Hey guys!

Hope you all enjoyed your long 4th of July weekend,  this past weekend I ended up catching up on some sleep and hanging out in LA, oh how I missed it so!

We went around Silver Lake and downtown, which was great because there wasn't too much traffic as expected. I finally got to catch up with my sister and my nephew... I always love our little adventures! We mostly went around Melrose Place and Silver Lake and even checked out this eatery called Pine & Crane for lunch, which was sooooo good guys! If you're into dumplings, noodles, and other veggie options then this is the place for you! We tried a bit of everything like their popular "Dan Dan noodles", spicy shrimp wontons, and the beef rolls. The food was delicious and so was their Jasmine milk tea. The overall atmosphere was great and of course I loved their interior decor and set up!

Afterwards we ended up in downtown LA's Grand Park to relax and catch some rays. 

Summer is definitely here :)

Wearing:

Linen shirt (bought in a random shop in Paris)

Steve Madden sunnies 

Vintage Lee's shorts

H&M leather sandals  

Poshmark rattan bag

Melrose Place

Alfred Tea Room

So many options...

Cool paper plane installation at Grand Park in DTLA

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!
