lordy lordy…
got back from San Diego on Thursday and haven’t slowed down for even a second. for real for real. had a friend in town visiting and also celebrated my birthday,
im now 25!
friends and i went to dinner in downtown Decatur and then went roller skating at a rink called Golden Glide we choose that particular rink due to location but also because i was celebrating my ‘Golden Birthday’. of course i wore head-to-toe gold!
pretty backed up with photos i want to share from said birthday party celebrations, California and other outfits i’ve snapped…bare with me as i play catch up, starting with another outfit, two quick pics before a dinner with my girly friends a few weeks ago. really love this velvet top and wanted to share:

aren’t these photos gorgeous?! the minute i spotted them on Nasty Gal’s site i saved them to my desktop for inspiration. wanting to try a similar style photoshoot with a girlfriend who’s agreed to some modeling. highly doubtful it comes out this badass but experimenting is always fun.
about halfway into the San Diego vacation and already done so much. a lot of riding bikes and eating. my boyfriend did his undergrad here so im traveling with a sort of local who has been taking me to his favorite spots. today we road to the swap meet and i picked up some vintage and Mexican jewelry. they also had a booth with tons of Urban Outfitters, Hurley, American Apparel and other brands i like that was super cheap. snagged some floral leggings and a tank for only $10. also came across a vintage 100% silk Saks Fifth Ave. sweater that is perfectly over-sized. i’d say today was a shopping success!
tonight we are going to a warehouse party a bike shop friend of Kareem’s is throwing, should be interesting!
hope everyone is having a marvelous weekend!
xx.
Flashy

all over Urban

generally try not to wear head-to-toe of just one brand but sometimes it just happens, in this outfit’s case it’s Urban Outfitters (minus accessories). the top and boots were Christmas gifts from mom and the Urban Renewal Levi shorts i bought after holiday markdowns for only $9.99
nothing too fancy and even though there isn’t much color, i do like the pallet of dark shades.

shoe soul mate

IMG_6342_2
have you ever had a pair of shoes that you loved SO MUCH that you actually didn’t want to wear them? if so, you can relate to my issue with these leopard booties. i have posted them before but not an up-close and personal pic of the lovelies. scored for a mere $19.99 via Urban Outfitters I have found my shoe soul mate. they have attracted strangers all over Atlanta with their shape, texture and print. seriously whenever i wear them i have many many randos that tell me how awesome they are, even guys! the only reason i worry about them not lasting for the long run is because the pony fur is already starting to rub where the laces cross across the top, sad times-i know. but even if they look haggard i’d still wear them out, especially to all my nightlife outtings.

ended up not going on the Nashville bachelorette trip due to money making opportunities at home. being a responsible adult isn’t always fun. but next week i will be in sunny San Diego and all my troubles will melt away. unfortunately the same can not be said for Japan, the photos are frightening and i can’t imagine what the people of that region are going through. let’s send all positive thoughts to Japan and hope for the very best.

while on a caffeine infused Alexa Chung browsing rant i came across these photos on The Fashion Spot from May 2009. even though they are from a few years back this outfit is still stylish-would you expect anything else from Miss Chung? doubt it.
as my bangs are slowly but surely growing out and temperatures are just as slowly on the rise-im extremely tempted to go short short. don’t know if i’d want to cut my hair quite this short but close, and i have plans to get some lighter color added to the bottoms as well. while reading some forums i’ve noticed that not everyone is in love with the Balayage look-what do you think, like or dislike?

happy National Women’s Day lady friends!
