Owen and I watched the sunset down by the freezing cold lake last night. Lake Champlain really does get the most beautiful sunsets over the Adirondacks, with lots of oranges and reds. Owen did a great job of capturing the colors in the ice as the sun was going down. Cold experience, but worth it : )

This and That : A Sunny Walk by Lake Champlain
My sister Kelly and I took a walk down to Lake Champlain today to take a break from a busy afternoon. It was sunny and warm, and the ice that had spread across the lake looked beautiful as it started to melt. Sitting with the sun on my face and just looking out across the lake always relaxes me when I get a little too caught up in the craziness of every day life, ya know? Hope you're having a great week!
Wore : Running Gear
As I had mentioned before in a previous post, I signed up for a half marathon that will be happening in April. A few friends and my sister are doing it with me, so it should be a great time. I have been (mostly) training on schedule, which is the first time I've been running regularly since college (yikes!). It really has been great to feel myself slowly getting back into shape, and to see the extra energy it provides me. As silly as it may seem, whenever I am wearing cute running gear, it gives me a little bit of extra motivation to get moving. So I figured I'd put together a little round-up of cute outfit ideas to keep that motivation flowing ; )

Shop Talk : Vintage Wedding Dresses
This week OldSchoolSwank Vintage will be debuting a new vintage wedding dress collection, which I am so excited to share with you. I've had a few wedding dresses in the shop previously, but will be adding many more wedding pieces (dresses, shawls, accessories, bridesmaid attire, etc.) from now on. I myself wore a vintage wedding dress that my mom hemmed shorter for me on my wedding day for the reception, and I just loved how special it felt. Most vintage wedding dresses are made with such care, with tons of small beautiful details, and really can add a romantic feeling to your special day. Stay tuned this week for the new additions to the shop!
Below is some fun vintage wedding dress inspiration. It is sunny and warm(ish) in Vermont today, so I am headed out to get some vitamin D. Hope you all had a great weekend and can do the same!
