Back to School

 Forever 21 sunglasses, handmade necklace, thrifted top, shorts, and bag, Target sandals

Ha! Just kidding. I don't go back for two months. But, I went a little crazy at my local Value Village's fifty percent off sale buying long sleeves, a thick wool jacket, and this little leather bag (???) just in time for this week of eighty degree weather (???). My seasons may be a bit off shopping wise but I'm enjoying this summer weather so much! Nothing beats being able to throw on cut-offs, a white t-shirt, and sandals and calling it an outfit.

Thee Perfect Bag

This. Bag. I'm obsessed. I love being able to incorporate an item into multiple Polyvore collages. This bag as you can see works with EVERYTHING. Now I just need it in real life...

Princess Charming

Pretty, pretty, pretty is all I can think of when looking at these photos I took of my friend Brooke a couple weeks ago. Every bit of her house is full of charm and character and peonies are basically the prettiest flower there is. Also, Brooke is kind of the most beautiful person ever.

I'm also playing around with some footage from that day so there may be a video within the next few weeks!

Summer Essentials

 Kohl's sweater, thrifted shorts and bag, Target shoes, Urban Outfitters sunglasses

Summer! Glorious, wonderful, beautiful... I'm loving every minute of it. This outfit is a combination of all my essentials this season.

1. A sweater for Washington's not so hot weather and cool nights.
2. Cut-off shorts, purchased from Goodwill and cut and distressed to perfection.
3. Minimalist sandals that are both comfortable and chic.

Also, this Love, Blair inspired hairstyle is all I've been wearing for weeks!

Polyvore

Polyvore has been around for a while now but I just recently got an account and have become a little bit addicted... On one hand it's incredibly entertaining to create outfits with a endless closet but on the other I'm being tempted to buy all the amazing pieces I find! 

You can find where to get all these beautiful items on my profile!

Age is But a Number

 Urban Outfitters top and sunglasses, Piperlime cardigan, thrifted jeans, bag, and shoes

This weekend I turned eighteen. It's definitely bittersweet for me as I feel I've been kicked out of the club that is childhood but I'm excited for what the future brings as an "adult". They say "age is but a number" but eighteen is made out to be quite the deal. My sister Chelsea flew over from Minneapolis this weekend and we spent all of Friday walking, shopping, eating, talking, drinking coffee, and taking pictures in Seattle. Aka, thee best city in the world. She surprised me with my first trip to the top of the Space Needle once the clouds cleared and there was Seattle in all it's glory! I'm finding I truly am a city girl.
