FLEUR AND DOT

Oh you know, just mixing prints and shades of blue/green like it’s my job. I think these two items were meant to be together.

PINEAPPLE LOVE

pineapplelove1

I wore this outfit this past weekend while we wandered around Harvard Square. We walked through the Harvard campus, had some pizza and ice cream, and enjoyed the last bit of sunshine before the sun set. 

P.S - for those of you that sew, let this be a lesson in pre-washing your fabric. I, obviously, didn’t with this one. I’m lazy. But I swear that hem was even when I made it…. and then I washed it. Yeah, I’m gonna go ahead and pretend I intended it to be that way.

FANCY PANTS (TIMES TWO)

sweatpants5

Fancy sweatpants, that is. They’re my jam. Or well, they are now. I’m obsessed with the idea of dressing them up and actually being able to wear them out of the house. So I bought a basic grey and black pair from Old Navy back in the winter, and then theres my lacey Lou and Grey pair

But I wasn’t satisfied. I needed more. So I took matters into my own hands and made myself not one, but two new pairs. Two fancy pairs. And I love how they came out. I even wore the black and white and pink outfit to work the other day. Yeah, sweatpants to work. That happened.

WHITES AND CREAMS

Why does my hair look kinda red in these photos? Ha. It’s amazing what different lighting can do for photos. 

I’ve been in such a good mode lately. It’s these lovely early summer days. Boo and I have been going out for a few walks in the evening on warm days. We get ice cream, picking up fresh flowers, and soak up the sunshine. We went on our first summer hike yesterday, too! Seriously, I  love summer so much.
