Black

Dress & Boots - Alexander Wang / Sweater - BM / Hat - Goorin Bros.

Hey... oooh...

Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did.
All five horizons revolved around her soul as the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn

Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore

And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds of what was everything.
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

- Pearl Jam

Hat's have been my most lusted after piece lately...

And finding a great one does take some time but let me tell you...

 Check out Goorin Bros because they are amazing and the real deal when it comes to hats.

I instantly fell in love and own 2 now.

I've been wearing them with literally everything but I especially love how they look with a chic dress!

Give a Little Bit

Top & Dress - Brandy Melville / Boots - Matiko on Solestruck / Jacket - Nasty Gal

Give a little bit
Give a little bit of your love to me
Give a little bit
I'll give a little bit of my love to you
There's so much that we need to share
Send a smile and show you care

I'll give a little bit
I'll give a little bit of my love to you
So give a little bit
Give a little bit of your time to me
See the man with the lonely eyes
Take his hand, you'll be surprised

Give a little bit
Give a little bit of your love to me
I'll give a little bit of my love for you
Now's the time that we need to share
So find yourself, we're on our way back home

Going home
Don't you need to feel at home?
Oh yeah, we gotta sing

- Supertramp

Now even though I wear boots year round,

I'm officially happy that boot season has arrived!

And how about these pretty's by Matiko avail on Solestruck?!

I love how they are printed AND have the wrap around buckle to toughen them up a bit.

In an outfit with all black these boots would look killer and really pop!

Infinity

Skirt - Friend of Mine / Tank - BM / Choker & Rings - Vanessa Mooney / Boots - JC

After all the time
After you
Had you seen me with someone new
Hanging so high for your return
But the stillness is a burn

Had I seen it in your eyes
There'd have been no try after try
Your leaving had no goodbye
Had I just seen one in your eyes

I can't give it up
To someone elses touch
Because I care too much

- The XX

Simple does it...

Just a little black and white but with great silhouettes!

This skirt by Friend of Mine clearly kills all other back skirts out there.

I  look forward to wearing it this fall with chunky sweaters.

What I Got

Top - UO / Shorts - Unif / Jacket - Brandy Melville / Shoes - Converse

Early in the morning, risin' to the street
Light me up that cigarette and I strap shoes on my feet
Got to find a reason, a reason things went wrong
Got to find a reason why my money's all gone
I got a Dalmatian, and I can still get high
I can play the guitar like a mother fuckin' riot

Life is too short, so love the one you got
'Cause you might get run over or you might get shot
Never start no static, I just get it off my chest
Never had to battle with no bulletproof vest
Take a small example, take a tip from me
Take all of your money, give it all to charity
- Sublime


Another Tahoe post!
I'm loving how the leopard and sunflower print play off each other.
It's fun, youthful and fresh...
Which is perfect for summer and vacations!

Born in the U.S.A

Outfit One:

 Dress - From Japan / Shoes - JC / Necklace - Vanessa Mooney

Outfit Two:

Scarf (worn as top) - Brandy Melville / Cut Offs - Vintage / Shoes - Vans / Sunnies - Sabre

Born down in a dead man's town
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
You end up like a dog that's been beat too much
Till you spend half your life just covering up
Born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.

- Bruce Springsteen

Just wanted to share the two looks that I am loving for this 4th of July!

They are so easy and you probably already have some of these pieces in your closet.

With my first look, just look and see if you have a white, red or blue solid dress...

then the fun part comes where you can go a bit wild with accessories!

With my second outfit I got a bit more creative with my scarf 

(where you can get online at Brandy Melville!)

I wrapped it around as a top and knotted it...

pairing it with high waisted cut offs keeps the look played down a bit.

Then adding so Vans which are so Americana really finished the look!

What will you wear this 4th...?

