calivintage: monterey

i’m back from a weekend away in monterey, ca! it was brendan’s birthday on sunday, so we decided to head out of town right after work on friday and drove two hours to our room in asilomar all ready waiting for us with fresh wood in the fireplace. the next morning, we woke up bright and early to explore the area before ending the evening with celebratory chocolate mousse cake and champagne. some of our adventures included an epic breakfast of turkey and avocado benedict, a very fruitful trip to a local used bookstore, a beautiful drive along the scenic 17-mile drive, and a pleasant stroll along a trail in asilomar that led us to the beach in these photos! these are the types of weekends that i live for, these wonderful carefree days where i can just get away from it all to enjoy some outside air in the company of my favorite person!

and do you recognize this tunic? it’s the family affairs field of diamonds tunic made exclusively for of a kind that i’m giving away on my blog this week. if you’re interested in the details, you can read all about the tunic and the giveaway in this post, or you can simply enter to win it by signing up for the of a kind weekly mailing list! a winner will be randomly selected tomorrow evening, so get to it!
