Wild N' Crazy Kids.

Shorts: Sanctuary | Sweater: BB Dakota | Sneakers: Nike | Bag: Lancaster Paris.

Shorts weather is upon us. This print reminds me of the Nickelodeon days, you know?! Nick na' nick nick na' nick nick nick... Love the subtle pops of color and they have the perfect amount of drape without being too flouncy. I paired them with this open back sweater. You know I'm a fan of open back stuff (Open back tanks from my line here and here) I just love how the front is so conservative and then BAM when you walk away. Something about open backs is always more sexy to me then low cut fronts. I think it's the element of surprise and maybe how most guys can't figure out sticky bras and what your wearing, or not wearing under there. Mysterious! Well, later Bra'

A Little Sparkle.

So! Thought it might be fun to do something a little festive. Not gonna lie this may or may not be a sweater but I'm 5'1 (and a half!) so even though it's a little on the short side I feel like with tights it could work! Plus it's super comfy!! The pink collar adds some charm to it. Its always good to make sure your personality comes through in an outfit. Pink collar- so me.

Bun Head.

A lot of my favorite things included in this post; ballerina bun, denim jacket, RM bag, OTK socks... tickin' all the boxes! I chopped all my hair off last December (like really... haha) and it's finally long enough to get back into a bun, which is so nice and easy breezy! I've been really into the denim jacket as of late- gotta pop that collar! I wanted to send a special thanks to Foam Magazine for their "Blogger of the Week" feature from 12-12-12! You can check it out here! Have a fantastic weekend!!

There's No Crying In Baseball.

I am a lover of all things gold. Gold jewels- check. Gold phone case- check. Gold sequin baseball jacket- check. How good is this guy? It's kind of a bold statement so I toned it down with a simple jeans and white tee combo. It's been raining off and on here the last few days in Los Angeles, leaving that crisp just rained kinda air. Even though I'm not that into the rain I have to admit it's pretty refreshing and it's suited my mood lately. Sorry to torture you guys that commented on wanting these booties that are no longer available! I tromped around in the mud like an idiot and got them all smudged! Waaa.. I've still got a bit of that silly tom boy in me, what can I say?

Red.

Confession: I think I may be becoming "that weird girl that always wears a red beanie" I'm obsessed! Nothing like a nice red pop of color! It's like an exclamation point for an outfit! And I love exclamation points! (Reference to Seinfeld episode where Elaine's boyfriend... oh just watch it!)

The Jean Geanie.

Finally Fall has arrived in Southern California! There is a cool breeze blowing! People are wearing pants! Jackets! Scarves! I even had my first white hot chocolate of the season! My fave!! A while back I did a post about Fall Fashion where I mentioned leather pants- they scare people. Even my lovely photographer mentioned her hesitation, but I promise you- try them! Report back to me. They are so fun. Rock N' Roll!!
