LA/Madrid Summer 2012 OOTD recap

So its no surprise that last summer I went to Spain to visit Paula... its basically all I ever talk about because it was literally the best time of my entire life.  First Pau came to visit me in LA for about two weeks then we flew back to Madrid for about three weeks... I cannot stress how amazing of a time I had... Anyhow, I just wanted to recap some of my favorite OOTDs that we did almost everyday from our summer!

Above is from the day we had a super tribal print day.  I'm not 100% sure what came over us, but I'm pretty sure it was inspired by my newly purchased fanny-pack!  They were the perfect outfits for exploring Segovia and the palace grounds! My look: Tank- Bershka, Shorts- Levi's, Shoes- Vans c/o Pau, Cardigan- Free People, Sunnies- Zara, Fanny Pack- Hippies de Goya street market

Me and Pau took a little weekend (plus a few days) excursion to Barcelona to visit my friend Gemma and her family.  Of course, like any American girl raised in the 2000s, I was obsessed with the Cheetah Girls so we walked all of Las Ramblas!  My look: Dress- Free People, Tank- Brandy Melville, Bag- Coach, Shoes- ???

This is from when Paula was visiting my family in LA.  Obviously we went to Disneyland!  We definitely embraced some sportiness in spite of the ridiculous heat in OC!  (I totally stole that hat from my friend Arno who was there with us... Still wish I kept it!) My look: Tank- Brandy Melville, Shorts- Lucky Brand, Shoes- Urban Outfitters, Sunnies- Clothing Warehouse, Bag- DKNY, Hat- Arno's!

These outfits are from the first day I saw Pau in LA.... I had just come back from working at a camp and we were at a goodbye picnic for my family's foreign exchange students!  This was like the funnest day ever!  My look: Hat- traditional Austrian hat c/o Arno from Austria, Dress- Free People, Bag- handmade by my G-Grandma, Shoes- ???

My first night out on the town in Madrid!!! We illegally drank in the streets and went to my first night club!  Seriously such a great experience!  Viva Sangria! My look: Dress- ???, Necklace- BP Nordstrom, Shoes- Forever 21
