Typical LA | OOTD

Hey Lovelies!

I am just taking a little break from work before having to go back into focus productive mode! I have been really lacking on post lately but that will be explained at the end of this, for now lets get started with this OOTD.

This day started off as a not-so-typical-LA-shoot to a full on mainstream-touristy-cliche LA-shoot. I really wanted to visit the Architecture + Design museum building before they demolish it for the new metro station but I guess they decided to shut it down early? It was suppose to go on until the end of April, instead it was already closed when I went 2 weeks ago. Boo. So the closest, walkable place to go was none other than the infamous LACMA.

True story.. I once drove by at night and saw a man dressed as Jesus emerging from the glowing lamp post with his arm raised high approaching the busy LA Streets.

I have been using this bag a ton lately and you will never guess how much it was. $5! YES! Only in Asia… sorry. I have decided that if this purse dies on me then I will invest in one that is similar in color because this red compliments almost any outfit. Its not a vibrant red so it won’t stick out as a in you face statement piece but it is also colorful enough to where you won’t miss it (c’mon its red).

Give yourself a break this summer from denim shorts and pick up a pair of beige/khaki shorts! Denim is great but these shorts transition from day to night so much more effortlessly.

I am swamped and crazy busy for the next couple of weeks trying to get a show together so that means sleepless nights until opening day. For that reason, my normal posting will resume at the end of May! I have 2 haul videos that has been filmed and one completely edited but I am having such a hard time converting it since my computer has run out of disk space. The frustration of constantly moving things into my external has got me pulling my hair out. There is only so much I can remove from my computer without it handicapping me when I work on-the-go. OKAY enough ranting about my computer problems! Hopefully I can get those 2 hauls up and if not I’ll just post them as a blog post which will save me hours of work.

Thank you guys so much for reading and I’ll see you in my next post
❤ Jess

Good afternoon!

I just couldn’t wait to wear some of the pieces I recently picked up from H&M so here is the gray jersey with sheer arm panels. 



The weather has been super nice in SoCal so it was warm enough to wear shorts but a light sweater is needed as well because temperature can drop quite a bit when the sun goes down.

Good Day Everyone!

I think I might need some color in my life.. what do you think? Subconsciously I automatically gravitate towards the white, black, and in between gray. The moment I stepped into the dressing room I noticed that these pieces are not the most vibrant colors but thats pretty much my closet. This was one of those casual shopping trips where you’re not really expecting to buy something but it just happens that everything in the store appeals to you.

I love basic casual wear because we get the most wear out of them AND its the most comfortable.

Striped Shirt – $17.95 Casual legging length shirt are the best!

Jersey Top – $14.95 The sheer panels on the arm are what drew me in. Its the little details that sucker me in.

White Long Shirt – $9.95 White shirts with a collar and pockets are the best to match anything and everything. I need one that is long enough for me to tuck without me worrying that its going to be slipping out throughout the day. I’m not sure if I will be keeping this because it fits a bit weird with the cutting of the shoulder and underarms.

Holy Chic – $9.95 I can lounge around with this at home or wear it as a casual sweater. If I want to look a  bit more put together then I can just layer a collared shirt underneath. All 3 options for only 10 bucks.

Since the title is 50 Shades can I just take a moment to talk about it just for the heck of it. I have not read the books but I do know what it’s about from word of mouth. I did end up watching it with some girlfriends because they wanted to and I have to say that it was a hilarious movie for the stiffness and awkward moments. I am not a fan of the Twilight movies so I have to say that this was even more stiff and awkward than Twilight (which I didn’t know was possible until now). For that, I recommend you to go watch it for you entertainment (:

Until Next Time,
❤ Jess
