I thought hot pink and mustard would be a fun color combo to try! I love these high waisted shorts and tucking a sweater into it was perfect for a California winter day.





sweater Forever 21, shorts & purse Lulu*s {similar}, necklace Chico's {hehe}, boots Old Navy {similar},
sunglasses Ray-Ban, ring c/o Poshlocket
Sometimes I wonder why I even bother putting my "summer" clothes away. I always end up looking for them! And then around March/April each year I get really sad when I have to put away my winter clothes, and realize that I maybe wore them once, if that. I've fallen in love with so many cute coats recently but I know they're not practical. I'm thinking next winter Matthew and I should plan a snow trip! I've only been skiing once and I loved it! I was in high school and even though I wanted to be the cool kid snowboarding it just wasn't for me. Also I fell down..a lot. Skiing was a little easier and the bunny slopes were the best playground!
Are you a skier or a snowboarder? I'm curious!

So funny, how different life can be! I just had to get my boyfriend to be late for work so he could drive me to work (I usually walk) because it's -29 today. Like, hurts to be outside cold. I have fleece tights layered under my pants! I would definitely trade you a weekend of skiing for a weekend of glorious sun & warmth!! Haha that said, you look completely adorable here Mara! Love this look!
ReplyDeletelove these colours together! Wish I could wear shorts in the winter0 it is so cold here and I'm fed up with it!

I would never have thought to put those two colours together... but they look gorgeous!

Skiing is easier to get the basics of, but harder to excel at. Snowboarding is harder to get the basics of, but easier to excel at.
ReplyDeleteSo true! When we lived in Utah I had about twenty different coats. Now that we are in California I don't ever get to wear them. Makes me so sad!
ReplyDeleteI adore that first photo of you!
I really love this look!!! love the high waisted shorts and your hair updo is super cute!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful color combo to try! And I wish our winter was like your winter - there are only so many ways I can think of to make a parka look cute!

ReplyDeleteI love skiing!! Haven't tried snowboarding. Wish I could go a couple times a year!
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh. you're beyond cute. this is such an adorable outfit. love it.

Love the colour combo here, and your bag is so cute! I've actually only been snowboarding a few times but I loved it! My mum has done both and she said skiing is a lot easier. Ahh, I just want to go snowboarding now haha!
ReplyDeleteLove those boots!
ReplyDeleteLove your outfit as per usual! Love the hair too.. I wish I could do that haha. I'm Canadian and I live in the snow and I've only gone skiing and snowboarding a handful of times!
ReplyDeleteYou should definitely do a trip to Banff or Jasper, Alberta Canada.. it is beautiful!

Color combo is so unexpected and lovely!
ReplyDeleteGreat color combo! Those high waisted shorts are super cute too!
ReplyDeleteI have a confession: I've lived in Utah for 8 years & I've been to a ski resort one time. And I didn't even ski or anything - I was there for a charity thing! It's even worse because we literally live at the base of the mountain & could leave our house & probably be skiing within 20 minutes. It just doesn't appeal to me at all! :o)
i loveeee those colors together. those shorts are adorable.
ReplyDeleteThe sunlight in the pictures is absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI'm neither nor ;)
I LOVE this color combo! So pretty!!! And your hairstyle is adorable - you look gorgeous! Great pictures! :) What camera do you use?

I never went skiing or snowboarding in my life. Can you believe that? I don't think it would be anything for me anyways. I do LOVE your shorts here! x

Oh my goodness . . . come to Vail,CO! My husband and I are ski instructors there and would love to introduce you to our little snow globe of a world. You would love it and I promise you all of the hot chocolate you can drink to keep you warm.
ReplyDeleteThat bag is to die for! I love this look,thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteMara, I def love this color combo. I'll have to give it a try for myself. :) They braids are super fun too!
ReplyDeleteHope you're having a great week so far!

ReplyDeleteI love the color combo!
ReplyDeleteI loooove your shorts! That colour and cut is amazing!
ReplyDeletehaha. I'm definitely a snowboarder! It's difficult, but sososo FUN!
ReplyDelete-kim
found the route
agreed. these colors are impeccable on you!! and totally wish i could wear something like that in a Boston winter!! haha
ReplyDeletecan't wait to do that with my hair once it is long enough :) it looks so lovely on you
Love this combo. Those shorts are so fantastic! I've only been snowboarding once and have never been skiing, although I think I would be better at skiing since I was an ice skater. A snow trip sounds like so much fun! I always want to take one every year and never do.
ReplyDeleteHello from New Zealand. Love the lip colour. What lipstick is it, if I may ask?
ReplyDeleteCUTE BOOTS!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love love love your hair and all the bright colors! [Plus the sunglasses too] Pretty much everything :)

I live in a cold climate and I'm completely jealous of your amazing California weather. That said, as much as I hate the cold, I really do love winter clothes and layers.
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'd like winter more if I did enjoy skiing/snowboarding....but I don't!
Love it all. http://paquetevistasbien.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteLove the colors and the HAIR!! So cute!
ReplyDeleteYour Hair! Oh my..I love them!
ReplyDeleteMara I love everything about this look. Few people can pull off that hairstyle. Gorgeous.

Good to know! My bf is always trying to get me better at snowboarding, but it's a little terrifying. I'll try skiing next! I'm the same way. I wear so many summer pieces in the winter... it's just too easy here in CA. I'm crazy about those shorts and that statement ring! And the sailor striped purse is the best.

I started skiing when I was 13, and around 15 decided that I was too cool for school and needed to become a boarded. I think all 15-year-old girls have some switch that goes off that propels them to do whatever they can to break their fathers' hearts, and, for me, this meant hanging up my skis and insisting on a board.
ReplyDeleteIt was definitely less intuitive than skiing, but I stuck with it even after a broken arm. I got pretty good, even. A few years later, though, I realized that skiing is more my style, and now, I don't ever look back. Plus, I get to ski with my dad. :)
I love this look - I just found your blog and love it too. Your hair is amazing - I wish I could do this too, but I would need a few more arms :)
