I'm a huge fan of their simplicity & style.  We have used several of their products in our Skyline Fever line, and I personally work out in their sports bra and shorts a few times a week.  I love how they have incorporated beautiful patterns in their line as well as just basic solids. 

Their new site layout is pretty cool.  They have given several different options on how to shop, including by fabric.  So if you just want to browse their eco-friendly line, its super easy to do so now.

They are also offering 30% off all sale items when you use the code SUMMER30 at checkout.  (offer expires 7/28)

THE BOHEMIAN COLLECTIVE

Summer Romance Lookbook by The Bohemian Collective

Yesterday a new lookbook went live over on The Bohemian Collective!  It is the last one in the 5 part series of the Summer Romance theme.  I seriously had so much fun creating this entire collection.  I kind of never want it to end...  But I'm equally excited to finally start sharing the Americana themed lookbooks Ive also been working on, so stay tuned for those very very soon!

So many exciting things are happening over on the boho blog.  We also just created our own instagram account.  I decided it was time to finally separate it from my personal account.  So follow us now at @bohemiancollective for blog and lookbook updates.

PIECES OF HOME // MOMENTS

When life gets busy, I try to never forget to capture all the little moments in between.  One thing I do love about the quick technology of smart phones, it takes about 5 seconds to whip it out and snap a photo of something along the way throughout your day.  I probably wouldn't capture any of these random moments in my day if I had to keep my big heavy camera with me at all times.  By the time I would go grab my camera and get it all set up, the moment would be over.  So grateful for the easy access to capture our lives these days.

Little moments like seeing my kitty sleeping on a seashell, or Violet's paws adorably crossed while she naps on the bed, or my sweet deer friends faces when I feed them... these simple things make my day.  Over all of the things I 'accomplish' with my business or the million other things that keep me busy, these moment are what make my heart tick. 

I love being able to look back through my instagram feed and remember each day.  Even if it was just an image of what I wore that day, or like the image above of myself in the early morning with coffee and a nose strip still on my face... I remember my moment during that day.  I remember sitting there listening to the birds, looking at my mom's angel with a full heart, laughing at the cute things my kitty and pup did.  I'm a visual person, and have the memory of a fly, so without photos, many things would be lost to me.  Pictures bring me back to moments and memories, and that is what I hold sacred about them. 

I hope I never forget to take photos of the simplest things.  A visual diary of life.  LIFE. xo.
