legit cold

I woke up this morning so surprised because it's actually cold today in Los Angeles. Like I am wearing a real jacket. AND layers.

 

I couldn't be happier! *insert sunglasses smiling emoji* because it's ironic and I feel cool.

doing well

I am learning to embrace the heel. And but "heel" I mean my boots I got from Target and that's pretty much the only heel I've ever liked. Anyways - I am learning to embrace the heel, I forget how much I love my kicks. My sneakers.

   

They will forever be my true love.

The LA countdown is for real right now. It's kind of wild actually. I am "packing" and by packing I mean staring at my clothes thinking they will magical put themselves in my suitcase and boxes. A girl can dream.

 

Tip - I have the upper part of my ear pierced (I don't know what's it call - my bad) and I've been using these fun studs I got from H&M. They are in shapes of triangles, squares, and ovals. Everyone thinks it's a cuff and really likes it. So try it out for yourself.

screen time

Anyone who follows my Instagram knows about this news:

So... now I've been writing. Like crazy. Like beyond crazy. Like my eyes are killing me from starring at my computer screen for too long. But thankful, hard work has and will pay off. Don't you forget!

On the flip side - I found this great shirt today!

For those who don't know I've been friends with Mary Lambert since we were 14, angry at the world, writing poems together. We even went on tour together about two years ago. Since then she has been busy  killing it in the game. I love her and so freaking happy for her. It's so wild to see her career take off.

   

I sent her a picture of me wearing this shirt, to which we both agree only a true fan would understand the awesome vintage-ness of this shirt.

Also on that note... Pre-order her new album like RIGHT NOW!

on point. flawless.

Had a photo shoot today. I had a blast! (photos posted soon) I had the photo shoot because well.. I am headed to LA, as in I'm moving down there for awhile, as in good bye Seattle hello LA. I am freaking out. I am so excited. I am really all over the place. But I can't wait. Either way.

Because of my shoot I had to wear something basic. I know I have this outfit somewhere on my blog already but whatever, right? I mean fuck it. I was feeling myself. And I can't help it! Party people - it's OK to be confident. To think and believe you look good. Ego has a bad rep. Don't get me wrong, there is good ego and bad ego.

Just love yourself. And forget the rest. Go ahead. Be beautiful. Be flawless. Everyone should feel good in their skin.

Pipe + Row

Although Fremont is so far from home for me, I can't help but adventure out there from time to time to do a little shopping and investigating. If you ever visit Seattle or actually live in Seattle, Fremont is fun neighborhood with great food and even better shopping.

Lucky for me one of my friends Jen, who is a stylist and beauty human, works at this great boutique tucked away in Fremont called Pipe + Row. She invited me to come down, get styled, and most importantly play a little dress up.

I wasn't planning on buying anything but let's be honest that's a lie. I couldn't help myself! Pipe + Row is like a slim down, more on point Zara or Top Shop. Similar in price but unique pieces that you can't find anywhere else. Pipe + Row carries not just Seattle artist and designers but expands from coast to coast. I am talking Los Angeles to New York and then some.

  

I got a great sweater and dress but the piece I was craziest about is the amazing mesh top. I won't lie, it makes me look like I work out, when we all know I don't. But come on, do all girls wear yoga pants really ever go to yoga?!
