POPS OF RED: DEFURIA BEVERLY HILLS BAG STRAP AND 2BUNNIEZ HAT

Yay, finally coming through with a new blog post. Been busy with work, but the reality is that I’ve also been totally consumed by my new hobby—bouldering (indoor rock climbing). It’s a strenuous workout, and every muscle in my body has been sore for two months straight. My hands are calloused and cramped, and my nails look horrific 99% of the time, but besides all that, I feel fantastic and so much stronger. And I love the fact that Eddie and I have a healthy and adventurous activity we can enjoy together.

I just may need to write a proper bouldering post in the future, but right now I’m sharing a couple of my new favorite accessories: the Defuria Beverly Hills Maxine bag strap in red ostrich, and the super adorable 1Bunnie cap by Ilani Fay. Just so happens that the boss-babe makers of both of these products are friends of mine.

I’ve posted about Courtney Defuria (@defuria_beverlyhills)’s exotic handbags before (see old post here). I love that she expanded her line to include bag straps. I chose the red one because it’s the classic “pop of color,” but I’m also loving the yellow one in lizard.

The Maxine bag strap, undoubtedly named after Courtney’s pretty dog.

The gold hardware is beautiful and highest in quality.

I attached the strap to my baby blue Givenchy Antigona, and it looks pretty darn good! I also put the strap on my yellow Antigona, my Tumi laptop bag, and my Street Fighter fight stick (?.), and they all look fabulous. But I always come back to this powder blue + red combo.

The perfect shoulder length.

I also want to give a quick shoutout to my girl Ilani Fay for creating these super cute hats based on her animation characters, 2 Bunniez.

Ilani’s designs and art is always cute, funny, and quirky–which is how I would describe her too. She inspires me and I feel creative juices flow through my brain whenever I wear this hat.

SHOP IG: PERFECT BUTTON-DOWN GANT SHIRTS

Hi, I just wanted to throw up a quick post to talk about the perfect blue button-down shirts that I received from Gant. These Gant shirts are classic, comfy high-quality shirts that can be dressed up with heels or worn on super chill days with sneakers.

I think navy and yellow is a classic combo and I love how the Gant Rugger PJ shirt (in Thunder Blue) pairs up with my new-to-me Givenchy Antigona bag (latest eBay find!) and yellow pumps.

The shirt is made of 100% silk, smooth, and I could probably very easily sleep in it.

The other shirt that I received is the Gant Rugger PJ shirt in Indigo Blue. I think this shirt is sold out… I couldn’t find it on the site. But they’re having a great sale right now with lots of cute designs.

KOHL’S HAUL: SUMMER INTIMATES BY CANDIE’S

This post is sponsored by Kohl’s. I was paid for this post and received the included intimates as compensation.

It’s really feeling like summer here in LA! And tank top and dress weather is my favorite time of the year to refresh my often-neglected underwear drawer. These super cute and flirty pieces by Candie’s are such a treat! I’m loving all the designs of the four bralettes and three panties in my recent Candie’s underwear haul from Kohl’s.

Cute pieces of Candie’s.

I’ve been looking for this kind of high-neck bralette design for a long time. I love that it 1) provides a lot of coverage, 2) has built-in cups, 3) is breathable, and 4) looks extremely classy!

I love lace because it’s fancy but can also be a bit edgy. The lace pattern of this bralette is really elegant and I know I’ll be wearing this bra a lot, especially when I want to add fresh details to my outfits. I’m trying to be better at restyling the items in my closet, and this layer of lace is an easy way to elevate a top or dress.

I wore the high neck bralette to transform my super casual shirt dress into a summer date night dress.

Eyelash Lace Bra :: Lace Thong (in Soft Floral Pristine)

The Candie’s lace thongs are super comfortable and the colors are so pretty. And since the lace panties are currently on sale for 5 for only $30, might as well get them in Beach Glass, Deep Blue, and Zahara Plum.

Remember when visible bra straps was such a fashion faux pas? ? I’m part of the camp where it’s perfectly fine and acceptable for your bra straps to show as long as they’re pretty and make you feel pretty. I love the peek-a-boo eyelash effect on these bralettes!

And how cool are the back designs on these bras? I would totally wear them with open-back dresses and tops and racerback tanks.

Candie’s bras are currently on sale at Kohl’s for $18.99, so it’s definitely the perfect time to update your underwear drawer.

SHOP MY IG: BLACK ASYMMETRIC TOP AND WHITE BOOTIES OUTFIT

Hi! Hope you’re all doing awesome. I wasn’t going to blog this outfit, but decided to just throw up a quick post about the black ASOS asymmetric top and Sam Edelman white booties outfit I posted on IG recently.

I’m not a huge fan of off-shoulder styles, but I love cold shoulder tops. I’m also not a big fan of ruffles–they look amazing on everyone else but too frilly and girlish in an unfitting way on me. But this top seems to work for me because it’s ruffly and open-shouldered with a little bit of edge.

I wore the top unzipped, but zipping it up looks cute too. And the long sleeves make this a perfect top for summer date nights.

I love the asymmetric long length of the top. It’s dramatic and a little dressy looking, even though this outfit is pretty much casual.

I accessorized with a nude-black-white colorblock Prada purse that I found at an amazing price on the preowned market. I love shopping preowned because it’s like splurging without the guilt.

I wanted to try the white boots trend. I thought about painting some boots white, but I felt they wouldn’t come out quite right, especially since I wanted patent leather boots. I fell in love with these Sam Edelman Olette boots, which are sold out everywhere except for Amazon. I sized up 1/2 a size to have room for ankle socks, and the fit is perfect and the boots are so comfortable!

INTRODUCING MY AMAZON INFLUENCER PAGE

Hi! Happy mid-June and the official halfway point of 2018. Insanity!

Just throwing up a quick post to introduce my new Amazon Influencer page. On this page you’ll find categorized lists of some of my favorite Amazon picks. I love shopping Amazon because Prime shipping is super fast and usually you can’t beat their prices.

So far I have created lists for Beauty products, items for your Furbaby, Shoe Restoration, and Style lists for Swimsuits and Summer picks. I’ll always be adding new stuff, so check back often.

Swimsuits

Amazon has also been my go-to for affordable, trendy swimsuits. I’ve made a list of a bunch of cute ones here.
