My good friend Taisa of Amahzing!

I am in New York everyone! I’m here for work, but of course will be back and forth between the east and west coast. So far, I am loving it! Here I am with my very good friend Taisa Veras of the fashion site blog Amahzing! Thanks to the subway, it’s so much easier to meet up with people. Today, I’ve already been back and forth from Manahattan to Brooklyn about twice. Going on third later tonight to fetch my sister (visiting from Philly woohoo!) And I thought driving was exhausting, but yeaaaa so is walking! We took these shots right smack in the middle of 5th avenue by Central Park. For this day out and about around the city, I wore my favorite pair of trousers with a very simple light blouse by Mango. Didn’t feel like going crazy with my wardrobe today and honestly wasn’t planning on taking any photos, but lighting was too perfect and so we went for it. My favorite shoe for walking all day? These adorable bright coral sandals. Their geometric shape and pop of color really stand out against a super simple look. Can’t believe I scored these at Urban for 10 bucks! Anyways, it’s so weird being in NYC. I do of course miss my family and all of my LA friends, but I’m quickly getting into the New York groove. Currently surviving off pizza (i’m not too big a cook) and trying to stay sane amongst the massive crowds of people 🙂 Overall, I’m likin it.

With summer just around the corner, I’m leaning toward more boho inspired pieces. I just received this gorgeous crochet vest as a gift from White + Warren and I’m obsessed! I love the long knitted back. Looks best with just a simple top, my favorite flares, and a really deep red lip. These lovely photos were taken by one of my very good friends and one of the most gorgeous bloggers, Raych of That’s Chic! Because I’m leaving for work in NYC, she gave me this adorable green friendship bracelet. How sweet is that? I plan on giving her one equally as awesome! I’m also lusting for a lens like the one she uses. The photos came out so dreamy! This day we stopped at a friend’s barbeque for lunch, went shopping in Santa Monica in the afternoon, and ended our day together at a dinner party. Let’s just say we were completely party pooped by the end of the day! More photos of Raych and I together to come! xx

I wore this to a meeting recently and I am obsessed with these jeans! The high waist with a flare totally elongates the body. Flares used to scare me, but this dark gray pair is a modern take on the 60’s style. Paired them with a cropped knit sweater and my favorite shades. I cannot stop wearing these vintage Ray-bans that my mom picked up for me one weekend at a vintage boutique. I wonder if they still sell this smaller shape?

Anyways, this week has been SO HECTIC! I am in the midst of moving to NYC for work and of course working on some really exciting projects at the same time. All I know is that I will be flying back and forth from NYC to LA and vice versa quite a lot. Gotta get used to the 6 hour flight hehe! One thing though I’m beyond excited about being able to work in NYC, is how much closer I am to Dylana! So crazy how things work out! We will both be east coasting it from now on!!
