First Day in London

First Day in London

I have been given the amazing opportunity to spend five weeks of

the summer studying in London. As much as I am here for school

 I fully intend to experience all London has to offer.  

I'll be posting all my adventures and the 

outfits I wore along the way, stay tuned.

My first official day in London was admittedly spent

in bed recovering from my red eye flight.

By the next morning, I could not get out fast enough.

That first venture out was basically a mash-up of everything touristy you could think to do in London: Big Bend,

 The London Eye, Tower Bridge, and of course a few snaps with

 the telephone booths.

I kept my outfit simple since I'd be walking about all day.

The not so basic white tee did what it does best and 

polished up the look. For a pop of color, I popped

 on this lightweight bomber jacket.

Top // Ellelauri

Shorts // H&M (last year)

Bomber // H&M

Purse // Charming Charlie's

A successful treasure hunt at the thrift store ended with

me walking out with this blue tweed mini skirt.

What I love about this skirt: the texture, the color,

 the versatility, and the pockets - of course.

The texture is unexpected but not too busy. 

The color, classic.

It can be dressed up with strappy heels, dressed down with a 

pair of Converse - which I cannot wait to sport come summer - ,

or given an edgy look with a chunky boots. 

The same could be said for the top.

A not so basic white tee is the perfect top for summer. 

The ruffles do all the work for you.

 There is no need to think; just grab your pop of

 color shoes/bag and enjoy the summer sun.
