1 Skirt 2 Ways: Paris Edition

{Top: This one store in Rome, Skirt: Unknown, Bag: Mom's closet, Shoes: Birkenstocks}

Yes I know what you are all thinking, and yes it is the same skirt.

Between the two posts, you can tell this skirt is very versatile despite its bright print.  It can be paired with a light sweater as seen here, or with a bralette to show some skin as shown in the previous post. 

Now to the exciting part! Drum rolllll. These pictures were taken in PARIS! As most of you know from my Instagram I was in Europe last April and had a blast! Don't worry more Europe pictures will be incorporated onto this blog.  In the mean time enjoy this view of the Arc de Triomphe, the colorful macaroons, and the iconic Eiffel Tower (I visited both places in the same day)

Loving It

When the sun comes out and the temperature rises, I find myself in a bit of slump. This "slump" is hard one to break, and I think everyone is guilty of it especially during the days the temperature hits 90!  I know what you're thinking- "Those Seattle people! They complain when its too cold and when its too hot! There is no pleasing them!" And there really isn't. 

So back to my slump. This slump is one where finding something to wear other than a plain tank top and shorts becomes quite difficult.  The sun just soaks the energy right out of me! And lets get real, all we ever do during summer is stay home aside from the occasional outing to the ice cream shop.  

Today I write in honor of the ending of this "slump."  Recently I have been inspired to put myself together and remember why I loved fashion and blogging in the first place.  And boy do I love it!

P.S. Thanks bestie for these amazing pics! <3

Weekend Outfit Hangover

{Top: Target, Shorts: Abercrombie, Sunglasses: Old Navy, Bag: Mom's closet}

How was everyone's 4th of July weekend? Mine was packed with delicious foods and lots of fun. I ended up breaking out the old school board games and Mario Kart with the ancient game cube controllers.  I know, ancient right?! Since the weekend was filled with so many "ancient" activities I decided to pair the all-american tee and denim shorts look with a vintage Louis Vuitton bag that belonged to my mother who gave it to moi. 

I was definitely still in the mood for July 4th when I picked this outfit, judging from the amount of red I have on (pretty much all the red I have in my closet). 

Fact: The picture of me playing on my phone is what I look like 99.9% of the time.
