Living Room Cool

(Herff Christansen vest, Vintage skirt, Hasbeens for H&M shoes, Hallelu and MANGO rings)

This week so far has been a breeze. I’ve finally gotten some much needed r & r! Finally getting over the crazy allergies that decided to take over my body, and feeling much better now! This week, I went to support my lovely sister Dylana at her H&M photoshoot for the new Hasbeens and H&M shoe collaboration. I am wearing them here in this post! These Swedish clogs are extremely comfy and give me an extra unneeded height boost. They go perfectly with the rest of my wardrobe, so I’m quite happy to get a pair before they even hit stores! The photoshoot was a complete blast. I got some great behind the scenes footage of Dylana, catching her looking like a total supermodel. At the shoot, we even got in a few sister shots as well (me as her sidekick ehehhe!)! I’m excited to see how the shoot turned out!

And with the sudden heat we’ve been having, all I feel like doing is lounging around, in the warmth of my living room to be exact! Besides my new Hasbeens for H&M sandals (which I kind of keep wearing now), I’ve got on a stellar zipper vest and my favorite velvet vintage skirt. Super simple. The heat makes me lazy and sleepy, but I’m loving the change in behavior 🙂

UPDATE: It’s also FREEBIE FRIDAY on Nylonmag.com. See my feature and be sure to enter to win a bunch of VOLCOM clothes from the new collection! Enter HERE!

VOLCOMUNITY Photoshoot: Behind the Scenes

Don’t play with fire.

hahahahah dy looks like a baby with a bib.

Here is just a little sneak peek into my recent photoshoot for Volcom! It’s easy to see that the Volcom team is incredibly fun. I never know what to expect when I step on set. This time, they definitely brought the bad girl out on me. I was caught playing with fire, whipping my hair back and forth, and participating in all sorts of wrongdoings (just kidding). But I did enjoy every second of the photoshoot. The whole Volcom team always make me laugh! We fought over what music to play (Girl Talk hip hop music always ended up being our playlist) and danced together in sync to the music (which I caught on tape, until my cell decided to be retarded and delete the epic video grrrr). Anyways, I’m desperately craving for the leopard trench coat, mustard colored sweaters, and rust colored pants. WANT WANT WANT. These stellar pieces aren’t out yet, but I already have them on my wish list! For now, visit me VOLCOMUNITY.COM!

Weekend Blogger Meet Up!

Wearing my favorite vintage skirt by Calvin Klein!

One of my very good friends, Jules Sarinana of Sincerely Jules, hosted the Madewell Event!


With Dylana and Shea!

SWEETS!

Jules and her boyfriend are so cute together!

Eating at Pink Taco! GUACAMOLE!

I still need our sweet jumping pics to add to this post! hehe

My very good friend, the adorable Julie of Sincerely Jules, was hosting the Madewell event here in Century City. It was so fun viewing the new collection and munching on delicious sweets! Thanks to my sweater, this turned out to be one briiiight post. I paired my electric orange pullover with a vintage skirt by Calvin Klein and a vintage hat I bought in Spain. Easy and simple for a weekend out with friends. After the event, we got a huge table at Pink Taco and devoured some of the yummiest Mexican food ever under the sun. Many thanks to Jules for inviting us! It was one hell of a time 😉

Thank Goodness It’s Friday!

(Meghan Los Angeles dress, Promod Blazer, Vintage Ferragamos, Velvetine bag)

Here I am during an evening out with friends, wearing an adorable lace dress by Meghan of Los Angeles. The little fringe details along with the high neckline and mini-ness, makes this dress one of my favorites. I like how it can easily transition from something to wear day to night.

And can you believe it is FRIDAY?! Time really does fly when you’re having fun. This week has been intense with work and everything else in between, but I’ve been having the time of my life. Everything feels a lot more like play rather than work. I’m excited to share all the images from my photoshoots with you when they are out! With all this madness, how is it possible that there is still more fun to go around? Welp, there is! Meet me tonight, just before the weekend hits:

Tonight, Friday the 8th, I am hosting the MANGO store event in Santa Monica (5-8pm). Meet me there! I will be singing at the event! There will be: Music. Hors d’oeurves. Free Drinks. Shopping w/ 30% off everything. I will be giving away a $500 MANGO gift card to one lucky attendee. You style a MANGO look, get your picture taken by the photographer, and I will pick a winner at random. See you there!

See details to the event HERE!
