Simplicity

{ Peplum Top: Babaton via Aritzia // Distressed Skinny Jeans: Gap // Shoes: BCBGirls (old) // Wallet: Vince Camuto // Sunglasses: House of Harlow 1960 // Necklace: H&M (very similar) }

I love the understated yet chic simplicity of jeans and a white tee. It's a look that always works, what's not to love?

Return of the Skort

{ Denim Jacket: H&M (worn here & here) // Blouse: J. Crew // Skort: Zara // Shoes: BCBGirls (old) // Wallet: Vince Camuto (similar, won from O My Heart!) // Sunglasses: Prada // Jewelry: Forever 21 earrings; DIY bracelet; BCBG Max Azria ring }

I haven't worn a skort (shorts + skirt) since middle school and honestly thought I'd never wear them again. I also felt the same way about leggings but now I can't imagine life without them. So here I am wearing a skort again, which I am completely in love with. Other things making me happy? The fact that my shirt serendipitously matches the magnolia tree in these photos and that today is my birthday! I have the day off and will be spending it with my husband. Not sure what he has planned but I'll find out soon!

An outfit with sparkle is sure to be a crowd pleaser, so pull out the sequins and diamonds! I chose to put together something a little different and went for an ensemble with pants instead of a dress.
