Outfit: West Coast Road Trip

I'm back! Back from vacation and hopefully back to blogging regularly.

We had such a great time! We drove from Southern California (with our dog) to Portland OR where we spent a few days with our brother in law, to Port Orchard WA where we stayed with my husband's parents for a week and then to Ladysmith BC Canada to spend almost a week at my parents' place! It was a lot of traveling but I'm glad we were able to fit so much in.

I definitely want to share some travel related posts including one on eating vegan but first here's a glimpse at what I wore!

Here's a look at what I packed. I swear my planning out outfits! I knew as I was going it that I was over packing but since we were driving and I had a lot of space, I decided it was fine. Not everything got worn multiple times but it gave me a very clear idea of how I could have packed if I'd needed to minimize space! 

Purchases I made the day before I left haha

Outfit: Just Another Day in Paradise

I love casual fashion so it makes me pretty happy that sweatshirts are a big trend right now. This Old Navy one is really soft and lightweight, making it great for this time of the year. I sized down for a more fitted look.  Oh and these shoes? I wear them a ton. They solve that dilemma of should I wear black, cream or brown shoes with this outfit. ;)

Outfit: Linen Pants

I went out of my style bubble when I bought these pants!  Meaning, they are different from anything else in my wardrobe and not my usual look!  I was shopping with some friends and all three of us decided to not only try them on but also buy them (they went with white while I went with tan). I hadn't worn wide leg pants in so long that I was afraid I'd be a bit stumped on what to pair them with but actually, it's not that challenging. They have such a laid back, casual vibe. I decided to go with a simple black tank here and add some fun accessories.

Have you bought something outside of your "style bubble" lately?
