Soif de Vivre

As Spring gets closer, my desire to wear lighter colors is increasing! This light blue trench coat is going to be the perfect piece to keep me warm on the brisk Spring mornings. I am in love with the color and the fit! It’s the perfect length and thickness. I paired it with an edgier outfit since I am still feeling a tad bit winter-oriented (does that make sense?). Plus, I am o b s e s s e d with these Topshop booties that I just got, so I wanted to tie them in with my black ripped denim.

I also have to point out this simple t-shirt, with a not so simple meaning! Unless you’re fluent in French (I would be so jealous if you were) then you probably are wondering what it means. “Soif de Vivre” translates to “Passion for Life.” I love this shirt because there are days where I feel overwhelmingly passionate about the life that I live, but other times, it’s hard to keep that mindset when things get rough. Over the past couple of weeks I’ve found myself stressing out about the smallest things, which I know is totally normal for us all! But it is also very discouraging at times. It’s so easy to get ahead of yourself and start thinking about the future and trying to figure it all out NOW, but we don’t need to do that, and I HAVE to remember that. It’s good to plan ahead, but it’s also good to face your day as it comes. It doesn’t help to stress out and lose your passion for this life we are blessed with. I need to do a better job at remembering not to stress the heck out on things that I can’t change, and I hope that seeing this beautifully put statement in my closet will help me keep that close to my heart! Keep your Passion for Life, and everything else will fall into place. (Visit Le Motto’s website, linked below, to find a t-shirt with a motto you want to live by!)

I am so excited to also bring you a discount that is higher than normal from The Dancing Jewels (where I got this trench + bauble earrings). There are SOO SO many things I’m dying for on their site right now, so I linked them up for you below. Be careful, it’s addicting!!!
