Cool: Running to Target real quick after the night’s workout to purchase one very specific thing. Not Cool: Walking out with five things, three of which were things I would wear. Woops. I thought this might be an appropriate time to share some invaluable life lessons I’ve garnished over these many moons of shopping my undisciplined face off. Shopping Induced Life Lessons: 1) If it’s not quite what your’e looking for, don’t buy it. Even if it’s close. (otherwise you end up with five pairs of leopard flats in your closet, none of which are very comfortable, none of which are high quality, and none of which were quite what you were looking for.

Military Jacket & Fightin’ Words
That’s right – I got fightin’ words for you, California. You’ve been freaking freezing lately and I’m not the least bit cool with that. If it weren’t for this here military jacket I’d been freezing my kahonas right off!

NOT. COOL. Not cool California. You better shape up, cuz if you don’t think I’ll chuck this fiercely pointed heel in your general direction, think again. I’ll do it. So help me I will. Jacket: F.21 | Black Skinnies: H&M | Heels: Zara | Purse: Aldo | Cuff Bracelet: Apricot Lane Boutique | Rings: F.21 We had to try that a whole bunch to get it right. I’m…

Fo real. They’re comfy as death, high quality, and mostly you can wear them with basically anything I’ve decided. So there you have it. Turns out the Hunter Boots are all they’re cracked…
