Peach!

Shirt: bought by mom :), Jeans: JC Penney's, Shoes: Urban Outfitters, Bracelet: Thrift Store

Jeans weather in the Midwest!

Just in time to wear my new peach-colored pair of denim.

At first, I wasn't too sure about this lighter tone of pink. In fact, I tried these on at the store several weeks ago and decided that my skin is way too pale to be paired with these jeans.

Thanks to the sunny weather, I have somewhat of a tan now, tried the pants & decided to follow the "pastel colored jeans style".

(Best fact: they were on the sale rack!)

Earlier this morning, when I was browsing through different blogs, I came across a post that talked about shopping with mom. That was very inspiring, and got me thinking.

 I realized that something I really miss about home is the regular (window)shopping trips with my mother.

When I visited Germany this past summer, I was surprised to find this black shirt in my closet: My mom bought it for me and I love it! 

I don't know about everyone else, but personally, I used to not like the things my mother would pick out for me to wear. As a young girl, I wanted to be in charge. Remembering those times when my mom would pick out floral prints that I would turn down in a matter of seconds, makes me realize that she knows me and my style better than I could have expected.

And we both get most excited about amazing deals and sales :)

Bottom line: Mom is my favorite shopping-buddy!

Greetings from the Midwest,
