blogiversary: turning one

  
Hello lovelies,

I sit here reflecting on the past year and how wonderful it has been. A year ago today, I had just moved to a new area. I decided to pick up blogging because honestly I just really wanted a hobby. My friends definitely nudged me in the direction towards it, when they saw how much I enjoyed photography and writing. What I did not realize, was how big the blogging world was and how much fun it would be.

  
It’s Lena Time has brought me to some of the cutest coffee shops, boutiques, and outdoorsy places around the area. Can I honestly say THANK YOU for joining me on this journey and always being so, sooo, SOOO encouraging! I have loved every moment and all the friendships that I have gained through this.

I am seriously in LOVE with this top that I am wearing, and basically this whole shop… which you can check out by clicking here. The quality, details, packaging definitely impressed me! They also were super sweet and are giving all of you 25% your purchase by using the code: ITSLENATIME

   
  
 Again, thank you all for being such a huge part of this journey.. I am looking forward to all the adventures in Year TWO with you all!

Xoxo,

Lena

down town.

  
Hello my loves!

Well, there is just something special about downtown areas. You know what I mean…I love how much there is to do, compacted in such a small area of space. It’s fun going to downtown areas of different cities to see the sights  that they offer.

  
I had been wanting to go to downtown Fullerton in just about forever, because there is this store that my friend told me about and ever since then I have pretty much religiously followed them.Oh hello friend! Yes, that’s the name of the most cutest, loveliest, *insert-every-single-descriptive-word-of-adoration-known-to-man-kind here.* I wanted to move every item in this store into my home.. Like, pronto.  

I also got to satisfy my sweet-tooth and enjoy the most delicious tea cafe I have ever really been to! I’m not a huge tea person, but matcha is my thing. Where’s it at? Tranquil Tea Lounge is where it’s at. And the only reason why I’m telling you this is because I’d love to see you there next time, obviously.  But really, berry matcha smoothies?! The quality of their tea was impeccable. You know where else it’s at? Bolu Bakery Cafe. Such a large coffee/bakery shop which has the BEST decor also. 

  
These stacked wall plants were the best. If only this was around the corner from my house.. Well actually good thing it’s not, otherwise I’m afraid I would be here way too often. 

I’ll see you next time,

Xoxo,

Lena
