Happy Friday everyone and sorry if I haven’t been on my A-game when it’s come to blogging lately…between a big move to LA, a new job and attempting to find my dream apartment on a budget, I have been slightly swamped to say the least (whoever said if you can make it in NY you can make it anywhere clearly wasn’t referring to finding a decent apartment in LA or being able to drive without a ton of traffic every 5 blocks…) So yes…the struggle is real and living on your own is no joke…so to distract myself…an outfit I shot in Meat Packing before i headed cross country to make it on my own 😉

And it’s Thursday…I can’t believe how quick this week has flown by already as I am writing this from sunny California! The sun is shining, the palm trees are looking as pretty as ever and I have a hectic schedule planned ahead. So far my brother and I have visited USC (which has the most GORGEOUS campus ever btw…If I wanted to put myself in debt with student loans and pursue a Masters USC would definitely be the place…just saying :p)
Anyways, I digress…this tropical spring look is currently with me in LA and I am contemplating whether to wear it tonight to the Polo Lounge in the Beverly Hills Hotel or to wear it tomorrow night to SUR (because it wouldn’t be a trip to LA without stalking Lisa Vanderpump…yup I am a Bravo addict #GuiltyAsCharged)
Bright colors always make me happy…after being sick in bed for the past two days I am finally feeling a little better (and let me tell ya I am quite the drama queen when it comes to me being sick) and am ready to get back into my groove (whatever that may be haha). Nothing is worse than being cooped up in bed on a 90 degree day (especially after such a brutal winter) but I guess my body didn’t agree with me. So naturally I would share a bright new outfit as a little ‘pick me up‘ to me and you because let’s be real by the time Wednesday rolls around everyone needs a little pep in their step to make their way to the weekend 😉
1. Roxy ‘Oceanside’ Printed Pants :: 2. Lauren Ralph Lauren Pants :: 3. ‘Valerie’ Printed Pants :: 4. Jessica Simpson Wide Leg Pants :: 5. Ideel Floral Print Pants :: 6. Michael Kors Leopard Pants :: 7. Mixed Print Flare Pants
Just call them ‘Prints Charming‘ 😉 A trend I am seeing all over the place this spring is printed pants. Palazzo pants, fit and flare and joggers are all over the place and I think it’s about time I snag a pair (wouldn’t they be perfect for my trip to LA?) I think these will be added to the ‘Must Get’ list!
Any who, I only own one pair of printed joggers (which I wore back in the fall with a crop top + a boyfriend blazer) and it has been a bit of a struggle to find flattering printed pants for every shape. You don’t want a tight fit that hugs every curve unless you are in tip-top shape (which I am definitely not haha) so a jogger fit or a fit and flare style is the way to go in my opinion!
Here are a few of my favorites (and they are all under $75)…chic yet affordable!

Mondays are made for…new spring outfit inspo. I hope everyone had a great weekend (I know I sure did!) and had a Happy Mother’s Day! I spent my weekend embracing the fabulous weather and beginning my search for perfect clothes for my upcoming trip to LA! It is quite challenging to find trendy, sexy yet cute and casual picks that are ideal for a little getaway…sooo safe to say my search rages on…
But on another note, today’s look is cute, casual and reminiscent of fall with the maroon hues mixed with plaid (a little throwback to when I wore colorful plaid in the fall months).
