Out of Words

The weekend was a restorative time. I love those. What did you do this weekend? Tell me one highlight! I remember when I was a kid the weekend seemed like it took forever. I always loved going back to school on Monday...it was almost like I couldnt even wait from Friday afternoon onward, because I loved seeing my friends. Crazy hey? Now I feel like I cant get long enough weekends. Gosh.

Man, you know, sometimes my biggest struggle with this whole blog thing is thinking of what to write...which is crazy because I write in my journal all day long, its almost like I cant get the pen out of my hand with all the ideas, but then when I am sitting infront of this computer screen I never know what to write. Does anyone else have this problem?

So on that note, im going to end it here and hope that tomorrow I will have more words to share. Three things I read today in my office that I want to pass onto you :


1. Trust your instincts more
2. Ask stupid questions, and then ask them again and again.
3. Laugh more and worry less


And with that, have a great week! x

  2. I sometimes have trouble as well. It's funny to think you could get writer's block on a blog and I wonder how regular columnists do it!

    That dress is awfully pretty! I love how you paired it with the socks.

  5. That's a gorgeous dress.
    And I completely agree with the trust your instincts point, but it's so much easier to say than do!

    It's Cohen

  6. That's a gorgeous dress, and I adore the combo with the socks <3

    And I understand what you mean about not knowing what to write in blogs, I've only been fashion-blogging for about a week and a day but I know what you mean...

    p.s come check out my blog, I'd be delighted to hear what you think of it - www.mesmericoutsider.blogspot.com

    you have a wonderful week too xxx

  9. I struggle the same way. I keep a paper journal as well as this personal blog, but sometimes I would just rather post pictures and not say anything.

  10. The dress is beautiful! It reminds me of slips from the turn of the century and getting ready in front of a gaudy old vanity with pigment pots an kohl pencils...

    Writers block often gets me when writing posts, or even writing comments--- some days it takes me so long to post not because I'm writing a novel, but because I can think of nothing to say... and then of course as soon as I put it up I think of a multitude of things that should have been included, but just sigh and move on because I have already spent too much time on it... it's nice to know I'm not alone!

  11. This dress is so pretty! I really love it - wherever did you find it?

  12. Thanks for the comment on my dress! I appreciate it! If we lived closer, you could borrow it, haha. :)

    "Blue is in Fashion this Year" did a little post on lace dresses ... I really like yours, so very pretty.

    This weekend I took my stinkin' grad homework to the shoreline and watched boats go by as I worked on it. :)

    Funny enough, I never have trouble thinking of what to write. It's because I'm a chatterbox.

    Talk soon!

  15. Oh that hair! I so wish I could have long hair like yours, but I'm having early hair-grow-no-more problems. It seems to have stopped at my shoulders. Anyway, your outfit is lovely and so are you! You positivity is always so inspiring :)

    xx,
    Dee

  17. Your dress is so lovely! It's such a pretty cream color!

    I was having that problem awhile ago, and my posts would be alot of words about nothing. I'm trying to focus my posts more (which is difficult for someone diagnosed with ADHD!)on certain topics and keep the random ideas and thoughts for my journaling. :]

  18. What a pretty dress! Love it! So vintage-y and romantic.

    And yes, I struggle with what to write in my blog sometimes as well... I feel like most people are mainly looking at the pictures, and then I'm not sure how much to share through writing! But I'm hoping it will come with time!

  28. Aw, I really like this post. Seems like I've missed a couple over the weekend- honestly, I need to go to bed but I thought to myself,"I haven't seen Kate in a while. I miss her", and went on here to see what was going on.
    I just really like how you're honest about having nothing to sat! That's so neat. And of course I'm loving your dress and hair and all.
    But I really just like you!

  29. What a beautiful romantic look! It reminds me of late Victorian styles with that lovely lace. I love it!

    I like the thoughts you posted here, too. I'm going to make #3 my goal for the rest of this month. I haven't done enough laughing so far and I've done far too much worrying. Time to turn that around! Thanks!

  32. Adore your dress, simply love everything that has lace on it..well almost. Really like that a lot of shops/stores have dresses and blouses with frills and lace...brings an extra smile to my face when I see it. Sometimes it feels like I could buy the whole lot! hahah :D

    Thanks for commenting on my blog, means the world to me ♥

  38. Aw this makes me want a white lace dress so so badly. I am also highly envious of your volumous hair. Lucky girl!

    I can totally understand! I feel like I have so many word jumbled in my head and things I want to mention, then I get to the keyboard and it's all gone. I guess it's because when I write a post I just feel selfish and like I'm doing nothing but talking about myself and there goes all my creative energy.

    Cheyne.
