Koa


 


A few weeks ago I was contacted by the lovely people at Altin Place, whom offered to send me one of their gorgeous Koa Wood rings. I chose this titanium offset one, and boy, is it gorgeous. Koa wood comes specifically from Hawaii and the color is just beautiful against the titanium. 
The awesome thing about these rings is that they come with a lifetime guarantee, so if the wood ever gets damaged or comes loose, they will get it replaced. This ring has no become one of my daily wears. However, I must say that it makes want to visit Hawaii more than ever, haha.
I must thank Alex, and everyone else at Altin Place, for providing me with such a pleasant experience and great customer service. Definitely check them out if you're in the market for a one of kind piece! They've got bangles and earrings as well made with Koa wood. 

Hope you all enjoy your weekend, and be on the look out for a new outfit post quite soon.

Flashback Friday: Millerton Lake




Skirt; Urban Outfitters | Crop top; The Laundry Room | Shoes; Designer Shoe Warehouse | Socks; Target

These photos were taken by one of my closest friends, Mariaya Tallett, before she moved back home to Washington about a year ago. This was such a fun day. We went out to Millerton Lake for these shots. The weather was perfect. Cloudy and overcast, yet not cold. I wish we got more of this kind of weather here in California. And man, Mariaya, I miss you so much!!
I always love shooting by the water. Give me dark, cloudy skies and a body of water and I will be more content than ever. Unfortunately, California isn't having much of a winter. It's times like these that make me want to join Mariaya up in Washington...

I hope you all are doing well!

Tamerlane


Photo by Amanda Ramirez

So my friends in Tamerlane released their first single yesterday, called "Truth&Lies." Anyone recognize that tattoo there? Yeah, that's me. Amanda had asked me if I'd be willing to model for the single artwork, and of course, I couldn't say no! Not gonna lie, it's pretty weird to see, but really cool. Anyway, you can check out their single here!

Surreal

One of my close friends, Yezmene, hit me up today wanting to do a surrealist shoot, and these are the results. I really like how these came out. So whimsical. These shoes have not been off my feet since they came in. I absolutely ADORE them, and they have definitely take over the title of favorite shoes in my closet. The weather today was pretty gorgeous, cloudy and overcast, but not cold. A slight chill in the air, but the best kind.
Life's been pretty... Hm. Interesting, I guess? I'm kind of in a weird point. Just rolling with the punches I suppose. How have you all been?
