The other day at work I was approached by one of my students asking me to answer a few questions for his Spanish class. I thought the interview would be related to culture or language, but instead he proceeded to ask me questions about the environment and what I was doing to help it. Was I recycling? What kind of produce did I shop for? I was pleasantly surprised at how aware he was of these issues and the type…
I’m not gonna lie. I would have not bought these pants a few years ago.. I don’t even think I had anything of this color in my closet. I was afraid of the mustard. I wasn’t taking risks and honestly I was unhappy with the way I was dressing. This was when I was in college, by the way, because in high school I won “best dressed” award! Haha! Back then, I wanted to pursue a career in fashion and wear all the…
Animal prints are in and are here to stay. Honestly, though, I feel like they’ve always had a place in my closet. I have a cheetah print oversized jacket/sweater, a few leopard & cheetah print shirts and even cheetah print pumps. I love how a good animal print piece can instantly spice up an outfit. One thing to keep in mind, however, is not going overboard with prints. It’s easy to get carried away, or to end up looking like a Jersey…
Lately I’ve been wearing a lot of neutrals.. actually who am I kidding, I always wear neutrals! With the exception of some bold pieces in my closet, everything is pretty much black, white or a neutral shade. With Fall around the corner, I know for a fact I’m going to be speaking neutrals with every outfit I put together. I love wearing black with everything and honestly there’s something devilishly pleasing about wearing white during the fall/winter. With the exception…
Hello there! We’re back from vacation and honestly the ten days we spent there were not enough! We started our trip in Los Angeles, then drove up the coast to San Francisco, making a few stops along the way. The views of the coast from Hw 1 are surreal and honestly I can talk about it all day long, but I wanted this post to be specifically about what I wore during the trip.. so let’s get that started! ps.…
Let’s talk crop tops. Can we agree they are definitely in right now? I mean, girls are basically making their own by cutting up old (and new) t-shirts. There are so many different types of crop tops, that I honestly can’t get enough! I’ve been wearing them all summer and I’m not sure I’ll slow it down too much when fall and winter hit. I might be cutting up my sweaters too… kidding. Anyway, I have to admit I…
I’ve been on the market for good summer shorts for a while now and I just found my luck last weekend. I wanted shorts that looked sexy but didn’t show too much skin (butt cheek) and that weren’t too tight but tight enough so that again.. sexy. Catch my drift? I’ve always had a hard time finding the perfect pair for my body. My thighs are not the thinnest so a lot of the time the shorts fit too tight…
Target has been my go-to store for years now, and if you’ve been reading my blog, you know that’s very true. I used to shop at Target a lot when I was in college. They carried everything I needed for my dorm, makeup, and other toiletries, but honestly I didn’t really shop their clothes. I wasn’t crazy about the brands they carried at the time and felt that for the price, I could find something trendier at Forever 21. Fast…
I have a confession.. I hate shaving my legs. And I have a feeling I’m not alone. Don’t get me wrong though, I love showing some leg and wearing shorts, skirts, and dresses. It’s actually my favorite part of summer! But inevitably, on some days I just don’t feel like complying with the rules of summer. I want to wear pants. I just don’t feel like showing skin. Lucky us, there are plenty of solutions available, from ripped jeans (like ripped…
Date nights with my husband are my favorite part of the week. I love getting dressed up, deciding on a dinner spot, and having long conversations over wine. Lately we’ve been opting for a movie night at Alamo Drafthouse or Studio Movie Grill. Call us lazy, but we love being able to eat in front of the screen. They’ve just opened a new Alamo Drafthouse minutes from our house, so guess where you’ll find us most weekends.. there! Last weekend we had a movie…
