OOTD: Turkey edition!

Standard

Hey!  As I mentioned before, I spent almost 2 weeks visiting Turkey! The place? Amazing!!!! Absolutely loved it!! I have a few more posts related to that, but here is an outfit of the day that I wore in Cappadocia, which is in the Central Anatolian region of Turkey.

In Cappadocia!!

This shirt is from The Gap.  I picked it up because I loved the watercolour effect and it was a bright bluish green! I could not resist standing in front of the red door of our hotel.  Shout out to all the staff at the Hezen Cave Hotel!! Seriously the best place ever!  I definitely stood out against the rock formation backdrop of the region.  I paired it with some jeans from Old Navy (Sweetheart cut, Skinny) and leather slippers.  I kept the makeup simple, bronzey colours and black eyeliner and mascara.  See some of my travel essentials here and also check out these wedges that I wore partying in Bodrum!!

What have been your faves to wear in hot weather??
