DOWN ON THE WEST COAST

DOWN ON THE WEST COAST

Hi guys! It’s been a minute since I’ve blogged. I’m on holiday and have been taking full advantage of it, as in overeating, oversleeping & over-Netflixing. But it’s all winding down now & I’ll be back onto my schedule. Also, Happy New Year! This past year has been an insane & incredible year. I’m so grateful for the people I’ve met, experiences I’ve had, and for each & every one of you. Thank you so much for joining me on this ride. I have greater hopes & sights for 2015. Wishing all of you the best with this coming year you wonderful people!

Now onto the blogging. For this set, I feel like I need to be standing in the middle of a desert with empty open roads sprinkled with cactuses & lifeless greens, but I live in LA so I’ll settle with industrial buildings & cars. As I’ve mentioned before, Motel is one of my favorite labels and this shirt dress is no exception. This shirt slash dress is actually quite long and goes past my knees but I decided to wear it as top. It’s super versatile- you can wear it buttoned all the way up like I did here, with or without pants, opened as light outerwear, with a belt & the list goes on. I like how it’s oversized, but the features that need to be fit like the collar and the sleeve width are still fairly fitted. It has a cool menswear chic element to it. Wore these stretchy bells from Colors of Aurora. Velvet bells are the way to go. It’s a comfortable fit with the good amount of warmth, all the while extending the appearance of your legs. The jewelry pulls this entire look together. I’m in love with this bolo tie from Bella & Chloe. This site carries one-of-a-kind vintage pieces. These pieces are unique & are definitely worth investing in because you won’t be able to find them anywhere else. Another beauty is the HSLK meteorite ring. All the jewelry is handmade & is inspired by natural landscapes & minerals. These creations are timeless and it’s signature designs are unique to its label.
