inspo
"MO&Co. heads for a spring awakening with it’s newest collection, showcasing warm weather versions of wardrobe staples on the back of fashion’s queen of cool, Freja Beha. The latest campaign is all about a borrowed from the boys sensibility with logo t-shirts, leather jackets and combat boots mixed with lace and floral patterns for a touch of femininity. Karim Sadli shoots the black and white images which captures the campaign’s message perfectly." (models.com) Could not have said it better myself. I could seriously have this video projected onto my bedroom wall playing continuously for the next three months, and the pictures?! Might already be hanging above my desk. Let's just say I'll be pulling major inspo from this campaign for the next, oh I don't know, ten years or so.
Sara Donaldson = my ultimate supreme girl crush. I found one of her blog pics on tumblr and spent an incredible amount of time trying to find the OG source. Totally worth it. Clean neutrals, to die for photography, and drool worthy minimalist edits: Sara gives basics hella cool-girl street cred on her site. Now if only she were looking for a closet-raiding roomie...

Summer is quickly racing by. Did you do everything you wanted? Learn to skateboard, stay up late, don't brush your hair, roll around in the sand, jump on beds, go on adventures, laugh, eat ice pops and do what makes you happy. Remember a few months back when you said "I can't till summer to *insert something fun here*?" Well go do it. Here's what is inspiring the rest of my summer days...all sunshine, sneakers and not a care in the world.
Blue, white, denim and my favorite hat?. My outfits are just getting crazier and crazier! Switched up my usual "blue jeans-white shirt" combo by wearing blue on top and white on the bottom (see I told you I was getting cray.) Paired my trusty vintage denim shirt with a brand spankin' new pair of cream Koral skinnies for a summery spin on my go-to. Although I never really considered myself a white jeans-wearing girl, these skinnies are kinda the bomb. Super stretchy, comfy as f*** and have the ability to go with everything from a basic tee and vans to a leather jacket and man-killer stilettos. I'm definitely going to have fun experimenting with these jeans.
Nothing better than perfectly placed pockets
These jeans make me wanna get super cray and
wear white on white on white...coming soon???

Kinda really loved my last athletic inspired look, "sporty spice," that I pulled out the jeans and nikes yet again. This time I paired my Cheap Monday skinnies with one of my favorite sweaters from Brandy Melville. So I'll admit I felt a little hood wearing a snap back...but realized turning it backwards makes it all kinds of cool girl instead of Compton homie, ya feel me?

The white tank top is a wardrobe staple and gets extra playtime when the summer rolls around. Instead of pairing it with your usual cutoffs, skirt, jeans, whatever...here are three ideas for mixing it up.
1. White Tank + Linen Shorties + Sneakers
The muscle tank gets the sporty spice attention it deserves when paired with these linen Rag & Bone shorts (leather version of these babies here.) Worn with gym barbie nike's this one is perfect for a post soulcycle lunch date or an Observatory hike.
2. White Tank + Denim Pencil Skirt + Leather Boots
Did you think I was going to write about a white tank top without denim?? A tank with a slight crop fit looks rad paired with a high waisted light wash denim pencil skirt. A pair of classic engineer boots keep the girly-ness in check.
3. White Tank + White Pants + Strappy Heels
The summer equivalent of my go-to black on black would obviously be white on white. Looks so fresh and so clean. Bonus: makes even the slightest hint of a tan pop like you just got back from a week long Mediterranean escapade (yes, please.) This look even works for a night out when you add a generous amount of dry shampoo and eyeliner.
All of these look killer paired with a denim jacket, huge cat eye sunnies, a bottle of coconut water and tons of bronzer. (Kidding about the bronzer. Don't do that.)
Is it really almost summer? Wasn't Christmas just a couple weeks ago? Crazy how time flies when you're busy busy busy (and my birthday's already tomorrow, what?!) In case you aren't a regular reader, (come on...I mean really) I'm completely denim obsessed. I wear a Canadian tuxedo like it's my job. Well...you know what I mean. The best denim for hot weather is worn thin and light washed. I found this perfect vintage denim shirt at Wasteland in Santa Monica (15 bucks!) and these amazeballs cut offs at the Fairfax Sunday flea market, which I proudly haggled my butt off for. I mean 55 for a pair of cutoffs? I don't think so. The bandeau bikini top I'm wearing under the shirt (not pictured) makes this outfit perfect for a summer day spent bike riding, lunching and squeezing in a few rays on the way...and also lets me get away with minimal button usage, hehe.
