Hello and Happy Friday!
I feel like I brought the Seattle weather home with me... oops! Although to be fair, it did not really rain this much in Seattle! It was cloudy a lot, yes, and drizzled/misted off an on. But it did not downpour like it has been here!
Packing for Seattle was a little on the challenging side. Mainly because I had not had to pack for a trip in years, so my packing skills were a little rusty. I had begun to plan in my head what I would wear each day. And I ended up having it all planned out! Unfortunately, I was planning for Charlotte temps. Shorts, sundresses, skirts, sandals... you get the idea.
Then I checked the forecast for Seattle for the weekend. It was only predicted to be in the upper 50's, lower 60's and cloudy most of the days we were there. So, I had to rethink my packing situation!

I think I actually did a pretty good job all in all! I was comfortable and warm for the trip. Even the blue dress I wore to the Space Needle was pretty comfortable! I wore this rain jacket over top of it later in the day.
For today's look, this sweater dress is a dream! It is one of my most favorite purchases in a long time! It is soft, warm, and you can wear it as a dress OR a sweater. It buttons all the way down.
My original plan, was to wear it as a duster/sweater over jeans and a baggy tee. I wore it that way for brunch, but then I had the idea of wearing it as a dress, with the jacket. I'm glad I did! I like it a lot better and it was a lot more comfortable.
The white tennis shoes were a nice touch too. I found them on Shein.com and scooped them up. They fit like a glove and this trip was their first outing ever and they were fantastic! I did not get blisters, my feet were pretty comfortable all day -we did a lot of walking!

Early on on our trip, we had passed by this area that was on a steep hill and had a lot of staircases, fountains, and this cute mural! I wanted to stop then and get shots in, but we were on a mission at the time so we made a mental note to come back to it.
Sunday, we came back to it! My sis and I were on our way to the aquarium and stopped for a few shots. She did a great job too taking pictures! I was impressed!
It was a beautiful area! Very chic! There were strings of lights, trees, fountains, sitting areas -plenty of scenic places to get some great shots in! And I was very pleased with what we came up with!
Thank you so much for reading and I hope you have a great weekend ahead! =D
