Weekend Wear

Every summer, my life gets busier and busier and there's only one way I know how to relax - kicking it back at home in Brooklyn wearing basically an outfit that could be confused for PJs. We took these photos a few weeks after our trip to the Philippines (pics coming soon) and at this time, I was all about the island life. I still think I'm all about the island life.

Feeling Knotty - Get It?!

You guys! I know it’s been a while, but I have a few things to share:

1. I was on a mission to cut my hair last week and A) I don’t like now and B) I’m deeply distraught because I want my hair to look like it does in these pics. Why do I make such bad decisions?! 

2. I’m literally obsessed with this white t-shirt and I keep buying it instead of washing it. Again, what is wrong with me? #issues

3. I found these sunglasses at the cutest shop in Athens, Georgia and pretty much every four-year-old in Park Slope has the same pair. Now what.

4. I almost bought a pair of Vans, but instead stumbled upon these rad Timberland sneakers. That’s correct, I said Timberland. Impressive. 

5. Zara had the biggest sale ever and I snagged this skirt. As I do with all Zara items, I completely messed up the laundering situation (reason = tag…) and it shrunk. How sad, right?

My So-Called Life

Life could not have been any busier for me over the last few months, Here's what you missed:

• I was on nine planes in one month and so glad to be home safe. I'll spare you the airport codes because I hate when people do that.
• During my brief time actually at home, I stumbled across this amazing  store in my hood and this one too!
• We bought a car! Her name is up in the air. 
• I chopped off my purple hair and what was left turned blonde. My inspo? Jessica Alba - god, I love her. 
• I also recently learned that my hairstyle is called The Midi and on trend for spring - go me!
• My blood, sweat and tears have been going towards this cool project. 
• My judgement was momentarily impaired leading to the worst mistake of my life when I bought this. #fail
• I made the cut for the 25 Best Looks of Lucky FABB! Holla!
• I'm in love with a t-shirt and needed to show it off to the world!
