Memory Lane

These pictures are some of my favorite I’ve gotten to take with my friend and photographer Hannah Drews. They capture an outfit that makes me think of the fun trip my fiancé (then boyfriend) and I had last May to California. We took the trip as a vacation around a friend’s wedding and spent the whole time having a blast sightseeing in the sunshine. I wore this outfit to our friend’s wedding, which was on the most beautiful ranch with an amazing backdrop. I’d splurged on the DVF skirt and it felt like the perfect fit for our trip to SoCal. Reliving the outfit now, I still think it was!

Each time I put on this DVF skirt (I wear it year-round), I not only think of the trip that I packed it for, but the day I bought it. Sarah and I were downtown after a great dinner and giddily decided to stop in the TJMaxx off of Michigan Avenue to browse. We ended up in the designer section and encouraged each other to try on DVF pieces that we fell in love with on the hangar. After seeing each other in the items, we then talked one another into buying them!

Do you have any outfits that conjure up memories? In my opinion, it’s always more fun when there’s a story or feelings associated with what you’re wearing!
