CURRENTLY LOVING// HATS

sweatshirt similar here| jeans| mules| hat| bag| sunglasses I’ve been trying to wear my hats more often and work them into my outfits. I love buying hats, but I’m guilty of not wearing them! So recently I have been trying to incorporate them into my style. I have linked a bunch of other different hats that I’m currently loving down below!

CURRENT BASICS I’M LOVING

jacket (old) similar here| tee| jeans| mules| bag| sunnies Everyone has their go-to basics they tend to grab when they don’t know what to wear. It’s basically your uniform, that never fails. Mine always involves some sort of graphic tee, usually a band tee. I have so many of them, but they are such good basics to build a casual outfit from. When I don’t know what to wear, I tend to fall back on outfits similar to this one. ...

THERE’S SOMETHING ABOUT MADEWELL

jeans| bodysuit| jacket| mules| earrings We all know there’s an endless amount of denim brands out there. It’s seriously a never-ending list. I will also admit that I have my fair share of jeans. It’s a closet staple, but there are SO MANY different washes and styles. And don’t get me started on the sizing. This is where I wish sizing was universal. My size varies depending on the brand and this drives me bananas! Not ...

WEEKEND JOGGERS

joggers| tee| jacket| sneakers| bag| sunglasses Nothing better than walking around the neighborhood to grab some fresh squeezed orange juice! I love having easy weekend mornings where nothing is really planned. Walking around different San Francisco neighborhoods is one of my favorite things to do. You can always find little hidden gems. We made a stop at Black Jet Baking Co. Everything is baked fresh daily. I’m obsessed with the plain ...

SUEDE + STATEMENT EARRINGS

jacket| top| jeans| booties| earrings| handbag When in doubt with a basic/simple outfit, wear the most extra looking statement earrings possible! I promise you, it will make you look put together. I’m a big fan of dainty jewelry, but every once and awhile, I pull out the statement earrings. These baublebar ones are pretty heavy, so I recommend these lobe savers. They are worth every penny. The first time I wore these earrings, I ...

“MAMAN” UNIFORM

jacket| sweatshirt similar one here and similar tee here| leggings| shoes| sunglasses Is it wrong to wear these faux leather leggings at least twice a week? I think not!! I find myself grabbing these a lot lately. They are flattering and offer lots of comfort while still looking stylish. I also have the grey moto version of these leggings and love them just as much. For size reference, I am wearing a size medium. I’ve been wearing them ...

CLASSIC OVERSIZED BLAZER

blazer|tee|jeans|booties|bag An oversized blazer is such a classic piece to have in your wardrobe. It goes well with so many different pieces. I wore this for my birthday dinner. Didn’t want anything super fancy, but still wanted to look chic. When I plan an outfit, it usually involves a tee and jeans. I build my outfit from there by adding pieces that are more interesting. For example, these buckle booties add some edge to this ...

BLACK AND GREY

shirt| jacket| scarf| jeans| mules I’m back! After taking a very long break from blogging, I feel so refreshed and more motivated to blog again. I still struggle with shooting outfits because sometimes I’d rather enjoy my time and not deal with taking photos or stress about that. I’m working on being more present with the now. So with that said, I’m going to really try to be on top of outfit posts! My mom and I ...

FALL COZY

on me: sweater| jeans| boots on C: shirt| flannel similar| jeans| shoes We love the pumpkin patch! Caden mostly enjoys shuffling in the dirt and looking at all the pumpkins. He seriously loves pumpkins. I usually buy the bigger ones from Sprouts or Trader Joe’s because they are super cheap, but when we go somewhere (like the pumpkin patch) I let him pick out a small one. He loves the little ones because he can hold them. As for me, I ...

PARTY DRESS

dress (sold out) similar here| shoes| bag similar here| earrings Nothing says party dress more than a sequins dress! I recently went to two friends’ 30th birthday party. It was a formal attire party; originally I had plan to wear a red dress of mine,  but saw this one and knew it was perfect for the event. At the moment it is sold out, but I will keep my eye out for it when it comes back in stock. It also comes in a silver, but that ...
