I hope you’ve been having a nice spring! Allergy season has been giving me trouble– I’ve been feeling generally foggy for the past few weeks. I am very pale with very dark circles lately. Is it just me or does it seem like a particularly allergy-prone spring? I don’t think my spring allergies have ever been this bad. Hopefully it’ll be less intense soon.
I got this shirt in a JACHS New York event gift bag. Normally I wouldn’t choose a blue plaid for myself (I’ve always loved red/black), but I really see this shirt being an excellent spring and summer staple. Great for a cool night or a windy day at the beach.
The warm weather has been cheering me up. I hope it’s been treating you well, too.
Wearing:
- JACHS New York Skylar Shirt [ c/o] [ thanks Lydia! ]
- REISS Hayden skirt [ fall 2014 ] [ on sale here ]
- DSW boots [ similar ]

Alex, it is wonderful sometimes when someone else chooses. This blue is so pretty on you! Love it! Love the skirt, too, it is cut just right for a petite person. It is full, but not too full! Thinking about you. hoping all is great in your new home!

I think you look great in most–if not all–blue tones, so it doesn’t surprise me that I’m a fan of this. Sometimes (not always, but sometimes) getting a piece we wouldn’t pick for ourselves turns out surprisingly well.

Knew you could style it! Definitely not a typical Alex look but glad you’re “mixing it up” ;) #imcorny

Oh I have chronic allergies year round, b/c my triggers are internal. But this time of the year it gets worse. That top looks great on you I like the color. I have a plaid top but only wore it once, I am struggling with this trend.

Oh man, allergy season. Why does nice weather have to come with allergies? ;) This plaid shirt is very cute. Is this a snap in your new place?

I don’t know, but my allergies are soooo bad this season:(
Yes this is a photo in my new apartment. This might be my new photo-taking corner!
