Brining the sunshine

Yesterday was so grey and cloudy. I decided i wasn't going to let the ugly weather get me down, so i chose to make my own sunshine. I put on the brightest (maybe 2nd brightest) yellow shirt i own. I think it worked. I got to spend the day in Beverly Hills with a dear friend who i hadn't seen since January (i couldn't believe it had been that long). We spent the day window shopping, exploring decorating stores,  and eventually looking at an apartment for her to rent (which happens to be perfect.... praying it works out), and getting dinner at CPK all while dodging rain drops. This wonderful day ended with a gorgeous bright pink sunset as we drove home from LA.

Here are a few pics from the day

Just kidding....
Well i just learned that there is a storage limit for photos. Apparently I have hit my limit. So until i fix this problem without buying a monthly plan i will try and recreate my outfits on polyvore and link you to them. Oh google/blogger how you create problems that i didn't even know were possible.

No Proof

Monday was another LA adventure.

Erin, Kirsten, and I went to LA to go to the jimmy kimmel taping of the zac brown band.

Because of this, i couldn't take my camera.

This was also the same night as the Lucky One premier.

By the time we got done with the zac brown band performance, the green carpet was being cleaned up and the movie was almost out.

We stood behind the barricade and chatted with the security guard and waited for the theater to be let out.

When it did we spotted zac efron from a distance, ashley tisdale ran right past us as she leaned into her boyfriend to hide from people-umm it didn't work, and some guy from 90210-Matt Lanter. We also saw a huge crowd of people around someone i assume to be Selena Gomez.

As exciting as that was we chose to not stand around for too long, we were starving and extremely thirsty.

We ate dinner (fyi it was after 9:30) at the hard rock cafe.

After standing for hours it felt so good to sit down and eat.

My back hurt for the next few days...i cant imagine how my body would have hurt if i had worn heels.

So none of that fun stuff got documented, but i was smart enough to take a couple pictures of my outfit before i left for this adventure.

Dress: Target (now in new colors), belt: vintage, shoes: Soda, Necklace: Boutique

Late night outings

What do you do at 9:30p.m. on a thursday night?
Me and Erin drive to L.A. to have an adventure.
Why not drive around los angeles and explore art and take pictures and then drive through fancy neighborhoods and make up stories about the people who live there. Late night adventures are fun. You should have one.

Dreary and Beautiful

I haven't posted in almost a week, which means i have some photos to share.

I wish i had a good excuse for not posting, but i don't. 

I even had some cute outfits this past week that went without documentation.

Here is what did get captured:

On Saturday....adventure to FIDM Scholarship store in LA to find a dress for the Valentines dinner at church this thursday

To go shopping i wore the outfit on the left.
First i tried the one on the right but decided it would
 be too much of a hassle when trying on clothes.

I narrowed my dress selection down to these two.
They were the same brand (Tadashi Shoji) and each cost $60.
You will have to stay tuned to find out which one i chose.

Today is kind of dreary but i find that weather great for photos.

Adventures in Los Angeles

On Tuesday me and my friend Erin took a trip to LA with the intent of visiting the filming locations from (500) days of summer. Well we accomplished that and more. After walking downtown LA for almost 3 hours (a great workout by the way...who knew LA had hills) we felt well cultured and gained a new love for architecture.

(in case you didn't figure it out...here is what i wore)

Sweater: Forever 21, Necklace: target (can be found on etsy), Purse: Forever 21, Jeans: American Eagle, Boots: Soda
