STYLE STORY: TRES BIEN


Sorry friends for the crickets lately. Life has been hectic the past four months, but I'm feeling well rested after a couple weeks of much-needed vacation time. 

Thankfully, I've also had time to reflect on life. Although it's been tiring with long work days along with many other responsibilities, there isn't much I can complain about.

I was catching up with an old friend recently and we were reminiscing about our experiences in Africa. It was refreshing to relive those sweet memories and the many lessons I learned from my family and friends there. When I remember the easy-smiles & laughter of the children I met in the poorest areas, I'm reminded to live a life of thankfulness.  

So what can I say about life these days? It's 'très bien'.

  2. Very cute! Can't go wrong with stripes and florals, or being thankful for that matter.

  4. That is an awesome top, and I love the print mixing with the skirt. Both pieces are so nice on their own, but work so well together! :)

  10. Girl I feel the same way about the families I met this summer in the Dominican Republic, it is so easy to forget that while times may seem tough someone always has it worse! Also sometimes you just need a little R&R!! I love this outfit and the pattern mixing you've done here! Thank you for linking up with Favorite Fashion Friday this week!!
