minimalist by force

On the rare occasion that I do step out of the house before noon on a weekend, I'll choose the simplest outfit. This time, it's this easy white shift dress and my favorite long sweater - which proved to be way warmer than expected.

I'm not a photographer, though I take Landon's photos all the time. Because you know what? Just because you paid money for a fancy DSLR, it doesn't make you a professional photographer. Money doesn't buy you talent or skill. I met Angel through friends and had the pleasure of working with him on a quick shoot after work. Here are the results and boy, am I happy with them - the light, the movement (which he totally had to give me his expert direction on) - it's for sure one of my favorite shoots to date!

Good morning early birds! With the weather in New York right now, all you can do it throw on something short, airy with some sort of cutout - and Motel Rocks has it all. These are just four of my favorites but they have so many amazing prints, washes and silhouettes that I had a hard time choosing. And if I'll be honest, they're the ones that turned me into a daisy fanatic. So thank you, Motel Rocks. You rock.

There's nothing like a good daisy print to put a little bit of fun in your outfit. Two different daisy prints though? I thought I'd try it. This Motel Rocks skirt has such a minimal daisy print that it was easy to pair it with this wilder top that I thrifted a few weeks ago (what a find, right?). Motel always has the cutest prints, Arizka (girl crush, yo) rocked a long, maxi version of this print and I just had to go with the same title from one of her other posts (girl really loves her daisies). I paired it with a denim shirt this past weekend - on Instagram - confirming that this is gonna go with basically everything I have in my closet.
