In the Mood for a Small Burst of Color

Photography by the Industrious Michael Shriver

Horned rimmed glasses are pretty up and coming so I was lucky to find a pair that actually fit my tiny head. I'll have the thank that 4-year-old for tossing them aside. Unfortunately sunny days are uncommon on a June day in Seattle so it's nice to wear a little burst of color to remind myself of brighter days. These shorts are the perfect for when you just want a little pop of neon and they're amazing for the price. If only they had pockets...

In the Mood for Cherry Blossoms

I bought this skirt closer to the middle of winter and have been waiting for a sunny weekend to finally break it out. The UW Quad is one of the most beautiful places in Seattle during the spring and I thought the colors of the cherry blossoms matched perfectly with this spring outfit. All the chiffon skirts at American Apparel are made beautifully however they are incredibly sheer so I recommend wearing them with tights. Apparently their ash rose color tights are basically as pale as my complexion.

The silk blouse is a favorite piece of mine that I will probably wear for many many outfits to come. I also feel the same way about the necklace which was designed by another local fashion blogger.
