Tarpon Springs






















Shirt - Merona (Thrifted) // Skirt - Maurices // Shoes - Hot Cakes // Necklace - Claire's
Thanks, Catherine for taking the photos of me!

So yeah, these are pictures from Florida (My sister and I are visiting my Papaw). Know what that means? I'm all caught up on old photos!! At least I'm assuming I am. You know, at this point I'm not going back to check. I've really wanted to improve the quality of the photos on my blog, so I'm really excited to be done with the older photos and start posting new, hopefully better, ones!

Anyways, these are from Tarpon Springs in Florida--a rather fun, beautiful, place. This was the one place I was really looking forward to visiting on this trip since the last time I went was 10 years ago! Tarpon Springs is a beautiful little tourist town with dolphin watching, sponge diving, and the largest Greek population compared to any other city in the US.

We went out on a boat to watch a guy sponge dive--very fun. After that we just walked around the town and visited a bunch of family owned shops. I bought some lilac goat's milk soap which, I must add, smells amazing. Later, we drove to the less touristy area and walked through several antique shops. One in particular had a very large WWII section with uniforms, weapons, letter...etc. Busy day! But very fun :) Hope summer's going well for all of you!

    I always love reading about your adventures with your family, you guys are just the cutest! That diving suit has to be the coolest thing though, it looks so awesome! (I think I'd be a little scared to dive in it though, it seems like it'd be claustrophobic!) I love how you did your makeup in this post, your eyes are AMAZING.

    This looks like so much fun! Super cute outfit.

    P.S. I really hope you don't copy my tattoo :) Original ideas are best! Plus it would be super weird because we both live in Akron!

      I do! There's quite the blog scene in Akron somehow! If you're up for any meet-up's let me know. We have them semi-often!

      Yeah, I've been finding that out! I keep finding more Akron bloggers! I've met a few, but not at any official meet-ups. That sounds fun though!

    I didn't know Tarpon Springs was so quaint! I love seaside towns (your photos make it look like the ones I visited in France)! I used to live in Florida, and think I only ever drove through Tarpon Springs on the way somewhere else. These photos make me wish we'd stopped and explored more!

    Also, it was so nice to meet you last week at the swap! Glad you could make it!

    See you around!
