finally...

Finally, I can catch my breath.

Dearest friends, my blog posts are way overdue - great apologies for not writing, but in my defense, I'd rather not post than give you crap. I mean... LBR, folks... the worst thing a blogger could give you is a pointless post.

Anywho.. Today marks two months since UW commencement.. I can't believe that time has flown by so quickly. Also now thinking back, I realized that I have never shared pictures from the photo shoot with you. A dear sister, Kelley who is two years younger took photos of me and fellow graduating sisters before Commencement. It was beautiful, sunny day (rare in Seattle, especially during the first week of June). I love love love these photos. Can't believe it's all done.

Hope you enjoy!

Looks like we haven't changed a bit since freshmen year...

Scarves are the perfect year-round accessory - especially in the Pacific Northwest, where there's always a slight chance of brisk winds on a sunny day. What makes this scarf a must-have for your closet? It's more than just style... it's giving hope to those who need it.

eturnalife is a brand of scarves created by four University of Washington students with the goal of raising awareness and support for charitable causes. All proceeds go directly to the organization. For only $28, you'll be sportin' a new soft, stylish scarf and helping a good cause. #winning
