Bobbles + Dots

Happy October! Popping in with another quick outfit post… from the first day of my favorite month of the year. October hits… and so does my collection of burnt orange sweaters. 😆 And it’s finally feeling like more autumn weather here in the Upper Peninsula, although, our fall colors are quite behind schedule! But it was nice to transition a bit from summer to fall this week. Just a quick one today, with a sort of “old-school” Tieka outfit post. Still rocking the polka dot tights, however many years later!

By Thill's

What if… we tried some quick outfit shots?! Like 4-6 photos. A little quick post that doesn’t requite a ton of time commitment. It was nice on this night actually… I finished a full work day, worked on the program for Fresh Coast Film Festival, ate dinner at home, worked on my 15th blogiverary post, walked around the neighborhood quick, shot a few photos by Thill’s Fish House, went home, and still had time to… start a new show and catch up with some friends. A pretty OK solo evening.

15 Year Blogiversary

In celebration of my 15th blogiversary, here's a new outfit post, paying homage to my first post with gray and finding a railroad track here in Marquette! On September 3, 2009, I took my first "outfit shots" on the tracks near my apartment in Grand Haven after discovering fashion blogs. What started as a fun, personal project led me on an amazing journey. I'm so grateful for the experience!

Big Bay Point Lighthouse

Ahhhh, the Big Bay Point Lighthouse. What a dream! I absolutely love visiting this lighthouse, but it’s extra magical when I can stay overnight. It’s one of the few operational lighthouses that offer a bed and breakfast, and such a perk it’s so close to Marquette, only 24 miles northwest in the town of Big Bay, Michigan. It’s perched on top of a tall bluff over a rocky point, with picturesque views.

The Cheboygan Lighthouses

The Cheboygan Lighthouses! #101, #102, and #103. These are very accessible lighthouses in Cheboygan… all located within five minutes of each other. The Front Range Light is set back a bit on Water Street, sort of in an industrial area, and is normally open for tours/a little gift shop. The Crib Light & Pier Light are located in Turner Park. I loved the Crib Light most… it’s just a cute little lighthouse before you take a walk on the pier!

St. Helena Island Lighthouse

St. Helena Island Lighthouse… my 100th Michigan lighthouse! I knew I wanted 100 to be a special one, and St. Helena was more of an experience… you have to take a boat to get there, you can tour the grounds, and climb the tower. Plus, she’s just a beaut! This lighthouse symbolized not just an accomplishment but the many adventures and lighthouses still to come!
