1.  These heels from Shabby Apple. Too bad I would need lessons to walk in them.
2. This DIY for mini hot air balloons! I'm dying to make these and create a mobile.
3. These hedgehog measuring cups from Anthropologie! 
4. This vintage circus outfit has left me with heart eyes. (Original source, anyone?)
5. This beautiful print of hot air balloons in Paris from Eye Poetry Photography's Etsy.
6. This lavender hair color! I need this!
7. I'm so inspired by this beautiful artwork on book pages.

10 Decisions for Parents of Newborns. I'm interested in natural pregnancy and childbirth so this article was right up my alley. (And, no, I'm not pregnant or plan to be anytime soon.)

An Open Letter to Ann Coulter. Hopefully will make you think twice before using the "r" word out of context...or at all.

How to check to see if a mirror is a two-way. The first time I tested this out, it was one!

 

This ridiculous video of a hip hop/Disney mash up. 

And finally, this. Enough said.

Caitlin in the Wild - A Photography Attempt

I've always been interested in photography. I saved up my pennies in high school and bought myself my first DSLR. But, I've never had any classes so I'm still very much in the dark when it comes to the actual mechanics of photography. I would love to eventually know more about what I'm doing but for now I really just like when my friends let me use them as guinea pigs. 

I'm still using that first DSLR and since a friend asked me to take photos of her and her son today, I asked Caitlin to let me practice a few things on her yesterday. What do you guys think? She's a great model.

Things I'm currently loving:

1. This Valentino dress. This is one of those loud pieces that I fall head over heels with that most women just don't understand. But, look at it! I faint.

2. This photo I took at a family gathering last weekend. I'm in love with it. There is something about brand new baby skin against hard working, older, or tattooed skin that just gets me.

3. This bracelet from Mickey's Girl. The one in the photo is unavailable, but there is a similar one with a wing charm that I like as well.

4. The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern. I've wanted to read this book since before it was released! I finally caved and ordered it. I'm only a few chapters in, but I love it already!

5. And, finally, Miley's new hair cut. Oh, the drama. The girl looks awesome. I'm not just saying that because my hair looked exactly like this six months ago, by the way.

Also,

• Taylor Swift's new single. I've listened to this song way too much already.
• This post on Vegan Housewives on eating Vegan at Disney.
• I watched Being Elmo on Netflix and already want to watch it over.
