Turning Green





(Dress: Free People, Shoes: UO, Hat: Italy)

Oh man, guys, this dress is one of my favorite things ever right now. I absolutely adore the pattern on the skirt, and the crochet top! Free People, you've done it again. The dress I've been dreaming of that can be dressed up or down perfectly is right here. I feel like a dress that you feel pretty in, and also super comfortable in is something every girl should have. I've gotta thank Marshall's for mine! 
It's a given these days that my Mary Jane's accompany most outfits, and this was no exception. They're seriously the best summer shoes. I originally got them for Costa Rica (since I needed closed toe shoes) but I've been wearing them non stop here as well. Long story short, PLEASE go pick up a pair from UO. You won't be sorry, I promise.

I'm so so sorry for the lack of posts recently, things have been crazy! I'm off to Costa Rica for a month long volunteer trip this Sunday, so this week has been pretty much been me frantically trying to get ready.

(Dress: Vintage, Hat & Sandals: Free People, Purse: Italy)

There are few things I love more than a good vintage dress. This one I especially love since it's both denim and floral! It was originally floor length, but I knew I'd wear it more often as a mini, so I made it shorter. I broke out my old huarache sandals from last summer today as well, I thought they paired well with the dress. 
I hope everyone enjoyed Father's day! I spent mine down at the beach with my family and had a wonderful time. 

As for me, I'll be busy packing and getting ready for my trip to Costa Rica all week! Plus my little brother graduates from high school this Tuesday. Busy busy busy, but I'll be sure to post as often as I can!

I've been really into making dreamcatchers and other crafty things lately. 

My adorable new Mary Jane's!


Throwback to my favorite concert ever, I'm right in the front! 


The weather the past few days has really been pretty awful, so I have no new outfit posts for ya :( So I figured I'd try something different, and post a few recent Instagram photos.

I'm planning to take outfit photos tomorrow, so check back for that post :) 

While I'm Alive







(Hat & Necklace: Free People, Top & Shoes: UO, Shorts: DIY thrifted) 

This is just a casual outfit I like to put on throughout summer! I was surprised at myself that I wanted to pair navy and rasberry together, but I like it! Sort of a muted patriotic combo I think. This top from Urban has been my favorite lately. It's super soft and comfy. Simple, but just what ya need during the summer. 
I attempted a jumping photo for these shoes, since I love them so much but as you can see, the focus didn't feel like cooperating much. This shoes, though. They're insanely comfortable! Mary Jane's will always be absolutely adorable in my mind, so I was glad to finally get these. I'm sure I'll be wearing them all summer long! 

Hope ya'll enjoy my awkward outtakes below. Figured I'd add some in since pretty much 95% of the photos I take for this blog are like the one's ya see here... and the 5% are the ones that normally make the cut haha.
