As I mentioned a few months back I went to my very first wedding this past summer. While Ava managed to travel across Europe, I was able to enjoy this amazing day. It was no doubt the most beautiful and emotional celebration I have ever attended. The red and white theme was stunning. From the decadent chandeliers to the idillic wrapping of the cake, the celebration was decorated perfectly.
Last Wednesday I celebrated my favorite day of the year, my birthday. Being I am extremely picky I informed everyone of exactly what I wanted so I wouldn't have to go through the hassle of awkwardly returning unwanted gifts. Deborah Lippmann's "Happy Birthday" nail polish was not only perfect for the occasion but had been on my shopping list for months. This $18 nail polish goes along way and is truly a show stopper.
We can both wholeheartedly agree September 10th 2010, Fashion's Night Out is a night that we will never forget. Us two and a few friends traveled all over Los Angeles viewing new collections, meeting celebrities (including: Perez Hilton, Taylor Jacobson, and Stephanie Pratt) and collecting goodie bags. The Beverly Center Mall held an epic fashion show with designs from Bloomingdales, Forever 21, Bebe, and Traffic (our new fave store). After that we quickly walked over to Robertson Blvd where Diavolina was giving away goodie bags full of leggings, we visited a few more boutiques and then ventured to Rodeo where we rode the ferris wheel countless times. From getting manicures at Chanel to the Beverly Center Fashion Show we were overwhelmed with excitement!
This is one of my favorite outfits, although I could really only wear it once being it wasn't all mine. This amazing Alexander Wang bag, which has been on my wish list for ages, and was recently taken from me at the Barneys Warehouse Sale, is sadly not mine, just borrowed from a friend. Although, this outfit does consist of my best thrift store purchase yet, a pair of vintage Miu Miu wedges for a total of $4.50 in amazing condition. Last but not least, this ripped sweater was gifted to me by my lovely grandmother, her closet always makes me feel like a kid in a candy store, with all of the colorful handbags and sky high pumps. I always seem to escape her condo wearing this labelless beauty, so she gave it me, its my new favorite thing.
As I wrote about before, this week I took a trip to go to a wedding. I had never been to a wedding before so I had no idea what to wear. After emptying out my whole closet and realizing that studded blazers and bandage skirts wouldn't cut it for this event. As I frantically paced around my room I decided to take a journey back to the amazing LF sale and pick a few more thing up. When I spotted this dress I was in awe, but whats a dress with out shoes, so after narrowing my pile from thirty pairs to three, the decision just got harder but soon enough my feet became beyond sore from trying on every heel insight, so I made up my mind and I walked out of the store with these wooden Jeffery Campbell beauties on my feet.
This week I took a much needed vacation to the San Juan islands, being that my getaway was to a wedding, which required numerous costume changes, which wasn't to bad because it gave me a reason to splurge on some items I have had my eye on. A few days before I left my suitcase was practically empty, so I decided to venture to the LF sale where I bought theses Jeffery Campbell wedges, the top I am wearing, and haven't taken them off since. I waited ages for this T by Alexander Wang skirt to finally go on sale, and being that the store I purchased it from is right next to my all time favorite ice cream store, I splurged twice that day.
This $31 Brandy Melville top is perfect for any occasion, a grassy picnic or a sushi dinner at Izak-ya. The two of us loved this shirt so much we both insisted on buying it even if we would look like twins.
