OOTD | Spring Forward

February 28, 20162 Comments

Is it spring yet?! The weather in California seems to be confused lately. Some days are sweltering hot, while others are gloomy and chilly. The weekend before last was one of those perfect California winter days though, with the weather right in between.

My cousin and I decided to dress up a bit. It was her birthday and we were also celebrating Galentine’s Day. She wore a blue jean dress while I wore a floral winged romper.

She dressed up her outfit with a vintage purse, a thrift store find, and handmade sandals from Mexico.

I wore my Lucky Brand studded gladiator sandals and small tan Marc Jacobs cross body purse.

We had a great time exploring Old Town Pasadena and ate to our heart’s content. Check out my previous post to see what we were up to.

OOTD | New Year, Same Shoes

January 3, 20165 Comments

Happy 2016 lovelies! It’s a New Year, but the same me. 😜 Went for a ‘kind of’ hike up Soledad Mountain in San Diego the other day. I say ‘kind of’ because we drove to the top, then “hiked up” the set of stairs. 🙂 teehee

It was sweater weather. The sun was out and the sky such a vibrant blue. The view from the top of the mountain is incredible. You can see the whole La Jolla coast.

I wore my favorite studded booties in tan, a black and white plaid shirt, jeggings, and light grey pull-over.

I love the ribbed texture of the pull-over. The material is so soft and warm.

In the spirit of the holidays, I went with a dark red polish.

I kept the accessories simple with a black Betsey Johnson bow ring and small black Marc Jacobs clutch.

How did you celebrate the first day of the New Year?

XOXO

OOTD | Winter Blues & Plaid

December 12, 2015December 12, 20153 Comments

Happy Saturday lovelies! ❤️ Hope you are having a good weekend. It’s been wintertime bootie weather here in SoCal. I recently got this long flannel plaid hoodie from the Nordstrom Rack and paired it with suede dark grey leggings and a thick navy C & C t-shirt. The back of the hoodie is long enough to cover your bum and the material is thick enough to protect you from the slight wind chill. I love the knee detail on the leggings and the metal embroidery on the booties which gives this outfit a more of an edgy look. Hope this outfit inspires you!

Being normal is boring.

XOXO

OOTD: Endless Summer Pastels

November 22, 20151 Comment

Slightly shy of Thanksgiving, smack in the middle of November, that California endless summer, neither fall nor winter in sight.

This weekend was a beautiful 85* by the beach. Days like these remind me of why I don’t miss winters in New York. Like many of you can relate, I spend the majority of my week stuck indoors in an office. Yes, I am by a window, but often times find myself so busy I don’t even remember to look outside. I live for the weekend. These are the few days I get to relax and do whatever I want, go wherever I want, wear whatever I want. Be F R E E. So the most important thing for me is to spend that time outside. Especially in days like these. Where summer continues to defy fall and the ocean breeze brings about a sense of peace. That endless summer.

Palm Trees, Ocean Breeze, Salty Air, Sun Kissed Hair. That Endless Summer, Take Me There.

Here is the outfit that I wore to catch the Newport sunset. It felt strange picking out shorts when just days before it felt like fall was approaching. But the weather was undeniable. I went with pastels – pink and lavender – and a large statement necklace in the same color palette.
