Latin Lingo

Before my flight took off, I had some time to kill out in Long Beach...so I hit up their local mall and came across this outrageous "Latin Lingo Clothing" store! Umm...kind of weird that there's a market for this stuff. lol What person would actually wear these shirts? haha Thought it was funny...xo, B

Seriously, who would wear a t-shirt that says "The Beaters"?!

Bye Bye Cali

Back to the grind, I'm off to NYC...I'll miss you California, your 70 degree weather, your amazing Mexican eats, shopping and most of all my family! But, I do get to see my BF, friends and stop eating massive amounts of food! lol...it's been real...xo, B

Gaga's Brills

At first when I got my Elle mag in the mail, I was totally disappointed that I got the lame Britney cover...but thankfully Gaga made up for it in the inside! Love her...and of course she was brills in all her shots...bitch is a performer, and a great one at that! xo, B

Love the couture model pose! lol

Grandma's Cool Shoes

After going through more photos, I found a picture of my grandma's wedges she always wore, that I always wanted to wear when I was a kid...and still do! They looked so comfy, and I would totally rock them today...now I only have to find a pair. The hunt is on...at least I have a few months to search before it gets warm again. lol xo, B

YSL Ring Bling

Freaking gorgeous cool YSL arty rings! Loves it, B

One More Time

I decided to go discount shopping one last time...Loehmanns wasn't so much fun, but I did find this fun Donna Karen fur and laser cut leather concoction for my mom to try on. Of course she had to pose like she was a bear on attack...but it was an awesome coat...if not for the $1,400 price tag, originally priced at $4,000! It reminds me of something Kate Moss wore a few years back. But, I did pick up a couple tops from Nordstrom Rack, that were kind of cool and totally different from each other. The pink Rebel Yell terry cloth top will be great with cutoffs and LV espadrilles in the summer...and the Lauren by Ralph Lauren top is so cute and preppy, it'll be great now in the winter with my new brown suede boots! I'll miss the selection at the discount stores when I go back to NYC. The stores in California are like an untapped resource for my NYC style...the OC girls are dressing for a different world. I love them both...but NYC is where my heart is. xo, B

Stolen

I remembered as a child playing with this massive silver cuff of my mom's, and when I came back this trip, I made sure it was coming back with me to NYC. Obvi this piece won't be worn until the summer time...but it's so hippie chic and bad ass it will be a great accessory with all my whimsy dresses. And no, I don't intend to shine it up...I love my stuff tarnished and used, a sign of love. And of course, when I put it on...it isn't quite as big as I remembered, but it will do. xo, B
