OBSESSION

OBSESSION: FLORAL PRINT

Floral print has been an integral part of my wardrobe for some time now. It’s something about the femininity of the print that makes me love it more & more each day.

OBSESSION: CHAMBRAY

Chambray is my go to shirt - it goes with everything! I keep one in every shade, not really on purpose, but it is definitely a plus!
