Local Legend

IMG_8985 IMG_8952 IMG_8950 IMG_8968 IMG_8940 IMG_8953 IMG_8977 IMG_8956Graphic tees are one of the funnest things to style, in my opinion. They bring such spunk and voice to your wardrobe. I have so many graphic tees stored away in my closet and once in awhile I’ll bring them out when I’m feeling edgy. Since I have so many tees, I’m never really on a search for more until I saw this “Local Legend” one. I have no idea what made me want this crop top so much but I would spend hours just thinking about how I just had to have it in my life. I don’t even know if Local Legend is a band name but I had to buy it because it does have somewhat truth in my life. Every single time I go back to my home town I get so much love to my blog everywhere I go, from family, ex co-workers, old friends, but mostly strangers. It’s so much fun. I’m not a legend in no way, shape or form, but I like to pretend I am. A fashion legend.

The thing I love about graphic tees is that they can be paired with just about anything. I love rocking them with a leather jacket because those two are a match made in heaven. I wore my olive/brown shorts for comfort and my favorite Zara heels to keep things elevated. You will definitely see this crop top in the near future. I want to wear it all the time because the material just might be the softest material of all time. (I’m so dramatic.)

See ya later my local legends. Bring out your graphic tees today, they need love too.

With love,

A Pink & Denim Cocktail

IMG_8045IMG_8039 IMG_8075IMG_8052IMG_8046Any kind of cocktail sounds good right about now. (Just a few more months and I can finally enjoy one legally. Hallejua.) Okay, before I get too off track and ramble about alcohol mixtures that I know nothing about, let’s talk about my outfit. I’ve officially brought out my pinks, magentas, and purples. I think April is all about these girly set of colors. It’s that time of the year to love on our floral prints again and rock an eye-catching pink skirt. Why? Because we’re girls, that’s why. There’s something about a floral print on a guy that makes me mumble underneath my breath, “Yesssssss.” The contraction mixed with the masculinity makes most girl swoon. Or maybe it’s just me, I don’t know. It’s like a guy saying, “Hey. I can be sensitive and I like flowers too.” If only I could get Wyatt to wear even the most subtle floral print top. He would throw a fit.

What I love about the month of April is that natures beauty and color comes back alive. I’m all giddy inside knowing that the trees are blooming again. “A fresh beginning” takes a whole new meaning when the flowers and trees say hello to us after months and months of absence. Speaking of fresh beginnings, I possibly have a few new, exciting, and life-changing beginnings this month that involve my work and some other personal things. I only hope and pray that these beginnings challenge me in the best kind of way and help me become the person that I’m meant to be. I already know that there will be a few trial and error moments but I think I can handle a few set backs considering what I’ve been through the past 3 years. I’m more excited/nervous at what’s about to go down in my personal life and I hope someday I can have the courage to share it with all of you. I’ve been vlogging every step so far and even if the video never sees the light of day, I only hope that it has a good ending.
