Hello there, party people!

Today's look is one of those 'I just threw this on me in 5 minutes and made my hair poufy' looks that I've been loving (out of necessity) lately. You know how boys have this urgency when they decide to go somewhere ASAP and you're expected to be ready in the next few minutes? Well, living with two of them, I'm having to adapt slowly but surely.

This is attempt number 1, featuring the most perfect ripped skinnies I own. These, my friends, are the Rockstar skinnies from Old Navy. Not sure if I've properly introduced them to everybody, but for anyone wanting a good skinny on a budget, I've got you covered. 

Until we meet again, internet. Thank you so much for stopping by!

So, it took me a while to warm up to my running shoes as a style staple, but here I am, I suppose. I wore this the other day when figuring out the bus route for my new summer job in LA- initially went with the sneakers for comfort reasons, but they ended up looking pretty snazzy so I suppose a quick snap was in order. 

This is a bit of a baby blog post due to the lack of photos, but when I found this one on my camera, it just seemed like the perfect time to share! 

Thank you so much for stopping by!

Being in a different setting for the summer has inspired me to stray away from all the items on heavy rotation during the school year. Deep hues, short skirts and prints are here to stay for the next few months, and I couldn't be happier.  There's something so refreshing about the change of the seasons, like another chance to start anew, re-evaluate your goals, strategies, wardrobe- and become inspired with your surroundings. Sort of cheesy? Maybe, but I'm all about anything that might require a new resolutions list (and some new outfits, anyone?). I'm currently in love with the deep blue of this ShopSosie top and on the hunt for as many items in the color as possible. Fun fact: this baby is a cold shoulder top, so being able to wear it as a regular top and still creating a look that I'm fond of is great! I always enjoy getting my money's worth when it comes to my purchases.  Thank you so much for stopping by! Hope everyone is feeling as inspired this summer as I am!
