April has been a ridiculously busy month, but that didn’t stop me from visiting one of my favorite attractions in Tucson: Spring Fling! It’s an event that has been wonderfully near and dear to my heart since undergrad. And it’s always refreshing to walk around outside and take in the sense of community, bright colors, and big smiles — not to mention gorge on the fatty fair food (I did exert willpower on the fried candy bars!).
Here are a few pics for a much needed injection of cheer. Enjoy!

So I definitely spoke to soon when I said spring was over. This past weekend, we got hit with some unexpected April showers, which reduced the temp to blazer-worthy weather. I’m not a big fan of the cold, but I’ll jump at the opportunity to wear my jackets a few more times before they go back into hibernation.
The bold navy & white stripes makes this blazer borderline circus ringmaster (as my bf lovingly refers to it), so I toned it down with a solid gray tank and flowy white skirt.
My favorite part of the weekend is not having to dress by any standards — no office dress codes, no fussy hair, and barely any makeup (blush, bronzer, done). While I love to get creative and play dress up, come Friday, I generally fall into my routine outfit of t-shirt and cut-off jeans.
When I flipped through these pics that I took while visiting Madewell in Century City last month, I was instantly reminded that a weekend uniform can still look cool. Toss on a button-up in chambray blues, earthy greens and yellows, or casual plaids and you get a stylish look without the effort.
Happy weekend everyone!
