Bit of Bright

Been so caught up in being busy lately, so I haven't been too active in posting outfits here.  However, after this week I should have a bit more time freed up to post on a more frequent basis *fingers crossed*.  Anyway, I have been very captured by the elements and trends of the summer, and have been trying to utilize them as best as I can with my personal style.  In this outfit, I'm pairing my black and white striped tee with a black pair of shorts, though I used accessories such as my bright socks, bag, and bracelet to add an electric pop of color to the look.  I'm not typically one to gravitate towards bright colors, but I've been incredibly attracted to them recently.  Hopefully I'll be able to post more colorful summer outfits before the season is through.  All photos taken by Zeric Villanueva.  =]
