Outfits of my week

After I mentioned I’d be bringing back outfits of the week I only kept it up for one week. Fail on my part! I had been taking pictures continuously for the second week then dropped off the face of the selfie planet for a few weeks there after. Fret not… here are some more self timed portraits for you to take a oggle at! I’ll try to remember to take daily pictures again. It’s easy to forget, especially since it’s been close to 2 years since I had been doing it regularly.

I need to say something about this even though you guys probably didn’t even notice. Here’s me bringing attention to it! The second last picture was taken at 6:30am before I headed out the door to attend an all-day blog conference in San Francisco. I had caked on too much makeup in hopes of covering up my hives, hence the weird colouring/flash photography and chunky jawline lol :(

If you’d like me to continue weekly OOTD’s, please comment! :)outfits-weekly

You know what I missed? Outfits of the week!

It has been ages since I have done an outfits of the work week post, and since I am not working or dressing somewhat professionally on the regular, I let it slide.

Now that I have relocated to California with my husband and our pup, my style has become more laid back, with wearing jeans and tee-shirts type of deal on the regular; and I’m quite okay with that. I totally would’ve worn some of these outfits to work, if were acceptable. Maybe not the ripped jeans or the leggings though ;)

So I think I’m going to bring the outfits of the week back. Maybe not on a weekly basis like I used to do and post every Friday, but either bi-weekly or monthly. I think my style is pretty boring lately but who knows, maybe now that I’m publishing it on my blog I’ll get more motivation to style my outfits even if I’m not heading out anywhere. A lot of people expressed their interest, and said they have missed my OOTD posts — I’m happily surprised! But I too have missed doing them. Oh, also I won’t be linking where everything is from, since everything I own is quite old, or basics from your generic stores (forever 21 for instance, I don’t care if I’m too old to shop there, they have some amazing tee’s sometimes! Ain’t nobody got $50 to spend on a tee. That’s ridic., especially on my budget hahahaha)

Okay okay, here we go, and yes I’m wearing extensions in the last picture! (Click to enlarge the image if you want)ootw

P.S. Grey tee + white jeans is basically my summer uniform. I would wear that outfit every day if I could. Such a classic look in my opinion.

P.P.S What are your favourite outfits from this week?

California Summer: OOTD

ootd-california-summerOn Thursday my buddy Lauren and I met up for coffee at one of my favourite and coolest looking coffee shop I’ve ever found, Blue Bottle at Hana Haus in the city of Palo Alto. I took my buddy Jenna here too when she was visiting back in May. We caught up on one another’s lives since we hadn’t seen each other in over a month. Then we decided to venture out and explore Palo Alto a bit, and while we were at it, scope out some really cool spots for snapping outfit of the days together. Of course I filmed a vlog of our entire day, having expensive lunches, following it up with ice cream sandwiches and shopping at Stanford!

You’ll have to wait until Wednesday to see the YouTube video though. Subscribe so you won’t miss it!

And onto the photos. A California summer OOTD :)

vloggingApparently this is what I look like when I vlog, and get caught on camera. I was laughing here at Lauren snapping photos of me vlogging. It was a bit awkward, I’m still not used to whippin’ out the ol’ vlogging camera in public at any given time.

vlogging-in-publicFake it til you make it, yo.

Hanging-at-HanaHausIsn’t HanaHaus the coolest looking coffee spot? I swear I could easily spend an entire afternoon here just people watching.

Working-on-laptopOh, and fake-working on “my” laptop (Lauren’s chromebook).  Ha!!

overheatedIf you hang out with me in person, you know I’m a little foolish. I didn’t realize Lauren was snapping away as I was getting overheated tryin’ to get some air circulatin’ under the ol’ tee shirt.

After scouting out locations we found this really pretty european-vibe courtyard and snapped some photos there too. While the staff working there gave us smirks while we were posing. It was a little awkward!Palo-Alto-OOTD

Then onto Stanford Shopping Centre. Where I picked up a little splurge item from the Chanel makeup counter. You’ll have to watch my YouTube video on Wednesday to see what I got.
