Included some outtakes/weird poses suggested by my mom and husband in honor of today’s post…..

Florals are obviously appropriate for Spring, and this darker shirt is totally my style! I’m not a huge pattern girl and I don’t gravitate to darker colors. I would wear black all year! (More on that below…) Thanks to my mom for letting me borrow her top for these photos – she has awesome style and coming home means I get to borrow her clothes! If only we were the same size in shoes….Speaking of which, I know I’m wearing these wedges all the time but they are so comfy and perfect for Spring! And at only $60 they’re hard to not recommend!

Since today is my 26th birthday so I wanted to share 26 random things about me! Here you are, in no particular order –
