ROMPER: Urban Outfitters // SANDALS: Pixie Market (more styles here) // SUNNIES: Urban Outfitters // BAG: Zara // WATCH: Daniel Wellington

This blog of mine is very enabling. I often use blogging as an excuse to shop and buy more items to wear and then feature on here. Well, as someone who is trying to build up her savings account this summer, I have been doing my best to utilize the wardrobe I already have. It's easy to constantly buy new items to feature in looks, but it is more realistic to see how I consistently wear and style pieces over and over. Rompers are such a summer staple for me because depending on the style, they are versatile and so easy to wear. This romper (previously featured here) has a small polkadot print pattern that is neutral in color. I can definitely dress this one up or down, depending on where I am wearing it. For a non-fuss summer look, I paired it will some cute gladiator sandals (previously featured here). Accessories were kept minimal, as usual. 

Hope you enjoy and have a lovely week!

Another Grey Sweater

Apparently, I like grey sweaters. Although the weather in LA doesn't necessarily require a turtle neck, I still enjoy sporting this trend. What I particularly like about this sweater is the slit up the sides, which pair oh so nicely with my Topshop "Jamie" jeans. I have had a hard time taking these jeans off me lately; they are so comfortable and the slits on the knee add the perfect amount of "undone" to any outfit. I wore this outfit to class so I paired it with my trusty high tops. As for accessories, I wore my furry bag from Nasty Gal and my new favorite Daniel Wellington watch. 

I wanted to talk to you guys about the term cruisin'. I have recently coined this term as my motto of the new year, it meaning just doing what you love to do without expectations of yourself or others. Well, the idea of cruisin' sounds great to me but I am beginning to question my capabilities of just being able to cruise. It is my natural instinct to over think something that really shouldn't matter so much to me. Maybe I should have attempted this cruise before I even made the commitment. To be honest, as I am typing this I am thinking about how the fact that I am even discussing this defeats the purpose of this whole cruise concept in general. I'll be sure to touch base with you later about how I get along with cruisin' this year. So far, I am not very successful.

Songs I am currently into: Promise by Ben Howard. Money Trees by Kendrick Lamar is cool too. There is a slight contrast between these two songs which may signify what kind of mood I have been in lately.
