FLOWERS IN THE PARK

A few photos from this past Saturday when I went to The Smoke Joint. Strolled through a little park and snapped some shots of the pretty flowers in the garden. Cannot wait until everything is bloomed and the sun is always out! Looking forward to the nice weather this coming weekend (hoping that the forecast is right). On that same note, I cannot wait for Friday to be here. It will be spent heading back home for Easter. So excited to spend time with family and friends for the weekend. Now, all I have to do is keep busy so the rest of the week flies by!

Well, Monday came too fast and my weekend at home ended quickly. It felt good to be back at my parent's house, and it's still such a crazy feeling that I have packed up and moved away. My Saturday was spent shopping with my mom, just like old times. Thrifted some amazing things I cannot wait to share with you all! Saturday night I enjoyed some Mexican food and margaritas with my brother, sister-in-law, and the parentals. I am told that you cannot get good Mexican food here in the city, so I had to get my fix at my favorite place
back home.

Sunday afternoon I was reunited with my best friend Marcy. We went to Baltimore Coffee where we enjoyed a 'cup of joe', and I stocked up with some blueberry coffee to bring back with me. Cannot live without their coffee! It gets me started every single morning. I am sure you have heard me talk about their coffee plenty of times before on here. The sun finally came out, and it was perfect weather for Baker Park. Broke out this floral blazer for the day, and I blended right in with the pink flowers that are blossoming. It was a great first weekend back since moving. Excited to go back in less than two weeks for Easter!

P.S. - We acted like little kids and played on the swings. Felt like I was back in middle school!

CASUAL FRIDAY

(American Apparel cardigan, H&M shirt, DKNY leggings, Nine West boots- similar, vintage bag, Michael Kors watch, necklace from Nordstrom Rack, random bracelets and ring)

I totally (and proudly) soaked in the term 'casual Friday' today and went for a comfortable and relaxed outfit. It was definitely one of those mornings where I didn't have enough energy and just wanted something easy to wear. I am so excited for the weekend that is already here! Tonight will be a night spent in with my roommate, enjoying wine and pizza. Who else loves Trader Joe's Wine Shop as much as I do? After working all week, there's nothing I would rather do than relax at home. Plus, gotta prepare for Saint Patrick's Day tomorrow! Cannot wait to enjoy the Irish holiday here in the city and possibly partake in the crazy festivities they have going on. All I know is that Guinness cupcakes will be happening.

Happy (early) St. Patty's Day!

HOMETOWN FAVORITE

(Trouvé chambray shirt- similar, jacket from Wet Seal, DKNY leggings, INC International booties from Macy's, vintage Timex watch, gifted rings, other random and thrifted jewelry)

Today has been a comfortable and relaxing Tuesday afternoon. I am spending it at a local coffee shop that is located in an old church, as you can see. Probably one of my favorite places in my hometown. I am a lover of their spiced chai. Today I opted for a frozen one because of the warm weather we have been given. Why does it already feel like spring? To be completely honest, I am still waiting for a snow blizzard. Not so sure if I am quite ready to say goodbye to my winter wardrobe.

On a brighter note, only one week until I am in the great city of New York! So excited for all the fun fashion week will bring and to catch up with friends. Woo hoo!
