Lemon stripes

Okay, I swear the stripes on this sweater are not nearly as bright in real life as they turned out in these photos. They look really bright, don't they?! Haha. I'm kind of a lot in love with how this sweater looks with the necklace. The yellows don't perfectly match, but they go; I tend to find myself matching when I'm not quite sure what to wear or if I'm wearing something new, but I'm trying to break out of that habit. Not sure how long it will last but at least I have this outfit to show that I tried?

I bought these light wash jeans at the beginning of the month and just adore them. They are the perfect light wash for spring/summer. I haven't had light wash jeans in what feels like years...I mean, I literally cannot think of the last pair I owned, so it was probably before high school. (Denim was not allowed according to my high school dress code so that may be why I can't remember.) Light washes also felt really dated to me, but I've changed my ways and now can't get enough. Also, I'm not sure how I feel about wearing near-skin-colored shoes with long pants. I still think it looks a bit weird; if I glance at the photos too quickly, I look barefoot. These were my best shoe option, though, so...oh well.
