Dear Diary,

Faith and I attended the Michael Kors opening event at the Grove. It is the largest location I have been to in L.A, and the set up is very luxurious and homey. I promise to take better photos of the location on my next visit.

Bouchon Bistro

Dear Diary,

My cousin Natasha arranged for a long layover in L.A to spend the day with my sister and I. Natasha is a food lover like me, so I can’t say I was surprised she picked a mouth watering location to have brunch.

Girls Night Out

Dear Diary,

My friend Faith and I hardly go anywhere. Picture two old ladies sitting on their porch in rocking chairs, peacefully knitting lol. We have decided to turn over a new leaf, starting with dinner.

What I Wore: URBAN OUTFITTERS denim/leather jacket, H&M neon dress, ALEXANDER WANG shelly perforated boot, FOREVER 21 earrings.

The Main Event

Dear Diary,

 In my last post, I mentioned attending a wedding in Paris. The bride looked flawless! Her vintage glam dress with the mermaid silhouette were to die for. And who could forget the cathedral veil? The attention to detail in the decor was simply impeccable. Loadz of food, champagne, and amazing people from different parts of the globe!

The bride being walked down the aisle by her brothers. It was the cutest thing!

The Brocade Suit

Dear Diary,

 I was on a mission to find a bright colored pant suit for a wedding in Paris. I searched high and low, and decided to make h&m my final stop. What did I  find when I walked into the store? An insane brocade suit with metallic shimmer…SWOON. It was way better than the spring/summer bright I was yearning for. Of all the places I would get lucky, who would have thought it would be h&m? Elizabeth and James has a brocade peplum and pant set in their fall RTW for $800. Mine totaled $100. Quite a steal, if you ask me.

 

H&M blazer and pants, FOREVER 21 bustier and earrings, BOUTIQUE9 orra pumps, MAC ruby woo lipstick.

Family Love

Dear Diary,

Meet my handsome cousin Oliver. I was more than thrilled to hang with him in London on my trip. We hadn’t seen each other in a year, and of course I had to take some shots of him considering how cool he looked in his oversize cardigan, and plaid combo.

Allow me to Introduce..

Dear Diary,

I went to Beyond Retro in London, located around Soho to do some vintage shopping, and who do I run into after my spree?
A gorgeous young lady with sea blue hair talking on her cell phone. I just couldn’t take my eyes off her. A sporty, yet casual outfit. I mean she oozed flyness without even trying! I knew I would kick myself  if I didn’t interrupt her phone call to pay a compliment, and take a few shots of her. It ended up being one of the best decisions I ever made. She was very receptive and jovial, which made me admire her even more for her humility.
