We went to California, again. It is probably my favorite place in the whole world. We went to Disneyland (woot woot!!) and I just bought a GoPro, so it was fun taking pictures with it. I love that camera!!! It really does take amazing pictures, but is small so you don't have to heave around a huge camera to get the same picture quality.
It's not a trip to California with out a drive down to the beach!!! This time we checked out La Jolla and San Diego area. I'm in love!! We usually try more northern beaches, but I really liked this area. We hiked around Torrey Pines State Park. It's a beautiful hike above La Jolla beaches. Definitely worth having to exercise. Plus, all of my family living in California was able to come!!
We also went to Seal Beach in La Jolla. I think this beach might have been my favorite part of the vacation. It's this cove that they created for children to be able to swim in so there isn't as many waves, but I guess the seals just took over and live there now. You can get pretty close to them, and they are there year round. I love animals, so that was a special thing for me to see.
It was a great end to a great vacay. On to my outfit of the day!! (excuse my puppy in some of these pictures)
High-Low Hemmed Dress - Nordstrom, $35.99
Suede wedges - Nordstrom, $45 (so comfy!!)
Silver Bracelets - Alex and Ani, free (gift from college roommate)
Earrings - Nordstrom, Wedding gift from my mom (I wore them in my wedding)
My outfit total? $80.99 (yikes, my outfit totals have been expensive lately!) I guess I need to start shopping a little more budget friendly.
My tip of the day? Be comfortable in what you are wearing! Yes, it is fun to try that daring new trend. But if you don't really like how it looks or it just doesn't feel good, chances are you'll buy an article of clothing and never wear it again. Which is a waste of money!!!! This outfit is super comfortable and fits to my body (even when I'm bloated or have gained a couple of pounds, thanks to the draw string waist). I see this all the time when people try the high waisted shorts or crop tops (which I love) but if you don't have the confidence (or buy the wrong size) it just looks like a mess. So, when you go to buy something trendy; stop and picture yourself actually wearing it in a real life situation (not a Lil' Wayne music video).
Thanks for reading, and have a great day!!!
