Beach Daze

Happy Fri-YAY!

I'm about to head out of town for the the long weekend (woop woop!), but before I do I wanted to share one of my favorite summer looks - ripped jeans + bare feet! I can't tell you how many pairs of ripped jeans I own. I live in these during the spring/summer seasons. The jeans pictured are from Brandy Melville and are the most distressed ones I own (also the ones I wear the most). I had no idea how often I would grab these (even though strangers always ask me, "Did you buy those like that? LOL"), but I LOVE everything about them!

I paired the jeans with a super delicate embroidered top from Free People + a Wildfox sweater to throw on top! And for the shoes, you ask? None! I take my shoes off any chance I get, and the beach is the perfect place to let your feet breathe and feel your toes in the sand. 

This look is comfortable, casual, and I just feel like ME! That's the best feeling, when you find a look that just feels right. Although sometimes I will go for a more chic look, this beachy San Diego look will always be a go-to! 

Happy Memorial Day babes!

Happy Fri-YAY!

It's been such a crazy week... this girl is SO ready for the weekend! But first, I want to share a new 'fit of course. My birthday was last month, and my sweet, stylish mother took it upon herself to pick me out a few outfits.. and she killed it! In fact, she picked these two out together and I think I squealed when I opened them up. My mom has been trying so hard to understand my style for the last few years (which is not easy because it's always changing...), and this is the most spot on she has ever been!

I am a sucker for anything lace-up right now, so the top was an obvious winner. Not to mention, the detailing in the sleeves & bust is amazing. The skirt is actually one that I had been eyeing at Free People for a few months, but never got my hands on. I know the combo seems quite fall-ish, but I'm a firm believer in rocking neutrals all year long. I can see myself grabbing the skirt this summer with a crop top and denim jacket, and pairing the top with some levi cut-offs (of course).

I hope everyone has a beautiful weekend!

Hello loves!

I can't believe it's almost May... I'm sorry for the lack of posting for the past month, life has just been crazy busy! I just wrapped up a month at my new job, I'm still working at Free People (super part-time), and I usually fill all of my free time in with trying to have a social life. However, I definitely want to make sure I make more time for blogging in May.

I have SO many outfits to share this month, but I thought I would start with something that's back from the past... denim minis! The high-waisted mini has been in style for quite some time now, but the low-rise style (that I wore in 8th grade) is one I thought might never come back. I bought the skirt in black so that it can be paired with almost anything, and I love it here with a loose Amuse Society tee. It's soft, has a pocket, and is the perfect fit.

I love that I have almost completely shifted to wearing summer clothes, and I can't wait to share more!

San Francisco

Happy Friday everyone!

Today I want to share some pics from my recent girls weekend in San Francisco. I headed up to the city for an extended weekend trip with 3 of my best friends from college. I had been to the city once before for a short trip, but there was so much I hadn't seen! Of course I headed to all of the tourist spots: The Golden Gate Bridge, Dolores Park, The Painted Ladies, etc. But, I was also able to check out some local spots. One of my girlfriends actually lives in the city so we were lucky enough to have a place to stay (and a beautiful tour guide).

It was pouring rain the first two days, but that didn't stop us from exploring the city. I loved all of the street art and the alleys filled with murals and artwork. Obviously, I found these to be the perfect backdrop for some OOTD pics, and I tried my best to channel my inner street style during this trip. I was so excited to bust out a leather jacket I just got, along with my bean and some new sweaters that I haven't been able to wear in San Diego lately.

The view of the Golden Gate Bridge was amazing, and the view of the city from Dolores Park was breathtaking... but, let's talk about the shopping!! Of course I made sure to set aside some shopping time in Union Square. The Levi's store there is NEXT LEVEL!! This is also where I found the coolest patched denim jacket (my favorite purchase from the trip) pictured below. I popped into a few boutique shops, and loved seeing the SF street style that the local's rocked. Although my style tends to be more boho than chic, I definitely love to experiment with my street style whenever I find myself in a big city!

The rest of my trip consisted of eating amazing food, enjoying happy hour drinks, and staying up all night giggling with my best friends. This was definitely a MUCH needed trip, and I can't wait to return back to the city one day for more adventures!

I hope everyone has a great weekend! I'll be prepping for the start of my NEW JOB on Monday! Can't wait to share all the deets.

Spring Essentials

Happy spring babes!!

My wardrobe caters to warm weather, so I'm pretty excited about this change in season, and I wanted to share an outfit featuring some of my favorite spring styles. One of my go-to styles this spring/summer will definitely be off-the-shoulder tops, and this Free People one hits the spot. I love the simplicity of the top, and I know I will get a ton of wear out of it.
I paired the top with some Levi cut-offs and my tall black gladiators. Let's be honest... you can never have enough denim cut-offs, and Levis has been killin' it lately. And when it comes to shoes, you'll always find me in some type of strappy sandal or some Birks.

I was super excited to feature this adorable cactus choker and fringe cross-body because I actually just won them in an Instagram giveaway! These pieces are totally my style and I can't wait to show them off all season long. I will always have some sort of fringe on my purse, and I am going through a major choker obsession at the moment, so these two styles are definitely on my list of spring essentials.

I will be blogging later this week about my girls trip to San Francisco last weekend (and all of the amazing walls I found in the city), but for now here's some more pics of my spring look!

Spring Fling

Warmer weather means it's time for little dresses, and I couldn't wait to bust this Flynn Skye goodness out of my closet. I've had this dress since last season, but it's such a classic piece. The floral print is gorgeous, the cut is perfect, and I feel like summertime when I wear it.

I paired the dress with some clogs and some silver bracelets (per usual). I also threw on one of my lovely leather neck ties to add a little bit of edge to this girly look. 

I am so excited to continue to transition into more spring and summer inspired looks, and document them along the way of course!
