The lost..

Blog post.

So as I was uploading new blog pictures, I noticed that there was some pictures of an outfit I wore a couple of weeks ago that I never posted. How could I forget about posting pictures and blogging about my outfit?

Casual Friday...

Friday is already here and I’m so excited because I can sleep in this weekend. Hahaha. I remember when Friday meant the beginning of a crazy weekend filled with parties and alcoholic drinks. Now it means I can stay in, watch some Netflix and catch up on all my shows recorded on my DVR. My life has changed completely, that’s for sure!

I am...

Back!

It’s been a very long time since I last blogged especially blogging about my outfits. I have truly missed it. Life has been hectic as usual and I had other priorities to take care of. But I am back! J

Before the hair change…

So it’s been a while since I’ve updated this blog. I know I continue on apologizing for the lack of updates but with a full time job, you lose track of everything else.

I was able to take some shots before dying my hair a lighter color. Yes, after 8 years of not dying my hair, I randomly decided I needed a change and just went for it and dyed my hair a much lighter color.

Leather Kind of Day...

Today I decided to wear my faux leather skirt I bought from H&M. Usually I am very picky about faux leather and I hardly buy it. Many of the times faux leather looks really cheap and that’s one of the reasons why I tend to just buy the real leather. But when I saw this skirt at H&M, I thought it was adorable and the leather didn’t look so cheap.

Maybe a pop of color…

Will brighten your day.

So for the past two days its been raining like crazy here in LA. It doesn’t rain all year and when it rains, it pours for days. As much as I know we need the rain, I am over it. It’s ruining my Christmas lights decorating time. Hahaha.

The Never Ending...

Romper love!

As you have noticed, lately I’ve been wearing a lot of rompers. I know I have said this many times but I absolutely LOVE them!!!!

If you are anywhere in Southern California, you have been dealing with this crazy heat wave. I live next to the beach and even at the beach it’s been in the high 90’s. There’s this dry warm wind, the ocean water is warm, and you take a shower and feel icky right after, it’s horrible! But at night, there is that beach breeze and makes you cold. This weather is so bipolar it makes it difficult to figure out what to wear. You must find something that keeps you cool during the day but warm during night. And that’s why I run to my rompers!

Bare legs and boots...

Yes, I am currently in LA. And unlike other cities, LA has been feeling like summer instead of spring. But lately the temperatures have been going down which makes it a perfect time to wear knee high boots with shorts and dresses. 

White on White...

Sometimes it’s the best combination for a spring outfit.

We have all heard the old fashion rule, “don’t wear white after labor day and before memorial day”. That fashion rule is so outdated and I am a believer that people should be allowed to wear what they want whenever they want.

Stripes and…

Denim!

Happy Thursday!

We are closer to the weekend and I am super excited because that means I am closer to enjoying Opening Day at Dodgers Stadium! But first I must get through Thursday before the real fun starts…

Flower Power...

Well guess who is back?

After a long hiatus, I am back! I want to apologize for the lack of post but the month of March was a really hard one for me.  I went through some hard personal issues but don’t worry, all is now well!

Writer's Block...

 Although I might not write a lot on this blog, I am constantly writing. I have notepads with me all the time, in my handbags, in my cars, at my desk etc. I am a writer. I write about everything, especially what I am currently feeling. That is my way of coping with things and my way of expressing myself. But currently I am having a writer’s dilemma, known as writer’s block.

Stepford Wife...

You know those moments when you wear something and immediately feel like a character? Well I am currently having one of those moments by feeling like a Stepford wife with this skirt. Don’t get me wrong, I love the skirt but I am far from a Stepford wife. I am not even married or close to marriage to begin {insert sentimental reaction here, lol} but this skirt really makes me feel like one. 

It's Friday...

“I’m in love. Saturday wait. And Sunday always comes too late. But Friday never hesitate…” Definitely one of my favorite songs by The Cure. I was lucky enough to see them play this song live at Lollapalooza last year.

Hello Monday...

Weekend...

Withdrawals...

It’s Monday and I am having weekend withdrawals. I want to go back. Why can’t we have a longer weekend? Why must all good things end so quickly? Hahaha.

Just a...

 Casual Day.

Incase you didn’t know (because trust me, it happens a lot to me especially when I travel and lose track of everything but work) today is FRIDAY!  We have officially made it through our first full week of work and school of 2014. Now lets reward ourselves by some drinks over the weekend. Hahaha.

Winter in...

LA!

As the Midwest and the Northeast gets hit really hard with a winter storm, it’s been beautiful here in LA.

As you know, I was in Chicago in December and it was so brutal. I am so thankful to be in LA right now. It’s been above 75 degrees. To my readers who live in cold cities, I am sorry. I am not trying to rub it in… Ok, maybe a little! Hahaha. Don’t worry I will soon be back to cold weather. I will feel your pain.

Hello...

2014!

I want to start off by saying Happy New Years!! I wish you the best in everything and you have a healthy year! Also, I hope you are not too hungover from that champagne you had last night. Hahaha.

Since it’s a new year, I have made new goals. I will not discuss all my goals but one goal I will tell you is that I want to update this blog more often. It’s very hard at times to keep up because I work full-time and also I travel a lot. But my goal is update at least three times a week.  So lets see how this goes!

The garment...

That caused a big scene at work.

When I bought this skirt last year from ASOS, I realized I had to get it tailored. The skirt was just so long and being 5’1 I tend to have this problem a lot. Finally after a year I found someone that specializes in leather and I was able to get it tailored for my height. I was so excited to wear it! Finally, I decided to wear it and I never knew a piece of garment would cause so much commotion at work. I mean, sure it’s a leather skirt but it’s not showing much other than my knees. It’s not a Miley Cyrus VMA’s outfit.

I decided to pair it with my favorite jean shirt. I love pairing leather with jean, I find it very now. I went to work thinking and feeling great. Until I had someone tell me, “I don’t think your skirt is very appropriate for work.” At that moment, I said to myself, “WHAT? What are you talking about, its just a leather skirt, I am not wearing short shorts!”

I rarely talk about my job or the people working there, but one thing I will say is that many dress like slobs. They wear pajamas to work!!! So for this person to say that made me get sassy and I turned around and said, “Well I don’t think dressing like a slob is appropriate for work either!” and I walked away.

Don’t worry, I didn’t go home and change. Why should I? I see nothing wrong with the outfit. I will continue on wearing this skirt to work because I can. Regardless of what anyone says…

And that’s sassy Lisa, y’all! Hahaha. Just wanted to share my little leather skirt story with you all. Hope you are all having a great week. Remember: wear what you want, just as long as you keep it classy! :)

Xo,

Lisa
