Honey & Lemon

I finally have the chance to show all of you my new blouse and collar necklace from Romwe! The sheer yellow & floral of this top work together so well, I can already see myself wearing it all through the summer. As for the collar, I'm in love. I don't know if I'll ever be able to take it off...it's just too perfect for life. After getting this piece, I'm left craving even more faux collars!

These photos are from a few weeks back when I was on the verge of collapse due to the stress and exhaustion I endured because of finals work, thus the tired/frazzled face.

My favorite part about this piece is the rose detailing in the very center; it's so eclectic and meshes with my style perfectly!

I realize that I haven't written about anything other than my clothing lately, which is totally lame! While I do love showcasing my personal style, I love letting all of you know what's actually going on in my current life. I'm going to try and do exactly that from now on.

This past week has been so wonderful in so many different ways. New friendships have bloomed, adventures have begun and I'm excited to experience a truly memorable summer. I've spent almost every day off work outdoors lounging at the beach, hiking through the hills of my county, skimming the farmers market or exploring the streets of San Francisco. My favorite activity so far has been hiking! I'm a nature fanatic, so being able to trek out and enjoy the wilderness has been great. I've hiked about 25 miles this past week and I already have plans to go out next week to another trail. I'll post some photos from my hikes on here when I get the chance, the spots I've been trekking are absolutely beautiful.

I hope all of you have a phenomenal weekend, thank you for reading!

Persian Prints

These rad shorts were gifted to me from Koshka. The earthy colors and loud print grabbed my attention right away and I knew I needed them in my wardrobe. So, here they are! To balance out the print, I decided to pair the shorts with simple solid pieces, though I used lots of bright jewelry to provide more of an eclectic feeling.

Thankfully I have the day off today, which I've spent indoors reading, drinking coffee and cuddling with my sweet honeychild Jack. The rain is beating against my window (wait, it's June? Oh. Okay.) while I'm bundled in tons of blankets, candles burning illuminating my room. I couldn't have had a better day of relaxation.

My watch collection has been growing these past few months, bringing me up to three lovely pieces. This La Mer is the newest of the few, which I'm really excited to wear all throughout the summer. I love the combination of the wrap and bright yellow!

I hope all of you are doing well! I'm receding back under my covers for now, as I hiked almost 11 miles the other day, which has left me on the verge of tears due to seriously sore muscles. I'll be hiking quite a bit tomorrow as well, so I'm definitely in need of some downtime!

I'm back!

Oh. My. Goodness. Life has been so overwhelming these past few weeks, I can't even begin to describe it! My little hiatus is a result of so many things which are all beginning to calm down, thankfully. I do still have a very large work load, though in general I'm definitely in a better headspace than I was a few weeks back. The fact that it's FINALLY summer is relieving as well. There are so many plans for beach days, hikes, camping and road trips. I'm so stoked for the next few months, I know they're going to be absolutely amazing. You can consider this the end of my blogging break, thanks for patiently waiting for new posts everyone!

In other news, I totally scored a 4.0 for spring semester! My hard work and hair ripping definitely paid off. 

This outfit is a lot more "safe" then I'm used to, though the bright pops of color help to balance out the simpleness.
