April 2017 Favorites


Happy Monday! I’m starting this week off with my all time favorites for April this month. Things on my mind, things I love around my beautiful city and amazing videos I want to share. I want to start doing these once a month to see if anyone else has similar interests! I’m starting off with my favorite Downtown Seattle Coffee Shop.
Favorite Coffee: Almond Milk Chai Latte from Cherry Street Coffee

The people who work at Cherry Street are amazing. They make a damn good cup of coffee but they also hire the most incredibly friendly people who genuinely want to get to know you and share your day. The music is always different, depending on who is working and who’s pandora station is plugged in. I highly recommend, if you want a quality cup of joe and a whole-hearted smile.

Favorite Dress: Ted Baker Samm Floral Fit & Flare Dress

Gorgeous, as always, by Ted Baker. Loving the tiny birds, graphic floral print and pink belt. The perfect spring dress to move right into summer. I’m dying over the cut of the top and the length of the skirt. It’s perfect for us petite gals.

Favorite Book: Garden Spells

I’ve said this once before and I’ll say it again, Garden Spells is one of my all time favorite books and it’s about that time of year when I re-read it. I love books where the characters become your friends and you miss them. If you are looking for a little adventure through with small town life with lovely sparks of magic brought out by food, this is the book for you. Enjoy and tell me your thoughts!

Favorite Coaster: Anthropologie Geode Coaster

Something a lot of people don’t know about me: I have an undying love of coasters. Girllllll … I effin’ LOVE coasters, OMG!!

When the modpodged coaster at my desk was looking rough, I walked over to Anthropologie and struck gold with this gem (literally) of a Geode Coaster. Not a single one of the piles had a coaster that looked like the next so mine is genuinely unique (pictures to come!). This one is the photo from the website because I want you to see the comparison in the future. In short, I’m obsessed and I kind of want about 3 more.

Favorite Video: Girl Friend Getaway Part 1Girl Friend Getaway Part 1 featuring Six Twenty Seven Ishea Brown

One of my great friends, Ishea, was able to participate in an amazing excursion to Whidbey Island, WA. The event was sponsored by Buick and Seattle Refined. Here’s her post. She’s having a blast! It was such a joy to be able to watch her be 100% herself with her friend Natalie. Love girls trips, love this!
