Relaxing Near the Sun

Lately it’s been ridiculously hot outside. I find it sort of annoying sometimes (especially when all I have to do is walk to my mailbox and back to my front door to break a sweat). Yet, I also find that there is a subtle beauty to the warmth on the average summer day.
I like it when I’m in the shade at the hottest time of the day and I can still feel the warmth around me. It’s great to just relax near the sun. I’m going to miss days like this when school starts.

Summer

Floral Charlotte Russe dress, White Nine West heels

I don’t know if anyone has noticed, but these heels are my favorite! I tend to wear them a lot.

My summer vacation, unfortunately, is nearing its end. Soon I’ll have to worry about dress code when I get ready in the morning for school and morning humidity for my hair! Even so, I found that this summer has been enjoyable despite the fact that it has gone so quickly (I feel like it just started!). I’m trying to make the most out of each moment that I have left of my vacation and have as much fun as possible!

I also hope everyone is having a great Summer so far!

The Discovery



The reason why I have decided to post artwork on my blog is because I find art to be interesting and a wonderful form of expression.

So, as promised, this is the beginning of me posting art. These particular pieces were created by Carne Griffiths.

I love Carne’s work because each piece is so magical and touching. I personally applaud him on how he linked people with nature. I feel like most people forget about us even being apart of nature when in the end, it’s all around us and we affect one another more than any of us care to admit.

His artwork is like a surreal truth. I love artwork that makes me think! Check out his other pieces if you’re interested!

A Note of Casual Elegance

Thrifted knit dress, Lei shoes, heart charm bracelet, inherited diamond earrings


I have decided that I will start putting artwork on my blog. So please do not be surprised when I start posting various pieces of art in the near future!

As for this outfit that I wore yesterday, I had found it to be something more fitting for the beach or somewhere relaxing and casual. The dress itself is casual and simple, the design, material, and even pattern is nothing flashy. However, I love this dress because it has a subtle elegance to it.

The only thing that I find difficult about this dress is trying not to overdo the accessorizing. Seeing as how I am so petite and the dress itself is so expressive and long-it’s easy to get carried away. My hair, on this day, was put up so that my massive curls wouldn’t take away from the garment. I wore my grandmother’s earrings that I inherited along with a bracelet that I received as a gift.

Like A Tea Tray in the Sky

"Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Bat
How I wonder what you're at
Up above the world you fly
Like a tea tray in the sky"

Today I wore a very laid back outfit. I’ve also straightened my hair (love doing the messy hair look whenever I do straighten my own hair as you may have noticed). It was sort of spur of the moment but I liked the finished product.

Don’t ask me how but my outfit was inspired by the song “Twinkle Twinkle Little Bat” from Alice in Wonderland. Being inspired never has to make sense, I can't even use words.

What I wore: Moda Spana black heels, Thrift white button down, Thrift black dress pants

Summer Solstice

Thanks to the summer solstice, yesterday was the official first day of summer. All over the world various people celebrated this day in a multitude of way. Some were at the beach with a bonfire, some were dancing, and some were with family and friends with delicious dishes steaming at hand. Did you do anything special on the summer solstice?

What I wore: White Thrift knit sweater, White Nine west heels, White Nike tennis dress
