AUGUST FAVOURITES

I'm in denial.

Summer can't be over...can it?

And I've been trying.

I've had three (YES, THREE) pumpkin spice lattes so far.

I even went into Artizia and stroked their cashmere sweaters.

No dice, friends. Summer is still on my heart.

August is over and September is here. I just have to accept it.

But oh, how August was a gooder.

I went away a bunch, had my anniversary and birthday AND RACHEL AND JASON GOT ENGAGED!!!!!!! (Yes, I will be blogging every single detail of their wedding, so get pumped!!)

Throughout the mayhem of August, I did manage to blog on a small scale...(Hopefully Fall will be more regular!) 

Here were your favourite posts....

1. ON BIKINI BRIDGES & KICKING SELF LOATHING TO THE CURB

In Bikini Bridges & Kicking Self Loathing to the Curb I did something really scary. I opened up and told you all about my struggle with self loathing. And you guys were SO SUPPORTIVE. It was my most popular post EVER. Thank you for all your kind comments, messages and blog link ups. It made me cry...and realize how important it is to be vulnerable.

 

2. WARDROBE // 6

Wardrobe // 6 was your second favourite post. Mountain top fashion with my mountain top love.

 

3. PARKSVILLE

I went to Parksville with my besties and had way too much fun. We ate a lot of food, watched a lot of Veronica Mars and laughed A LOT.

 

4. TWO YEARS

James & I celebrated two years of marriage on August 24th. I got all sappy and showed you way too many wedding pictures.

5. WHISTLER FAMILY VAYCAY

I had the pleasure of going to Whistler with James' famjam. It was my first time to Whistler and it won't be my last. Stunning mountaintop adventures and great family times.

Well that was August round here. Hope you all had THE BEST SUMMER ever.
