Trying to take full advantage of our summer in LA, my friends and I have been visiting a new beach every weekend. Two weeks back we went to the beautiful Santa Monica and had a blast!

I've discovered that when dressing for a full day out in California (from sun-up to sun-down), it can be hard to strike a comfortable balance between sweating profusely and shivering uncontrollably. I know - it's a strange concept at first, when you think California in the summertime, "shivering" isn't typically a verb that comes to mind. However, I have quickly learned that it is very much a reality once the sun goes down every night. I've found that wearing jeans and a tank is a reasonable solution when you know you will be outside for an extended period of time. Oh, and you definitely don't want to forget your jacket at home!
Hope everyone had a beautiful first day of summer. Here's to many more happy summer days to come!
Beautiful photos, looks so fun!! Love your smile!

Haha! It's definitely hard to find a balance! It tends to get really chilly at nights by the beach! If you visited the valley it's a different story...tends to stay warm at nights. Hope you're having a blast girl! Adorable outfit:)!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so much fun! I want to go to the beach super bad now. You look so cute, love that tank :)
