WEEKEND INSPIRATION

This past weekend, the weather was so weird because it was gloomy and rainy on Saturday and no one wanted to do anything. Although it did give me a new interest.... collecting stylish umbrellas! 

     We stayed home all of Saturday (after Aidan's gymnastics class) and finally Sunday came and although the rain was gone, it was still a little gloomy. We were suppose to go to church but we over slept (not a good excuse I now) but I just couldn't be in the house anymore.  We decided to just do some inspirational  window shopping just so we can get out of the house. Dos Lagos Mall, here we came.  We had a lot of fun.

CASUAL FRIDAY - OOTD

It was a very very cold day today. I couldn't figure out what to wear because my "casual Fridays" are usually my dress up days.  I know I didn't want to wear anything that'll cover me up and I didn't want to wear a sweater.... so I was late to work.  All in the name of Fashion.  Ultimately I decided on my tights (my to go pants, per say) and something cute on top.  I quickly realized that I also don't have enough tops so thus, we had a problem.  I must have tried on at least 3 different outfits as my alarm clock keeps telling me to hurry it up.
     Ultimately, I decided on this vintage top/dress with my amber sun sweater coat and these amazing wedges.  I had to add some color so these shoes were perfect.  I was going to grab a pink purse but you don't want to be too "matchy-matchy" so I just grabbed this beautiful vintage quilted bag with a gold embellishment chain.  It was big enough for me to tuck in my Tory Burch flats and off I went...  My necklace btw is a belt! Isn't it a huge statement piece? I love it! I added some vintage bangles and one of my neutral rings from Forever 21 and I was ready to go.  As you can see, I don't focus too much on makeup during the week. I'm all about quick coverage, foundation, concealer, powder, bronzer, blush, highlighter, chapstick, lipstick and I'm good to go.
     After I got in my car, I realized I was in such a hurry, I forgot my scarf! It was too late to return so I went w/o one today, which was alright.  It was a crazy crazy day at work today (all week its been crazy) and believe it or not, this is my therapy.  If you are reading this, know that I am very appreciative of your time.  My good friend at work is still learning how to get the right angles so slowly but surely we will get better shots.
     I hope your Friday was good and I wish you a wonderful weekend.  My next post, I wanted to show you guys how to wear one dress 3 different ways for 3 different occasions so stay tuned! Its supposed to be a rainy weekend here in SoCal, so be safe and always think positive....
