Bodysuits and Boyfriend Jeans

Guys. I just got back from walking all around Disneyland and California Adventure all day long (I'm writing this last night). And I'm so beat. Like I couldn't have hung for any longer, maybe even would have left sooner. :P I went with my hubby's whole family (his EIGHT brothers and sisters and his parents). Unfortunately Ben had to work so he didn't get to come. :( But it was still super fun, and I got my happiest place on earth fill. I seriously LOVE Soarin' Over California so much. It makes me happy to live where we do in such a beautiful place! Now I'm ready for this week to be over already. :P My hubby has been working way too many hours, and I MISS him. But I'm mostly ready for the end of the week because Sunday is our ONE YEAR anniversary! And we are headed up to Santa Barbara for a few nights to celebrate. I. Can't. Wait. I have a fun wedding post coming later this week so stay tuned!

I wore this outfit a few weeks ago on a coffee date with my hubby to Portola Coffee Lab at the OC Mix Mart. Boyfriend jeans are my absolute favorite right now. I just can't have enough pairs! These American Eagle ones are way baggier than most I own. Actually if I unrolled them, you might think I stole my little brother's jeans. But I love that about them! Last time I wore them I paired them with a crop, and this time I paired them with a body suit! Normally I actually really love loose tees with boyfriend jeans but because these are extra baggy I like to contrast them with a tighter piece. It also helps to keep a feminine look to the outfit. What is your favorite way to wear boyfriend jeans?

California: Home Sweet Home

So today I'm featuring this cutest tank from Royal Bowtique! I've grown up in California my WHOLE life. I've actually only lived two places, my parents and the apartment I'm in now. I love where I live! There's the beach and mountains, and the weather is nearly always perfect. I love that California is the place I call "home". I paired my tank with these cute floral shorts and a kimono. I love a loose graphic tee paired with fun bottoms!
How's everyone's week? Mine has been busy so far! I actually thought yesterday was Thursday. Whoops. I went from not being super busy to everything happening at once! Aka errrrbody wants their hair did. :P Yesterday I met up with Aly of Living In Style OC (@livinginstyleoc; if you live in the area, make sure to follow her! She posts about food, fashion and fun in Orange County!) and another friend, and we will be having a fun girly event coming for you soon so stay tuned for details on that! 

Hope you all have a blessed day! 

Blessed are those whose ways are blameless, who walk according to the law of the Lord. Blessed are those who keep his statutes and seek him with all their heart. Psalm 119:1-2

Structured Skirt

Happy Thursday! I literally cannot say enough good things about this skirt from Pretty Pants Boutique! I had been wanting one of these skirts for a long time and had actually tried on a few but with how they were structured and meant to fit, they wouldn't sit high enough on my waist! I can't tell you how excited I was when I got this in the mail, and it fit perfectly! Besides that, I love that the material is different than most of the ones that are out there right now. If you look closely, it's sort of a mesh-looking material but still super good quality! I highly recommend it! I paired it with this bodysuit I found at TJ Maxx. I know some of you can't imagine the thought of wearing a bodysuit again and bringing back the childhood traumas of trying to use the bathroom with one on, but seriously do it! They are perfect for high-waisted clothing items because they create clean lines without you having to worry about tucking your shirt in constantly!
Ben and I went to the OC Fair last night! We ate a corn dog and deep-fried avocados. Bomb dot com. And we watched a crazy acrobatics show and walked around the art and photography exhibits. There are some crazy talented people out there! Make sure you go if you live in the area!

OH and thank you to my lovely friend, Dayena, for these awesome photos and for giving my hubby a break. ;)

xoxoxo,
Christine

Floral Romper and a Statement Stone

Hello, ladies! How was that Fourth of July weekend for ya?! Let me just say, I wish I could go back. Three days of no work, my hubby, friends and family and fireworks, and of course, ice cream and coffee. Basically perfect. Oh, and we went to the beach too. And I got to see my cutie pie nephew and babysit while everyone else was unpacking after moving. So I definitely got the better end of the deal. 
Now on to this outfit! I am LOVING this floral romper. Its light and airy and has a Free People vibe to it but its price point was better suited to my budget needs. (Thanks, TJ Maxx for always delivering!). I paired it with my Forever 21 denim vest and this new gem from Shop Pretty Pants! It's the cutest little bright pink stone, and all the stone shapes and sizes vary which I think is pretty cool because yours and mine won't be exactly the same! Make sure you check them out! I pinned this hairstyle the other day on Pinterest, and I had to try it! To see what kind of things I'm pinning, you can follow me here! Hope you all have a great Tuesday!!! xoxox, Christine

Floral Pants and Crop

Happpppy Memorial Day, Everyone! I hope today you take a minute to think about all of those who have sacrificed and continue to sacrifice their lives and their time for our freedoms. Today I am especially thankful for my husband who serves in the Marine Corps Reserves with the Crash Fire Rescue (and Brett and Mike!) and my brother, Luke, an F-16 Figther Pilot for the Air Force.
This outfit is from one of our nights out in Vegas when we went to dinner and walked around the hotels. I love anything I can pair with a crop top, and these pants are the most comfortable thing ever. Ben says they look like pajamas but I don't really care. :P I also added my leather vest to the outfit for some warmth and interest.

Hope you all have the best day. Tomorrow is back to work for me after over a week off, and I'm actually excited!

xoxoxo, Christine
