Here's a few of my favorite images I've taken on Instagram of late. I've not taken as many photos as I'd like to over the past couple of months but I'm slow getting back into it. Incidentally I've been thinking about buying a new compact; only thinking mind as one of my main priorities at the moment is saving for our Orlando trip pt.2. You may remember we had to cut our first trip early due to a death in the family.

We're all booked for June and this time the road trip we planned to embark on the first time is definitely on. Our loose plan right now is to drive up to Savannah, Georgia then on to Charleston, South Carolina with the finally destination being something within the Blue Ridge Mountains and staying over in some Ralph Lauren style log cabin. Sounds good to me, have any of you guys been around those areas?

Let me know your Instagram handle and I'll get following. Find me at @mat_buckets.

  1. Hey Mat, you're going to really enjoy your trip to the Blue Ridge Mountains. It's beautiful down there. Maybe you could hike a bit of the Appalachian Trail while you're stateside. Charleston & Savannah are absolutely one of a kind.

    Love the instagram feed,too.

  2. Loving those New Balance trainers, my friend has just got one and loves them, saying that it is the most comfortable trainers he've ever worn.

    I've read couple of Aesthetia and enjoyed reading them.

    Oo the trip sounds exciting, it is nice that even though your trip was cut short, you two are still carrying on with this trip- looking forward to hear about it and see the pictures

  5. My hubs is actually in Orlando right now! Blue Ridge is very close to us:) Each of those stops is beautiful! Especially love the old historic feel of Savannah. Hope you get good weather so you can hit up the beach there:)

  7. Haven't been to those areas but you ought'a take some NGco gear with you and see about getting it by some shops maybe? I'm glad to hear your trip is still on plan. I was supposed to make a trip up to denver this month but doesn't look like it's going to happen. Probably post poned till June, but that's alright with me. Been VERY busy this month.

    I'm glad you got a snap of that car there! I take it it's a bit rare spotting something like that? Maybe I'm being a bit ignorant but I feel over there you see quite a bit of cars like that there. Is that true? What's the most common car you see where you're at? Rarest? Exotics? Personally I'm a huge fan of vintage sport/exotic cars. I'd really like to take a trip over there just to see the vehicles around town.

    Your key fob looks great with the jeans and bandana. Is that a photo you styled for Northern Goods for a lookbook or something?

    Cool to see a behind the scenes shot at the studio. Was it for personal use or were you sporting some clothes and modeling abilities for someone?

    Well aren't I full of questions. haha. Sorry to add more to the comments you just mentioned about answering. I understand it takes time. I appreciate you replying late and leaving a hearty comment then a bland one.
