over the river

One of my favorite things about Winthrop had to be the river. It was sort of mesmerizing. I now understand why Pocahontas sang a whole song about them. Ted and I didn't take any photos of the river during this particular evening in town, but we did decide to stop at the bridge over the river and snap a few photos before enjoying one of the best meals either of us have had in a very long time. Bravo delicious Italian restaurant in Twisp, WA. Bravo. 

a stroll through town

Maybe it's the theater girl in me, but I love a well-themed ensemble. Not to the point where I feel like I'm walking around in a costume or anything - I'll wait to do that when I fulfill my dream job of working at Disneyland - but rather something that makes me feel at home among the scenery. So when my boyfriend told me we'd be visiting a town that looked like an old Western film I had to bust out the strappy feather-trimmed sandals, burnished gold accessories and sunset-red dress.

a weekend in winthrop

{our view from the cabin}

My boyfriend and I decided to embark on a little getaway this past weekend, so we packed up the car and headed a few hours northeast to Winthrop, WA where his family has a cabin. Surrounded by the beautiful Cascade mountain range (the scenery is astounding!) and themed as an old-fashioned Western town (it felt like Disneyland!), Winthrop is, in a word, idyllic. This was my first time visiting and I'm already counting the days until I can go back. A few outfit posts are in the works, so for now I'll just share a few snapshots from our trip. Enjoy!
