Well, HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I cannot believe it's 2013 already. 2012 just decided to end,

and I didn't even get a heads up. I guess that's what happens

when you get older, time literally flies.

It was a beautiful year for me though. 

Many wonderful memories were made, new friendships blossomed,

exhilirating experiences, lots of laughing and late nights...

Now to make sure 2013 is just as good, if not better...

Enough looking back, time to look forward. 3 more months and the 

sun will be warm again, my car won't have frost on it in the morning,

and I won't be able to see my breath anymore!

So, here's some "sunkissedness" to help get us through

the chilly days.

Wildfox Swim 2013. Oh so bad.

These photos are from Tallow's Summer 2013 line.
A beautiful & inspirational Australian women's surf brand. 

The roomie and I ringing in the New Years

I'll end things with this mesmerizing song by 

Ben Howard & Monica Heldal. Enjoy!

Sunkissed Sick Days: What's Making Me Feel Better

I HATE being sick. Well, who doesn't? 

But, I'm not one of those people

who really enjoys laying in bed all day, sipping soup and hot tea;

I just get bored too quickly.

So these last few days that I've been sick have been 

so annoying!

I know my body does need rest in

order to get better, but I might as well use my time wisely

and write a little something 

about what has been making me happy lately.

First off, this is the beautiful evening view I'm enjoying from 

my bedroom window.

As I've mentioned before, I love Swell! 

And since summer is coming to an end, 

they're having great sales! 

I figured I'd take advantage of the lower prices and 

make a big order; online shopping always makes me feel better...

I'm so happy with everything I got!

My new Nixon Forest Fedora! I have a big head,
so I was excited to find a fedora that actually fit!
Everyone's been calling me Indiana Jones...whatever..
I guess I just need to find a whip now.

Element Katie Tee, casual but still fun, and super
soft and comfy!

Stussy Sante Fe Bracelet. Its sold out on Swell.com
but you can buy it here.

My new Steve Madden fringe bag! Found this

beauty at TJ Maxx, for half of what it usually costs! Bam!

Neon & Fringe = perfect combo

Summer Heart: This album is amazing, the chill 

electro-dream-pop tunes and soothing vocals 

have become my end of summer go-to music.

I love scarves like this, because they can be used to
brighten up an outfit as an actual scarf, OR you can use
it as a headwrap, headband, or even a bikini cover-up.
I always love purple and orange together; and with the
tribal design going on, you can't lose - no 
matter how you wear it!

Luv AJ jewelry. This girl makes some awesome

accessories! 

oneteaspoon: I L.O.V.E. this Aussie clothing brand 
 because they have a lot of simple & bohemian products,
 but their pops of superstylish & chic, make for some outfits 
that are perfect for a fancy night out or a classy party.

Simply put, one teaspoon of them and you'll
be lookin real good.

Well, time for more vitamin C, hot tea, medicine, 

Grey's Anatomy reruns, and sleep...

Until next time, keep dreaming. xoxo

Sunkissed Playlist: Summer Tunes

Everyone needs a good summer playlist, or two, or three...

We all have those songs that remind us of that summer 2 years ago, 

that roadtrip to the beach,

roasting marshmallows by the bonfire, 

dirty camping feet,

 dancing by the pool,

barbecuing yummy summer meals,

that new bikini we wanted to wear everyday,

cruising around town on your bike 

or longboard,

the smell of tanning lotion,

eating fresh fruit all day,

or just laying under the sun snoozing.

So, I wanted to share some tunes that I've been digging lately. 

Some old, some new,

some for dancin' it out with your friends, 

some for just relaxing,

but mostly for enjoying the fact that 

summer's here to stay for a while again.

1. Teenage Crime - Adrian Lux

2. Strange Attractor - Animal Kingdom

3. Disparate Youth - Santigold

4. Wandering Star - Poliça, Mike Noyce

5. Can't Sleep - Adrian Lux

6. Slicin' Sand - Elvis Presley

7. Get Some (Remix by Beck) - Lykke Li

8. We Found Each Other in the Dark - City and Colour

9. Bangarang (feat. Sirah) - Skrillex

10. Beaches in Mind - The Beach Boys

11. I'm on a Roll (feat. New Boyz and Rock Mafia) - Stefano

12. National Anthem - Lana Del Rey

13. Banjo - Rascal Flatts 

14. Amongster - Poliça

15. Freak Like Me - Santigold

16. Little Marriage - Lia Ices

Now go make some more summer time memories!

Until next time, keep dreaming. xoxo

Sunkissed Dreaming

Its gonna be a warm weekend!  

Happy Friday and here's to spending it by the pool, relaxing, 

and dreaming of a fun summer to come...

Start here.

Put on some Fleet Foxes and take a drive.

Play in the sand.

Sit back and just enjoy the view.

Bask in the majesty of the sea.

May not be able to do this, or maybe you can...

a girl can dream...

"Clouds come floating into my life,

no longer to bring rain or usher storm,

but to add color to my sunset sky."

Until next time, keep dreaming. xoxo
