Mixing Textures & Patterns

|Blouse: Abbeline | Jeans: Mango via ASOS| Shoes: Converse| Bag: H&M| Belt: South Moon Under| Scarf: Old Navy| Bracelets: J.Crew, GAP, South Moon Under|

During finals week, I took a trip to Baltimore with Eric and saw the Orioles play. I did my best with the colors (orange & black) and kept it casual and comfortable. I loved this look and definitely will be re-creating it all summer but with jean shorts. What's your favorite go-to easy look?
And oh yeah! I cut my hair! It was definitely much needed as I haven't gotten it cut since last June. It feels nice to have it shorter for summer.

 A delicious dinner last weekend for my grandfather's 90th bday. It's risotto and tuna from an amazing Italian restaurant right outside of Annapolis. 
 Hanging out at the Orioles game earlier in the week.
 Yes, this is what people do to our Testudo statue on campus during finals week. They offer him gifts for good luck.
I got a hair cut!! It feels so nice to have shorter hair in the summer and I am excited to try new styles! If you have any short hair ideas, send them my way!

This weekend is my graduation weekend and I could not be more excited/sad! It's a strange feeling graduating college and going off into the world where you are expected to work a 9-5 and know what you are doing as soon as you graduate. I don't have a job lined up yet, but I am not worried about it. The time will come and there is no need to be stressed, it will just make it worse. So this weekend, I am especially going to take it all in, enjoy my time at school, and hang out with the amazing people who I have had the privilege of meeting here at UMD. Now let's hope I don't cry too much during graduation...I better go get waterproof mascara.

Spring Tweed

Dress: T by Alexander Wang | Jacket: J.Crew | Shoes: ASOS for Nordstrom | Watch: Michael Kors | Bag: Gap | Rings: Ariella Collection 

If feels sooo good to be home. I am relieved to be done with school and back to working and also being within close proximity to a mall again! Safe to say I have made up for lost time. 

I shared this dress on our last weekend post and I love it. It is comfortable and pretty versatile. I have worn it by itself and just with black dv sandals to be casual. Then here I wore it with a tweed jacket and  studded boots for a little more dressed up feeling.
