Focusing more on what my home state has to offer is something I've been trying to do more of over the last few years, not just for the sake of content, but for my own benefit! While I was chatting with Courtney she told me she had a whole list of places to visit, and I need to take a page from her and set about discovering all of Connecticut's little gems.

I truly think that that part has been the best part of blogging lately---finding new and interesting places in my own area!! And my mom and Nancy have enjoyed that too---even though it means changing clothes in some funny places...ha ha!!
ReplyDeleteThat purse is the best!!

It's easy to overlook how much a place has to offer if you're there day in and day out. And Connecticut really does have such a rich history, I imagine it's practically bursting with cute and charming towns. Central Canada is, admittedly, a little less like that, but moving back to my hometown after ten years, it really has struck me how many lovely spots I took totally for granted when I was growing up... and that, after spending ten years living in a much newer city where almost all of the historical buildings have been bulldozed, I really missed living in a place where that is appreciated, at least to a degree. I love the look the Shove Building and I can't wait to see what other Connecticut places you'll venture.

Such pretty locations!! I love those earrings, they're so cool!
ReplyDeleteI need to explore CT more too, but I'm just so lazy and don't want to drive to places I've never been, hah

I absolutely adored my time in Connecticut, there are so many wonderful and historic things to see. I'm so glad you're doing some exploring (I wish I had done even more!).

I love that you are taking advantage of smaller towns near you. It always amazes me how much there is to offer locally that we don't know about!
ReplyDeleteI think there are hidden gems and many cities and places in every state. I certainly don't go out enough to see it all here in lovely Michigan. I need to explore more and start taking my photos out in different areas of the city. I love a good sweater dress. You are so polished. The little rings and earrings and that fur bag make me so happy!

Your hair looks so good Lydia !
ReplyDeleteThe picture with the yellow house as a backdrop is my fave here.
What a cute area! We never do any exploring around us. We should and it would be fun, but there just never seems to be enough time. Love that dress + boots!

What a lovely dress! you've layered it beautifully!
ReplyDeleteSo fun you got to catch up and visit somewhere new too, it does make a lovely backdrop for outfit photos :) I've seen so many nice spots for photos, but with two little ones in tow every time I'm out it's just not possible - maybe once they are older I'll break away from my usual spot at home, haha!
Hope you are having a nice start to the week! Our heatwave is starting to end so I'm welcoming the slightly cooler weather! :)

What a beautiful place, with lots of IG-worthy sights. Indeed, it's very easy to overlook the beautiful places if you're living in it. This is why it's always good to take some time-out and walk around your city. By the way, love how your sweater dress perfectly fits you dear. Cozy and edgy coat too.

What a chic outfit! I love those boots. I like the idea of exploring your state or city. I might have to take that as well!
