Take the Fall

 

 Sorry I haven't posted in a few days! I've been pretty busy avoiding the sun. I'm beyond ready to start transitioning my wardrobe more towards fall, my favorite season for countless reasons. I couldn't exactly get dressed today using as many layers of cozy fabrics as I would have liked, but I could play a bit with the color palette. Ripped tights and sheer Victorian style tops in berry tones will just have to hold me over til it cools down! 

What's your favorite season for fashion?

Different

 I'm so excited to be posting an outfit for you guys! My boyfriend and I haven't been together as much lately (no problems, just busy schedules!) and that means less outfit photos for you guys! My birthday is coming up, and my mom surprised me with giving me my birthday money early, because I'll be back in Alaska on my actual birthday, and there's no shopping centers or anything where I live. Because of my Nordstrom internship coming up this June (SO EXCITED), I thought Nordstrom would be the best place to spend a chunk of my money. They always have great quality pieces that are both on trend yet classic. I'm so excited to be part of a store that I love so much. 

Also, I got a new blog makeover! I decided I wanted something simple and clean, and though I love the watercolor/pastel/pretty look, I just wasn't feeling like it was me any more. And besides that, my favorite thing ever is for things to change and be different from before!  

How have you guys been? What do you guys think of the new blog look?

It's Only Rock & Roll

 I've been so inspired by the 1970s lately. It's a decade I've always been drawn to, but lately, it's like I don't want to be wearing or listening to anything not from that time. It's funny how fashion and music work so hand in hand. At least they do, for me. Lately, my style inspiration question has been "Would mom have worn this when she was 19?" when getting ready in the morning. 

What decades have you guys been loving most lately? What's been inspiring you?

Sun Spot

 Finally, a bit of sunshine! And when I say a "bit", I mean it; As per Portland's usual, a sunny day merely means a few more sunny moments scattered through the day. But I'm not complaining! You guys are probably complaining about how often I talk about the weather, but it's undeniably obvious how much it effects what people wear. Today, I decided to embrace the sun spots with my favorite high rise corduroy shorts, my kimono, and my new turtle neck crop top from Nordstrom. I have been lusting after a top like this, and I finally found the perfect one at a great price this past week. I love it when a plan comes together!

Head to Toe

I've been wearing more and more head to toe Free People outfits lately. If I had to blame it on something, I would probably say it's my anxiousness for summer. This top for example, is such a perfect summer time piece for me. It's light, breezy, feminine, and easy to style. That's how I would describe my favorite summer time looks, and it's also how I'd describe  most everything I buy from Free People. It's definitely the essentially summer time store if you're looking to splurge. And I'm always looking to splurge.
