kennywood fun with dad!

hey all! yesterday, my dad and i went to our local amusement park...KENNYWOOD! we went later in the day and did the night rider thing, which was really nice. we spent about 4 and a half hours there and that was just enough time to get in all the coasters and a few other fun rides aaaand eat some yummy treats!
i took a few photos and thought i'd share them with you! enjoy!



yea i look pretty terrible in this last photo, but i like it anyways! if you were wondering what the heck in on my head, it's a chicken hat. we didn't buy those hats, though i think dad should have gotten that neato wooly hat! haha!

so this is the BEAUTIFUL necklace that i purchased last week from the ever talented oceanne , isn't it so lovely?! i'm going to be wearing it with the dress i bought for quinn's cousin's wedding in august. i'll post some better pictures of the entire outfit later! but i just wanted to show you how nice it hangs around the neck. it's such a delicate and pretty necklace, i couldn't be more pleased with this purchase! please go buy all of her things! she has many many gorgeous pieces!!!!

that's all for now dolls!!!
XOXO,

this week's inspiration monday is dedicated to FEATHERS! i'm really excited about feathers, i'm not going to lie. i've alway had a thing for them and birds themselves. i really like that feather are gaining popularity in the fashion and craft worlds. so here you go!
































i really like this illustration. it kind of makes me just want to paint feather and nothing but for about an entire month.


























anyone else completely smitten with feather hair extentions???
i totally am!





















i've always been into having feathers in hair. i like that it's catching on! everyone's walking around looking like gypsies and its fantastic! i love it! 
i hope you like the first instalement of inspiration monday and that you got a little inspiration out of it yourself!!

quick check-in

yep, i'm changing things once again. and i'll tell you why....things were looking alittle depressing around here and that's not what we're about. we're all about the whimsy here at O&C and i felt like the blog wasn't conveying that. i know you guys are probably sick on me changing things every couple of weeks. but i promise i'll get it here soon!

there's going to be a few changes here and there this week. you'll notice the colors changing here and there and probably the header. the layout will stay the same but once i get things straightened out, i know you'll love it just as much as i do!

also, i'll be introducing the new weekly segment tomorrow! yay! so keep a look out for that!
and hopefully in about a 2 weeks i'll get to share some pretty big and EXCITING news!!! i'm so stoked to share it with you guys, keep your fingers crosses things go as planned and then i can tell you allllll about it!



XOXO,
holly <3
