First things first, my thoughts, prayers and more go out to everyone affected by yesterday’s events. I can’t seem to wrap my head around why these tragedies continue to happen. I don’t think we’ll every truly understand it but we can all do our little part to help with healing. If you’re interested in making a donation to The Red Cross or Salvation Army, both organization do wonderful jobs on the ground with disaster relief. It seems trivial to be putting together a post after what happened but I think focusing on positivity is one of the ways we heal from these types of events. That and remembering all the people we love and are thankful for. It’s a shame that it takes events like this to reach out to people but I was like a social media hound dog hunting down one of my high school friends in Boston. And Lo, I’m really glad you are okay.

To put a sunny spin on this morning, I wanted to share this look from one of the brisk days last week. I love those days when it’s sunny outside but the air is just a tad bit cool. I threw on this Old Navy sweater (which I totally copied and bought after I saw Grace from Stripes + Sequins wearing it) with a bright colored pair of jeans. Just the right amount of spring in my step.

Sweater: Old Navy (so cozy and not too warm. perfect for summer nights thrown on with shorts); Mint Denim (previously seen here): LOFT (On Sale – 40% off now – no code needed); Leopard Oxfords: Dolce Vita
