neon yellow

I spotted this neon yellow sweater at work last week and it caught my attention 

*everything at work catches my attention, though*

The color definitely scared me since I haven't seen the sun in a while.  Bright colors and a white skin tone . . .  scary.  But I took the plunge and bought it.  Surprising it doesn't look too totally horrible with my white pale skin.  

Regardless of the neon yellow, the sweater is comfortable and my boyfriend jeans were excited to come out of my closet (it was 60 degrees out last week!)   

Hello Spring Time in Spokane!

guess who is finally back at posting blog posts. . .  This girl right here!

I promise, there will be some consistency at posting more.  I finally gave in and bought a Nikon D 3200, it was on super sale at Target during Black Friday.  I am still practicing with the different angles with my camera on it's tripod. This camera will be a huge reminder to snap pictures of my outfits and all of the gorgeousness in Washington.  

plaid shirts have become an everyday wear on my days offs.  the best ones are found in the target men's department, they are cute, comfy, & warm.  plaid shirts are the best lazy basics.

a fall day in florida

Being home with my family for the past ten days has been amazing & exhausting all at the same time.

When I walked out of the airport, I was hit with the Florida humidity (something that I was getting use to not having around in Washington).  It took a while trying to get use to the hottness, you would think that since I have lived in this weather for 24 years it wouldn't bother me.. Well it does ..

The last day of my vacation home, I woke up to 70 degree weather and hardly any humidity.  I felt like I was back in Washington.  So in honor of it being a fall like day, I decided to dress like one.

lazy day outfit

there is not anything as basic as a pair of boyfriend jeans, a striped tee shirt, & a pair of leopard print flats.  this outfit was worn to shop to pick up new khakis for work, pick up chipotle for lunch, & then to nap.  let me just say, it has the check mark of approval for a lazy day.

summer is starting to fade into fall & I absolutely love it.

a couple of things  about this post: 

1. this is a huge hill in my backyard.  I can't wait until snow falls, it is going to be the perfect sledding hill.

2. it is H  O  T  in Spokane.  it has nothing on Florida H  O  T, but ac units are not in all of the houses & restaurants, so I have been dying of heat.  

3.  I found a hat that fits my over large head, the trick is to shop in the men's department for hats.

my summer will be spent like this.

The past 24 years of my life, summers were always hot, sticky, & sweaty.  North Florida is home to the humidity, so my thought process of getting ready is trying to wear the lightest clothes.

In Washington, I have worn shorts twice this summer.  There is no humidity here, so it's always the perfect summer day.  I have realized that boyfriend jeans, and a cute top are my go to outfits for living in the Northwest.
