in the garden

Today Abbie, Morgan, and I went to a park with all these beautiful gardens. When we got there we found out that all the flowers are going to be cut down tomorrow, so we were very lucky to be there today! The flowers are so beautiful. After living here for almost three years, I never knew all these gardens existed. They're like hidden gems amongst the big city.

I just got these shorts in the mail! I've been wanting printed, flowy shorts for a while now, and figure these will be versatile in all seasons. They are also very appropriate as they match the flowers. I added wedges, a tank and blazer, and piled on the accessories. I thought the hat and scarf were a little too much so I took them off later. (Oh, and did anyone notice I finally took an outfit photo OUTSIDE?! ... this is a once in a rare opportunity! Haha).

More photos to come SOON! I'll edit them after I do some homework and post them tonight or tomorrow.

still sunny

Okay, I'm starting to get sick of this backdrop...when I have the time I'd love to take outfit photos outside! (The fluorescent lighting and wooden closet doors aren't doing much for me.) Especially because it's STILL sunny! Not quite fall weather yet. I love it, because I get to wear shorts and don't have to worry about a ton of layering yet.

I just got back from Rockwood Bakery with a friend for some lunch. It was so nice to get off campus in between classes (cough, I mean 2 tests), to chat and relax. I had a chicken sandwich and one of the most amazing brownies ever. Every time I go to Rockwood, I always get one of the brownies. Chocolate is too temping to pass up. :)

My very first outfit post!

I'm excited to finally try out the whole outfit post thing. I'm hoping that I will be able to improve my personal style over time - what better way to do that than taking photos? (Kind of like Cher's polaroids on Clueless, haha). Maybe it'll be an everyday thing, maybe it won't. We'll see where it goes from here.

Anyways, after my post yesterday about seventies fashion, I had to try it out for myself. I added a little crochet and bohemian-esque accessories with seed bead wedges to add a touch of the trend to my outfit.
