Hi all you party people! I’m currently typing up this post at 11:38 p.m and trying to string together some coherent sentences before hitting the hay. Kyle and I just got back to Santa Barbara after a fun weekend at home. We decided to head back to our hometown on Friday for an amazing Valentine’s photo shoot and I am incredibly excited to see how they turned out! And yup, I might have just squealed a little inside from the anticipation of seeing our first real set of professional photos edited. AHHH.
Anyways, I had two outfits that I had in mind for our couple’s photo shoot, but ended up wearing a floral maxi dress. This outfit was the runner-up, but I still loved how girly and breezy it was so Kyle helped me snap a few photos around my backyard/neighborhood to share on the blog 
. Both the chiffon skirt and chambray top were purchased at Forever21 for under $20 each, which makes this college girl pretty darn happy. I’m not all that huge on buying for the sake of brand names, so any sale item that is both functional and cute are right up my alley! To top the outfit off, I added a chunky coral statement necklace that brought a burst of color in.
