On the Beach

Does anyone else have the Neil Young song stuck in their head now? I hope at least one of you does because I am naming this post after that song. When I first started blogging, I would always try and come up with catchy titles for my blog posts usually after songs. So I decided, why the hell not do it again, seems better than my usual “white puffy blouse and denim” title that I will probably go back to after this.
These photos are some of my favorites yet. Despite the fact it was a really rainy, overcast, gross typical Oregon spring day. Covering my hair under my coat to make sure we could at least capture a few shots was so worth it. It was fun to run around barefoot on the beach in the rain. It felt a little risky because I still had more outfits I wanted to shoot and freeing to run, spin and let my hair go a bit. Definitely a little different than some of my outfit posts lately.
Also, I know I do wear variations of this outfit a lot…but there’s a reason for it. If I had to live in an outfit the rest of my life, it would most likely be a vintage inspired white or lace top, vintage 501 levis, a wicker bag and my Mari Giudicelli mules. I just feel most like me when I am in this outfit.

Shopbop has been one of my favorite, go-to shops right now! I love how they style the looks, how easy it is to shop, the rewards program they have and also the brands they carry. They make online shopping really fun and easy for me which is why I continue to shop with them and love being a Shopbop Partner!

I really suggest checking out the sale and this is the time to get that investment piece you’ve been eyeing.

Are you tired of seeing this bag or top yet?! I hope not. haha! 
I can’t stop wearing either of then, they’re just too perfect for Spring! I’m also loving these fun shoes from the WhoWhatWear collection at Target. Such a great price and I was really happy about the quality of them as well. They’re so chic too which can be tough to find when it comes to really affordable brands sometimes.

Florals for Winter and Spring!

It seemed like it was just the other day in Portland, that the sun was shining and the flowers were starting to bloom. I was really thinking that Spring was well on it’s way until this past week hit. Portland got hit with snow two days in a row and my dreams of warmer days started to diminish. But I had been so inspired by the thought of spring and started to slowly collect pieces for my spring wardrobe! Florals for spring are always a good idea I think, no matter how over done they are. I think wearing darker florals are perfect for winter and transitioning into spring. I paired this top with darker denim to give it a more winter feel but this top could easily be paired with white or lighter denim for Spring too.
Basket bags have been a go to of mine for the past few years and still are! My mom and I were in Tacoma last weekend and she found this while we were thrifting! I think it’s so cute and perfect for upcoming looks! I can’t wait to wear it more 🙂

Ready For Spring

We have been having the most beautiful weather here in Portland the past couple of days. Today was gorgeous and sunny and really felt like Spring was already here. It might be a little bit of wishful thinking on my part….I even ended up getting an iced latte! haha
Transitioning from Winter to Spring as well as Summer to Fall can be kind of tricky. It’s difficult to decide what to wear and what’s weather appropriate. After lots of outfits and trying to figure out the secret to how to dress this time of year…I have learned just to wing it. Wear what you want, when you want. Layer if it’s cold! And that’s just what I decided to do with this look! When I saw this top on Shopbop, I immediately fell in love with it. And despite the fact that it looked like a more Spring appropriate top, I got it anyway and made it work for this time of year. The cutout details and the vintage look, I think it’s a top I will have in my closet for years to come. 
Zimmermann is quickly becoming one of my new favorite dream brands and I was so excited to finally have a piece of my own. 
Anyways, are you guys all looking forward to more sunshine filled days? Even though I loved binge watching shows, burning too many candles to count, and snuggling up with my pup in our apartment…I can’t wait to get outside again and get inspired again. I’m so ready for Spring!

Here are some of my favorites from Shopbop to get you excited for your Spring Wardrobe!
