White-Eyed Dress

 A.P.C. Lace Eyelet Dress, Vagabond Boots

Took this eyelet dress out for a change and fell in love with it all over again. It was shoved into the gapes of my closet and I oddly happened to spot it. The weather approved of this outfit as it turned out to be warmer than expected, warm enough for me to have these photos taken without freezing. Now that's a warm San Francisco day for ya.

Makeshift LBD

American Apparel Jacquard Lace Tee, Champion Sports Bra (Similar), UO Neoprene Skirt (Similar), Superga Cotu Classic

I love all black outfits because they're simple to create and you know you'll always look chic at the end of the day. For this look, I played with several textures including sheers, neoprene, and cotton. I practically wear sports bras year round after falling into the habit of doing so during my boxing days. I discretely showed this by putting a sheer lace tee over it. High-waisted neoprene skirt under all of this and you just created yourself a makeshift little black dress. Pair this with sneakers for a day around town or heels for a night out. I chose my Supergas since I strolled around the park after these photos were taken.

March Haul

Trying out a new kind of post with last month's haul.
Free People Thermal (Similiar)
This unbelievably soft shirt will most likely stay on my back for a while until late summer comes by or when this erratic weather normalizes. But even then I'd probably still be wearing it. 

Free People Cardigan
Cozy cardigans are staple pieces in my closet. I love their versatility for being able to just toss over a shirt or layer under a larger coat for those who are still in cooler springs like San Francisco. And not to mention, you can never go wrong with this musty green colour. 

I went ahead and purchase this buttery soft leather mini from Juicy just because it felt time for a change. I've always preferred smaller bags and this was the perfect size to fit my basic essentials. Perhaps now I can give my other black mini a rest. 

Blowpro Shampoo and Conditioner
I've been meaning to try a new shampoo and conditioner for some time now and stumbled across these blowpro ones. They have a fresh citrus lemon scent that just got me to buy them. I am definitely looking forward to giving this new product a try.

Blush Tones

Patagonia Coat, Lucky Brand Top and Jeans, Gap Suede Mini

For a day of wandering and eating, I pulled out my blush toned purse that I'd practically forgotten about. I saw it peaking out of my closet and thought it'd go well with my ensemble. I paired my creme embellished top with a richer darker denim which I surprisingly really liked. Lately I've been cropping all my denim so today was no excuse not to. I feel like it just adds a little something to finish the outfit.
