Flared Denim

Happy first day of Summer, my beautiful people!  Instead of travelling as much as I have been for the last 6 months, my plans (at the moment, subject to change of course) are to stick around home this summer.  Thinking lots of beach days, bbq’s, weekend getaways nearby, hikes, and patio drinking!  Things have just been so crazy with the apartment flood and jet setting, I’m kind of looking forward to taking it easy, hanging out nearby and getting loads of work done.  What are your plans this summer?

I spent most of last week at lots of fun events, which a lot of you probably saw on snap. If you aren’t already following me on snapchat, you should: a_fashionista.  I also did a TON of reflection and research for the Alicia Fashionista brand and am feeling really focused and motivated.  My problem is that I’m an idea machine and don’t really know how/where to start everything.  I want to make sure I do things right around here!  If you have any requests for content, let me know in the comments below!  My first order of business is to get you 5 blog posts and a video per week, gotta start putting these “brilliant” ideas to good use!

Besides the obvious summertime fun, I also love dressing for warm weather.  I absolutely adore light layers and big ponytails, if you can’t tell from today’s photos.  This jacket is perfect to throw over a tank top for those overcast Pacific Northwest days.  I’m digging the lighter wash flared denim too, which I never really thought I’d be able to pull off, but they’re actually quite forgiving.  I was going to hem the flares, but decided that with shorter legs, they’re most flattering with a heel on anyway.  Though I don’t mind the new oversized silhouette, I never want to look any shorter than I already am!
