For Christmas this year, we drew names and each have a 100 dollar budget for the presents. I lucked out and chose my husband. But on the other hand, he can be a challenge to buy for. He asked for clothes which normally I'd be excited about, but he has fine taste. One of his favorite blazers he bought for 600 dollars. Ugh. Unsure about how to proceed I connected with Chris' friend Leslie Andrew Ridings who has exquisite fashion sense. We went to H & M and Forever 21 at the Americana in Glendale and came out with 2 pairs of pants, a blue blazer, two t-shirts, a button down shirt, a sweater and a jacket. Not bad - on average each piece cost $16.85...yeah we went over budget, but for eight fashionable, versatile new items that will easily mix and match in his closet- we came out on top!
While we were perusing H&M I plopped this amazing hat on my head. Leslie said I had to buy it...so I did. The striped, navy dress I have on has the most amazing lace collar- it's by YA Los Angeles. I feel super girly yet sexy in it because it hugs my body just right. My brown leather boots are from Dublin, Ireland- I got them because it was raining when we visited and all I had were a pair of flats- they've served me well. P.S. It was 84 degrees today hence the bare legs. Jealous?
