Honest Review of Petite Dressing
I wore this scoop neck sweater to Santa Barbara for the day. It was a chilly day so I wanted to layer it with a mock neck underneath. I paired it with my white jeans with a purple floral print. The colors match really well. This sweater is nice because you can wear it on warmer days or colder days. The knit is an interesting design that has some gaps to let a breeze in, if you want to wear it on a warmer day. When I received this sweater I was pleasantly surprised by the fabric. It’s made from chenille yarn, so it’s super…

RIHOAS Wishlist
The Tie Strap Solid Cami Top The Vintage Floral Mini Dress The Floral See-Through Knitwear The Half-Sleeve Solid Cardigan The Fruit Print Cami Skirt Set The Green Pleated Floral Skirt I’ve been exploring RIHOAS recently and have come across so many amazing items. There is just so many beautiful things on this site. A lot of the clothing has that kind of romantic, whimsical look that I love. My style is super feminine and so are a lot of the the styles that they carry. I can picture myself wearing a lot of these pieces in a romantic location like Italy or Paris. If only…

Floral Puff-Sleeve Top
TOP: H&M (similar) | SHORTS: Target | BAG: H&M | SUNGLASSES: T.J. Maxx I haven’t bought many new clothing items this summer because of everything going on with the pandemic (finances & avoiding shopping too much), but I did get some new things from H&M. Every time I go there I go straight to the sale section because I am a big sucker for clearance clothing. If you have been following my blog for a while, I’m sure you know. But also, their clothes aren’t the best quality so I don’t like to pay full price for them because it’s usually not worth it. This…

Ruffled One-Piece
SWIMSUIT: H&M | SHORTS: Zara | SUNGLASSES: Zero U.V. | EARRINGS: Kate Spade | BEACH BAG: Bath and Body Works (gift) I got this swimsuit about a month and a half ago from H&M. I fell in love with the fabric and style. I actually bought it in a small and had to return it and get an extra small. It’s only available online, but it is so pretty. I’ve been looking for more one-piece swimsuits because I feel like they are more comfortable than bikinis. The only thing that kind of bothers me about this suit is that it is too high-cut, otherwise it would…

A Day in Santa Barbara
DRESS: See You Monday | BAG: T.J. Maxx (similar cute ones) | SANDALS: Forever 21 | NECKLACE: Made myself, supplies from Hobby Lobby | HEADBAND: H&M (similar) | SUNGLASSES: T.J. Maxx My husband and I took a little day trip to Santa Barbara yesterday. It’s only an hour and a half from Los Angeles and we haven’t really spent much time there. When we came to California on vacation several years ago we visited a beach in Santa Barbara. I’m pretty sure that’s all I had done there. I’ve been wanting to go back just to see the city and explore the area. I have to…

How to be Confident Wearing Color
Top: Forever 21 | Pants: Forever 21 | Sandals: Abound This may be a little difficult for me to explain because I’ve personally never had any issues wearing bright colors. I have always been naturally drawn to color. I couldn’t imagine avoiding it. I have just heard people over the span of my life say something along the lines of “I can’t pull that off, it’s too bright.” Based off previous conversations and observations, it seems that a lot of people think that if they wear a bright color it will make them stand out too much. I don’t think this is the case. When…

Road Trip Outfit
TOP: H&M | SHORTS: Target | SCARF: H&M | CARDIGAN: Forever 21 | SNEAKERS: Target This past two days were spent in Big Sur. We drove to Monterey on Friday and got back home in L.A. on Saturday. We left at 6am Friday just to ensure we had enough time to stop at all of the fun places. We have been several times before so it was plenty of time for us. If you have never been, I recommend spending at least 3 days on this trip, especially if you are going to stop at State Parks. I might do another post with…

Big Bear in the Summer
TOP: H&M (still available in stores) | JEANS: Asos | BAG: Walmart | SUNGLASSES: Zero U.V. This past weekend we went back to Big Bear Lake. It’s one of those places that i’ve wanted to bring my future dog to. Now that I have one, we can take him. It’s a little mountain town, surrounding a lake in southern California. We have been there twice before, once in winter and once and once in fall. It’s nice because the weather actually changes there so if we want to remember what seasons feel like, we can go. There are a bunch of hiking trails around the lake and in the mountains, a cute downtown with shops…
