So the other day I went to La Jolla to go shopping and have a quick bite to eat at my favorite restaurant, The Cottage. Their food is to die for, and has such an adorable atmosphere. Luckily it was a beautiful day, aside from the previously gloomy days. I was finally able to wear a summery outfit, which was exciting.

I purchased my black body con dress from H&M a few years back, but the good news is black dresses like this are almost a staple in so many stores now. I got my white, linen, midi tank top dress from Forever 21, for really cheap. I wore a simple necklace and a dainty gold bracelet. I wanted to keep the jewelry very simple. I love these shoes, and probably wear them a little too often, but hey who’s counting. I bought them at Cathy Jean for an affordable price as well.

I was in love with these steps and thought they were so unique. That is why I just had to take photos here. Lately I have been really infatuated with patterns, and the way things aesthetically look together. I am all about what pleases the eye at the moment, and the patterns on these steps were so beautiful to me. I hope you all had a wonderful day.

Cheers! Casidie
