Tomorrow I’m turning the big 2-8! I’m not sure why, but that number seems underwhelming to me. I do, however, think that it may be my best year yet. I’m a firm believer in the power of positive thinking! I also leave for the UK in two weeks from this Sunday, so that may have something to do with it ;)

I wanted to look back on the last year and share favorite highlights from each month being 27…

– July: joining my family on our annual trip to Carlsbad, California. It’s always such a fun, relaxing vacation! Love visiting the farmer’s market and seeing beautiful flowers and plants like these summer succulents. Also adore getting to see my college friend, Kat, whenever I come to San Diego!

– August: getting to see myself (and friend Liz!) in the September issue of Lucky Magazine! Such an exciting project to work on with Last Call.

– September: visiting Utah for the first time to see my favorite blogger babes, Rachel and Emily! We also celebrated Emily’s baby shower, which was very special and fun to be a part of.

– October: traveling to London with Krystal! This trip gave me the push and inspiration I needed to plan my upcoming London move and travel extravaganza.

– November: finally getting to see my mom’s new house and celebrating my grandmother’s Parisian-themed birthday! Also, Thanksgiving (duh).

– December: hosting a holiday cookie decorating party for my friends in Dallas and spending a few weeks at home in Austin for Christmas! Oh, and celebrating my sister’s 30th with these gorgeous gals.

– January: spending the first of the year in Utah again with these ladies. It was SO COLD, but so much fun! We even went ice skating. Also loved hopping on another plane to visit my other favorite blogger lady, Mara! Had a great time shopping and eating our way through Los Angeles, plus fit in a few meetings with great designers like Clare V. and Heidi Merrick!

– February: loved the snow days we got here in Dallas! So beautiful! Also sat front row at my favorite designer show: TIBI!

– March: celebrated another baby shower, this time for Rachel! Always love visiting Utah!

– April: hosted a fun styling event with Tibi at Stanley Korshak! Also went to my first Masters Golf Tournament to celebrate Ben’s last season!

– May: visiting New York in the spring to see my friend Patti, go to some meetings and enjoy the big apple! Bonus: I got to meet Delpozo Creative Director, Josep Font. Amazing! Also, Carmel for Memorial Day Weekend. Nothing better.

– June: visiting Los Angeles again for a little vacation and hanging out with friends. So relaxing!

Hoping that 28 is the best year yet! PS – I found this dress on MAJOR sale at Elements Boutique in Dallas. If you haven’t stopped by recently, you should. They have an amazing sale going on right now PLUS you can check out their new sub-store, EDIT by Elements. EDIT is an even more elevated and well-curated selection of designers like Suno, Mother of Pearl, MSGM, No. 21 and more!
