Fashion or Famine x Trinkets & Trends

I am so excited to share this post with you guys today! So, you know how I told you a while back that I went to the Rose Bowl Flea Market with one of my fave bloggers, Fashion or Famine? Well, I can finally share with you what we did there & why we went! 

I knew Christa Jayne would be my go to girl for a crash course in vintage & flea market shopping tips so I picked her brain & ended up learning a ton & making a new friend ( love it when that happens! ). So check it out below and then head over to Christa Jayne's blog when you're done!

Level 9

Top: Free People | Pants: Rich & Skinny | Boots: DVF (old, love this similar pair here) | Bag: Cole Haan (similar style here)

Good morning loves! I hope you're having an awesome start to the day - I'm currently snuggling with the pup :)

I wore this little number earlier this week for meetings up in LA. I am a huge fan of the classic black & white combo and this outfit is no exception. I am obsessed with the back of this blouse (you can see it here) - makes it stand out from your normal white button up! 

Do you love a good black & white combo too?

Chartreuse

Blazer: BCBG MaxAzria | Bodysuit: American Apparel | Shorts: BCBG MaxAzria | Heels: Via Spiga | Clutch: Clare Vivier 

How awesome is this blazer / short combo? They were just 2 of my Black Friday finds & I couldn't be happier with them! 

This blazer is absolutely fab - the color & cut just make my day. The shorts aren't too shabby either... the metallic material is too good to be true as you can easily dress it up or down! 

Did you go shopping on Black Friday?

Thanksgiving

 Top: What Goes Around Comes Around (old, obsessed with this dress by them)  | Pants: Bec & Bridge (old, love this newer style here) | Wedges: Joe's Jeans

I totally unplugged on Thanksgiving & Black Friday last week so I apologize for my delay in posting! I hope you guys all had an amazing Thanksgiving feast with your family & friends!

This is what I wore to my Thanksgiving dinner down in San Diego - harem pants are the best when you're overindulging in stuffing & mashed potatoes! 

Happy Monday love bugs!

Pattern Play

Jacket: Gap (old, obsessed with these styles here, here & here this season) | Top: Equipment (more amazing styles here - the fit is amaze!) | Jeans: Rich & Skinny | Boots: Via Spiga | Bag: Rebecca Minkoff

I know everyone thinks the most of the town they live in, but I just have to say that Newport Beach has the BEST sunsets ever! I grew up a couple of blocks from the beach & have been near the beach my entire life (except when I went to school in Northern California) & I have never seen consistently stunning sunsets like we experience here. So, if you ever find yourself in Newport, be sure to stick around for the sunset - you won't be disappointed!

I was feeling kind of spunky last night & played with patterns & textures for dinner & a movie. On another note...I can't believe Thanksgiving is tomorrow - this is by far my favorite holiday! How are you celebrating?

Leather Cardi

Cardigan: Michael Stars | Top: Gap (old, similar style here) | Jeans: Citizens Of Humanity | Wedges: DVF | Necklace: gorjana

Welp, the new pup was ready for her close up this morning so we decided to throw her in the shoot! Besides stealing the spot light, the puppy loved my white jeans way too much and I am currently sporting a few brown paw prints on the pants...new look? Probably not! 

Ok, but let me tell you about this sweater for a hot minute. I am seriously obsessed - not only is it super comfy but the leather sleeves are kind of amazing! I am almost debating wearing this again on Thanksgiving as it has the perfect amount of coziness to it for when you go into a food coma! 

I hope you guys are enjoying your Tuesday!

Glitter Patches

 

Vest: WGACA | Top: Brandy Melville (similar style here) | Leggings: MinkPink | Boots: rag & bone | Bag: Deux Lux | Necklace: gorjana | Rings: gorjana (here & here)

Now that the weather has officially changed, I've got leggings, layers & leather on my mind. When I saw these fun leggings, I knew I had to have them - I mean, who doesn't love a little glitter in your outfit? These are perfect for the Holiday Party circuit I'm sure you're all embarking on - throw on your favorite button up blouse (I'm thinking white, burgundy or gold!) and a pair of pumps...voila! You've got yourself a pretty bangin' outfit :)

Happy Monday lovebugs! If you follow me on Instagram, I'm sure you've seen that the boy and I got a puppy this weekend - I definitely have my hands full for the next few months!

Metallic & Cuffed

Sweater: Zara (Love this Free People version) | Jeans: Rich & Skinny | Heels: Joe's Jeans | Clutch: Clare Vivier (Obsessed with this cobalt blue version)

I wore this little number last night to the Pop Carts event with Clare Vivier, Heidi Merrick & ban.do at The Grove! I had such an awesome time and even got to meet the amazing Clare - by far my favorite moment! You can check out all the festivities on my Instagram and be sure to head over to The Grove to check out the cute Pop Carts for yourself - you won't be disappointed! 

I have to chat about these metallic beauties for 2 seconds...1. They're totally big on me but I'm kind of digging that slouchy look these days 2. I am obsessed with a cuffed jean and these bad boys are no exception - too good not to try on all your jeans! :)

I hope you guys are having an amazing week!

Sweater Dress

 

Dress: AIKO | Boots: rag & bone | Sunnies: Chloé

Shot these photos while I was in San Diego for meetings yesterday. I always make a point to stop and see my fam bam every time I'm in SD and yesterday was such a gorgeous day I had to make a quick stop at the beach. 

I love this sweater dress - you don't need much else to make an outfit! I paired my fave rag & bone booties for a more put together look but would totally rock this dress with Chucks on the weekends!

Hope you guys are having an awesome week! I'm off to LA for more meetings and a little socializing...more details to come! 

P.S. Papa Melville (aka my dad) took these photos - he did pretty well, huh? Thanks Pops!

Mustard Yellow

Sweater: Forever 21 (super old, obsessed with this newer style)| Jeans: J Brand | Heels: Jeffrey Campbell (old, similar style here)

Discovered this sweater this morning in the back of my closet - what a good find! There is so much grandma vibe in this sweater that I kinda had to tone down the rest of the outfit...too perfect to throw over some colored skinnies and a comfy pair of heels that have their own grandma vibe to them :)

Have such a crazy week ahead of me - can't wait to get it started! I hope you all enjoyed your Veteran's Day yesterday!

50 Shades of Blue

Jacket:  H&M (old, this ASOS beauty is on sale & on trend with studs & camo!) | Button Up: Unknown (men's section somewhere; similar style here) | Long Sleeve Tee: Michael Stars | Jeans: Rich & Skinny (old, grabbing these stunners for Winter) | Boots: Cole Haan (similar style here) | Sunnies: Chloé | Necklaces: gorjana (here & here) | Rings: gorjana 

Halleh-FALL-ujah! Cold weather has finally arrived in SoCal!

Wore this little menswear (ok, maybe lumberjack?) inspired number yesterday for meetings in LA - might have been the best decision since sliced bread. I am all for an army-esque parka (on the hunt for an amazing green one too) and these Cole Haan boots are going to be glued to my feet for the next few weeks - so comfy!

Hope you guys have an awesome weekend ahead! The boy & I are hosting a sushi & sake party at ours tonight...things could get interesting! :)
