WEEKEND STYLE: CASUAL & BRIGHT

Hope you all had a great weekend. We tried(emphasizing a lot on the word "tried") to clean up our guest bedroom although its totally not in a state to accommodate any guest at this point, did some furniture shopping(yay!!), had an awesome brunch (pancakes, hash browns, waffles, the whole shebang) outside after a long time(last was in port angeles during our trip to Olympic national park, read more about that here), and did a movie night.
Today's outfit is perfect for all the activities i mentioned above, for a casual day out shopping, or sunday brunching, or to the movies, but definitely not for cleaning up your guest room aka store room;) Sun is still blessing us around here, but it does get cold sometimes, especially at night. So opting for something bright and colorful(its still summer y'all), and adding jeans and closed peep-toe shoes(to battle the chill) are just perfect for these inconsistent weather days.
And don't forget to carry a big tote bag to keep a scarf and/or cardigan so that you can cover up when its gets cold. The tote bag is a gift i bought for myself the day i cleared the driver's test and got my license after moving here, it was one of my proudest moments last year, so i felt like i deserved a small gift for myself as a pat on the back. The bright yellow top is a b'day gift from my cousin more than 4 years ago(can time fly any faster?), its a personal favorite. Have a good week everyone, and hope you all have a special moment so that you can guilt-freely indulge in some shopping for yourself! xo, Hems.
