This year I’ve been trying to fill my closet with pieces that are classic, yet unique. This black eyelet top that I recently acquired most definitely fits that criteria. The eyelet detail in the back and scalloped hem make this piece stand out from other tops. Yet, the style of this eyelet top is classic enough that I’ll be able to wear it for years. I have to admit that I wasn’t very impressed with this top when I first saw it online. But, it fit like a dream when I tried it on in-store. For reference, this top does fit a bit loose, so I would recommend to size down.
These Lotta from Stockholm peep toe clogs are another piece in my closet that I know I will wear time and time again, and I actually recently purchased them to replace my last pair. These clogs tend to be my go-to shoes on sunny days because they look good with mostly anything. Plus, the wooden sole is extremely comfortable. I know that last part is true because I’ve walked several miles while wearing them before. Also, I can say that they age very well since I did have my previous pair for over 2.5 years. I got rid of them was because they were ruined as a result of a leak in my apartment. If all that is not enough to convince you that these clogs are a must-have item in your closet, than I don’t know what is.

Upcoming Travel
I have no idea how I’ve managed not to mention this on the blog until now, but I’m traveling to Chile and Argentina in less than two weeks! I feel pretty behind on planning for this trip, so I spent a good chunk of this weekend tracking down items that I’ll need while abroad. I’m pretty excited to travel to these countries and visit South America for the first time. Even though I’m traveling to these countries as part of my graduate program, I’m sure that I’ll manage to squeeze in some fun activities here and there. I hope that this trip will be as exciting as I imagine it will be, and that I’ll be able to share some fun shots from my adventures with you in the near future.
As always, I hope you all had a lovely weekend and thanks for stopping by my little corner of the internet!
xoxo,
Helen
