Hello Spring: Bell Sleeves, High Waisted Floral Shorts | Outfit of the Day

I’m back at it – one of my friends is an awesome photographer (info at the bottom) and wanted to photograph me so I pieced together an outfit that I think you guys will love.

One of my 2017 goals is to bring more color and add different pieces to my wardrobe. To step out of my comfort zone a little, I wore a crop to show some skin, shorts, and sass! (I normally show sass though 😉 ) I went to Forever 21 – on a whim – and some of these cute pieces. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find the exact match but I’ll tag similar pieces to recreate this look at the bottom.

These booties are my favorite!! I live in Columbus so there aren’t that many amazing places to shop but – on a whim, I walked into a small store [it’s how I end up finding my favorite pieces] – I found these cute tie-up black velvety booties.

I wore my lacy bralette underneath the red bell sleeved crop top to match the embroidered flowers around the trim of the high waisted shorts. I added a statement piece necklace and some mantra bands.
