Happy belated 4th of July!! I hope you all enjoyed tanning at the beach, BBQing, or just relaxing and watching the fireworks with friends and fam. My day off was very relaxing and MUCH needed! I watched the movie, “Ted” with my boyfriend, it was hilarious! Definitely a must-see this summer. I’m so glad we were able to get a mini-break this week as I am currently swamped prepping and styling for a huge Back to School photo-shoot next week! It’s definitely a lot of work and prepping but I know that the end result of all my hard work will be worth it. Just gotta keep pushing through til the end right??
Today’s outfit is one of my favorites! Clearly you can tell how much I lovee these leopard MINKPINK shorts! I decided to play up colorblocking again with yellow & green! It was so much fun to wear this look and it was a great way to make a statement.
Hope everyone has a great day!

This past Thursday was not a normal day, I styled all the mannequins at Nordstrom Rack!! The managers wanted me to style the mannequins with the latest Summer trends and though it was pretty stressful and overwhelming at first, I tackled this new opportunity head on and had the most fulfilling time doing so. It was such a rewarding experience and I am so proud to share this experience with my wonderful readers. Take a peek at the behind the scenes & results from my day of styling the mannequins! Make sure to follow Nordstrom Rack Mission Valley @MValley_Rack!
I have to make a special shout out to my amazing assistant, photographer, videographer, & boyfriend! <3 
Thank you so much for reading!

This past Sunday I took a mini roadtrip to beautiful Laguna Beach with my dear friend and talented makeup artist, KC. I was especially excited/nervous/anxious/giddy that day because I was working with Stephanie Williams. Her photography style is very soft, feminine, and captivating. I have admired her work ever since I saw it on ShopRuche.com and fell in love. It truly was an honor working with such a talented and creative team!
I styled a very whimsical-inspired editorial, filled with lace, sequins, beaded details, and flowy pieces. I loved mixing all the different textures together, and playing with layering. Natalie was such a trooper during this crazy shoot (it was really cloudy and windy that day) especially for that last shot in the water!! I had the best time and these teaser pictures made it so worthwhile. <3

Earlier today, as I mentioned in the previous post, I drove up to LA to style an amazing photo shoot for Meredith Bruner! Lucky for us, we were able to do the photo shoot in a (REALLY) spacious studio at Milk Studios. The models were so much fun and they had great energy throughout the shoot. I styled about 6 looks for the girl and guy, all J. Crew inspired! I wanted to play with different color combinations and textures for this shoot, and I think it turned out great! Today’s shoot was such a rewarding experience and I’m so happy to work with such talented people.
Here are some fun behind the scenes pictures from today’s awesome shoot! Be sure to check back to see the edited pictures.
