Shelter from the storm.

Shop the look: jacket (H&M)/pants (GAP)/blouse (American Eagle)/flats (Urban Outfitters)/scarf (gift)/purse (Fossil)

Lately the rain has been coming down in buckets in my fair city and like the fabulous west-coaster that I am, I didn't even own a rain jacket. I am aware of how ridiculous this is, yes. Thankfully, it was my sister's birthday this weekend so I scooped up this pretty red number at H&M during her celebrations downtown. I have been wearing it ever since and it has been putting a spring in my step even on the wettest of afternoons. I'm looking forward to this baby brightening the rest of my rainy February, and let's be honest, March, April and May.

In other news, I start back to classes tomorrow with a paper due right away and a midterm exam on Thursday. The good news is that I have been relatively productive and my paper is already done! No all-nighters for me :) I hope you ladies have some fun plans coming up this week! I'm hoping to squeeze in some time to do some yoga, and pin some pretty things. Oh, and learn how to apply liquid eyeliner! I bought some at Sephora this weekend in the hopes that I can muster up a steady hand and produce some pretty results. 

Happy Monday my sweets!
