Outfit deets:
* Ashley B jacket which you've seen with all grey, with the same scarf and an old outfit I would still wear & at the first concert I went to with my guy.
* Smart Set t-shirt.
* Bongo denim (old) which you've seen on the weekend & if you'd like, here is an Instagram shot of the distressing.
* Converse shoes.
* Accessories: G21 (Walmart) sunnies & Club Monaco scarf.
These shoes have been on serious lock since we returned from Punta Cana and the weather has drastically warmed. I can't get enough of these and being able to wear them elsewhere than in the condo. I took them for a test drive while shopping on Monday and felt cool, chic and comfortable--perhaps the magical three C's for shopping.
Additionally, I ripped up these jeans myself last summer and had initially cut slits at the bottom inner hem, since they were extra long. However, the length was off and they weren't super tight at the ankles so they puffed when tucked into booties and didn't sit right with heels.
Then, lightbulb moment!
I chopped them off at the ankle--my preferred length for skinnies--to join the raw hem denim movement and haven't looked back. I'm so pleased with how they turned out. See the full 'steps' on my Facebook page.

Outfit deets:
* Ardene overalls (new!); I had planned to remove the daisies before we left on vacation but ran out of time. I know daisies are a huge trend this year but I'm not really feeling it, and despite thinking it's cute on theses, I'll still likely cut them off.
* H&M tank (old).
* Converse sneakers which I finally got to wear outside during our vacation, plus I used them as my travelling shoes instead of my normal flats.
This is a super simple outfit from my trip, but next time I'll style these overalls with a tee. That was my initial plan, but the t-shirt I brought was too flowy and it wasn't doing any favours to the overalls, nor me.
That said, this denim won't be seeing the light of day for a good month, with the cool temps we are still having. As an aside, it feels good to at least put away the winter jackets and pull out something a little lighter like leather jackets and trench coats. Hope you're having a great week thus far and see you tomorrow.

Happy Friday!
Today is my last day at work before a blissful 10 days of vacation. We leave for Punta Cana on Sunday for a week and I can't wait to sleep in, eat, feel the heat and wear shorts!
Although I won't be in town next week, I have some fun posts lined up for the blog and may even check in with some fresh vacation photos while they are happening. Be sure to follow along on Instagram as I'll be posting up a storm on there (I'm @acoest1984).
Before we go, I have a few things to take care of; this week I've been to the mall twice and to a few Winners in search of three things: a floral kimono, some flat sandals & a sexy dress. I have had zero luck thus far and only come home with purchases for Marco. Not a total fail, but certainly not as fun.
Tonight I'm meeting up with Serena to shoot the look I'm wearing today--hopefully the rain holds off--and then I plan to dash to the mall with high hopes I'll find what I'm looking for. I've already purchased more sunscreen, a new lotion and some aloe vera gel in case someone gets too zealous in the sun. Tomorrow will be spent packing and cleaning, and then we are off!
Hope you have a great weekend!
