You’re all that Matters to Me

My favorite thing about Hurley Girl’s products is how much I am able to play with their styles to either dress them up or dress them down. This shirt I specifically am intrigued with is one you can wear forwards, backwards, and even inside out. Also I am reppin’ HB when I wear it so that is always a plus 😉 I paired it with a long black skirt Maxi dress and also some boot heels from Guess.Style_Smoothie_Final_MG_5681 Style_Smoothie_Final_MG_5742_BW Style_Smoothie_Final_MG_5724 Style_Smoothie_Final_MG_5660 kristenUW_0090 copy

Doin’ it Right

I love going to Corona Del Mar because of all the amazing hidden coves and crashing water in the tide pools. I had so much fun exploring the spot I frequently go to while trying out my new Gemelli bikini. Hot pink=a smile on my face. I cruised with the windows down while jamming ‘Doin’ it Right’ by Daft Punk and thought about how blessed I was this season. Hope you are all having a great Holiday season so far. 😉

Dream a Little Dream

Hot and then cold, the days have been bipolar recently here in Huntington Beach. We had a good streak of sunshine days and then got hit with a few cold rainy ones. On the days the sun makes its appearance I am taking delight in hanging out in the rays. I ventured over to Corona Del Mar recently and wandered around the giant rocks. I was sent this beautiful suit from Lady Lux that fit me perfectly. The colors are a autumn neutral with a pop of purple, great for all skin colors.dxKTI84QnzEEfIcFHGJGDrxNWcbq7722SXWNwwQwW7E,QNiLgPo9dBQkO5GLVNn_Y45bUJcqr2u39OM0-bTeSt0,1xMVvPsAYI3VWuukJQliXngRutwwBcrHKx0kd3qapRgR_sb2PBy0jq9XriYPbRvtT8sY-SEI3JQj7JldyRllto,DvwQ93JwoJfhpo-N4O8Q-QBmDjZZBC8AhedUGoQP8UQ,0XOYJUmNBa-_itwuE127mDORkZoZiXyVS3TCaqUzLrUhE69wP1L_faCSfoWy5L19v1MwOheRjOD3rPZCxx4fIE,ELoLVltqfIdyDc9J_C-75wTf0ad7BFbHkOFiIj3WcKA,qXB4A04XGb7ljBEKmm0mvbz-mZuG5mWj7-Lwtx4O8Lg2OPI0wd4MsvJxiRm7BLhYhL-W_Vw3pcbXa64jZnqPKk,dNaS4_71Xlp31MSf_1y6QnRBuECCzX5Lu9hYIYZwLkw,EtZrngZ5LVcOrTAQ6QUSwPx1mJnE74cDxu-AYbNddA4,dwYoaCpbXIWmSa-yRBdxX9RXvfmxMObtTAtBMveRzogA7-exqZoB_SJLsv9Yr61WXqaNr-olz6D-IxlMjw7eeY,9sBZ-Zu6alG6go7Wg2ji9L_yIh1VJ10TI6GVq-4BI2M,A9r5-ginmI7IYSdfiaeXjS9AYt-5d3PNhj4dOkAECnMRCysCL4d9tLQzQQ57E7MtcjhB7PckKVsmIOjGluOiJ8,bFoi443AOz6VZzcuLQP5l5Br6IxtkSaWlqURleOv4vU,ShE4rlY7F98KVE8j23N0Dms00NQKj3ZjTeP28QVvrBQ,VNinJ-nhT5B3ytmW9NVGPk8pdXEXppouVPdit8pYyGAwEA2ZIkAHzzJSr9kx5zX-vSre7MiB6XV_AWamQqBcjA,PvEQO8YvyWS8aoA7hNNV2e2r2XrTJ2_voB6GMr7RiD0,Z-1JQapCl3G_An7iIGAblNr2LnvLElTWau8leSPAvHo0WY3kOyAna0B6NCUMbFn_AvJsIv9O_GjQfThjY1QmpY,257pciCiJXr0L6QwD88JiibdjLRzjqrg41VhPTmboJc

Do I Make Myself Clear? (90’s Week!)

If the 90’s are back then color me ecstatic. I went on a quest to find some amazing clear bags. I remember transparent EVERYTHING being popular on the kindergarden playground and I was absolutely obsessed with thinking about owning a house full of clear couches, phones, dishes, and backpacks. (I was always an interesting kiddo) I was really happy when I came across Clear-Handbags and they sent over my dream backpack. I was also gaga over Lisa Frank back in the 90’s so I decided to take a page out of Cassandra’s book (see post here.) and decorated my new bag to give it an even more 90’s feel. Keep checking back with us this week as we fill the blog with our favorite decade!

What’s in my bag? Headphones and iPod because I can’t go anywhere without my music, ring pop to fuel my sugar rush, Vera Bradley compact mirror, pencil case, and note paper, journal for my thoughts, and my favorite magazines.DSC_0230 DSC_0244 DSC_0247 DSC_0250

Victoria’s Secrets & Salt Kisses

I haven’t been able to get enough of Laguna Beach recently and have been in the water more this fall then I was all summer it seems (no complaints). I try to never get used to the fact that I live so close to the beach so that I never lose sight of the beauty that I am blessed enough to be surrounded by. I still am so thrilled that I got to collaborate with Victoria’s Secret on some of my own person styles in their swimwear. If you didn’t see my first post on them you can check it out here. My collection of their bikinis is growing and I blame it on their wide selection of amazing designs!

Mermaid in Waiting

The sun is falling asleep and the sand is glowing pink. One of my favorite things to do is watch the amazing sunsets here in Huntington Beach. They have been so beautiful lately so I tossed on one of my flowing dresses from Lulu’s and headed for a stroll to watch the sky change colors. I really like the romantic look of this dress along with the open back on it.

Pretty in Pink

Sun is out, waves are crashing, and the sand is still warm while venturing over to Crescent Bay in Laguna beach where I was  instantly thrown into paradise. I always get thrilled over a new bikini because I am in one almost everyday, so I was ecstatic when I was given the opportunity to collaborate with Victoria’s Secret swim line. I am wearing the Bombshell top and matching bottoms from their very sexy collection. It fit so comfortably and had great coverage along with making you feel like a super model when you put it on! It also comes in over 15 different colors and patterns 😉

The Girl and The Water

Ladies, wondering where to shop all your favorite brands for the most stylish bikinis? The girl and The Water has everything you could want from reversible, Brazilian, one pieces, and fringe. They sent over an exclusive suit from Mary Grace Swimwear and I loved how the bottoms has minimal coverage but still stayed in place while I wandered around Laguna Beach. It’s reversible grey and red so it’s like I have 2 suits in one! Check out TGATW for even more varieties of bikinis to choose from!
