Eternally Teenage

Pinafore Dress- Asos, Striped Shirt- Zara, Creepers- T.U.K., Sunglasses- Flashbacks

     A few weeks ago the clothing brand Asos contacted me about this back to school feature they were doing. They chose a few bloggers to style what they thought were essential fall wardrobe pieces. The fact that they wanted to include me was not only exciting (I mean hey I'm getting free clothes), but also extremely flattering considering my blog doesn't have the largest following. So without thinking twice I took advantage of this opportunity. I've never ordered anything from Asos before so I wasn't really sure what to expect quality wise, but I absolutely love everything they sent me, this denim pinafore dress being one of them. It's such an easy piece to wear, so I know it definitely will be making the cut for my Italy packing list. Speaking of which, I leave the country in almost 3 weeks. Ahh!

I'm a Burger!

Tank- American Apparel, Shorts- DIY, Pin- Burger Records 

     I got this pin from this cute little record store in Fullerton called Burger Records. They often have low key shows going on, which has been on of my favorite things to go to this summer. If you haven't heard of them, you should really check them out (which you can do here). 

     Yesterday was my 19th birthday, which has been interesting considering this is my last year as a teenager. Part of me feels really young, but part of me feels really old to think my time considering myself as a teenager is ticking away. I actually share my birthday with my dear friend Pranaya, but unfortunately I had to spend the day in the car while my family as we drove to Oregon. I do absolutely love Oregon though, and will be heading up to Portland for the first time ever in a few days. So if anyone has suggestions of things to do in Portland, please let me know!

Transatlantique

     I was trying to capture a Parisian vibe with this outfit. While it did end up looking a little more country than I was hoping I am still happy with it. It made me think of the song "Transatlantique" by Beirut for whatever reason. What is this, the 300th time I've brought up Beirut in a blog post? Bless my vagabond soul. 

    Also, google friend connect will be gone soon! Oh no! And while I only have a measly following of under 200, I would hate to lose all of you! If you care, perhaps follow me on Bloglovin'? 

     You can also follow me on Instagram (@taylorbalding), Twitter (@Lana_Del_Spice), and what the heck even facebook, if you wish to stay up to date with my posts!

Alright. Glad we got that settled.
