Summertime Sunblock

I've gone through plenty of phases, both cute and definitely the ones that could have been avoidable. You know which ones I'm talking about...the times when I wanted to be goth/scene but was still weirdly afraid of going into hot topic because these people had strange piercings and I didn't, yet somehow my mom was all about it. She's a people person so of course she became besties with people with holes in their ears (which I luckily never wanted).

Anyway, being that it's summer, I'm into the hat phase. Both baseball and floppy. If you're a girl, you know that pictures at the beach during sunset make the world go round. Luckily, my mother blessed her daughters with having artsy genes just like her. It would be a real bore, let me tell you, if my sister and I had completely opposite interests. So yes, I'm HASHTAG BLESSED that my sister and I are similar (maybe because I have a weird fascination of wanting to be just like her? #LittleSisterSyndrome).



Hat: J.Crew
Dress: H&M
Sunnies: Franchesca's



Get your hat phase on and get like me (minus really awkward sun burn)

"In a relationship with glasses"

Have you seen these bad boys? I mean, I made them as big as possible so you can see these beauts c/o Warby Parker. Who needs a boyfriend when you can spend your money on some hot specs. Really. If you've seen my not-so-fashion-fashion-posts then you'd know my style is equivalent to a typical city-goer: ALL BLACK EVERYTHING. Granted it's the greatest color on every living creature so it makes sense that my closet is only filled with it. 
(Can't forget about the striped [navy] shirts, too!)

Hold up. So I was told that WP lets you snuggle with potential matches for FIVE days before parting your ways like a melodramatic Sparks' movie? YES. *It truly is better than any dating site matches*

Since spring is on the way (when I say holla, you say back), I figured it's time for me to whip out the "colorful" things that have been shoved to the back of my closet and/or drawers. I'm not one for obnoxious colors, but when it comes in small sizes [and cute packages], I am so down. Quimby, the glasses above that I am ever so swooning over, comes in Absinthe, too! I love a good deep green to keep me happy (i.e money, too!).

BOOM. Behold the glory. Aren't you just totally willing to change your Facebook status now to "In a relationship with a great pair of glasses from Warby Parker"? It's fine, I really wouldn't judge because I'd be likely to do the same. I love how these glasses instantly gave me the exact type of outfit I would want to wear with them. So *coughs*, it's going down (I'm yelling timber!...get it, cause a tree is green...?)
Jeans [Madewell], Tank [Forever21], Coat [Forever 21]Sandals [J.Crew].
I'm honestly the biggest fan of larger and in charge coats that are bigger than I am, even though I'm beyond tiny.

Now you understand my love for the #Spring2014 collection (they obvi also have regular glasses like the Kimball), meet the limited edition gang! They are quite friendly, artsy, and outdoorsy so make sure to show them some lovin, too! Ya know since it's spring and we can't wait to pull out our plaid flannel blankets and chill under a tree at the local park jamming to some Norah Jones and Sinatra.

Only me? Shit..

I'm pretty sure if Audrey Hepburn was alive today, she'd be rocking them Wheelers. The trendy/hipster Audrey, of course. I wish I actually needed glasses because I'd be buying the Preston; super wayfarer-esq. If you are actually the hipster artsy instagrammer #notmainstream like you say, then you'd be happy to know that no two pairs are alike.

Marcell glasses? Anyone want to punch me in the face and maybe try to disrupt my normal eye site so I can rock these? Anything with tortoise shell is a friend of mine. 
I JUST WANT TO BE REALLY HIP OKAY?

So someone buy me a pair, we can work out a compromise.

Make today a great one, lovelys [aka buying glasses from Warby Parker (for you or your beau) because every pair they sell they give a pair to someone in need. Did that guilt you as much as those really sad commercials with Sarah McLachlans depressing voice? Good.]

I was not compensated for this post. All opinions are my own.
