a few months ago, Crissy & i were discussing bridesmaid gifts.

we were bouncing ideas off of each other, trying to brainstorm cute ideas we’d seen on Pinterest, discussing what the girls wouldn’t want, figuring out what we’d use again, etc.

naturally, it was a fun discussion- i thought she’d settled on boyfriend-style oxfords (perfect for after wedding-day hair appointments).

well, fast forward to last Friday night when she passed out the cutest Etsy-made burlap totes filled with Kate Spade earrings, a coffee table book (each girls’ book was tailored to their lifestyles-mine: Louboutins), & last but certainly not least,

a monogrammed chambray button-down from Madewell.

i flipped out.

call it the wine or the almost-wedding day hysteria,

whatever it was, i could not stop beaming over the gift(s)!

Crissy went above & beyond,

& you better believe i’ll be wearing what i can & showing off the coffee table book come this fall!

Hi! I'm Brooke. I live in the great city of Indianapolis & I welcome you to my little nook of the world. I have an immense adoration for the simple pleasures in life, for sporting events (Go Colts, Huskers & Cards!), for the arts, for mad beats & acoustic tunes, for fabulously frilly goods & for all things nerdtastic & academic. I'm just a twenty-something girl who was born in the land of corn & eventually found her way by picking up a couple letters behind her name, clinging to a Maltipoo named Bentley & by learning life lessons from some truly amazing people. Thank you for stopping by & please feel free to leave a comment (or ask a question) under the "Be Kind" tab at the top... xo, B
