30 For 30 Remix, Day 23: Plaid to the Bone

Shoes: Sperrys, denim: Anthropologie, shirt: J. Crew, jacket and scarf: Forever 21, necklace and bracelet: Tiffany & Co., ring: from Ireland, shades: Ray-Ban.So...plaid on plaid...I like it. A lot. What do you think? Too Christmasy? Too plaid-y? The remix is almost over and I'm trying to get a little creative. I found this photo on pinterest and was inspired.

30 For 30 Remix, Day 18: Comfort Clothes

Jeggings: Old Navy, boots: Target, tunic: Anthropologie, jacket and bracelets: Forever 21, tote: LV, glasses: Urban Outfitters, silver bracelet: Tiffany & Co.
You know how there are comfort foods? (Mine is orange chicken from Pei Wei.) Well, I also have comfort clothes--pieces that require zero brain power to put together and that I feel good and comfortable in.

Every piece of this outfit is a comfort piece, including the dotted tunic, which is finally making its remix debut ("Finally!" It said to me this morning...). I love this thing...it's billowy and comfortable and super pretty and soft and easy to layer and can be dressed up or down and feels like a pajama top. And it was on sale. So...basically, it's the perfect article of clothing.

What are your comfort clothing pieces?

30 For 30 Remix, Day 12: Go Shorty...

Flats: Nine West, shorts: The Limited, shirt: J Crew, jacket: Forever 21, bracelets: J Crew and Forever 21, ring: The Limited, bag: Coach, shades: Urban Outfitters.
I have such a love/hate relationship with shorts. Love, because when I find a cool pair that fits and doesn’t disappear when I sit down, I really enjoy wearing them. Hate, because those kinds of shorts are hard to find. Also, wearing shorts requires shaving my legs…and we all know how I feel about that.

It’s a beautiful day to wear shorts today. A tad windy, but beautiful!

30 For 30 Remix, Day 5: Casual Friday

Jeggings: Old Navy, secretary blouse: GAP, military jacket: Forever 21, boots: Target, bag: LV, scarf: Anthropologie, bracelet: Tiffany & Co., ring: souvenir from Ireland, shades: Ray-Ban.

I was so excited all week to go to Disneyland with Nathan on Friday night, but when we arrived, there was no parking. Yep, that's right...there was no parking at Disneyland. Instead of being herded into the Anaheim Convention Center parking lot, we decided to just go another time. Luckily, the night led us to Corona for a very special visit. We met up with Kylie's cousin Kaylin and her 11-month old baby bulldog, named Jabba. He is the most precious little meatball of joy I have ever seen.

Jabba likes to eat and sleep a lot. (We have so much in common!) I was so happy we could meet our new little friend. Mickey Mouse has nothing on this little guy...

30 For 30 Remix, Day 1: The Kick Off

Denim shorts: The Limited, striped blouse: The Limited, cargo jacket: Forever 21, flower pin: bought at a craft show, shoes: Sperrys, canvas tote: Marc Jacobs, bangles: Forever 21, ring: The Limited, shades: Ray-Bans.




I might just stop the challenge here...this is one of my favorite outfits I've ever worn. I received a big fat Forever 21 gift card for Christmas and bought this military jacket with it, and I know I will have to restrain myself to not remix it every single day. Love. It.

I was iffy with the flower pin. Nathan asked me if it squirted water. Also, it is not seatbelt-friendly. But my suppressed hesitation paid off because I was complimented on it all day. I liked taking basic, sort of boyish pieces (a boxy blouse, denim shorts, the jacket) and adding some feminine details like the jewelry and pin to soften the look up.

Oh, and that golden glow you see is not that of a real California girl. It's totes fakesies...I got a spray tan for New Year's Eve because I had major farmer's tan action happening, and that's a no-no when you wear a strapless dress. (I'm still figuring out how I got a farmer's tan...I'm not even tan enough for a farmer's tan!!)

Day 1 down, 29 more to go. This'll be an easy challenge, right? Right?!
