I love these posts - just did one about "getting to know me" too. I'd love if you could check it out!
I'm a Brazilian gal living in Virginia. I'm married to the sweetest guy, and I document our life over at www.eachlovelything.com
So far my favorite posts have been home décor, calligraphy, anything baby and wedding. I love making pretty things. I write about everything and anything, but I love posts where I highlight what I'm thankful for, as well as any DIY or home renovations we do.

My favorite Spring time outfit would have to be cute dresses and booties, with a light scarf. Or an all white ensemble - I always feel so chic! I'm not a lover of beaches or pool, but I'd have to go with the beach mostly because of the atmosphere. Sign me pup for a hammock, cold beer, sea breeze and blue water.
I still love blogging more than anything. But instagram is a big part of my day too. I'm not too connected with twitter. I'd love to hear more about wedding prep! It's so fun to see what choices other brides make!

Favorite spring time outfit would have to be: maxi dresses or skirts. Definitely prefer the pool, if I can't see my feet or what I'm touching, I am not going in. Lol Twitter is my favorite social media platform.
