From Dusk till Dawn

I have been seeing wrap dresses everywhere lately and wanted one ever since I stumbled upon them when I was browsing dresses on the internet with one of my best friends. I was particularly excited when Shanna’s Threads sent over this royal blue maxi wrap dress. The material is so comfortable and you can pretty much wear this dress anywhere. I also paired this dress with my black booties from BC Footwear.

Stars Shine Brighter & Hang a Little Higher

Hello fellow beach lovers! 🙂
I just want to say how obsessed I am with Hurley’s winter gear…I know it doesn’t always feel like winter in SoCal but living a few blocks from the beach I sometimes feel the ocean breeze when I’m out at night cruising down town or skate boarding with my friends. So, Hurley sent me a few items that I completely loved for those days that are a little chilly.

Basta Surfin’

For those of you that are in SoCal…you are probably making all of your out of state friends jealous with how amazing the weather has been. I really had a good time trying out my Basta Surf bikinis and especially loved them because they are perfect to wear under a wetsuit. I wore mine around Huntington Beach and loved the light, soft feel of them.

Somewhere in Venice With Ya’

Well hello 🙂 I have to say I am very much loving all the flowers and beauty I found while venturing around Venice Beach with my friends Cassandra and Sara. I especially loved doing so in this rad dress that Hurley sent me…I decided to dress it way up and give it a different look. I feel the most carefree in a cute sundress. See what I mean and get this dress here!

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

Paper Doll, Dress Me Up

 

I know it’s the midst of winter and some of you are fighting the mighty winds of Father Christmas but I have been so in love with my sun dresses from As U Wish and I had to share with you guys. Every time I visit their showroom along with Lily White, I point about about 50 pieces that I want to style. I throw on one of their dresses, head down PCH towards Laguna Beach and jam some John Mayer while I count my blessings. Processed with VSCOcam with f2 preset

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. 😉

I Hope She Smells My Perfume…

 

I love fall with all my heart even though it means the days are pretty much cut in half when the sun clocks out at 5:30 p.m. every night. I’ve been spending so much time with friends and family which is making my heart more fulfilled every day. I love this outfit because kimonos are becoming a little more popular to wear here in OC. I’ve been seeing them in so many more stores and I love it because they are fun to throw on over a sundress to spice it up and also over your bikini if you’re going to the beach. This one was sent over from Lulu’s.DSC_0272 DSC_0317 DSC_0297 DSC_0327Get this Kimono here.

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
