Outfit || Casual Monday

   Readers, I have returned! This year, blogging has taken its place on the back burner. This was bound to happen eventually. Life seasons change, and in this stage of life I smile at my innocent teenage intentions to write here three times a week. Once a month is about all I can manage now. Nevertheless, the less often our visits, the sweeter they are.

   My sense of style has changed quite a bit over the years of this blog's history, but one thing remains the same - I have an undying affinity for Converse sneakers. I currently have four pairs (two of which are wasting away in my closet...), but these are my first double-tongued pair. The extra pop of color and style are going to be fun to incorporate into my outfits! Please excuse the slightly blurry self-portraits.

   Yesterday, I styled these shoes with a coordinating raglan tee, navy skinny pants, and an oversized pink cardigan. Though the ensemble has a youthful look, I like how the trendy cardigan adds a bit of maturity while maintaining comfort. The result was a casual work outfit with a slightly quirky flair.

  Now I have some sad news for you guys. Earlier this month, I had to say goodbye to my dearest furry friend, Copper. Long-time followers will remember him as my sidekick, and perhaps recall this post when he made a "guest-writing" appearance. ;) You might say he was the unofficial  mascot of Sunday Best. I miss my sweet boy, but am glad that I took so many pictures to remember him by over the years.

Have a lovely summer!

Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow.
