Hello!
I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend! Can someone please tell me why it's July and I'm back in tights? It even rained today. I'm so confused! The sky doesn't start clearing up until 3 or 4 in the afternoon nowadays. June's over and so should the June gloom. Please Summer, I want my sunshine and my tan! I feel as if Mother Nature sent out the wrong weather to the West and East Coasts.

I'm sorry again for not posting and not being able to visit your blogs. I even missed my Sunday Inspiration post! It's been a hectic and emotional couple of days, and I'm relieved they're behind me. But since I am now working 4 or 5 days a week, I'm not really sure how I'm going to be able to blog as often as before. I have a hideous work uniform and after work, I'm not really up for dressing up. Don't worry though! I'll find a way, just give me some time to adjust because I love blogging and have felt so weird without it.
I know I'm a little late on the chambray trend, but I finally found my chambray skirt at J Crew when they were having a huge sale. I remember seeing this skirt months ago and have been stalking it in the store. I'm so glad I waited. My skirt collection has grown quite a bit in the past few months, and I have another one on the way from the Hautelook American Apparel sale. I also finally found my red bow on Etsy! I think red bows go with any and every outfit and I think I want to collect a few more. So many popped up on Etsy during Fourth of July weekend and I hope they're still there for my taking!
The UPS truck just came by and delivered my wicker basket! I can't wait for the bell to arrive in a few days too! I'm not sure how I'm going to paint it mint green yet. Doing it myself seems so tedious since I have to take it apart and then put it back together, so I think I'll just have to search for a cheap place to do it.
Oh also, I've been featured in Style Sample Magazine, check it out here!
Until next post,
Jasmine

You look super cute in that red bow of yours! I wish I could pull off bows the same way. My hair is limp and they just slide off. And yay for the wicker basket! Can't wait to see what your bike will look like after it's makeover!
ReplyDeleteI found this funny since your post appeared above one that said "Hotter than July.." in my subscriptions, hehe. :D
ReplyDeleteAnyway, you look so cute, I love the pops of red! I think it would be nice to be able to wear tights, especially black ones.. I just got three colorful pairs for my birthday and I'm dying to wear them!! You look most adorable as always. :D
this weather is so not cool. i don't like it at all!! it's july for pete's sake!!!
ReplyDeletei think your outfit is perfect for the gloomy weather! i hope it picks up there though. it's been really hot here. anyway, i cant wait to see your new revamped bike! :D

Aww I hope the weather improves! In SF it's always foggy in the summer so I'm not surprised. Yay cute chambray skirt and red bow! At least more working hours means more money! Haha you have to fight the temptation to shop online and save your money for big-priced items!
ReplyDeleteOh I forgot, congratulations on the feature! That's super awesome :)
ReplyDeletewonderful outfit, supercute!!! i loove your shoes!!! xoxo
ReplyDeletei love love love love love the gray with the chambray! :) i hope you're doing alright and all your hours of work and classes aren't taking up all of your time during the summer!
ReplyDeletei'm actually craving your kind of weather right now because there's some kind of heat wave going on in jersey! it's in the 100s and photoshoots involve LOTS and LOTS of sweat.
so jealous of your weather! it's been 95 degrees + humidity since Sunday and it's not stopping forever! love the shoes, the belt, the bow, the skirt and the colors! :D
ReplyDeleteThe weather all over the world is soo weird lately hun, its winter her and its freezing the one day and the next its quite hot?
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous in your bow, hope your ok and you dont work too hard : ) xxx
Ooh I love this take on the chambray trend -- it's quite unusual! But the muted colors definitely work. And I love the splashes of red (congrats on your red bow, btw). :D
ReplyDeleteAnd I can't wait to see all the additions to your bike! <3
Super cute outfit! Love the bow especially!
ReplyDeleteI love how you matched the red belt with the red bow and I love the chambray skirt, dw, I'm even slower than you on the trend, I don't even own anything chambray yet and It's too cold here to wear it.
ReplyDeleteYou're so cute! I love the blog :]
ReplyDeleteCheck out mine, if you have the time.
Petite Amelie!
what an adorable outfit! boo to working 5 days a week... i'll be starting a summer course next week too so I know what you mean. Down here in texas we've been having nothing but TOO MUCH SUNSHINE (over 100F argh). I would rather be wearing tights and coats!

ReplyDeletegreat outfit love the bow and skirt.
I know what you mean!! today I'm wearing thick knitted tights and a scarf!!! the weather is so weird here lately! You look so cute! I think I've said this before, but I really liiikkkkeeee those shoes ^.^
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable outfit! I really love that chambray skirt! The weather in New York has been RIDICULOUS. There's been a major heat wave and it's been over a hundred degrees the past few days!
ReplyDeleteSo cute & I wouldn't mind winter in July at all! :)
ReplyDeletepolish summer seems to be uncooperative as well!
ReplyDeleteyou look so adorable! your flats are so cute! love the print on it!
That skirt is so perfect for summer! I am in need of a chambray skirt as well.
ReplyDeleteYou can take Sacramento's weather! It's been in the 90s forever! So hot.
Can't wait to see your newly remodeled bike :)

ReplyDeleteYou're wearing tights? WTH? I wish I could wear tights here:( Anyway, I hope you're feeling better now. Glad to hear about the increase in pay and I can't wait to see that skirt you got from HauteLook :)
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about sending your package to me :) As long as you mark it as a "gift", I should be exempted from custom duties and taxes ;) Send it away and I'll be waiting <3 <3

You're so beautiful girl. One day, we'll get to chill in California and I'm hoping that your California days brighten up a little! I hate overcast days so much... it's been overcast and muggy here and everyday, I look like I just got out of a sauna. Not pretty.
ReplyDeleteYour chambray skirt is gorgeous and I especially love those floral flats. I'm also excited to follow you on your 21 for 21 challenge. Maybe I should get on the awesome horse and follow suit since I'm also kind of on a shopping hiatus.
Hope everything is a thousand times better and all the emotional turmoil is behind you.
