april look book. cake & valley.

well april flew by in the blink of an eye . . . . so now it's time for a little monthly wrap up! we've complied all our looks from the last four weeks & put them in one fabulous post for you to review. which look was your favorite? we're both still in love with the golden gate bridge photos, valley's layered turquoise necklaces, and cake's teased french twist look.  

hope you all had a fantastic weekend.
have a great monday.

bugging out. valley.


so did you all have nightmares about a giant spider standing behind you :/  we hope not!!!!

here's another look for you all to enjoy {and we're not just talking about the ten foot spider}. valley's look is a little dark & a little peachy all at the same time. the dark jeans & jacket are perfectly paired with a light weight tee & scarf; which makes for a great spring look. transition times always call for layers, layers, layers. which on a good day you end up caring around with you because the weather has warmed up enough, sadly this day was not one of those days. boo.  maybe tomorrow :)

bugging out. cake.





how cool is this sculpture? it's a massive spider, just chilling in the courtyard between a few buildings. as soon as it was put in place we knew we had to take pictures with it. we just had to wait for the weather to cooperate. doesn't it feel like spring is inching towards us?!?!? maybe one morning it will finally be warm enough for us to walk out the front door without a coat! ha, girls can wish, right?!?! happy tuesday.
