My Break.....

I'm sorry I haven't really been as active as I should be. I've been busy the past two weeks or so getting everything together for my move back to San Diego. I'm partly settled here, but I definitely do not have the wardrobe to go with it. I'm hoping to get all my clothes and possessions settled in by next week since I'll be able to go home and grab the rest of my clothes. Until then, I'll try to make an outfit post and check up on what's new in the style scene!

Fall Direction

Ah, fall is approaching for us in California. It's still quite some ways away, but the idea of the upcoming fall fashion thrills me. I'm brainstorming what I really want out of my fall fashion ideas, and I'm imagining chunky tights, thigh high socks, dresses and masculine blazers or even chunky cardigans as well. I've also been much more fascinated with rolled up trousers, button up shirts of all varieties....and ahhhh there are just so many directions and options to choose from! I guess it'll depend on my mood for the day? Girly or masculine.....sigh. I sometimes wish I had a more definite signature style, but my own inability to choose a consistent "look" has me more into a shapeshifter than anything else.

Of course, it being California and all, I would have to find cooler alternatives.

Also, as a curious question for you all; What're your plans for fall fashion? Anything you're all looking forward to throwing on or purchasing?

Wed & Thu - Sept 10th & 11th

Alright so what I wore today and yesterday are extremely similar. Hat and all. (What can I say, I'm in love with this hat!) So I decided to merge the two posts together, since they're so alike anyways.

Sept. 10th



I was inspired a bit by A Clockwork Orange. Such a riveting movie, and although the influence isn't too....striking, I'd still like to think my mindset can be seen.

Sept 11th



This was a more lazy laid-back look for me. Since I was literally spending the entire day by myself, since my sister flew out to Chicago, I decided to get comfy while having a delightful dinner of raw oysters and french fries. (Odd combination, much?)

Tues Sept 9th - Day 5

I haven't been updating as much lately! Just a little preoccupied and lazy to take photos to be honest.

Nothing's been going on as much. Just relaxing and enjoying my time here. I've been keeping up to date with what's being presented at Fashion Week, although I don't feel the need to post up any musings on it as of right now.

Wearing this was surprisingly comfortable and fun. The boots were a dream to walk in, especially throughout long distances. (Like the song, "These boots were made for walking", indeed!)

Sat Sept 6th - Day 2

Today it rained and rained and rained right onto my parade! Well, to be honest, it was a typical nice day. I was headed towards No Relation Vintage, which was AMAZING by the way. Great selection with reasonable and affordable prices. I got a nice blue Lacoste cardi and a nifty 80's sweater for $25 all together. It was a nice gathering of clothes, although I didn't go as overboard as I wanted to.

I was ready to raid more, but then it started pouring and silly me...forgot to bring an umbrella. I scuttled into a nearby pizzeria and lounged about for a few hours. Although my day ended with that note, I still got my taste of New York vintage shops for this year.

And yes, white and slick-slippery sandals were a bad idea.

Sorry for bad image quality. I don't really know what happened. Probably the wrong camera option without me even being aware of it.
