AND A MACARON MAKES 3!


apparel: Gap peacoat {Buffalo Exchange}, Ralph Lauren button up {thrifted}, floral tank top {thrifted}, borrowed gray cardigan {Target}, black coated skinnies {AE}
footwear: Metallic leather brogues {ASOS}
accessories: Neon satchel {Target}, assortment of bracelets {f21, H&M, De Masque, Charlotte Russe, homemade}

What would two food-obsessed girls do on a rainy day? Get brunch at La Boulange of course! Macarons, a ham and potato tart, and good conversations seem to make even the ugliest days b-e-a-utiful. Laura and I, lovers of all things aesthetically eye-catching, had such a cute ol' time at La Boulange, with it's old-city vibe and delicious, mouth-watering treats that made my tummy grumble in delight and anticipation. With it being the last time I was going to see my best friend in a while (4 months to be exact), it was the perfect, most delicious, way to say "see you later, alligator!" 

The rain always puts me into the most dreary mood, especially when it's spring break and all I crave is some vitamin D. Putting on a peacoat when I should be shimmying on a bikini seems wrong, oh so wrong, but a bright green neon satchel always seems to put me into a fun mood. Adding a neon green bracelet to my bun makes it a little less messy and a little more awesome, oui? My bestie is the cutest little pint-sized dresser, her outfit just screams sasssssss-sssy! Just the way I like it.

Oh man, the neon satchel + the fuzzy grey pea coat is such a perfect combination. And I love the graphic tee peeking out from underneath the cardigan.
