You Were Born to Bloom // Outfit Post



Downtown Southport is a beautiful place to be in late spring. Here is a snap of my mom, brother, and me in front of the Maritime Museum (which, in case you're wondering, is the place to learn about the history of Brunswick County. You'll get a solid social studies lesson, along with a few pirate yarns to add relish). Notice the beautiful purple flowers, the black iron fence, and the quaint brick buildings behind us. So pretty.



There is a charming little shop in Southport on the corner of Howe and East Moore called Bull Frog Corner. It's one of those quirky shops, crammed floor-to-ceiling with all kinds of toys, books, beach souvenirs, and candy. In fact, there's a little platform inside that leads to a room filled with everything from maple candies to gummies to chocolate-covered raisins. It's arguably the most intriguing part of the store, and that's saying something, considering there is some kind of merchandise covering every square inch of the place. Today, we got one of Jeffrey's friends a little birthday present from the toy section, and he bought himself a Star Wars staff, which he is holding in the top picture.

 

As we wandered around different places downtown, Mom took pictures of me in this bright pink ensemble. It's been a while since I did a full-on outfit post, and you seemed to enjoy those, so what better time to do another one than today? I decided to wear top-to-bottom neon pink for these shots... have I ever mentioned how much I love color?

  

In Matilda, the kind teacher who eventually adopts the poor orphan girl lives in a lovely little whitewashed house in the forest. This wall reminds me of that mental imagery my mind conjured up when I read that book... it feels so fanciful and romantic.

 

Hope you enjoyed this post! Let me know what you think!

 

Have a blessed day, today and always.

xoxo,

Ireland
