CALIFORNICATION

Posted by on








WEARING: Vintage Jacket, American apparel Top and Cyclist Shorts, H&M Bag

I am now back from Cali and what an amazing trip that was! I went between LA and New Port Beach (Orange County). I was so busy with everything that I didn't have time to take many pictures. Bare with me though, I did get one outfit post in a back alley, and a few Instragrams.

I ate a lot, it was like I was Italian or something, all I craved was pasta and wine and then some more wine. I shopped a bit (not as much as I wanted to, but you know my Visa card can only take so much) I am sure you all can relate to that. I found this bomber jacket in a vintage store and I went crazy when I saw it, I love the print and obviously the colour. Also I must warn you, you will be seeing me wearing these cyclist shorts from American Apparel a lot, I am currently obsessing over them, they rock!I didn't take that many pictures with my iPhone, but here are my favs. Follow me on Instragram: melissaaraujo07
