Bright & Colorful

Top - vintage (from local boutique), Skirt - J Crew, Bag - Rebecca Minkoff Morning After Mini, Necklaces - Smart Set and H&M, Bangles - Vince Camuto (gifted by Envy) and Joe Fresh, Sunnies - Ray Ban, Shoes - Oasis via ASOS, Nail - OPI Strawberry Margarita 

My closet isn't really full of color. I love color, but I tend to be be most comfortable in neutrals. I don't know what happened to me that day, but I just wanted to wear something bright and fun. It kind of makes me feel like I'm on vacation! Sadly, I'm not on vacation so I'm doing my best to soak up the sun as much as I can on the weekends! What are your favorite outside summer activities? I just got a bike (a lovely hand-me-down) and the boy and I are trying to get some tennis in here and there. I'm making it my summer goal to go kayaking a few times and hiking.

Hope your weekend was great and I'm wishing you all a good week!

  3. You look fabulous in color - the red and pool (that's what we call that color at work) look so good together. I have a similar color combo in my living room with dark brown accents - kind of makes me think Moroccan. Your red pumps are gorgeous too. As far as Summer activities, my husband and I like to go biking too. There are tons of amazing bike paths here in town - Portland is crazy bike friendly.

    Happy Monday!
