Happy Wednesday! No really, it is! My camera and my body are both back and in fighting form.  I think it has a lot to do with the fantastic sunshine that finally popped out and showed itself!  I'm recharged, rocking my trusty vest, and a new fabulous bracelet.  I shared this adorable, dainty bracelet on my Instagram the other day, but I'm here to share a little bit more about THREADS and the fantastic story behind it!  I've been following Ashley and The Shine Project for years now, but more recently she has started this jewelry endeavor.  THREADS employs at risk youth to make jewelry and earn a fair wage to help the students pay for their school to better their future.  

Here is some more info about them, from their website:

More Spikes & Short Skirts

spiked top: rainbow \\ black bubble skirt: ross \\ bootie wedges: shoe depot \\ crocodile clutch: vintage

I'm a big believer in balancing out the top of an outfit with the bottom, so with this shorter skirt I was thrilled to pair my newly acquired spiked shoulder top.  (Not to be confused with the spiked shoulder blazer) OR my new spiked purse.  I obviously like this trend, chickens. It is such a perfect outfit for the truly Spring weather we are having.  The best thing about this outfit is that is was so comfortable and perfect for having brunch & catching a movie!  I would also super love this outfit paired with some Chuck Taylors or flip flops.  But, it's safe to say I am definitely on a wedge kick.
My Life According to Instagram

Follow me on IG (@missbekah) here.

1.  I've officially switched over to iced coffee.  I don't know why it cost almost a dollar more to order the SAME thing over ice.  Someone explain it to me.

2.  I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE lemon greek yogurt.  Go get some now and you will thank me forever.

3.  I picked up a few new sandals on a Target trip.  I wanted them all, but I only purchased two.  That was super hard to pick.

4. Still putting sriracha on everything.  And I have NOT had time to get through this magazine.  Tragic.

4.  Out of my favorite Sugar lip treatment.  I don't know if I have ever finished a lip product to the end before it is lost or eaten by my little black canine.

Springtime, is that you?

See that sunshine? It came after 2 days of freezing weather and snow flurries.  It was a welcome sight. I feel that springtime is very near, thus the bare legs.  Don't let me down now, March! Okay, now it's storytime:  My whole life (okay, maybe I am slightly exaggerating...) I have yearned for a perfect denim jacket.  I loved the layering aspect, the keep ya warm-but not too warm factor, and the way that they can carry over spring items in to pre-spring time!  In case you did not know, I am 6 feet tall... and with that height comes a six foot wingspan (and great hugs).  Finding sleeves long enough were always a problem, as well as fitting my broad-ish shoulders. Also, cropped on a tall person = under the boob area. WHAT IS THAT ABOUT?!  But alas, here we are.  It only took (almost) 25 years to track you down, but you are mine.  I think we will have a merry time, me and you.

Sneak peek:  I styled this ASOS animal print dress (below) THREE ways! I can't wait to share.  Hope you are having the best week ever! Spring break is so close, I can see it!
