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.

Vegas Withdrawals…

After a great weekend in Vegas, I am back to reality. How I wish I was able to go back. Even though I lost sleep and most likely I will need to do a detox because of all the alcohol consumed, I still want to go back. 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.

Happy...

Wednesday!

Finally the weather is cooling down and I can actually wear clothes I bought for winter. I know I will regret this when I go back to Chicago. But for now I am grateful that its cooler and I can wear warm clothes. Hahaha. 

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!

Combining...

my two loves: Fashion and Sports!

Some of you might know that I love sports! I am the type of girl who screams, cheers and yells like a guy at a bar when his team is playing. I am not like those girls who hate sports or only like it because of their significant other. I LOVE Sports! I love football, baseball, hockey, and basketball. I even have my “Jersey Sundays” which means, I wear one of my favorite team’s jersey or shirt and I put my hair in a bun and out the door! Kind of like how I am wearing it here in these pictures. But don’t think I do this all the time. Sometimes, I just lay around my home with a big jersey on and snack on junk food and drink beer.

Many believe that sports gear is not fashionable at all. And sure, they might not be nicest and fashion forward but there are ways to make it look cute. But you have to admit, sports gear got a lot better through out the years especially for women!

I am definitely going to do more post like this because I want to show and maybe inspire those girls who do like to wear sports gear how to make them look a lot more girly and fashionable than just wearing it plain.

Today I paired my Chicago Bears shirt from Victoria Secret Pink Collection with a fur vest, jeans and some booties. Weather is definitely getting chillier so I am now able to wear my fur items. How exciting! Like I said before, I will post more of these posts in the future. If you do like sports, let me know how you combine your sports gear with fashion.

Hope you are enjoying your day!

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! :)
