I Love This Look: Flowers & Embroidery

I hope that everyone had a great weekend!  I had a busy weekend, first on Saturday I celebrated my honeys birthday with an amazing chocolate chip pancake breakfast (recipe to come), followed by a Yankee game (they won, go Yanks!).  Then on Sunday, I got to spend the day with one of my dearest friends Christi, who was in town from Charleston, South Carolina.  We spent the day exploring Brooklyn with a must-stop at the Smorgasburg which was amazing as always.  Spring is still slowly making it's way into the area and I have been back and forth with wearing a jacket to going without.  One item that I can't live without is my leather jacket - which is just one of the reasons that I love this outfit here.  I love how the toughness of the leather is paired with two ultra-feminine pieces like floral prints and white, delicate embroidery.  I also love how her brows are super defined and how her cheeks are rosy, just a sunny look. I hope that everyone has a great week!

    I love the added edge of the leather jacket paired with sweet florals.

    I love that look, too! Whenever I wear florals, I have to add a leather element, such as a jacket to toughen it up a bit. LOVE this! xo, Julie

    This look is so cute! I am loving the hat. The floral pants mixed with a more masculine hat is so great!
