Hidden Serenity








Outfit
Top: Patterson J. Kincaid via Nordstroms Rack
Skirt: H&M
Shoes: Steve Madden via Nordstroms see them HERE!!!!
Earrings: Thrifted during my first Thrift and the City shopping tour.

Finally got to wear the Steve Madden Platforms my mom got me for my birthday. They are super comfortable. This is one of my favorite new shirts. I love the baggy front pockets and the fell of it. It's so comfortable. I paired it with one of my favorite skirts from H&M. See it worn differently HERE!
While look for places to shoot these photos I cam across this neglected courtyard to an apartment building.
It was so overgrown but i loved the trees and the cobblestone and the ingrown weeds. It was very serene and quiet.
I wondered why the management had let is get into such a state. I plan to go back there and take more photos.

Have you ever come across a hidden place????

xoxo
Monroe

    I really love that you did not force a loose top with a fitted bottom. The outfit looks comfortable and work or play appropriate.
