Peter Pan in Polka Dots

Shirt: F21 (Similar Here) | Shorts: F21 | Shoes: Steven by Steve Madden | Watch: Michael Kors |Necklace: King Fisher Road

I can’t believe I have another entire outfit from Forever 21... don’t judge me. I love this little Peter Pan collar though! It’s so feminine and chic. I am starting to think that polka dots are going to be the next big trend. I have never wanted to wear polka dots in my life and for some reason I am on the prowl for them now. I really want some high wasted navy blue shorts with white polka dots…how cute would that be and I’m sure pretty easy to find. What do you guys think will be the next big trend?

2 Piece

Top: Free People | Banded Skirt: Angl | Cross Necklace: Brandy Melville | Wedges: Steven by Steve Madden | Earings: King Fisher Road | Bangles: F21 | Lipstick: MAC Blankety

My night on the town outfit! I got to spend the night out on Saturday with all my girlfriends at Greystone in West Hollywood. I strongly believe that GoGo dancers, a fog machine and paper confetti falling from the ceiling are a sneaky trick used to make you feel like you are having more fun than you actually are. But it worked! 5 drinks, lots of Rihanna and one man that pretended like he didn't smell like Abercrombie later, we somehow found our way home in one piece... pretty much.

Fairfax Flee Market


Every Sunday they have the most amazing flee market at Fairfax high school. You are guaranteed to never walk out empty handed. I wanted to share some of my favorites finds with you guys from this past weekend!

Shabby chic frames in every color
Neon studded bracelets
Denim and patchwork sweetheart crop tops
Denim cut offs in every color possible!
Vendor after vendor...
Awesome graphic T's and muscle shirts
Tons of jewelry...ooo I get happy just looking at it
Best find of the day...shoulder padded sequined little nugget of dreams!

All in all, I have to say we really made out. I can't wait to share more photos from the rest of my weekend with you later this week :) 

My boyfriend Kevin finally got home from his 5 day trip to Cabo today! But I have to say that I had a super fun weekend with my girls. Hiking, Dodger game (Dug out club whoop whoop!) I even went to a club to groove it up on the dace floor!! (hadn't done that in a while) flee market, movies and laying out by the pool. Geez I wish every weekend was 3 days long. 
Now back to reality! At least its a short week...

Have a great day :)

Chambray Girl

The Versatile Blogger Award <3

I want to thank Amanda at Color the Coast  and Naty at A Love Affair with Fashion for both giving me the Versatile blogger award in the same day!


I've really been wanting an oversized denim blazer but couldn't seem to find one anywhere until I came across this one at Forever 21. I can't wait to discover more and more ways to wear it.
Blazer: F21 | Tank: Madewell | Shorts: F21 | Heels: Zara | Long Necklace: Brandy Melville | Bracelets: F21, Brandy, American Eagle

I love that this blazer is dressed up and dressed down at the same time. I could take off my heels and wear this outfit all weekend with some flats! And my trusty black shorts are always a staple. Forever 21 is really doing me right lately.

Shopping tip: If you find something you like but it's more than you want to pay, always take a look at more price conscious stores like Forever 21before you purchase. I almost always find a version of what I like for less :)

Enjoy your long weekend! It's time to pull out that bathing suite you've been dying to wear. Try to hit the beach or a pool with a nice summer cocktail in hand and some good music with friends and fam. That's what I'll be doing!

Ombre

Shirt: Zara | Jeans: Random Jeggings | Belt: Urban Outfitters | Wedges: From one of those cheap BOGO stores on the mall?

I'm sorry all the stuff I'm wearing is from such random places I can't even tell you lol. But the star here is this cutey ombre shirt from Zara so at least I have that for you!
I cannot believe it isn't Friday yet. UGH. My main sqeeze is on his way to Cabo right now  and I'm stuck in LA for the long weekend. Jealousy is overwhelming my brain. Hopefully he'll bring me back something nice (and tan his white butt).

Have a great day!

My New Brandy Shirt...
Shirt: Brandy Melville | Shorts: Random | Wedges: Steven by Steve Madden

I scored this Brandy shirt from a Secret Santa gift exchange last Christmas...I definitely got the best gift (thanks Maxy!). I just love anything from Brandy Melville. I obsessed over these wedges for a while before I gave in and bought them too. But I did get my money's worth.

Cheap Date


Unbelievably, my entire outfit is from the one and only Forever 21. I wanted a strait fitting dress and picked up this diamond in the rough a couple weeks ago. When I saw it in the store, it was about 6 inches longer than it is now though, so I took a chance and had it hemmed when I got home. And to make it even better, when I went to the checkout counter it was 50% off so I only spent $9.00! I got these peep toe boots there last year as well and thought I’d give them a chance to see daylight once again. Oh, and the spiked bracelet is from Brandy Melville. Please excuse the hair band on my other wrist. Hope you likey!

I also want to say thank you to What2Wear for giving me my first Liebster Award! I will be posting about that later! Woohooo!

Have a wonderful day in the sun,
Shawn

Lime Sherbert


Shirt: Zara (similar here) | Pants: Madewell | Wedges: Zara | Necklace: Urban Outfitters

I stole this house covered in pretty flowers and a white picket fence to take pics in front of this weekend. Let’s just pretend it’s mine. It went well with my bright lime green muscle tank and white jeans.
I had a chance to work on my tan this weekend. Hope you guys did too! AND I didn’t do one minute of shopping!…I have to say I’m pretty proud of my self control. I could hear Ventura Blvd calling my name!

Happy Monday!
Xoxo

Simplicity

My laid back dress loose and comfy
and adding a little belt...
Dress: LF | Belt: Urban Outfitters | Strappy Heels: Zara | Studded Gold Bracelet: Madewell

Photos by: Ashley Alan-lee

This dress is a couple years old now from LF but is still one of my all time favorites and definitely a Go-To staple. I love wearing it loose or with a belt. I have been obsessing over these Zara heels and kept wishing I had them every morning when I got dressed so I finally got with it and ordered them online. They are SO cute! Yay! 

Have a good day!
