Fashion Friday – Spring Karma
Categories:
Happy Friday Friends!
First things first: yesterday was INCREDIBLE! I’m so happy the Mister and I decided to take the afternoon off. After eating lunch, we headed straight to the metroparks and ended up riding 13.3 miles! And due to my new wheels, I was riding in comfort the whole time! While the exercise was certainly a plus, we were both just so happy to get out of the office, enjoy each other’s company and take advantage of the weather. Sometimes you just have to play hooky 
Unfortunately, our excursion ended on a bit of a sour note — I CANNOT FIND MY CAMERA! Here’s what went down: The Mister and I have super cool bike packs that strap underneath our seats, allowing us to keep our keys/phones/CAMERA/etc. with us while we’re riding. Due to the way my bike is designed, I have to remove my pouch when I put my bike on the Mister’s car bike rack. I distinctly remember taking it off my bike when we were leaving the park (I even brushed it off, since it had gotten a little muddy). I then got in the car and that’s the last time I remember seeing it. Chain of events: the Mister and I stopped at my parents’ house down the street to use the bathroom and get something to drink. Then we went home, took the bikes off the rack and went inside.
So the pouch is either: in the metroparks parking lot (I called the park ranger AND the police — although I’m certain they are more concerned about “the crazy nutty lady” than my camera), my parents’ house (she swears she scoured the place) with a thieve that swiped it when I wasn’t look (doesn’t seem probable, as the Mister and I were always within sight of the car). Anyway, I am NOT A HAPPY CAMPER. I can’t stop thinking about it! I swear, it’s giving me anxiety. So, I am BEGGING YOU — can you please send me some good vibes/karma? Just think positive thoughts for me, OK? In addition to being an awesome camera that I use daily it was also a gift from the Mister (so that makes me feel about 10x more horrible). But let’s see what the power of positive thinking can do, shall we?! I need your good karma! THANK YOU.
So, while I would love to show you my fashion friday photos from my camera — I can’t! You’ll have to settle for my crummy back-up iPhone photos. Don’t hate.
In the mix:
- Blouse: SAKS
- Skirt: SAKS
- Scarf: Handknit by Grandma
Please excuse the horrid lighting!
In the mix:
- Dress: Francesca’s (cute AND affordable stuff!)
- Cardigan: SAKS
- Belt: Anthropologie
- Boots: UGG
The approach I took with both outfits featured this week was to take a spring piece (1st outfit- skirt, second- dress) and pair it with basic, warmer staples (ie – cardigan, leggings, etc). One of my favorite looks is paring a spring dress with a turtle neck or belted cardigan and wearing leggings with boots (ankle boots would be especially cute!). This way you are incorporating some spring-elements, but not looking like you jumped the gun too soon.
What spring fashion are you most looking forward to?
