Lavender Love


I recently saw a photo on tumblr that completely inspired this look for me.  First off, I am obsessed now with colored shorts and pants.  I know they've been around forever, but I can't get enough of the pastel colors right now.  These shorts are a fav! They are so comfortable, and lavender is my favorite color.  Also, here is a quick glimpse of my wonderful boyfriend who takes most of my pictures for me.  He has made a special appearance in this post.  
The weekend is just around the corner.

Addicted to Aztec

I love this time of year because I love wearing bright colors! I've noticed though that in my last few posts I've been wearing a lot of black, and I rarely ever wear that much black.  This shade of blue pant was difficult to find.  And funny story. I actually went in to work earlier this day (at a boutique) wearing a different shirt.  I didn't really like the one I was wearing, and I found this gem hidden in the racks of clothes.  I'm obsessed with the Aztec print so it was a must! Everything seems like a 'must' to me lately :) Addiction? Probably. But aren't we all?
Happy Tuesday!

Lace and Braids

 Sorry in advance for the blurry pictures. I was on my way to dinner, and this was a spontaneous photo shoot, so we had to work with what we got (our iPhones). I love my new blouse with lace on the sleeves and open back.  I own a lot of black, but I had to get this one.  I don't have anything like it. I got my wedges on sale for $5 at a local boutique! And they are so comfortable. I seriously scored on them! Oh and I thought I'd mix it up with the braids instead of always having it down and straight.

The Killer Camo Trend

I know that camo has been the trend for a while now, but I am still loving it.  I found these flats at Target the other day, and flipped out! They are just what I have been looking for and were such a steal. I like keeping my outfits simple and adding a little flare at the end.

Stripe a Pose


So I've been noticing that a hot trend right now are stripes.  I've literally seen them everywhere! My favorite item has to be the Hudson striped super skinny jeans.  They are adorable!  I want them so bad, but you gotta be pretty awesome to pull those bad boys off.  I'm debating them at the moment. Seeing all of these stripes is getting me excited for summer. Where else have you seen stripes? 
P.S. I know it is raining right now, which I usually love. 
But where is that sunshine?!

V-Day Hike


Yesterday, I went on a Valentine's Day hike with my boyfriend. Those who know me are probably shocked by this. I am not a hiker whatsoever. But I stepped out of my comfort zone, and I actually enjoyed it. The scenery is amazing, and I love how peaceful and quiet it can be up in the mountains. At one point, I did feel like I was going to have a mild heart attack, but I was just overreacting (as usual). 
So, I recommend hiking. Or at least stepping outside your box. 
You might actually surprise yourself.
Hope everyone had a wonderful V-Day! <3

Beanie Baby


I absolutely love wearing beanies. Even in the summer time, although I tend to warm up quicker than usual. You can wear them with any outfit to make it look cute and casual. Add a pop of color with your beanie. I'm always about comfort, and beanies are so comfortable and effortless. They also do a great job of covering up a bad hair day.
Happy Friday!
