Sweet Home California

Sweet Home California

I found these embroidered vintage jeans in the back of my mom's closet, so naturally, I stole them.

After spending three weeks in the freezing cold winter of North-Western Europe, it was actually a miracle coming back to sunny Southern California. Granted the first couple weeks of late January were filled with large amounts of rainfall, but of course after the rain, comes a rainbow.

If you learned anything from street fashion (or IG fashion) from 2016, you know that the 90s are in. Chokers, mom jeans, Calvin Klein, and pretty much anything Brand Melville seemed to consist of nearly every girl's go to Instagram-worthy outfit. After spending a large amount of winter vacation in 5 pounds of coats, scarves, boots, and beanies, it was a relief to wear bralettes and open-toed shoes again. I honestly do not know how half of those bloggers in Paris and London go running around shooting in crop tops and fishnets (I'm looking at you Kristina and Chiara). No matter how much my Polish friend and I tried to coordinate, we were quite literally too frozen to even pretend to look cute in our photos (Europe entry coming soon... See #traveldiarieswithkk). 

So for now, I hope you enjoy these very California-themed photos of me that are unphotoshoped, but filtered for aesthetics. LMK which one is your fave!
