sunshine drug

Man, could I be any more smile-happy in these photos? I blame the sunny California weather and it's darn persuasive ways, tempting me to go outside and not be productive.

As for the outfit, there's something to be said about wearing an uber girly dress with a full skirt and cute pattern with edgier heels. The contrast makes me feel like a Zooey Deschanel hybrid with a dash of edgy, rocker chick (I couldn't think of a celebrity that fit in this analogy. Any ideas?)

Happy Thursday, everyone!

Dress: Vintage coffee bean print dress,
Heels: Black gladiator heels, Steve Madden
