Can't Buy a Thrill

This is an outfit I wore a while back, but I hadn't shared the photos with you guys yet. I am so obsessed with these conductor stripe pants from Nordstrom. For me, they're the perfect summer pant. They're light, fun, and super easy to style. I have worn them so many times this week, and I am surprised as to how well they work with so many different things! Ever since I was a kid, I have been obsessed with traveling, especially by train, so I fell in love with these railroad striped babies imediately! Wearing them makes me want to plug into my iPod, crank the Bob Dylan, hop a train, and go on an adventure..

All There

 "Wherever You Are, Be All There." 

Maybe it's the sunshine talking, but I'm feeling pretty damn alive lately. I have always been the kind of person who feels emotions very deeply, which is both a blessing and a curse, but I have not always been the kind of person who embraces it. I'm still not really, but every once and a while I get a peek into what life is like when you live it 'all there', and I realize all over again how mesmerizing and stupidly wonderful life can be. Today was one of those days for me, and I feel like my outfit reflected that. Outfits are more than just a "style", to me, they're an emotion, and today's emotions were happy, lively, grateful, and all there.

Fisherman's Daughter

This was one of those outfits I just felt "right" in. As you know if you've been reading my blog, I've been feeling a little off lately, and that usually results in some homesickness. A lot of the outfits I wear on my blog wouldn't fly in every day Alaska life, but this one totally would. Maybe it was my home sickness, maybe it was the horrible weather - Hell, maybe it was both! But today I just felt like dressing like the most comfortable version of myself, the first version of myself; just a fisherman's daughter.
