A Weekend in Vail

Just wanted to share a few photos from my weekend in Vail! Or maybe a little more than a few, whoops! This is probably my last real weekend getaway of the summer, but with a lot of big changes coming up for me in the near future, it will be good to stay put for a little bit and get all my ducks in a row! (By the way, I just had to ask R what the "ducks in a row" saying was, as all I could think of in my mind was putting eggs in a row.  I am notorious for making up my own sayings that are slightly "different" than the original version (read: wrong)).
Outfit Details: Green jumper & bag - vintage // Top & Boots - thrifted // Sunnies - Target

     Anyway. Can't you just feel the fresh mountain air? Vail is only about a two hour drive West into the Rockies from where I live, yet I haven't actually been since I came to Colorado with my family in high school.  As I said in Monday's post, its mainly a ski town designed to look like a European village but its super pretty in summer as well! All of the gorgeous buildings have flower boxes out and we just walked around the cobblestone streets taking pictures and exploring.  We veered off the main street for awhile to oggle the amazing houses in a nearby neighborhood too, which was probably my favorite part!  The fourth pic from the bottom is my dream home, just in case, ya know, someone wants to get it for me.
      Sorry for the photo overload, this is as far as I could narrow it down because its just such a picturesque place.  I hope you're all having a great week! Also, if I can pry this emerald green vintage jumper from my own wanting hands, you should be seeing it in the shop soon!

  1. I am really sad I never made it into the mountains this summer, it's only a 3-4 hour drive but i always have to get someone else to drive because my poor car won't make it.
    These photos are so gorgeous, I definitely can feel the mountain air just looking at them!! You look adorable in that striped sweater under the green dress. Perfect combination!

  6. Ok I want to move to Vail already! Colorado mountain towns really put our PA mountain towns to shame...haha. As much as I hate cold weather - I really think I could be quite happy there.

    Of course I am all swooning up over your dress - and no lie, I was hunting out emerald green jumper style dresses just like this today before reading your post. If you do decide to stick it in your shop - please shoot me an email b/c I will surely snag it up - assuming it's my size :-)

    Happy hump day Hannah! xoxo Marisa

  11. Hahaha, I love that you have to remember the "correct versions" of sayings. I feel like I'm looking up how to use certain phrases and words almost all the time...

    Oooh, the green of your jumper is just beautiful! You're very forest-y, here, Hannah, and gosh your trip pictures are excellent. Look at all that beautiful greenery!
