weekend blogger meet-up!

Thrifted chambray shirt, BDG jeans, Steve Madden boots, Cut 'n Paste bag

Over the weekend, I got to meet up with a lovely Seattle blogger; Julie of Mint and Mellow! We had emailed back and fourth a few times, and I was so excited when we decided to meet up at Yogurtland. As you can see, it was so delicious and so much fun! Julie is super sweet and I am sure we will be seeing more of each other in the future.

I scored this shirt for practically pennies because the hem is defective/uneven, and I was like so what! Julie's shirt also has a fun story behind the purchase (haha) so make sure to check it outWe walked around one of the coolest neighborhoods in Seattle, Capitol Hill. We were so excited to find this amazing wall to take outfit photos in front of! The colors perfectly set off our outfits.

Seattle Fashion Week begins on Thursday, and I am so excited to be working backstage at the shows. I know it will be an awesome experience, and I can't wait to get started and tell you guys aaaaallll about it!
