Flower Girl

Flower Girl

We officially moved into our new home and I couldn’t be more in love with our new house and neighborhood! Even though things have been rather hectic, my assistant Allison and I, still managed to explore. We went to a nearby forest preserve to shoot and I’m absolutely smitten how these pictures turned out!

Forest Preserves are perfect backdrops for a photo shoot. I was sitting in the peaceful wildflower meadow and I couldn’t have been more in awe. It seems the older I get the more I’m drawn to nature vs the city. It’s funny because I always considered myself a city girl—but who can really resist a wildflower meadow?! So, for today’s post I’m getting my inner flower girl on—taking one step at a step. Learning to worry less and simply live in the moment.

As always, thanks so much for stopping & have a fabulous Monday!

PS: We are currently designing the inside of our home—I cannot wait to show you some progress!

XOXO

    I never thought, when I was in my 20 s, that I would ever live in a village! I am living there for over 20 years now! Haha, people change right. Can’t wait to see some pictures of your new home!

    Great pictures as usual, dear V., and you look really gorgeous! I loved the place, and yes, I agree with you – I am a very urban person, but lately (or kind of 2 years ago), I started loving places with green:) So nice that you moved and you are loving the new house and neighborhood, and I am also eager to see the progress; I know it will be all of excellent taste! You always have exquisite taste for everything! Hope you are having a great time with the boys, dear V., and enjoying a nice week! Hugs and kisses!

    Love this summery mood in the pictures! <3 I also found myself loving to be in nature more and more, whereas I have always thought I preferred urban settings… becoming an adult is weird haha! 🙂 Thanks for sharing this cute look!
