B&W

 The weather was gorgeous today! Portland is in the process of having the most gorgeous and perfect fall. The sun is shining, it's not too hot and it's not yet cold, the colors are beautiful, and the air smells crisp! Today was spent in front of my desk doing homework and blog related things, but the time I did find to be outside was great. It's supposed to be nice all week, so I'm definitely going to utilize this week when it comes to transitioning summer pieces to fall! This outfit, to me, is an okay example. I was going to put a plaid shirt on over it to give it that cozy fall vibe, but I felt like the simple black and white was great for today. Lately I've been feeling like getting down to business in both school, and blogging, and as per usual my outfits have been reflecting my mood. Long story short, I've been feeling motivated and you all can hopefully expect a lot more content out of me on a regular basis these upcoming months!

In other news, I'm thinking about getting a dog and am pretty excited. Unless I decide to not go through with it, in which case, forget I mentioned it! :) I hope you all are having an awesome day. Also, if you haven't already entered, I'm hosting a giveaway! You can win one copy of Alexa Chung's "It" simply by liking my Facebook page, following this blog on bloglovin, etc. If you've already preordered you're own copy, feel free to spread the word!

Trendy Tuesday: B&W Contrast

Hello there everyone! I'm going to keep it short today, because I think the picture kind of speaks for itself. As you know, it's Trendy Tuesday, and today I'm sharing some items featuring a trend I'm seeing everywhere - black & white stripes! Black & white stripes, though simple, can create an edgy contrast. 

What do you think of the trend?
