“Whenever you feel like criticizing anyone,” he told me, “just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.” -Nick Carraway, The Great Gatsby

The Great Gatsby is a book I’ve loved ever since I read it in high school. It’s one of those books I keep rereading, year after year, and I still get lost in Gatsby’s lonely world of glitz and glamour. This will always be one of my favorite stories, and this sweatshirt is my absolute favorite piece of clothing that I own.

This sweatshirt is like a security blanket for me. It makes me feel happy and relaxed when I put it on. I actually wore this sweatshirt every single day this last week, haha (I’ve at least been changing the shirt under it!). It’s been nice a comfy for unpacking and running errands. I have also worn it at least once a week since I bought it two years ago (don’t worry I wash it on regular basis). It is SO soft. I just love it. And considering the amount of wear it gets, it’s holding up remarkably well.

As for the rest of my attire, let me just say that I hate wearing shorts so much. It’s a necessary evil that happens a couple times a year when it actually gets unbearably warm in whatever region I happen to be living in. However, pairing them with these really comfy, soft tights has made me like them a just a bit more…and I can almost trick myself into thinking it’s warm outside (even if it’s barely above freezing). I also couldn’t bring myself to wear jeans again, so, this was me changing things up a bit.

Princeton Battlefield Gravesite

These pictures are my first outfit photos taken in my new home base of Princeton. The columns I’m sitting next to are actually overlooking The Princeton Battlefield (which was a victory for George Washington’s Revolutionary forces over the British). These columns were actually not originally built here, they were part of a home from Philadelphia. (You can read more about that story by clicking here.) Behind the columns is a gravesite for the soldiers killed in the battle. There’s an incredible amount of history in this area that I am looking forward to exploring more of in the warmer months ahead.

*Now, I’m curious which book covers would you proudly wear out in public? Let me know in the comments!

  1. Nice photo shoots. Is Argentina good for digital nomads.

      Thanks! Argentina is a relatively inexpensive country to live in. So, yes, it is a nice place to live for a digital nomad if you are Spanish speaking. 🙂

      Thank you, Lauren! I didn’t realize you grew up in the area! What a small world. 🙂

    Love the look and how you paired the white tights with shorts. The Great Gatsby has to be my favorite book and I usually read it each year. First read it in one of my college classes.

      Thank you, Amanda! You are one of the most stylish ladies I know, so, thank you so much for the compliment! 🙂 The Great Gatsby and Pride and Prejudice are two books I never get sick of rereading.
