booking it

F21 sweater, LNA Slant skirt

Let's just say I have two new favorite places in Seattle, the library and Sweet Iron waffles! The Seattle Library is ten floors and the some of the most amazing architecture in the city. Julie and I had a blast shooting photos between the shelves of the silent library, but outside was noisy with the hustle and bustle of the city.

Sweet Iron waffles deserve their own paragraph. We both got the banana brûlée waffle, and it was beyond expectations! Caramel sauce, creamy bananas, crispy sugar bits under a dollop of whipped cream...dah. I almost ordered another one to go.


Anyway, this skirt was one thing I ordered when I saw it on sale at Shopbop, and I have tried to work it into as many outfits as possible during the week. You guys know much I love comfortable clothing, and this is the softest material around. Perfectly breathable, it makes black wearable for summer! And I love the asymmetrical hem.

  25. I love the F21 sweater! Especially because I've been on a light pink obsession since spring started.. Not sure if it's every going away. ^^;

    You're so lucky you caught a sale on Shopbop. I tend to stay away because I'd want to many things outside of my shopping budget. >.<

    Thanks for the heads up about Sweet Iron Waffles. I def. need to try it. Know of any good french toast places in Seattle? All the restaurants I go to fry their french toast.. it's so weird!

  40. Waffles, books, and a good time? Yes please. I wish my library photo shoot looked as good as yours (university library = way less light). That waffle looks tasty and is making me want to drive up to Washington to eat it. Lastly, I'm a little jealous of how you can wear a drapey shirt and long skirt without looking silly (as in, I look ridiculous, you look great).

    ReplyDelete

  41. Ahh, seeing your library pictures just reminded me how much I love the library and how I haven't been to one in ages! Also, the architecture of those buildings is amazing. Those waffles are mouth-watering! yumm yumm! Love your outfit too! I saw that sweater at F21 and really loved the texture of it and it looks really lovely with you maxi skirt! =)
