Yesterday I spent the day biking around Savannah with my boyfriend, Christopher. It was the most perfect 75 degree weather (this weekend is supposed to be all 75 - 85 degree days, OMG!) and this outfit was very comfy for a bike ride. I got these shorts in an H&M in Atlanta on a trip I took over the weekend to go see Joanna Newsom live, who was amazing and I got to meet her after the show and I got her setlist and autograph and she said she liked my hair, so that was cool.

But back to the bike ride. I took a bunch of pictures while biking around, here are some:


one of my favorite parts of riding bikes is focusing on the handle bars and watching the road and leaves pass by, it's mildly hypnotic.



our first stop on our Tour De Savannah was Forsyth park. it's a big lovely park that all the SCAD students sit at with friends and guitars and sketchbooks looking trendy, and all the tourists go there to gawk at the SCAD students and a big fountain, and all the Savannah locals go there to lurk and be creepy. (except for a few awesome homeless men who perform music there on occasion and are pretty awesome)

OH. and while we were biking around, we stopped at the gas station and found these AMAZING drinks I'd never seen before called "Aloe Vera King". Christopher got the kiwi flavor and I got the pomegranate. SO SO DELICIOUS.

The drinks even have little bits of fruit in them, so it's kind of like drinking pulpy orange juice (which is my favorite). I strongly suggest getting these if you ever see them while shopping. (ps. I promise they aren't paying me to write about their delish beverage. If I had to pick a beverage sponsor to write a whole blog about though, I would totally do it for them, jussss sayin)





next stop was this awesome park we found that was neat because it was really small and everything was really cream colored and somehow visually appealing, so this is the place where I shot the outfit picture above.


The only complaint about my outfit / the entire day that I can really make is that my shoes were not very bike friendly.

They kept slipping off at really inconvenient times (like when a whole bunch of traffic is behind me and headed straight towards my shoe, awesome.) So I let Christopher retrieve my shoe while I took pictures of my bare foot because I'm obviously really considerate. (I swear I really am, he is just really nice and sped after it each time)


Speaking of Christopher, here are some pictures I took of him at the end of our bike ride, isn't he such a qt?


You can click on it and view/hype it on lookbook, which I'm trying to force him to use more. Especially since he shoots outfit shots for it all the time and then doesn't post them, pfff.


I'm off now to do some homework, hopefully take a picture of todays outfit (meaning more blogging soon!), and then go do some sewing exercises for my fashion tech intro class (which is going super well and I thoroughly enjoy so far! I'll be sure to show you my progress soon!)

xoxo,
