WEEKEND JOGGERS

I love having easy weekend mornings where nothing is really planned. Walking around different San Francisco neighborhoods is one of my favorite things to do. You can always find little hidden gems. We made a stop at Black Jet Baking Co. Everything is baked fresh daily. I’m obsessed with the plain ...

“MAMAN” UNIFORM

jacket| sweatshirt similar one here and similar tee here| leggings| shoes| sunglasses Is it wrong to wear these faux leather leggings at least twice a week? I think not!! I find myself grabbing these a lot lately. They are flattering and offer lots of comfort while still looking stylish. I also have the grey moto version of these leggings and love them just as much. For size reference, I am wearing a size medium. I’ve been wearing them ...

BLACK AND GREY

shirt| jacket| scarf| jeans| mules I’m back! After taking a very long break from blogging, I feel so refreshed and more motivated to blog again. I still struggle with shooting outfits because sometimes I’d rather enjoy my time and not deal with taking photos or stress about that. I’m working on being more present with the now. So with that said, I’m going to really try to be on top of outfit posts! My mom and I ...

LEOPARD PRINT

sweatshirt| jeans| sunglasses| sandals Leopard print is going to be big this fall! I personally have always loved leopard print. It’s the best neutral print and mixes well when paired with other prints, such as stripes. I found this comfy Adidas sweatshirt from Nordstrom a few weeks ago. I love the mix of two different leopard prints. It’s the perfect sweatshirt to throw on over leggings, but looks just as good with a pair of ...

SMILE BRILLIANT TOOTHBRUSH

We take brushing our teeth very seriously around here! If you follow me on instagram, you would have seen a little unboxing video I did for my new electric toothbrush!

I still use my whitening kit, but I will get into more detail about that shortly. Anyways, let me give you some ...

LOVERS + FRIENDS LACED BIKINI// HAWAII ROUND-UP PART 1

swim top| swim bottom| sunglasses Alright, finally getting around to posting an iPhone diary/ round-up of my trip to Hawaii. For some background, we stayed in Honolulu on Oahu, but specifically Hawaii Kai. Instead of a hotel, my family and I stayed in a house on the canals. Really beautiful house and very calm and relaxing area. It’s nice to stay in a house with a kitchen so you don’t have to eat out every meal. With a toddler, ...

It’s a lot of work, but I loved it! Stroller- I know strollers can be ...
