Hi friends! Thanks for stopping by—I’m so glad you’re here! 😁
Since I focused on flowers last Friday, let’s see what else has brought the sparkle over the past two weeks!

This sweet gift arrived from Kristin’s sister and mom! How adorable! I love that it’s from Claire’s! 😂 I may not be their target demographic, but I am certainly their target aesthetic. Kristin’s sister sent me a cute card too! 😭💖
Last Friday was sunny and lovely, and I managed to get out and break up the work day, which never happens! I stopped by Plato’s Closet and picked up my first thrifted items since possibly before covid?? 😮
I also found this sweatshirt at Target over the weekend. (I’m sorry I ever blasphemed the small Target because it’s been crushing it lately!) I am in love with this mauvey-brown color in all the things. For size reference, this is an XXL (also the only size they had in this color). I have def needed the ✨cozy vibes✨ this week.
For a while now, I’ve been pulling a card from my Zelda tarot deck every month, kind of like an oracle card. What does the universe have to tell me? etc. For May, I got a card I’ve never pulled before—the Wheel of Fortune.
It is SO spot-on for what’s been coming up for me lately—just look at what quote was in the write-up!!
Yes, my “Be the pretty inspirational quote you wish to see in the world” quote! So perfect!
Annnnd “being the pretty inspirational quote” has definitely continued over the past two weeks! I have needed a lot of reminders in my face during stormy emotional moments, so for a bit there, I was making pretty phone wallpapers in Canva like daily. (Is this what a coping skill feels like?! Do I need a Canva intervention OR is it healing me?? 😂)
I’ve also made a gorgeous (if I do say so myself) wallpaper that pleases me immensely every time I open my laptop. Who knew this creative outlet was something I needed in my life? My college roommate was a graphic design major, and I guess some of her interest rubbed off on me! 😁
If you are also going through stormy emotional moments right now, I’m sorry—it sucks. It is so so exhausting and terrifying. But I am trying to give myself some love and gentleness, and I am sending that your way too. 💜💜
What put the sparkle in your week? ✨
Happy Friday! xoxo
