WINTER BREAK SNIPS - LA


california has all {practically all} of my favorite things: sunshine, mountains, beach, real mexican food, my sister, downtown, beautiful flowers and so much more.  if you aren't from california, take it from someone who moved away.... its definitely the best place, i don't regret my decision to leave, but it does make me sad that i'm not there right now!!

anyways, this is a photo journal of my trip home for break.  i was in los angeles for six weeks and these are so pieces of my stay at home.

in order from top to bottom:
my sister & the 3rd street promenade at santa monica beach
my great aunts old book that i use to press all the flowers i collect of my hikes {the yellow ones smell the best}
my last shot of downtown on my way to the airport, i always regret not spending more time getting lost in the downtown area
a beautiful rock on a drive i took up to the mountains
view from the ski lift at mammoth mountain, barely any snow
street art found downtown
pier in ventura
i visited my sister at school in santa barbara, we went to the beach
la super rica {best mexican food} in santa barbara
my lovely little windowsill



i hope everyone had a lovely thanksgiving/christmas/new year!

SUNDAY FUNDAY - LA

Follow my blog with Bloglovin


so one my dearest friends from back home, Austin, and i decided that since we were just about the only people home from school/life for the break (everyone got home weeks later) we would go on an adventure then to an evening church service at mosaic hollywood {if you're from the area and looking for a good, hip church then i would recommend; i'd go again!}.  our day started with lunch then adventuring began!  we went to the observatory where we saw a patch of trees amongst the city and decided to see what it was.... and our result?  this super cool museum!  it was a great day with a great pal!

BE INSPIRED BY SASHA PIVOVAROVA




sasha has always been my absolute favorite model, since i'm not sure when but i'm obsessed.  i love back stories and i think hers is absolutely wonderful.  i think out of all of the models in the fashion industry she is the most unique and authentic.  from her personal life, to her art, to her modeling sasha doesn't stress perfection and embraces things how they are which i think is a pretty perfect way to look at things.  watch this video presented by free people and be inspired by sasha like i am!

also, i'm back in savannah.   winter quarter just started and its twenty-eight degrees today... basically, this little californian girl is cuddled up in bed trying to stay as warm as possible and trying not to think about how much she misses the eighty degree weather she experienced at home in LA.   anyways, i have a bunch of things i have to put up on the blog: winter break activities, my final project from last quarter and a bunch more.  i'm excited about this!

love you all! stay warm!!!!!
