Our last day in Seattle was the most beautiful weather we could’ve asked for. We woke to sunny skies shining through our window which was a joy to see after having cloudy mornings the rest of the trip. We drank our coffee with the views of downtown from our room, got ready, and headed in the direction of the space needle to explore that part of the city.
We’d already seen gorgeous views of the city skyline riding the Seattle Great Wheel the night before, so we skipped the space needle and walked down to Elliott Bay. The scenery was everything we could’ve asked for! We spent the morning lounging on the sun-bleached rocks, soaking in the sun and dipping our toes in the cool, crystal clear water of the Puget Sound.
Since I knew it would be a warm day, I pulled out some of my favorite summery items, like this ivory silk camisole (last worn on the blog here) and these white linen joggers (last worn here). I also brought along this striped seersucker jacket that I’ve had since last year. It’s my favorite light jacket to layer on when it’s warm but a little breezy! Although it was warm enough to go without it, I was glad to have it for covering up so my shoulders didn’t get too much sun.
We could’ve easily stayed here all day basking in the beautiful weather, but we eventually tore ourselves away. After eating lunch at a nearby spot called CJ’s eatery, we headed back to our hotel to change and rest our feet before spending the afternoon exploring a different part of the city.

September 19, 2017 atHi Tristan,
I had a friend who interned at the Nordstrom HQ in Seattle, but she described it as cloudy/rainy most of the time. Looking at these photos, you really did luck out with the weather. It looks absolutely beautiful there, and I’m very inspired to visit one day. Glad you enjoyed your trip!
xo,
Ashley
