Orange you glad to see me?



     Finals done and over with and somehow I managed to get a summer internship within the first week of semester break. I don't know how, but it happened and I couldn't be more grateful. It's a marketing internship for my hometown and I start next week. I definitely did not anticipate getting a job this early on in the season but it saves a lot of time on job searching and jumpstarts my summer! 

        What's fun about this upcoming job is that I'm going to have to invest in business-casual pieces that are fit and wearable for the hot summer. I'm thinking linen trousers, long and loose cotton shorts, and sleeveless button-ups and blouses that are still my style and make me feel cute. A shopping trip is soon to come, along with it a haul and lookbook!



        This look is obviously not business casual- at least with the cropped sweater. I've been wanting to pull out these white Oak + Fort jeans for a while. The weather we're experiencing is lovely- sunny and mild, and these jeans are perfect for running errands while perhaps facing air conditioning indoors but the beautiful sun outdoors. I will definitely wear these to my new job, I think with their colour and cut that they can be dressed up to a level of business casual.

        I wanted to keep this look simple with a splash of colour, and this DIY thrifted Reebok adds the perfect touch. Throw on some Vans and you're good to go.

orange creamsicle


        
      As I said I would in my previous post, I cut this orange creamsicle sweatshirt in half, and now styling it with a 90's vibe. These boots are also from the haul. The amount of photos in this post verges on the line of obnoxious but what can I say, when you're feelin' yourself you're feelin' yourself.

Shroom


There is nothing quite like the implicit romantic ambience that lace bralettes supply. 
This incredibly long tank simply tied into a knot with my most trusted high waisted shorts supplies the best platform for this beige lacy bralette, which is a personal favourite of mine for the spring and summer season.
With the combination of the lovely bralette, delicate layered necklaces, sweet little flats, and of course the whimsical watercolour mushrooms  - 
I felt incredibly ethereal in this outfit.

According to my facial expressions, wearing sporty clothes brings out the bitch in me.
All jokes aside, this casual sporty look is not only incredibly comfy with the easy crop top, loose shorts, and thrown on Nikes, it is also laid back and quite minimalistic. No fuss.
Throw on a denim jacket for when the lovely sun decides to hide behind some ominous looking grey clouds.

Bunny


When my sister found this adorable light denim button up at a thrift store, she originally thought it would be a lovely blouse. She is about half a foot taller then me. To her disappointment, when she tried it on it was as a strange length of being too long for a normal shirt and she just didn't quite like it for herself. I, however, being a mere 5 foot 3, tried it on and was ecstatic to see that it met the bare minimum of being a dress! With a pair of shorts underneath, I felt totally comfortable and cute in this simple ensemble. 
Again with the converse and high socks. Of course.
For an extra shot of nostalgia, I threw my hair up into what I, and my mother, used to call "little steam buns".
