    bike style : good vibes only

    details
    sweatshirt – Mulberry Press Co.
    shirt – Simplicity on a Saturday Tunic c/o Modcloth
    necklace – Cactus Pendant c/o Moorea Seal
    sunglasses – Lilly c/o Moorea Seal
    leggings – Simple and Sleek Leggings c/o Modcloth
    socks – Happy Socks
    shoes – Wheel and Zeal Sneaker c/o Modcloth
    There are a few things I’m reeeal excited to talk about today. First, let’s start with the big pink elephant in the room – I got a new bike! I’m over the moon to have the opportunity to work with State Bicycle Company, who I purchased my first bike from, on a little project. It’s more than flattering to be noticed by a company that you really really love. I’ll share more information on all this at a later date but in the meantime you can expect lots of photos of this pretty new thing here and on instagram.
    Not quite as exciting as a bright pink new bike but I am really pumped about this outfit. I’m a little late to the leggings as pants party but for some reason the urge hit me earlier this month and I grabbed this pair from Modcloth. I wasn’t sure if I would feel comfortable wearing them out and about but the same day I got them in the mail I actually went ahead and ordered a second pair because they were just that perfect. Also in that first order was this shirt (it’s the same one as I have on under my sweatshirt except all black) I loved it so much I ordered the striped version. I wasn’t looking but I have definitely found my new favorite outfit. This is literally the coziest outfit ever. I just want to own a closet full of these leggings and shirts.

    Hope you’re having a great start to your week!
    xoxo

    Last week Jeff invited to come along with him while he worked on a photography project. We hiked to a waterfall, skateboarded a bit, and visited a community garden. It’s so late in the year that most everything was past it’s prime but there were still a handful of flowers, looking beautiful as ever. I …

    The weekend before last Jeff and I met up with my parents to spend the morning at the county fair.  Jeff had never been to a fair before so I was low key super excited to show him something that was such a big part of my life for so long. I was in 4-H …
