White Winter













Top - Olive Olivia | Skirt - Windsor | Shoes - JC |

I haven't worn this puppies in a while. I am obsessed with all of the crochet detailing in the shoes, and wanted to wear them for a night out. Who says you can't wear white in winter?

Fresh Friday

Since I love music, I decided to dedicate a post once at least once a month
 to all of the different genres out there.
I am always on the look out for the cool, new upcoming artists that not many people have heard of. There are also so many songs that need to be listened to more often (aka "hidden treasures"). Lastly, I do occasionally listen to the radio (if I'm too lazy to plug in my iPod), so I like to keep up to date with the most popular songs out right now. 
Music speaks to individuals in different ways. 
I don't believe that someone can only enjoy one style of music. I enjoy all music.

"One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain."
-Bob Marley

Caramel Apples

Around this time of year, my all-time favorite desserts are carmel apples. The best place to go is the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory. But sometimes I like to attempt and make them myself. 
This is all you need:
Apples
Caramel 
(you can by individual ones and melt them, but I am using the wrap)
Sticks
Wax Paper
Toppings 
(M'Ms, chocolate chips, nuts, etc.)

Caramel apple wraps that you can find at the market.

Use different kinds of apples for more flavors.


Pick some of your favorite toppings.

Wash your apples! (don't forget to pull out the stem)

Wrap the caramel all the way around the apple.
Almost there... Pop them in the oven for about 5 minutes to let the caramel melt.

Pour your toppings into a pan (it makes it easy to roll your apple on).


Now that wasn't too hard!


Mmm my favorite!

Happy Sunday Everyone!

Maroon. Burgundy. Wine.

Whatever you may call this color, it is so popular right now. I am seeing it everywhere, and it has become one of my favorite colors. It looks good on everyone. I bought a pair of burgundy Eunina skinny jeans last week, and i have already worn them multiple times. 

Try and mix things up this winter, not that California ever has a real winter. But instead of always wearing blacks and greys, put some color in your outfit. You could even wear a maroon scarf or carry a wine colored purse if you are too afraid to step out of your comfort zone. 




Even the celebs are catching on to the trend! 
Check out Bar Refaeli, Blake Lively, and Naomie Harris showing their love
for maroon!

Simple. Funky. Cool.

I recently purchased this new Aztec sweater made by Lush. I am absolutely obsessed with it, and have been wanting to wear it everyday! Here are a few different ways to wear a big open sweater:


SIMPLE



FUNKY




COOL









In my first look, I am wearing a black American Apparel t-shirt paired with burgundy Eunina skinny jeans. I dressed it up with a pair of black heels. In my second look, I am wearing a neon yellow American Apparel tank top with black jean shorts layered over tights and high knee socks. I kept it funky with a beanie and combat boots. In my last look, I am wearing a black Brandy & Melville dress with a pair of black high top Converse. I love piecing together new outfits by keeping my simple, funky, and cool style.
