look up

Being a blogger, I spend quite a bit of time on my laptop & phone.
Editing photos, researching, writing posts & responding to emails,
can mean spending hours a day just staring at a screen. Lately, I have
been trying to take breaks throughout my day & get outside for a
nice walk with my little one a few times a day. Sometimes, we forget to
put our phones away & get outside to experience the beautiful world
around us. That’s why I love that smartwater is doing the Instagram challenge “look up” (check it out #lookupsweepstakes). I am so lucky
to live in such a beautiful city & love the reminder to look up
& see the beauty that surrounds me daily! The other day, I looked up
& saw this.. 

Southern California is known for it’s Palm
trees & sometimes I forget how pretty they make Los Angeles. In a
city full of buildings & bustling streets, it’s nice to look up
& see these. The bright blue sky & Palm trees make me want to
embrace this warm weather & put together a fun Summer outfit. Since I
can’t get those beautiful palms out of my mind now, I decided to
embrace one of my favorite trends for this season & put together an
outfit incorporating the Palm tree pattern! Here are some of my favorite
pieces..
