Been hooked to Ellie Goulding's rendition of the Weeknd's "High For This"! Other than that, how awesome is this feline dress? The mesh trail, sold! Perfect as a slip to wear around the pool or tied up in a knot for a more casual look. I'm always on the lookout for something unique!

Cameo Lover

Making cut out tees a little more chic by pairing it with some pumps seem to be a default look for me recently. Not to mention, this diamond tee courtesy of Swaychic has an amazing side cut out perfect for the summer heat. Accessorizing with my new gifted watch from the Boy and playing off the gold accented heel from these awesome pumps courtesy of MyHotShoes to top the look off. These pictures are a little overdue from a few weeks ago at a Night Market held in Pasadena. A day full of food booths and eating for half a day makes up for the perfect Saturday spent with some friends!

The Renaissance









(Top c/o SWAYCHIC | Booties c/o MyHotShoes | Shorts - Guess |Bracelet - Chicago Boutique)
Oh my goodness! Sorry for being out of the blogging loop! I just got back from yet another trip to Chicago to visit The Boy. However, this time we made a few day trips to Wisconsin for shopping and an awesome Renaissance themed fair! This striped top sent over to me by the kind people of SWAYCHIC has one of the most unique cut outs I've ever seen on a top! It also has a deep low back cut in which I wish I had taken pictures of. Its' flowing structure and material allows for a very relaxed look, OR you could have a more daisy dukes feel by just tying a knot in the front like so. Paired with these awesome booties courtesy of myhotshoes my little country inspired outfit was complete. Hope you guys enjoy these pictures!

Chained up

 Decided to take the Monday off after an all girls weekend trip to Las Vegas in order to recharge myself for the week. I was able to take my family out to dinner at a DineLA restaurant which turned out very well because French cuisine is one of my mom's favs. Wore this outfit to dinner and I CANNOT get over these shorts cause if it's silky material and fun vintage print. These wedges c/o of MyHotShoes are also made out of the softest suede and structured for comfort. Use code JOANNIE2 and receive 20% off their entire site! 


Have you guys attended any DineLA events this past week?

This past weekend basically reminded me of how I haven't fully utilized being a Californian this summer. Biking along the coast, sitting on the beach, and pigging out with our feet dipped in the sand, my Saturday was as calm and Californian as can be and I am definitely not complaining! The perfect summer weather called for light colors and short shorts. Thankfully, I found these lace shorts from ZARA. Loving the scalloped detail on them the most. These heels c/o of MyHotShoes are also a great median between casual and dressy. Of course I didn't wear them to the beach, but rather to a pleasant dinner afterwards. Hope all you lovely readers had a relaxing weekend as well! Until next time <3

Teenage Dream









(Top & Shorts - Forever 21 | Bracelet - Ebay | Bag - Michael Kors | Wedges c/o MyHotShoes
Grabbing brunch with $10 bottomless Mimosas was the perfect way to end my weekend. Not to mention the previous night we had undergone a nerve racking mission and snuck into the Katy Perry Movie after a showing of Spider-man (1st time in years!). Anyway, just an easy breezy outfit for the day. I am absolutely in love with this MK satchel, its become my new go to bag along with these wedges c/o of MyHotShoes which are more than comfortable. They're the perfect mocks of Steve Maddens! Score them on the website and get 20% off with code JOANNIE2!

Happy Monday!

I am Titanium












( Top c/o Akufuncture | Shorts - Guess | Flats c/o MyHotShoes
 A casual outfit perfect for the weekend movie dates that I had with my gal friends. Must I say,  Ted was absolutely HILARIOUS!  These spiked loafers sent over to me by MyHotShoes called for some red lipstick and ripped denim. Instantly felt more tough, cause I could probably use them as self defense as well! Here are some food porn for you guys to enjoy. Hope everyone has a splendid 4th of July!