Rock Lobster

Top - Brandy Melville / Pants - c/o Motel / Heels - JS / Sunnies - c/o Sabre / Pinky Ring - c/o Neha

Ski-doo-be-dop
Eww
Ski-doo-be-dop
Eww
(Ski-doo-be-dop) We were at a party (Eww)
(Ski-doo-be-dop) His ear lobe fell in the deep (Eww)
(Ski-doo-be-dop) Someone reached in and grabbed it (Eww)
(Ski-doo-be-dop) Was a rock lobster (Eww)

Aaaah
Rock lobster
Aaaah
Rock lobster

Eww
Eww
We were at the beach (Eww)
Everybody had matching towels (Eww)
Somebody went under a dock (Eww)
And there they saw a rock (Eww)
It wasn't a rock (Eww)
Was a rock lobster (Eww)

- The B-52's

I was so excited to open my package from Motel and see these ridiculously cute jeans!

The print is so cute and reminds me of The Beverly Hills Hotel.

There are so many ways to wear these jeans...

You can be low key and casual by wearing a band tee and some old school lo pro Vans or

 play the pants up as I did by wearing a crop top and some mega platforms.

The cat eye sunnies by Sabre complete this retro look for me!

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Free Bird

Dress - Arnhem / Hat - UO / Boots - LF / Necklace - Brandy Melville

If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be traveling on, now
'Cause there's too many places
I've got to see

But, if I stayed here with you, girl
Things just couldn't be the same
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now
And this bird, you'll can not change
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
- Lynyrd Skynyrd


I love it when my bf and I are driving by and find the most perfect location for us to shoot at..
This past weekend we were driving around Santa Cruz and saw this old fence
and I new it would be perfect for this outfit...
As we already know Australian designers are killing it,
So it was no surprise to me that when I was looking at Arnhem's look book I was a fan!
Such fun loving vintage inspired fabrics and silhouettes.
I channeled my inner Penny Lane as soon I stepped into this dress.

In Bloom

Tee - Chaser / Dress & Jacket - Brandy Melville / Boots - JC / Purse - Vintage

Necklaces - BCBGeneration & St Eve

Sell the kids for food
weather changes moods
Spring is here again
reproductive glands

Hey - He's the one
Who likes all our pretty songs
And he likes to sing along
And he likes to shoot his gun
But he knows not what it means
Don't know what it means, when I say

- Nirvana

I do love pretty things...

But!

I like them with a little imperfection, kinda like my outfits!

Especially this one, starting with my pretty floral dress and topping it off

with my rocker Chaser tee and finishing it off with an army green jacket and boots!

Cherub Rock

Top & Bra - Brandy Melville / Shorts - LuLu's / Sheer Blouse - HM / Boots - Matisse

Belt - Vintage / Sunnies - Ray Ban / Necklace - Vanessa Mooney

Bracelets & Rings - Vintage, Brandy Melville, Black Oak & Younger Young

Freak out
And give in
Doesn't matter what you believe in
Stay cool
And be somebody's fool this year
'cause they know
Who is righteous, what is bold
So I'm told

Who wants honey
As long as there's some money
Who wants that honey?

- Smashing Pumpkins


Simple but chic...
That is pretty much how I would describe this outfit.
Black is definitely my go to color and playing with all shades of it.
When I wear all of one color I like to play with the textures of fabric
like the pieces above.
This bra that I'm wearing is one of my all time favorites and every girl must own it.
It will become your best friend and makes every outfit that much better!
Get it at Brandy Melville!

Peaceful Easy Feeling

Top - Brandy Melville / Skirt - Vintage / Shoes - Miista

Necklace - Vintage / Rings - Younger Young & Vintage

And I found out a long time ago
What a woman can do to your soul.
Oh, but she can't take you anyway,
You don't already know how to go.

And I got a peaceful easy feeling,
And I know you won't let me down
'cause I'm already standing on the ground

- The Eagles

My favorite thing about the weekends are Sundays!

Reason why is because my bf and I try to hit up a flea markets where I hunt to find one of a kind pieces...

Like, this suede skirt!

I saw it from a mile away and knew it had to be mine.

I love it!

 It's a bit 60's rock n roll... very Penny Lane!

Because the skirt is so amazing I kept the rest of the outfit simple

a white crop top, turquoise jewelry and some black clogs!

Hope you all had a great weekend!
