la vie bohème.

Guys, I’m so torn. I’m not ready for summer to be over, but I’m actually excited to trade in my brights ensembles for something a little simpler (go ahead and rub this in my face in six months).  I mean, they don’t call neutrals a classic for no reason — they look and feel effortless and timelessly sophisticated.  So while I’m stuck in between seasons, I’ll be sticking with lighter layers, but reaching for more subtle shades.
