Recently, these warm vintage colors have been taking over my wardrobe. I just found this sheer blouse in the back of my closet and cannot believe I’ve left it hanging there for so long! Love that it is lightweight and a deep burgundy color. It’s still sunny and warm here in SoCal so I am still wearing shorts and light layers. I threw on my favorite vintage cardigan and was good to go. These colors are so warm, great for fall.

And exciting new: I’m shooting a Style Guide for Revolve Clothing tomorrow mixing their pieces with my own personal style. Similar to what Rumi from FashionToast did a while back. Should be fun, can’t wait!

Hope everyone has a wonderful week! 🙂

I’ve been really into these big, chunky knitted sweaters with the cool patterns. I finally found the perfect one at a local Abercrombie. It’s sooo cozy and so good for everyday. I’m obsessed with it. It is more like a big blanket that I can take anywhere. I feel like lounging in a log cabin with hot chocolate by a fireplace in the middle of nowhere!! The thought warms my heart!

And remember how I said that I might post a video on a cover song I did? Well, here it is! I recorded this yesterday during my spare time. It’s a cover to Stevie Nicks, “Edge of Seventeen”. One of my favorite songs of all time. I’m revealing my inner rockstar haha! And as you can see, I get reaaaallyy into it. haha! enjoy chickies! and do request some songs you’d like me to cover. I’ll sing it personally for u lol! 🙂

It was a gorgeous day to take a hardcore bike ride. A little sunny, but with a nice cool breeze. I always feel so much better after doing a little exercise, riding my bike is my favorite, next to yoga. I threw on these “Jacob by Marc Jacobs for Marc by Marc Jacobs” shorts and my favorite Madewell cardigan and hit the streets. The shorts are actually from the mens line, but they are nice and boyfriend fitted on me. Love how Marc made fun of himself by using his name a gazillion times on the tag haha. Anywho, it’s just a casual Sunday, and I’m so happy tomorrow is a holiday! wahooo! I don’t know what my plans are yet, but I’ll think of something fun to do 🙂

Today I finally got the chance to head over to the Huntington Library. There was so much ground to cover that wearing my trusty combats seemed like a must. I haven’t been to the Huntington Library in years so I was so happy to go. It is seriously one of the most beautiful places. So calm and peaceful. I could live there forever! There are acres of beautiful landscapes. I felt like running barefoot with a long flowing dress. The place is just perfect! I want to go back more often now. It’s one of those places where you could do yoga or just meditate. Ah, it was so relaxing and such a pretty view.

The Japanese Garden is my favorite. So beautiful and clean. The plants and flowers had such a strong, pretty scent.

Bamboo!!

My favorite painting in the whole house. Pinkie!! Love the pose and rosy pink cheeks!

As you know, I went to see Cirque Du Solei Kooza last night and it was so fantastic. It was so funny and dramatic all at the same time. The music was amazing too, and very loud, just the way I like it. It was a great birthday present and I had a blast! I definitely recommend seeing it though the tickets are pricey, but hey, it’s sooo fun to see a real circus show. I wish I took pictures, but obviously, NO flash photography. boo hoo. haha!

And before I forget, I had an interview with blogger of The Fashion Suitcase, Lia from London. She’s so sweet and really knows her stuff. Read the INTERVIEW here!!

Thank you all for the birthday wishes!! Means a lot to me! 🙂
