These photos were taken on our second day in Philadelphia, since then I've become completely enamored with the Magic Gardens and their corresponding murals throughout the city. We've been spending most weekends and evenings after work walking around and strolling down unexplored side streets. It's kind of my favorite thing right now. When I leave the hotel we're currently calling home, I know I'll miss walking out the door and having so much right there. But I'm excited, too, to have our own space again, to look out on to a park, and to get to know a new neighborhood in a different part of Philadelphia. Life is exciting.

This outfit is a long-time favorite, a go-to for casual days when I want to feel more dressed up, though it's never made it to the blog before. I grabbed this skirt off an IG sale last summer, and I love the volume and pattern, it lends itself so easily to a variety of color pairings.
