Into The Pleats of Spring

This is the skirt of my dreaaaaaaaaams! I've adored the pleated midi skirt since I first saw them on Dylana and Natalie's blogs. My absolute favorite was this one: a peach-colored pleated midi skirt with optimum twirliness. I spent hours skimming through yesstyle (where Dylana got her skirt), threadsence, forever21, UO, and nastygal in search of the perfect skirt. I found this one at H&M today at South Coast Plaza mall and splurged. Despite my initial giddiness, I was a bit hesitant on the skirt when I got home. However, a mini dress up session and photoshoot quickly erased all doubt from my mind. I'm absolutely in LOVE LOVE LOVE with this skirt! It's the perfect addition for spring (and it is so fun to twirl in).

Day Three. Last day in SF consisted of a dim sum brunch at Koi Palace, a visit to Pier 39 for some chocolate and seal/walrus watching, and a long drive back.

Day Two. Undoubtedly the best, most travel-filled day. From Union Square to Chinatown (not pictured), to the Golden Gate Bridge, and finally all the way to Fenton's Creamery in Oakland. We even saw a little bit of Banksy on the walls of SF. And that ice cream... was delicious.
