The scent of roses and raspberry leaves







Outfit Details:
on a sheer day top - c/o ModCloth
shorts and wedges - c/o Joie
Mid-City Tote in Poppy - c/o Foley + Corinna
lip color - Laura Mercier lip stain in Hibiscus
glasses - Ray-Ban

Big thanks to my little sister, Tessa Marie (or Cheech, Monchichi, Chichi, Goose, Little One - I have so many nicknames for her) for taking these photos, as we were on our way back from getting our nails done. I rarely ever get my nails done, and I've literally had two or three pedicures in my life, which drives my mom nuts. I'm also extremely impatient and put my shoes on too soon, so I managed to ruin my toes before I even stepped out of the salon. Tessa must take after me, because the day she gets her nails done, she starts chipping it off. Like sister, like sister!

Very cute, I adore your quirky/trendy style :o) So much personality :)

Rebecca said...

The color on your nails/bag is just gorgeous! I might have to run out after work and try to find that same shade. My nails are terribly chipped at the moment. I should be embarrassed, but, ya know.

you're nail color and vintage shirt are to die for.

I am attracted to anything and everything with a rose floral on it, maybe because there's a rose in my name? But this is right up my alley.

That floral print is beautiful,but was the shirt`s shape what make me fall in love.I`ve seen many floral shirts & they weren`t really my thing, but this one is classy. The shoes seems very comfortable for summer heat.

grrfeisty said...

i love the photos that you can see the sun shining behind you :)
i, too, dislike getting my nails done...but i really want to get a pedicure soon...

Caitie said...

cute outfit for a mani pedi day! I always get ancy/impatient too while waiting for my nails to dry (and my mom). As much as I love getting pampered I can't stand sitting for so long!

Love that top! Florals are my weakness for sure. Perfect for summer strolls through the city!

very simple and chic

vonilicious said...

Your sister did a great job. This is why I'd rather do my nails and toes myself. I always manage to mess things up AND I like to change things up too often.

Chloe said...

Ooohhh, I just love this! Florals make me happy. :)
