I love mixing prints (as we all do)... especially when they are subtle like these stripes and polka dots. It's so easy and laid back. The pop of this neon bag also makes the outfit a little more unique. It was so easy for my trip home to have dinner with the fam. 

I can't wait to hike and relax these next couple days. What are your guys' plans this weekend?!

I’m back! I had the most amazing time in New York!!! I am seriously considering movie there…or at least being bi-coastal hahaha. There is so much to do and see there. It makes LA seem so boring! I can’t wait to share my pictures with you guys.

There were so many fashionable girls there wearing a lot of casual looks and tons of denim which inspired this outfit. The girls there are so much different than LA girls… so much more casual, less make up and a more relaxed, thrown together last minute looks. Definitely not what I expected. I might have been the only girl wearing heels a couple of the nights. It was crazy! But kinda refreshing to actually see a girl’s face instead of her caked on makeup.

Hope you all had a fabulous week. Blogging is definitely time consuming as I’m sure you all know but I’m so excited to jump back in it after my short break. So stay tuned!

Happy Friday noodles!!! Work is getting so tedious I find myself already looking forward to the weekends on like Tuesdays. Geez. But at least it's here! Do you guys have any fun summer plans?

I just love mixing prints as I think we all do... so i decided to go with a striped crop with my high wasted floral shorts. I got these shorts last summer at Wasteland and have gotten a lot of great use out of them. I would definitely pair this ourfit with some cute flats or chucks but these were the only shoes I had handy at my parent's house... don't judge... we've all worn shorts with heels at one point in our lives or another right?!

Toby Tyler

Isn't Toby such a cutey cutey?! My sister rescued him about 2 years ago and he's really grown on me (for unfortunately not being much of a dog lover). But he just rolled over and put his little nose in the flower like he know someone was taking a picture of him. How can you not love that big shedding lug?

 Get out those skirts and bright colors it's getting warm outside! It's so easy to turn this skirt into a million different outfits especially in this cream color. And I'm really loving all the flowers of the summer like sunflowers, peonies and hydrangeas- hint hint Kev.

I feel like such a little lady in this outfit! I got this skirt at the American Apparel outlet last Christmas and had never worn in until now! I need to cut down on the amount of times that happens to me in a year... I'm going to have to start pulling it out more often. I love the chunky stacked necklaces with this look too. It makes me wanna take a stroll to the park or sip some tea or something. The wallet is another amazing find at F21... I have to give the credit to my roomy Ashley for spotting it this weekend. They still have them in the stores and online just click on the link!! 

Are you wearing any pants?!

It was so gloomy and cold out today I decided to throw on my roomies comfy Brandy Sweater. I love wearing baggy sweaters and long sleeves over short girly skirts (yes, there is a skirt under there). I think it looks stylish and is super flattering. Show off those legs! 

Man are my Jeffrey's getting beat up with all the wear I've gotten out of them. I want a new pair but I'm not allowed to shop until I get to NYC! Oh ya baby, I am finally going to New York with my boyfy Kevin. I have never been and am so so so excited. But I want to be able to do a TON of shopping there so I promised myself I wouldn't hit the mall (yes, that includes ZARA..sad face) until I get there. But the saving will all be worth it right?! Keep me honest guys!

Pink Pom Poms

Shirt: American Apparel // Skirt: Random // Suede Heels: Steve Madden // Necklace: Forever 21

 Such a beautiful weekend! We had the perfect venue and weather to host a good friends bridal shower on Saturday down in La Jolla. Flowers and pink pom poms were everywhere. I wore this high wasted bright pink skirt and paired it with a burgundy chiffon top with poofy sleeves to take full advantage of getting to dress super girly for the event.

Styling tip: If you have bright colored bottom (skirt, pants... whatever) instead of paring it with the usual white or black top pick another color that compliments it and really makes your outfit unique and unexpected. People will notice!
