My Outfit: Beach Bum Dreams - Keep Austin Stylish

Sometimes when I’m driving I imagine that just beyond the farthest buildings I can see, lies an ocean with a sandy beach. I love Austin, but, I’ve never been much of a lake girl. Swamp monsters, alligators, and diseases live in lake water, right? Growing up my family would take yearly summer trips to Florida and ever since, I have been in love with walking barefoot on the sand and swimming in clear blue water. In fact, I think part of the reason I decided to dye my hair red was just so that I would look and feel more like a mermaid. The weather in Austin has been absolutely beautiful lately and has felt more to me like a beach Summer than an Austin Spring. I even put on my surfing Bart Simpson t-shirt the other day, which usually only makes his appearance mid-Summer. If I don’t make it to a beach this Summer I might cry, but at least I have my imagination and my Bart Simpson t-shirt.
