black maxi skirt : from day to night

I'm following suit and taking a que from some of my favorite bloggers (ahem) and showing you all how I would style a maxi for both day and night. This skirt is a dream by the way. I have the hardest time finding maxis that flatter my body! I think I may need to go get the grey one next, it's that good.

day: vest(old) and skirt (free people), shoes: converse, watch: michael kors

night: top(old) and skirt (free people), shoes: steve madden (old)

A simple shoe change and sparkly top can make the world of difference! Check out my little feature over at The Marvelous Flight of Cara. I adore you Cara! xo Happy almost weekend loves.

Nothing compares to a great skirt! The cut made buying this bad boy an easy decision for me. It's unique enough to make a statement, but the material allows me to dress it down as well. I also am loving this cardigan for summer. It's not quite long sleeve and airy enough to throw on top of any outfit. Be prepared to see it on me quite a lot. Also, Free People has the best summer items right now! I always end up walking out of the store with at least 3 things. Woops ;)

Happy Monday!! It's Summer now, so go do somthing fun!

Camera Play : Fashion Photography

I got to play dress up with one of my best friends! Of course she was the one in front of the camera, and me behind it, but I had so much fun! I've been trying different editing techniques lately and like where things are headed. Without further adieu, Kimmie:

Beautiful, right? I'm thinking once I get myself a new camera to replace the stolen one I wouldn't mind taking some pictures to keep my skillz in tact. If you live in the Los Angeles area and would like some photos let me know! You'd be doing me a huge favor, plus we can become real life friends!

Happy Thursday. I am officially on summer vacation (albeit 3 weeks). Wahoo!

My beauty of an older sister let me snap a couple fashion photos for my class (which ends on Wednesday by the way!) near our house (I'll post those soon). Mind you, this wasn't my camera. THAT got stolen, in my classroom, by one of my classmates, within an hour period, the one time I bring it to school. I'm not bitter or anything...still keeping my fingers crossed someone will turn it in!

Back to the outfit. These glasses are so dreamy, aren't they? I've seen the same style on the likes of all my favorite fashion bloggers, except these were only $16! Run, don't walk to your nearest Urban and grab these bad boys :) Also coveting these and these.

Happy Monday! Kick this weeks butt! xo

hometown glory

tee: urban outfitters (old), jeans: hudson, hat: sports chalet, shoes:converse

L.A. will forever be home. Dodgers? Lakers? Kings? Check, check check! I do also go to school

in the heart of downtown, so that doesn't hurt either. I love that this hat can act as another simple accessory. Just throw it on and go. It would even look cute with some braids or your hair down. Is any one else into baseball hats like me? I need some more! xo

a day in the life

ant searching, bubble blowing, a few outfit changes, nummies...what terrible twos??

I'm back! And I had the greatest mini vacation ever. The only downside: it was too mini. I wish I could have stayed longer and enjoyed the pool a bit more, but other than that it was perfect. (These are mostly phone pics! It's too hard to grab the big camera when you're out and about having fun)

I will be dreaming about the warm weather and that pool forever.

I have the best friends.
