Hello everyone,

Who else has ditched their leggings/jeans for something more stretchy and comfy like biker shorts? I HAVE! I started wearing them last year when they became trendy, and guess what? They're still here to stay even in 2020! They won't be going anywhere, anytime soon! That's fantastic news to me, you, and the whole world because these shorts are a total CATCH!

One thing's for sure, with quarantine this year and the hot summer, my cycling shorts have been a true savior. I keep rotating them, one pair after the other. Now, I have a pretty good idea of all the ways I like to style them most. This is why I knew, I had to write this post!

Plus, you know that the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is starting in a few hours...begins August 19 (opens to general public), so now is the perfect time to stock-up on a few pairs for a lot less than usual. It's a WIN, WIN situation!

And read further to find-out my favorite ways to style my cycling shorts! They're a great statement for a cool athleisure look, which you can take anywhere. So good for travel, weekends, going hiking or hanging out at home. Take your pick and let's get biking!!! hahaha!

1. Tie-Dye Biker Shorts

2. Snake Print Biker Shorts

3. Floral Print Biker Shorts

4. Leopard Print Biker Shorts

5. Lilac Reptile Biker Shorts

First up, you need a WILD print!🐆

Biking short bottoms, which scream, "Yep, I've got power and I'm not afraid to use it!" Here comes the snake print, leopard, or you can even go with the trendiest splashes of tie-dye or cute florals. It's all in YOUR FAVOR! Whatever your taste-buds love the most!

My favorite are these leopard cycling shorts! I wear them a ton and here is how I like to style them most. I love having the biking shorts be the highlight of my look especially when in animal print, so I keep the rest of the look pretty simple. At the top I would add a crop tee or occasionally go for a long blazer. To pump-up the look, you can even tie a denim shirt or a bomber jacket at your waist. This would make you feel more bad-ass and will make you look street-style cool.

Also, no matter if you're a sneakers or heels type of girl, biking shorts work with both. You can switch it up every time. Most often I wear mine with sneakers even though I'm a heels type of girl because I'm in LOVE with that effortless athleisure style. The one where you didn't try, but you kind of did, because you look BOMB! hahaha!😂

What's your go-to look with a print pair of cycling shorts?

6. Grey Biker Shorts

7. Yellow Biker Shorts

8. Pink Pearl Biker Shorts

9. Black Biker Shorts

10. White Biker Shorts

Next up, you need a PLAIN pair of biker shorts!

Here the opposite applies! Whenever I wear my grey cycling shorts, I let the top be bright and colorful. For example, I would throw on a colorful t-shirt or sweatshirt just because I like that contrast. Some days I go completely monochrome, matching the color of my shorts with my top. That's another really fun way to style your biker shorts.

My all time favorite look is simply adding an oversized t-shirt. This way I get to focus more on the accessories and the vibe of the exact look I'm going after. Plus, I always seem to add a jacket to keep it more interesting. It doesn't mean I'll actually wear it, but I carry it around or tie it around the waist. That to me is the ideal way to wear your cycling shorts. What's yours?

Now all that's left is for me to let you enjoy the Nordstrom sale where you can stock up on all your favorites! Happy shopping! Talk to you soon!!!🥰

Hello everyone,

Here we go again! Back in the car, doing a bit more off-road driving (while crossing my fingers we don't get stuck somewhere for the second time), visiting the well known Jean Dry Lake Bed in Sloan, Nevada. This time, this trip felt more like a backyard outing because this place is super close, only 45 minutes away. It didn't require any long preparation like the previous road trips.

As the name hints, this is an open dry lake. It's very popular when it comes to photo-shoots, videos or films being shot there. For example, "The Hangover" contains some scenes from this dry, yet magical spot.

It was my first time visiting it! I love the simplicity, yet the raw beauty of it. Like the ocean, the eyes see beyond the horizon! Only difference is that the ground here has endless dry spots, which feel like they would crack any minute with every step. How cool is that?

Also, on the way to Jean Dry Lake Bed you can make a stop at the Seven Magic Mountains because they're very close to one another. Practically sisters!!! hahaha! This way you'll explore two very popular locations in Nevada in one go!

For this trip, I'm super EXCITED because I actually got to style two various boho summer looks! Having combined travel and style in one (two of my favorite things), makes me extra HAPPY! I'm ready to share this happiness with you!

The first outfit is something I wear often during the summer...a crop top with any high-waist kind of bottom. I like changing it up from skirts to jeans and even shorts on a daily basis. In this case, I went straight for my ripped mom-jeans,which are so comfy. So comfy that I don't know why I've never been into mom jeans before. I guess, I never thought I could pull them off!

As for the crop top, which is in fact a bikini top. Always got to be prepared for the desert heat. You never know when you might come across a hidden pond. hahaha! Unfortunately, there wasn't one in sight this time, but hey, there's always next time. I have high hopes that our next road trip will involve splashing in the water!

And just like that summer boho looks always involve some kind of fringe for me. Guys, I honestly can't stay away from it!!! Double doze of suede and fringe is the way to go. I've got the light jacket and clutch to make the dry lake feel more alive, playful like a summer concert.

The next BEST thing to wear in the dry desert is a loose, lightweight dress. Won't you agree? Exactly, why I went for this dress of mine. I've forgotten how good it feels to go road tripping in a dress. From now on, I'm thinking to stick to a casual dress...a tank top or a strappy loose style.

With a simple dress like the one I'm wearing here, I mostly like to focus on the accessories. I enjoy stacking and layering everything...rings, bracelets and necklaces. It gives the outfit more personality! In the end, that's what matters right? Personality over looks!!!

Which look do you like better...dress or bikini top+jeans?

I hope you enjoyed this sweet, short and fun road trip to Jean Dry Lake Bed! Have you been here?
