Airplanes and Grassy Plains



It is Friday, hooray! I started off my morning with a nice large cup of coffee from my favorite local coffee shop here in Boulder called Ozo.  I had my namesake coffee called the "Hannah Bee", which is a mocha with hints of vanilla and honey in it.  They have a specialty Mocha list and everything I have tried on it is wonderful.  They have a Mayan mocha which has cocoa nibs and some sort of chipotle spice, a red velvet mocha with raspberries, and so many more unique and delicious creations. I hate the coffee at work, but would be even more broke if I got coffee out every day.  So, I usually only allow myself a special cup on Fridays as something to look forward to at the end of the long week.  Do you make special days for certain things so you have something to look forward to or as a way to budget money better?
 
 
 
Outfit Details:
Shorts: thrifted/ altered
Wedges: thrifted
Bow Earrings: Romwe
Glasses: Ray Ban

    So, these pictures were taken last weekend.  I just got in my car and drove for a few minutes away from town and ended up by the tiny Boulder airport which had some sort of glider show going on.  It was amazing!  I found a little grassy prairie at the end of a little residential area and tried to time my tripod to catch pictures of the planes that were taking off every five minutes or so.  It was kind of a trying process, but it was beautiful and interesting to watch either way! 
    I am wearing the prettiest baby blue vintage blouse with a perfect little lace collar that is now available in my shop.  The shorts I am wearing I thrifted a few months ago, but they were almost knee length and got buried in my endless alterations pile.  I finally got around to them last weekend and I love them now! They are slightly high waisted, have large ruched pockets, a tiny polka dot print, and a huge bow.  Oh and the best part- the back of the waist is elastic, so it gives a tiny bit of breathing room unlike other high waisted denim that I have- I love the way it looks, but man oh man, I want to tear those things off (or at least unbutton the top button) within an hour of putting them on!  
     I am also wearing my glasses in a few photos, since I don't think they have ever made an appearance on here before! I usually only wear them for driving at night or going to the movies, but I brought them so I could see the planes better.  Also, thank you for all of your kind words about my training at work, it has been going well! You guys are the best! Any fun plans for the weekend? I want to hear about them!

p.s. SOCK BUN ALERT!

  4. The huge expanses of blue sky in these photos is amazing! I know how you feel about high waisted shorts, those ones are super cute though with the little polka dots. I can't believe they used to be knee length, I'm finding that hard to picture!

  7. This has to be the best location ever:) Airplane fields like this are the best place to just kick back - there's one in Philly near the water that my hubs and go to frequently to just lay out on the roof of our car and watch the planes fly overhead in the summer.

    Per always your outfit is so so pretty! I really adore the blue on blue here - something I've never tried before, but so want to after seeing this!

    I was going to email you earlier today about the logo but looks like you got to me first:) No rush - as long as I have it by the 30th in the afternoon, we'll be good to go:) Thanks Hannah! Have a loverly week! xx Marisa
