fall in summer

some of my favourite things
vintage boots, bdg charcoal jeans (i have them in multiple lengths), my pendleton and warm colours....
i'm a fall b.t.w. i took a class in colour theory and we all did an exercise to find out what "season" we were, how very late 80's/early 90's of us.
you're going to see this little crop top in my grand canyon post coming up too, unfortunately it didn't do to well in the wash and is now shorter and even wider. boo.
it was a coldish wet start to summer so this outfit is actually from just a month or so ago, a total contrast to the 30+degrees this week.
wearing asos cardi, urban outfitters top and jeans, vtg boots, pendleton bag

bittersweet bryce - the trip must go on


leaving arches was a bittersweet moment, good because there was lots more adventure ahead, but we'd be missing the park and our home away from home at castle valley inn. we made a few photo op. spots on our way back to kanab, not to mention a middle of nowhere successful! search for nail polish remover, my manicure did not last...



we made a quick detour to bryce canyon national park. it's not as hiker friendly as some of the other parks in utah and we've been there before, so we just went to take some pictures. i do recommend their trail rides though, such a great experience.


there was still a lot of snow up here in the mountains. definite sweater weather, the complete opposite of the next day's trip to zion.

my mom is so cute in this one.


the guns! one of my favourite shots of the trip.

true north loves << alma luna >>

the gorgeous alma jodorowsky from alma luna.
i adore this french model/blogger and i'm not the only one, opening ceremony used her in their recent intimates campaign (featured below). unfortunately she's not updating too much at the moment, but her archives are absolutely worth a look.

unbelievable - arches national park


worth the 8+hrs of driving, arches national park is the most amazing place i've ever been to in utah. the hikes were relatively easy and the views were completely breath taking. we only had one day, but we fit in 3 different trails, a lunch time side trip to moab and so many photo ops that both our cameras and my flipcam ran out of battery.
***this post is very picture heavy***

the drive into the park

balanced rock

on the trail to delicate arch... it was so windy

bundled up against the wind and looking out for cactus!

on top of the world on the edge of the trail, just around the bend from the arch

the delicate arch
basically the symbol of utah. absolutely amazing.

that tiny figure is me standing in the arch, so cool. right on the edge of the cliff

one of the peaks in the massive national park, doesn't it look like lion?

on the trail to landscape arch, the 2nd most popular hike in the park
