Floral Beauty Queen

There are some trends that you try your best to ignore until they become too appealing to deny. This season, that trend has been floral headpieces. Once I gave into my hidden desire to deck my head with flowers, it was like letting dam floodgates open-- I ended up buying not one, but three, headpieces within the space of a week. Granted, the first was purchased at a boutique in Gastown for the slightly hefty price of $18 while the last two were irresistibly priced at a mere dollar each. Once I had begun my collection, it was only natural to start wearing them for nature-y photoshoots.

Yesterday, my fellow blogger Sarah from Crowded Closet and I took a walk at a local park and found some lovely spots to shoot these pictures at. Other than the headpiece, I was excited to finally wear my pineapple print shorts that I bought at a Marshalls in Miami. During that trip, I also had convinced my boyfriend to buy a pineapple printed tank top so it only felt natural to buy a matching item. As soon as I first laid eyes on them, I know I had to own such a cute piece-- I've been having an extremely difficult time resisting the current, extremely adorable fashion trend of fruit prints on clothing.

I hope that everyone had a wonderful weekend and managed to get outside to enjoy this gorgeous weather we've been having! I've been fortunate enough to have had a long weekend off from work so I took full advantage of my freedom by going outside everyday.

On another note, it still boggles my mind that it's already June and that I'll be leaving for Asia in almost exactly one month...
