JANUARY INSPO

It's a little hard to keep up with all the latest and greatest trends. I obsess over so many things, but then something new comes along and I'm captivated by the next fad. Oh, the ever so wonderful world of fashion. Always evolving. Since my obsessions change constantly I wanted to share some of the things I've been loving this month. 

(Btw I pulled these photos off of Pinterest) 

Lace Camisoles

I'm all about essentials aka key pieces in your closet... the lace cami is definitely an item you can wear all year round. The "lingerie look" was all the rage on the runways of NYFW, and I don't see it dying down anytime soon.

Tuxedo/Blazer Dresses

I applaud women who can wear a perfectly polished pantsuit (try saying that 3 times fast). In my opinion, it's one of the hardest looks to pull off. Luckily, the tuxedo dress is right up my alley. A feminine spin on a tux... So chic! I desperately need it in my wardrobe. 

Sneakers

Comfortability is key nowadays. Pairing your outfit with sneakers is a trend I'm absolutely in love with. Sneakers are always a little tricky to dress up. I'm always worried about whether I look too casual, but if styled correctly you can look just as effortless as these girls in the photos. Just think of how happy and sore-free your feet will be. 

Layered Necklaces & Black Chokers

Michael Kors said that accessories are the exclamation point of a women's outfit, and I couldn't agree more. Every women is different. Some like to over-acessorize, and others not at all. I like to stick with a happy medium. Two things that's been circulating my feeds are chokers and layered necklaces. Layered necklaces speak for itself, and it can make all the difference if you pair it with a simple outfit. I can't tell you how excited I am to sport a black choker again. Talk about 8th grade nostalgia... 

Nude Lips

For an everyday casual look I usually gravitate towards the mauve and "lolita" like colors for my lips, but lately I've been all about nudes. Actually it's more like nude as in singular, because the one I've been wearing is Too Faced Melted Nude Liquid Lipstick. It's a struggle for me to find a nude shade that doesn't wash me out completely. So you can imagine my excitement to finally get some positive feedback on this one particular color. 

RUNYON CANYON

I totally underestimated Runyon Canyon. (Note-to-self: Do more cardio!) I can see why it's such a popular hiking trail. I didn't think I was going to be rock climbing, hopping over wooden logs, or huffing and puffing up a continuous series of stairs, but it was so worth it. It's a fun challenge surrounded by scenic views of the city, and I promise even through the Los Angeles smog it's quite impressive.

CARNIVAL CRUISE

I enjoyed this cruise more than I thought I would've. If you love to eat and love vegas, then this is definitely something you have to experience. Just think of a Vegas hotel floating on water with 24 hour access to free food. I was so nervous to be on a ship for a week, because I used to get sea sick riding on my dad's naval ship when I was younger. A little tip for people who get motion sickness - Buy Sea Band, it worked wonders. Without it I would've probably puked my brains out. 

CATALINA ISLAND

The first time I heard of Catalina was on the t.v. show Laguna Beach. I never thought I'd have the opportunity to come here. This island is such a nice getaway from the city. I'm in dire need to come back once it gets warmer. Fyi, it's a free roundtrip ride on your birthday!
