On me - Dress: Gap; Top: Forever 21 (similar 1, similar 2); Belt: H&M; Shoes: ShoeDazzle; Sunglasses: Ray-Bans
On Ben - Top: Old (similar); Shorts: H&M; Shoes: Sperry Topsider
When the weather spikes to 80 degrees here, it's always time for some after-work park picnicking. Ben picked me up from work in this ensemble, pictured above, and I was shocked to see him entering the world of pattern mixing (on his own). Without my guidance, he'd also paired it with ankle socks and athletic shoes with a hole in the toe. So close...
Once I'd had him change into his sperrys, we enjoyed some appetizers and macarons in the park and soaked up some afternoon sun before sleepily heading back inside. It has been a long week and it's only Wednesday morning. What gives? Hope you're all getting through this week with more ease and, well, joy, than I am!
great dress on u and LOVE those shoes!
