Raspberry Lovely

Tank + Skirt: Thrifted Old Navy, Heels: Steve Madden, Necklace: Rue 21, Ring: Wrapped Up Pretty

I usually tend to think that velvet is reserved for cooler months so when I wanted to wear this skirt, I pulled it up to wear it as a dress. I think the short length makes it more appropriate for summer. I decided to go with a monochromatic color scheme...pinks and raspberry make for a pretty feminine  summer look right? Oh by the way I think I'm completely obsessed with knotting up all of my shirts...I keep catching myself doing this all the time. Is there a trend you find yourself repeating this summer?

Erica, somehow you make knotting look very natural. It would just look bumpy and awkward on me

awwww I LOVE that outfit and the colours!
And I love knotting. Like, my clothes, my hair ties, my scarves ... everything. I'm always twisting my fingers which annoys everyone except me because I don't notice it anymore :DDD
