Hello!
I have been living in my newest striped top ever since I got it last week. I need more bright striped tops--they're just so much more fun than my usual white, black and navy stripes, especially now that it's nearing Summer! I know I normally wear color, but I'm starting to embrace the really bright ones! Give me some yellows! I have also been living in these new sandals of mine. I love how they're almost flats, but not quite. They were the last pair in the store, and my mom didn't say they were something my grandma would wear--so naturally I had to get them. They're super comfy and put back some of my faith back into Zara. Is it just me or did Zara suddenly get really expensive but now have less quality clothes?

Now that it's Summer break off of school, my style has become really relaxed lately. I haven't worn a bow in my hair for about two weeks now. I've been getting pretty lazy when it comes to dressing and blogging actually. Last week I only took outfit pictures once, and it was for an upcoming guest post for a dear friend. Meanwhile I've been living in my black shorts, loose t-shirts, these sandals, and high messy pony-tails. I need to find some nice simple sleeved, sundresses to get out of this rut...Of course when I'm on a shopping ban, I suddenly want/need so many things.

Until next post,
Jasmine

  1. I need to get some t-shirts like yours, all I have is black and navy, and one red but it's too tight and I want ones loose like yours :)

    Zara is getting really much more pricey than a couple years ago but I have to say if you look for it there are great quality stuff there, that said, I love your shoes!!

  2. STRIPES! YES! Can I just say that you match with the little blue car in the background? :) So cute! I also adore the little belt (with a bow, of course!) and those Zara sandals are still my absolute fave. I think I should petition for them to make shoes for small footed people like me. What do you think? ;)

    P.S. I miss doing my hair in ponytails and buns, it's much too short to do that now. Darn.

  6. You wear your hair up in a ponytail?! Show us!! :D well there's nothing wrong with dressing for comfort...especially if you're wearing pieces you love! And wow, I can't believe those sandals are Zara - and that they're comfy! I haven't had luck with their shoes because I think they are a PAIN.

    I ought to get bright stripey shirts too, they are so great! (:

  7. LOVE those shoes! though i've always felt that Zara is a more expensive H&M, and though the quality may be slightly better, I will always vote for H&M's prices and decent quality

  9. Jasmine, those sandals are oh so pretty! I love them! And the way you styled them up is lovely too. I definitely don't think you're in a style rut, you look so cute in these photos!

  10. I love your neon/fluorescent striped top! I think I saw a bright yellow striped one at H&M if you're looking for yellow shirts. Haha don't worry, I'm always pretty lazy during the summer with my outfits, even though it's still cold here.
