What to Wear: 4th of July


4th of July III

1. Poolside/Beach


4th of July

2.   Special Event/Restaurant


4th of July II

3. BBQ




Hey Guys!

4th of July is just around the corner and I created a few outfits inspired by independence day! I love this holiday, it's a time to get together with friends and family, have a BBQ,  and just have a good time while enjoying the fireworks. I created three ideal looks that can actually be worn anywhere for this day. They're basic chic outfits with pops of blue and red, I kept the red minimal since I'm not a huge fan of red too much haha, pops of red are okay though! For 4th of July, I usually try to stick to casual looks and usually finish them off with patriotic colors, stripes, and accessories. This year I think I'm going with an outfit similar to #3. I'm planning to stay by the beach and have a BBQ with friends/ family, can't wait! Which is your favorite look?


Hope you guys enjoy your 4th of July!

Hope you guys enjoyed your weekend!
 Here are some quickie snaps from this past Friday strolling around my old neighborhood in LBC. I love this boho/artsy neighborhood you will surely find random cute cafes and shops hidden in between houses and artsy walls in the most random-est places. It might be a little hipster but it's imperfect and super artsy which is why I love it!
 I checked out Summer and Music (SAM) festival yesterday and got to snap a few pics with one of my fave musicians/artist, Devendra Banhart! Stay tuned for that post! :)

Seal Beach was the spot to go during the summer solstice and golden hour! I mean what better place to be at than the beach right? I LOVE golden hour it makes for the best pictures and you can't beat a view/sunset like that! Did you guys catch the strawberry moon? I saw it but did not get around to snapping a pic...it clearly left me speechless haha, it was quite a sight though! 

Hope you guys are enjoying these first summer days, the weekend is almost here and I've got a few summer events to attend...can't wait!

Cooling off with cucumber infused h2o



Hey loves!

Here's a quickie recap of this past weekend, it was pretty chill since I spent it mostly catching up with family at the park and lounging around at home with my cute pup.  We've been having a heatwave here in SoCal so staying cool with great tunes and iced infused h2o is the way to go!

Hope you all enjoyed your weekend, more pictures coming your way!
