Hey Fashionistas,


I was on my way to a birthday party dinner with friends. We went to a restaurant at La Placita Olvera. Olvera street is in the oldest part of Downtown LA and quite a tourist attraction. You’ll find authentic Mexican craft shops and restaurants. We ended up eating at Casa La Golondrina Mexican Café and for desert we went to my favorite Churro place called Mr. Churro.

For this occasion I chose a white blouse with wide almost batman styled arms. It was really warm that day so I wanted to wear something that covered my shoulders but still felt fresh and comfortable.

I chose a crop top because it matches well with any high waist skirt or pants unless you desire to show off a little bit of your stomach which is not needed in such events. I paired the crop top with a black leather skirt. I wanted to feel casual but still be fashionable and beautiful.

Wedges are my “go-to” shoes when I want to wear something with a heel but I’m not sure if I’m sitting or standing at the party because heels can become uncomfortable over a long period of time of course it depends on the heel height and style. Wedges are the perfect solution for everyone who wants to wear heels but can’t walk on them or simply feel uncomfortable in them. Nowadays you’ll find wedges in every shape, color and form.

My accessories add the finishing touches to my style. I am wearing a statement necklace and a black clutch with a gold bow tie to give it a splash of who I am.

So ladies don’t be afraid of heels, there are always alternatives to those heels that make you feel like you are loosing sensation on your feet. In the end the most important thing is that you feel good because if you feel beautiful you will exert beauty.  

See you soon,
