Spring Breeze

 





sweater | shorts | bralette | necklace similar | sunglasses | sandals

This outfit could potentially be one of my favorite summer looks. The worn denim paired with a light sweater and sunglasses just screams the beach. I am such an ocean girl, so I was quite happy this past week being back in the salt water and relaxing in the sand. The sand in seaside is unlike any other sand on I have seen before, it's such a crisp white and so fine and soft. The water was refreshing and I was surprised by how big the waves got some days. 

Every year I wear a ton of sun screen on spring break, but my my Irish side never fails to show up leaving me burnt and resembling a lobster. Because of this lovely situation, I always want to wear loose fitting clothes that don't irritate the burns. The light sweater and bralette were the perfect combination for a breezy night. We went out to a casual dinner after I shot these pictures, so jean shorts seemed like the perfect item to complete the look. Personally, I find jean shorts difficult to shop for. Something is never right, the waist line is unflattering, they're too ripped, or the color is just not what I'm looking for. However, this year Zara pulled through. I ordered these shorts on a whim before break and they ended up being the perfect pair! I love the light wash and frayed hem. The only thing that I am a bit hesitant about is that they are pretty short so I don't think I will wear them to school. Besides that they are awesome and I know I will be getting a ton of wear out of them this summer at the beach, concerts, and on the boat!
