Unboxing: Nasty Gal

My package came in the mail today! I ordered these rain boots from Nasty Gal and they were on clearance for $30.. such a good deal. I really bought these so that I could have shoes that I could wear at Big Bear next week, since they're waterproof. I wish it was actually raining right now in LA so I could use them out!
                                     

SOTD: Shoes of the Day

Technically this is a late shoes of the day (a couple of days ago). Our friend Camille had some cute platform Vans and she was rockin them all fierce! We love Vans and we love her!

It's Your Birthday!

Totally forgot to post the pictures from our friend's birthday on Friday. She's finally 20! We went to get KBBQ and then had some delicious cake from Portos! Again happy birthday Sammy!

OOTD: Tomboy

Every girl has those days where they just want to throw on some jeans and flannel and call it a day. I actually have those days quite often...today was no exception! Here's my version of a lazy day!

Flannel - Mango
Jeans - Levi's
Shoes - Nordstrom Rack
Bag - Madewell

Cut It Out

Today, I stopped by the store where I work, Francesca's, to pick up these boots that I put on hold a few days ago. We recently got these boots in and right when I saw them I fell in love! The original price is $48 and they're by the brand, Vintage 93. I think it's a really good deal, especially how these look almost exactly like the Jeffrey Campbell white cutout boots! I'm so excited to pair these with some outfits (: If any of you ladies want these boots, stop by your nearest Francesca's before they're sold out!

Haulin': Part Deux

Still feeling the Levi's spirit everything in this haul is also from Levi's. I found a commuter series jacket that originally was sold for about $120 after the sale and additional percentage off I ended up getting it for about $38. While sifting through the rest of the outer wear I found a denim vest IN MY SIZE. The vest is originally $75 and I got it for $12. The last item from this haul is a mustard color beanie. It's originally $28 and I got it for $6. Unfortunately it's been hot in SoCal so I cannot wear the jacket or beanie, but I think I'll break in the vest sometime this week!

Haulin': Part 1

Shoes, shoes and more shoes! This is part one to our Santa Monica/back to school haul. By now you guys should know Marie and I love deals. We are major bargain hunters! I used to be hesitant when it came to buying boots mainly because I was lacking in confidence. Now I feel as though I'm kind of addicted to them....These two babies are the latest additions to my collection.

Both shoes were bought from Levi's...We love Levi's
Boots - $22.00
High Tops - $22.00
Total - $44.00

Thrift Sift: Gone Fishin'

Since I received some positive feedback for my previous thrift sift I thought I'd share another one. This is one of my favorite thrift items cause it's so nifty! Also sorry our haul video and post is taking so long. There aren't enough hours in a day to get all these things done! Do not fret we shall post it this week! Also the reason why this post is called "Gone Fishin'" is because the prints on the shirt consists of lures and fishes LOL

AND our Instagram in the sidebar!

Again I have to cuff the sleeves because they are so long.

The brand of the shirt is Woolrich.

OOTD: Pattern Mix

Lately in LA we've been having a very warm winter... today was 80 degrees! I decided to wear something comfortable and something that would keeping me cool without looking too "weather confused" lol. I kept my outfit simple with a plain t-shirt from Madewell with some beading on it and J Brand medium wash ankle jeans. To add some interest in my outfit, I wore Diane Von Furstenburg leopard printed flats and I finished everything off with a classic Louis Vuitton purse. I ended up feeling stylish and comfortable at the same time (:

Date Night: Santa Monica Barney's Beanery

Marie and I went to the 3rd Street Promenade today to buy some clothes before school starts next week. We ended up with a pretty big haul. After hours of walking and shopping our bellies were grumbling. We stopped by Barney's Beanery and got WAY more than we bargained for.

She's so cute!

I was so excited to eat aha

I ordered a calzone and it was literally a foot long!

Marie ordered the chicken salad sandwich (one of the best we've had)

Sock 'em!

I was in DIRE need of socks. Whenever I do my laundry either someone secretly steals one side of my socks or I just somehow lose them. After a few loads of laundry I ended up with about 7 socks that weren't in pairs. I used this as excuse and managed to persuade Marie into going with me to Marshals to buy some socks!

Happy Socks make me happy haha

The bottom 3 were 3 for $6.99 so I couldn't pass it up!

Thrift Sift

The sleeve on the shirt was long so I had to cuff them

Not a perfect fitting shirt but it's not bad seeing as it was only $1

So a few days ago Marie and I went thrifting. Out of all of our items I only washed one LOL. I will post up an updated version as soon as we finish washing the clothes and pick up the rest from dry cleaning.

 If you guys have any questions about where we go or anything feel free to leave a comment! (:

SOTD : Shoes Of The Day

Tim thought the shoes looked nice on the carpet aha

After wearing them a day I already got them a little dirty..

Going back to the old school classic Vans checker board slip-ons! I just bought them yesterday after days of contemplating if I should buy them... so I caved.

Earth...Urth

After our exhausting walk through the concert hall we decided to fuel ourselves at Urth Cafe in downtown LA. We ended up ordering too much food and ended up having a food coma lol. Overall it was a pretty good day!

Disney Concert Hall

About a week ago we visited the Disney Concert Hall in LA with our friend, Julius. We didn't expect much from it, we were just curious to see the structure and take some pictures. The building is actually really interesting. When you walk to the top level there's a nice little garden and sometimes you may even run into a couple of wedding photo shoots!

Also check out our YouTube video! (watch in HD)

Helping Hands for Haiyan

Dana and I (Marie)

The sign that we worked so hard on!

 Recently, we helped our friend, Dana, put together a benefit concert for the victims of Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines. We were able to fill up a majority of the seats and raise a good amount of money. We're so proud of her, all of her planning and scheduling paid off. It's quite remarkable how a tragedy can bring so many strangers together in order to help out those in need. Here is a video of our friends' performance.
