Jacket: c/o Puma, Striped Tee (I Cut Shorter to Crop) c/o: American Eagle Outfitters, Pink Tank: c/o Michael Stars, Shorts: c/o Prana, Tote: c/o Roxy, Sunnies: (Similar) Sneakers: c/o Newton  

Hey Lovelies!! I had a little getaway this past weekend and decided to mix up my workout routine with a ride on my beach cruiser! The weather has been waaaaaay too nice to be indoors, so I opted to sweat it out in the sun (with SPF of course)!! Did you know that you can burn up to 400 calories just by riding for a half hour? So get out there in your hottest hues, and pump your pedals!! 

XOXO,
