boho summer

Hello loves!

With fall fashion sneaking back up on us and making its yearly appearance, I can’t help but notice all the plaid and boots popping up everywhere. Although my closet mostly consists of summer apparel (because, let’s face it.. I am definitely a California girl),  there is something special about cozy knit sweaters and all the fall accessories that have a place in my heart. Hey, I’m all for the pumpkin spice lattes (#basic), and booties, and scarves and… okay I think you get the point.

However, I will use every opportune time to wear my boho dresses from Shop Bella Blu  before the weather forces me to put them away. Here are a few staples that can easily be dressed up/down. Throw a oversized plaid shirt on top and you have successfully transitioned to fall! 🙂

The lace detailing on this dress are my favorite part, and put a whole new spin on LBD. I’ve definitely already paired both a plaid and a denim vest over it, but sometimes simple is best.

My favorite dress out of them all is this neutral gray fringe back dress. It just screams me with the detail in the back and the color that just goes with everything. It’s so versatile and I am in loooooove with the fringey back!

All dresses were paired with my favorite shoes of the summer which was less than $35 which you can find here. The lace-up shoe trend seems to be everywhere I turn! But I’m sure we are all wondering..where have they been all our lives?! 🙂

Til next time..

blogiversary: turning one

  
Hello lovelies,

I sit here reflecting on the past year and how wonderful it has been. A year ago today, I had just moved to a new area. I decided to pick up blogging because honestly I just really wanted a hobby. My friends definitely nudged me in the direction towards it, when they saw how much I enjoyed photography and writing. What I did not realize, was how big the blogging world was and how much fun it would be.

  
It’s Lena Time has brought me to some of the cutest coffee shops, boutiques, and outdoorsy places around the area. Can I honestly say THANK YOU for joining me on this journey and always being so, sooo, SOOO encouraging! I have loved every moment and all the friendships that I have gained through this.

I am seriously in LOVE with this top that I am wearing, and basically this whole shop… which you can check out by clicking here. The quality, details, packaging definitely impressed me! They also were super sweet and are giving all of you 25% your purchase by using the code: ITSLENATIME

   
  
 Again, thank you all for being such a huge part of this journey.. I am looking forward to all the adventures in Year TWO with you all!

Xoxo,

Lena
