Outfit #1

Mid length skirt paired with thigh high boots.

Also, What colors go with snakeskin boots?

You don’t always have to wear black or white with snakeskin.

You can explore color with snakeskin. However, 1) Stick to one color and wear it head-to-toe, and 2) Try earth tones like dark green, dark camel, cream, or chamoisee.

Earth tones you can pair with snakeskin:

Outfit #4

Pair cargo pants with snakeskin boots. Again, you can stick with any earth tone for cargo or jean.

Many times people assume you can only wear skinny jeans or straight legged pant with thigh highs, but try mixing it up with cargos! Just keep the rest of the outfit simple.

Outfit #5

Classic flowy black skirt with thigh highs.

In order to keep your look classy, especially with thigh high snakeskin boots, try pairing your flowy skirt with a long sleeved top. In this case, a turtleneck :)

Where did I shop for these over the knee snakeskin boots? I actually found these in a small boutique on Melrose Ave. They are not name brand or designer, but the quality has still held up well.

As long as you are comfortable and can walk easily!.. and the shape and material are on point, go for it.

How-To Maintain the Shapes of Your Purses and Boots with this Easy Easy Hack!

This is so easy!

Have you ever wondered what to do with old clothing that is too destroyed to donate or give away? I feel guilty about throwing these types of clothes away since they will most likely end up in landfill. Also, it can be another thing on your list of things-to-do i.e.: ordering bubble wrap or stuffing paper for filling your leather handbags and boots….

However, did you realize you can just cut up old clothing (that are too destroyed and stained to giveaway) and use THOSE instead? Old stained or torn clothes work perfectly to fill boots, purses, or any other item of clothing or accessory that needs its shape maintained while stored away in your closet.

Day in the Life in L.A.: One Day/One Night in Los Angeles

Welcome to my blog post on suggestions of things to do if you have only one day in Los Angeles with family! The feel we were going for was relaxing, beautiful, stimulating, yet chic. #dayinthelife #dayinthelifeLA

Dukes, Malibu

Welcome to my blog post on suggestions of things to do if you have one day in Los Angeles! My grandmother and mom visited, so the feel we were going for was relaxing, beautiful, stimulating, yet chic. Below are the 3 places we went to for one beautiful day in L.A. Also, scroll down for the pics!

LA in-a-day itinerary:

—> The 3 Places: Duke’s Malibu, the Getty Villa, and the Beverly Hilton.

  1. Lunch at Duke’s Malibu in Malibu, overlooking the ocean.

    Duke’s restaurant is right beside the ocean and right off the PCH highway. The booths right next to the window have beautiful views of the waves, and sometimes you can see dolphins. Duke’s has brunch on Sunday’s, outside seating, and a bar. It’s a great restaurant for families as well as friends. I ordered a cold brew coffee in a glass bottle and a vegetarian burger :) I loved it. Check out Duke’s in Malibu website here. Duke’s is also close by the Getty Villa, where we went after lunch.

  2. Museum day at The Getty Villa in Pacific Palisades.

    Next, we went to The Getty Villa. The Getty Villa is a beautiful museum in itself and features ancient Greek and Roman art. It’s located in the Pacific Palisades overlooking the ocean. It is perfect for spending a day with friends or with family. The museum is free, but you need to make a reservation beforehand. Check out the Getty Villa website here.

  3. Check-in at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills.

    After our day spent in Malbu at Duke’s and the Getty Villa, we headed for check-in at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, which is about an hour drive away from Malibu. The Beverly Hilton is known for its history in Hollywood, and hosts annual Grammy’s parties and the Golden Globes, and more. The Beverly Hilton has a restaurant by the pool, a bar, a modern spa with cryotherapy chambers, a beautiful pool, event spaces, and the rooms have beautiful views of Los Angeles. Check out the Beverly Hilton Hotel website here.

  4. Dinner at the Beverly Hilton outside by the pool.

    Since the restaurant at the Beverly Hilton is already chic and fun, we had dinner outside by the pool. The food is amazing. I ordered a vegetarian pizza and had a velvet chocolate dessert. Sitting outside at the Beverly Hilton is also so relaxing, they have a fun old fashioned iconic bar that’s outside by the pool. The hotel gave me a to-go box for my pizza, which is super cute. Scroll all the way down for a pic of the pizza box <3

  5. Breakfast at the Beverly Hilton outside by the pool.

    In the morning, we had breakfast by the pool of the Beverly Hilton again, since it’s so nice to sit outside there by the palm trees and pool and we were also looking for some relaxation to our one day Los Angeles trip. The Beverly Hilton provides enough fun to stay there and enjoy anyway. However, for the last part of the day for your one day/one night in LA and want to try somewhere different for breakfast, the Beverly Hilton is located near tons of restaurants in downtown Beverly Hills by Rodeo. It’s walking distance from the hotel if you like to take a half-mile walk, or, it is a very short drive.

  6. The end of a relaxing, beautiful, stimulating yet chic stay of one day /one-night stay in Los Angeles!
