cream + olive

okay, let’s get real. i haven’t shopped at Abercrombie & Fitch since… college. which was (way) more than a decade ago. lately, i’ve been seeing a lot of bloggers wear it so i had to see what’s up for myself. during black friday they had a 50% sitewide deal so i jumped on that train. GOSH, i wasn’t disappointed. in fact, i actually ended up keeping most things which i wasn’t expecting. everything fit really well, it wasn’t super branded as it used to be and they have petite sizing!!! finally a satin skirt i didn’t have to go get hemmed!! ain’t nobody got time for that. this entire outfit is from there and it’s super affordable during a promo. while i actually love these satin skirts with sneaks, i amped it up with some nude pumps and love how it turned out! and let’s give it up for the cream + olive combo shall we?! (insert silent applause :D).

side ramblings: my birthday… WAS EPIC AS HELL. the past four days were everything and more. i spent it with people i care about and was pleasantly surprised at how much i enjoyed myself. 35 is a milestone and deep down to the core of myself… i have such a great feeling about this one. first, it was on friday the 13th during the energies of the last full moon of 2019. second, it’s on the cusp of a new decade!! i went all out. i kicked things off with some #birthdaynails at @embellish_nails then a facial & massage at my go-to spa @hiatusspa. my blogger gals joined me for a delish dinner at @eatnorthitalia followed by porron shenanigans at @kalimotxoatx. my family and i ate at @salttraderscc & did an escape room @mazeroomsaustin. we manged to escape with four mins to spare!! we’ve done all the rooms there and the shed was their newest addition, we were actually chained to the walls :D haha. i dropped by to support my girl Jane // @atasteofkoko on her new book launch! i had another bday lunch at @loroaustin with my old childhood friends. the weather was beautiful. i mean gosh, life at 35 is SO DANG GOOD. i feel it in my (old) bones. (or is it arthritis. haha). listen 2020, i’m coming for ya. #cantstopwontstop
