Pretty Florals

Bustier Top- Lush, Skirt- Urban Outfitters, Bag/Boots- Forever 21, Rings- H&M, Bracelets- DIY

The weather has been (knock on wood) beautiful!  On the first warm day, I dragged the bf out to Santee Alley for a little bargain shopping and even though I left empty-handed, just being outside made me a happy girl.

I bought this top from a local shop on Melrose a few months ago and honestly, I don't know why.  I'm not a midriff-baring-chick.  Might be the color or the subtle cutouts, but I left the store with it and it's been collecting dust in the closet ever since.  I thought pairing this bustier with a high-waisted, a-line skirt was a more 'conservative' way of wearing this top and simply more me.

What are your impulse buy?

I wish it was warmer so I can prance around town baring my legs!

Party Planning

A few friends and I celebrated the Lover Boy's birthday a couple of weeks ago and I am surprisingly pleased with the outcome, not to toot-my-own-horn, but I hear it was an 'amazing' party!  HAHA  Here is a glimpse of the night:

I'm sorry I didn't share the planning process with you guys, the Lover Boy reads my blog from time to time and since it was a surprise party, I didn't want to be the one to ruin it.

And yes, that's me in the second picture, indulging in some tacos.  HAHA

Venue: Catchlight Studios

Caterer:  My Taco Man

Decorating and planning was done by yours truly! XO

A Little Rock & Roll

Forever 21- Top/Shorts/Belt/Boots, Marc by MJ- Watch, H&M- Rings

My favorite gals and I had a little staycation this weekend in Newport Beach and while it was sunny in LA, it wasn't near the beach.  Hence the outfit pictures taken from our hotel hallway.  I couldn't bare the wind or the light rain.  Sad face.

I think I have a slight obsession with these cutoff shorts!  I bought 4 pairs just last week and I have 2 more pending on a wishlist from Urban Outfitters.  I need help or I wish shopping wasn't so accessible.

Neon Brights

Dress- Forever 21, Shoes- Unknown from a street vendor, Random DIY bracelets

I'm really digging the bright, eye-blinding, neon colors!  Maybe a little too much since I'm wearing this lime crochet dress with some coral booties.  These pictures somehow toned down the vividness HAHA

Two Wheelers Fun

Top- Brandy Melville, Shorts- Levi's, Shoes- Converse, and random DIY bracelets

Yesterday, LA closed ten miles of it's streets to bicyclists, skateboarders, roller bladers, and walkers in an awesome event called CicLAvia.  What is Ciclavia you ask?  It was created to encourage people to go out and enjoy the city.  This event makes the streets safe for people to walk, skate, play and ride a bike; while connecting the communities and giving the public a break from the stress of traffic, not to mention temporarily cutting the pollution and congestion.  With the rise in obesity, I think this is one of the movements worth supporting! If you're in the LA area, check the website for the next event! 

While all of my favorite bloggers and celebrities were rockin' at Coachella I was staying local, enjoying all the fun activities LA has to offer and trying not to think about missing out on the iconic Cali music festival. There's always next year...

P.S. My butt and legs are very sore from cruising LA and that just reminds me I should go back to the gym.  HAHAHA  Wish me luck, I heard the pain in day 2 is the worst :(
