That skirt is gorgeous, I need one like this in my life!
ReplyDeleteOh, and your legs are looking super tanned. Ya lucky lady ;)
thanks kate! it was our las bike ride and being in the sun for like 12 hours! thank goodness for sunblock!
DeleteI love the skirt and denim jacket! And that bush is beautiful :)
ReplyDeletei know that bush is amazing! i wish it could last forever!
DeleteGorgeous! I love the way your lipstick picks up the orange-red in your skirt. And I also adore those cute thrifted shoes! Super envious of the sunshine :) I think the flowers are called Bourgainvillea or something? I love them - they make me think of holidays (vacations) because they grow a lot in Southern Europe in "holiday places" (for us in the UK) like Greece, Spain and Italy.
ReplyDeletethanks for giving them a name, i wasn't sure what they were called, i would love to plant one of them in our yard!
DeleteYou look gorgeous darling! Head to toe perfection. I wish it would get cold here! I'm dying for some cold weather. I think a trip to the "high country" is going to be in store for us soon.
ReplyDeleteWe have those beautiful pink flowers all over around here. I love them. I like when all the pretty petals dry and they blow around in the wind... very whimsical...
<3
the high country sounds nice, little getaways are always perfect. hope you get to go soon!
DeleteI love the pleats too! And that bush.. yes, totally gorgeous! I want it for my yard! -Rachel
ReplyDeleteLOVe your skirt, its' so so cute! The pink and green background is stunning, wow!
ReplyDeletei love how bright everything is, the green are those icewater succulents and they have brilliant pink flowers too.
DeleteLOVE this skirt! The stripes are just perfect. Great pictures too! I guess the gorgeous bush helps :)
ReplyDeleteyes the bush helps alot! you cant go wrong in front of it!
DeleteLookin' good! I really like your south western color scheme that's in many of your outfites - those are your colors for sure.
ReplyDeleteyes, bright vibrant colors are my thing, i can't get enough of them!
DeleteI love this! I dream of thrifting shoes like that one day and I have a pleats crush right now too- although I agree, not on the pants :) What a great gift that necklace was. I love bougainvillea, they are one of the only flowers that can live up to the summer heat in PHX and I love the pop of color, especially here in the brown desert... Cute pics!
ReplyDeletei was amazed when i found them, i have the hardest time finding shoes in my size and that are cute. it was a good thrifting day for sure.
DeleteI love me a pretty bush.
ReplyDeletethey should call you the dirty bird! hehe
Deletehaha amber took the words right out of my mouth - she's a peach. also, what is cold in california? because it's a million degrees on the east coast! come over! or i'll come there so we can xanadu it up!!! <3
ReplyDeleteshe is a peach! cold here is 60 degrees, that is waaayy to cold for summer, it needs to be in the 70;s all the time, 80's sure, 90's not so much but don't mind it once in a while. yes come and we shall watch xanadu on the big screen!
DeleteHow cute are you!?!?! I love that skirt! You got killer legs there, girlfriend! Work it!
ReplyDeleteI am trying to figure out where to plant a bougainvillea plant/bush like that in my garden. I can't seem to find the right spot because they get big and beautiful like that!
Super cute outfit. Me likey.
thanks kristen, i never new my legs were that great but people keep saying so i better just take the compliment! yes,you need that bush in your garden, it would look so great! no where on a wall? or maybe on the side of the house, you gotta find a place!
Deletelove the cute outfit (& your bike necklace); I adore bougainvillea in all it's colours, it always looks amazing & this one is stunning! I WISH we had the climate to grow it over in the UK, they claim to have created a hardier version, but it never lasts sadly. I relish seeing them when I'm in hot countries :) - & like you usually have my photo taken by them :) xox
ReplyDeletei didn't know they came in other colors! now i want to see them but i am pretty sure all the ones we have here are that brilliant pink. now i am on a mission!
DeleteGorgeous outfit, sweet and I must say I am loving the bright flowery background :) xox
ReplyDeletedag girl, you and i both need to have chat with that darn weather god cos same thing's happening here! garrr, i want a sunny weekend to happen like you can't believe. lets pray!
ReplyDeletewell, i am super smitten with your pretty self and all these fab pics in lieu of blue sky outside. how amazing are the flowers behind you too? wow. i spotted that cute skirt on their website and was wondering when i'd see it on someone i "know"! you rock this look with serious style - cute as can be! xo ♥
