the built in onesie with(out) the socks

DSC_0174 DSC_0226 DSC_0229 DSC_0266 DSC_0243On Whit:  RACHEL Rachel Roy the Sabrina Jumpsuit (got it on super sale at Macy's!), Marc by Marc Jacobs satchel, vintage leather belt, Karen Walker Number One Sunglasses, Top Shop sandals (old), Fifi Lapin iPhone Case c/o Iconemesis

When I saw this jumpsuit on a hanger at Macy's, I never thought in a million years that it would be something that I would wear.  It was very different from anything that I own, so I was naturally very curious about what it would look like on (I imagined...insane clown suit).  Well, even if I was right, it's now my favorite sunny weather outfit.  I feel like I'm wearing PJs all day.

Trial and error

_MG_6087_MG_6042_MG_6149_MG_6136
On Mallory: GAP frenchie sweater, H&M studded skirt (All sale 50% off right now!), Ralph Lauren collection espadrilles, 
Lips: c/o Bare Escentuals Marvelous Moxie in Lead the Way

I really like socks with sandals on other people (i.e. models in Piperlime ads), so I decided to try it out myself. I'm not sure if I like it. Wearing socks with bare legs cuts off the legline...and I already don't have very long legs. Maybe if I had different sandals with less straps? hmm..

BTW..I had to get this Frenchie sweater because it's getting too warm for my thicker fox sweater. hehe

Natural habitat

DSC_1271 DSC_1269 On Whit: Asos tee, Zara culotte shorts and heels, Marc by Marc Jacobs satchel (similar version here), Enjoi baseball cap via Plndr, Clinique Chubby Stick Intense in Heftiest Hibiscus

I was ecstatic when I randomly discovered this mural last weekend (considering how often I visit Irving, I can't believe I never noticed it there).  It sums up some of my favorite memories growing up in San Francisco--from Irving street for snacks and boba to taking the Muni every single day after school.  And mhm..my home pretty much looks exactly as painted.

Birds of paradise

_MG_5735_MG_5713_MG_5728_MG_5750 On Mallory: c/o Choies tropical mirror print top, Double Zero scalloped laser-cut shorts via Crossroads Trading, Sam Edelman Ginger sandals, Coach crossbody bag

When I saw this shirt online, the cuffs at the wrist (which are ribbed) actually made me think it was a sweatshirt. I thought, 'well that print doesn't make sense for a sweatshirt,' and decided to get it anyway because (a) so what if it isn't logical (b) birds of paradise.  Turns out it is actually a shirt, so  the tropical print seems less misplaced.
