Cool Mix.

 Dress: Edun || Blazer: BCBG (similar here) || Bag: Alexander Wang || Sneakers: Converse || Necklace: gifted Albeit

Ideal outfit for a long, busy day for many reasons:
1. Its easy and effortless
2. Comfortable to move around in especially with the sneaks
3. Print mixing makes for a good look
4. This tote literally is the best thing ever- literally FITS EVERYTHING!
(post to come for What's in my bag)
5. Lastly, I feel pretty damn good in it.

have a fun filled weeked.

Forward Fashion Project, #3

Coat: Gryphon (Bib + Tuck) | Blouse: MYNE | Shorts: Johnson | Clutch: Claire Vivier | Sneakers: Jack Purcell Converse | Prescription Glasses: Warby Parker

Third round of Bib + Tuck's Forward Fashion Project is up next and I got this pretty 
sick Gryphon coat to style up! Was pretty excited to wear this coat since I don't have anything like it- it's fresh, its cool and I knew I had to play with different patterns to make it more interesting.
The coat was perfect for the L.A weather we are having right now- between 70-80 degrees- it was light enough to cover me from the chilly breeze.
Since i've been on a sneaker marathon (forget the heels!), I decided to pair up my on-the-go look with my new Purcell's to run around town in getting my errands done.
I love that it dresses down this whole look without it looking too simple.
To finish off the look, I threw on my fave glasses to wear for the whole day (not just to drive like I always do) and braided my hair- ended up taking off the braid because it just wasn't doing it for me, 
it happens sometimes, right?
Stay tuned for round 4!

Midnight.


Finally breaking in these beauties that one of my bff's gave me as a birthday gift!
Love the faded blue tip- swooon.

Update: Many of you asked if these were hard to walk in and the answer is yes-
They're a lil too high and kinda scary to walk in but I think after wearing them
a lot, you'll get used to the heel...or not.
I still laa-ve 'em.

Foxy Faux.

Faux fur vest: Thrifted (cool ones here & here)  | Dress: H&M | Oxfords: GAP | Bag: Miu Miu |

Picked this faux fur vest at the Long Beach flea market last weekend and so happy I did ( I contemplated quite a lot whether to take it or not). After trying it on a couple of times, putting it on hold and walking around to see if I found something better, I ended up coming back and buying it. 
Really happy I did; its so warm, cozy and perfect for the cold weather in nyc next month!
Details on that later!
Hope you guys have a fresh new week,
xo
ps- love these oxfords and how they funky up my outfits.

Forward Fashion Project, #2

Clutch: Emily Cho c/o Bib + Tuck | Blouse: gifted d.RA | Sweater: my Beloved | Jeans: gifted Kasil x Taylor Jacobson | Heels: Alexander Wang | Sunglasses: Marc by Marc Jacobs


Finally received my second item for the Forward Fashion Project a couple days ago! Was a little skeptical on how I was going to wear it because it seemed too fancy for what I normally wear, but I was totally up for the challenge.... it's what I signed up for anyway.

So as you know, I love dressing things down (must be the Cali in me) so I threw on this cool and versatile sweater I picked up earlier this week. The neutral color of the sweater definitely makes a good contrast against the color & print of the clutch, I'm all about the right balance, ya know?
I also did love that the clutch was big enough to fit my camera and ipad- talk about a handy bag!
Keep checking in to see what's next!
happy thursday!

2. My array of different perfumes for each day of the week! Fave? YSL, Jo Malone + Chloe!
3. My go-to jewelry drawer full of friendship bracelets!
4. When I'm feeling extra fancy, I throw on my falsies (Ardell in 110)  + YSL polish & lipgloss.
5. My prettier necklaces displayed on these foil coated antlers I picked up at Urban Oufitters + my gorgeous gold chunky necklace from my sis!
6. My armswag + my collaboration Knot ring with Miss Artigas + gel nails!

xo!

the Americana at Brand.

( the final ad in Los Angeles magazine- love the cute layout!)

So excited to share this shoot!
Back in December, I had the absolute pleasure of working with one of my most favorite places- the Americana at Brand (which is a complete one-stop shop/dine/entertainment outdoor
shopping mall in Glendale, CA)  The ad campaign which comes out every month features one of their favorite local tastemakers where they spend a whole day at the Americana shopping and eating at their favorite places while sharing what they love most about the Americana! I was lucky- and flattered, to be chosen to be a part of this super fun campaign for the month of January. We visited and shopped at some of my fave stores like Barney's CO OP, Free People, Madewell, Sephora, H&M and ate a delicious italian sandwhich at Deluca's while being photographed.
I had such an amazing time spending the whole day at the Americana and getting to know such inspirational team of women behind this project.

The shoot was shot by the super talented and sweet Jennifer Young whose cute blog you can find here.
Definitely planning on working with Jen again since I LOVED her work- hii Jen!
Thank you to the Americana for making me a part of this campaign...and a special thank you to
the lovely Haewan Addis for putting it together, Jennifer for shooting such amazing shots and the genius Cleo Murane for being the creative force behind it and everyone else involved.

Hope you guys enjoy!

Running Around.

 Blouse: Zara | Bag: Theyskens Theory | Jacket: ASOS | Triangle Gold necklace: c/o Albeit Jewelry | Flats: Zara (similar here) | Watch: c/o Fossil 'Riley
 Shades: Ray Ban Aviators

This past weekend was filled with lots of fun to-do's and since I had to run around a lot, it was only logical to dress comfortably. Threw on my trusty flats and finished off the day without any pain- always a plus.
Few things happening soon so I'll keep you guys in the loop once I know more!

Forward Fashion; #1

 Dress: Cut25 c/o Bib + Tuck | Jacket: c/o Volcom | Heels: Calvin Klein | Bag: Alexander Wang |

Currently experiencing a warm winter here in the city of angels, and although I don't mind running around in bare legs, shorts, flats, dresses and sunglasses- jealous?- it does get a little nippy in the late afternoon forcing me to throw on a light weight scarf/jacket while also adding a pop of color!

Anyway, in cooler news... I'm pretty thrilled to be involved in Bib + Tuck's Forward Fashion Project where 10 bloggers will style, blog then swap 10 pieces from 10 different designers over the course of 10 weeks... whew! That was a lot of 10's!
To kick off the project, my first item I received was this amazing body-con Cut25 dress! 
Stay tuned next week for my 2nd item and how I style it- I have no idea what's coming
next so I'm super excited!
