Rainbow Bright

I wish the weather here in Los Angeles could make up its mind. The last few weeks have followed a trend of starting out warm and sunny and slowly progressing to a much colder, rainy state by the end of the week. It makes dressing in the morning somewhat of a challenge. To add to this dilemma, the weather never seems to be accurate on the "weather app" on my phone, which I often take a quick look at before making the final decision regarding what I am going to wear. If we can build cars that drive themselves, how long will it be until we can accurately predict the weather?

Anyway, earlier this week I decided to wear this midi skirt from J. Crew that I love because I can wear it all year long and despite its busy pattern, it seems to go with everything. I went with stripes because it felt summery and perfect for the weather at the time, although it is now cooling down. It was quite bright out at the time so excuse my "squinty" stare!

  3. What a fun outfit, you are looking great :) Anything stripes for me is great and I love the mix with florals. Actually gotta find myself a tee, because right now I don't have one. Can you imagine?

    Have a nice week!

    1. I have the opposite problem! I have too many striped tees! This one from H&M is great, it has sort of a loose fit that I like. Good luck tracking your perfect tee down!
