It's Friday!! I cannot believe that 2 weeks from now I will be at Coachella!! I really hope it's the experience I have been dreaming of. If any of you really know me, you would know I'm obsessed with Lana Del Rey. I remember when I saw she was this featured artist or artist to see on YouTube and I instantly fell in love. It was about maybe a year after she got really big and people were like ohhh now I know who you're talking about. She is just something special. I cannot wait for her new album to come out!!

Onto today's outfit. My mom recently gave me this skirt and once I tried it on, I knew I had to do an outfit out of this cute skirt. There are a lot more ideas I could have gone with, but I went with a preppy look since most of my recent looks are aimed for Coachella, so I wanted to change it up. I think it's the perfect preppy outfit I have come out with. I'm obsessed with it. I hope you love it like I do.

I LOVE YOU ALL!!

REMEMBER TO BE & LOVE YOURSELF!!

Mixing Prints, part 2...

Yet again everything is Forever 21 /.\

I took these pictures at the Petco Park in sunny San Diego. SD seems to not get that it's winter so unfortunately I cannot do winter outfits, and instead I'm forced to spring/summer outfits. I'm hoping that winter will come soon so I could show you some of winter outfit ideas. 

Polka dots and florals work very well together and which is why I love this outfit. This outfit is definitely a risk, but it's a great risk. It can be preppy or you can make it "hipster." I hope you all love this look!!

REMEMBER TO BE & LOVE YOURSELF!!

LOVE YOU ALL!!

XOXO,

Sweetheart Sweater...

For everything is Forever 21.

Everytime I wear this sweater, I think of Pitch Perfect. I think of the part where she traces her heart shirt after learning she's going to get to solo. If you have not watched that movie, I recommend you do! This look was designed around my light purple lipstick. I really love this preppy look and hope you do too!!

There was many ways I could have worked around the purple lipstick but I really wanted to do a very preppy look. I thought my glitter heart sweater was the perfect fit. This is not one of my fav sweaters but I couldn't help but love the cute heart on it. 

REMEMBER TO BE YOURSELF AND LOVE YOURSELF!

XOXO,

My fabulous photographer for the day. Love you danessa.

Isn't she a cutie? 

I have to start with, I have never felt so classy, girly, and preppy in my life. I was so in love with this outfit, like you have no idea. I was all excited to wear this outfit. It's definitely the perfect combination of colors and the coat is perfect if you are in chilly weather. It was finally cold in SD, and well if you live in SD, you would know why I saw it was FINALLY cold. Fall/winter weather doesn't really hit SD probably till mid November. If we're lucky, it can hit towards the end of October.

As I told you loves, my posts are going to deal with the Forever 21 Instagram contest going on right now. The theme for this post was, jewelry. I thought the prize from my XXI contest I won, was perfect. I was so excited when I opened my prize to see I won this. I love statement necklaces. They have such an impact on your outfit. They can transform it very easily. This necklace is perfect if you're going for elegance, or preppy. They are kind of the same. I feel preppy is a little more laid back, and being classy or elegant is, well the type of parties Gatsby would throw.

Hope you all love this look. Love you all.

xoxo,
