Happy St. Patrick’s Day all!  Hope you all were able to enjoy some green beer, green dessert, green something this weekend.  I had such a great time this past week in California, for work, visiting family and for play.  I soaked in the sun, did a lot of shopping, met some LA bloggers, spent quality time with family, but missed Austin SOO SOO much!

I wore this outfit while shopping at South Coast Plaza with my childhood friend, who just happened to start a blog with her friend called Life By Appointment!  While shopping, I got to hold my dream Chloe bag, a staple black Balenciaga bag that I want, and I tried on Louboutins.  It was fun to play with all of these designer handbags and shoes for an afternoon.  :)   But the best part of the afternoon was forcing my friend to take outfit pictures in public.  ;)   Showing her that as a fashion blogger,  you’ve just gotta get over the fear of people walking by and looking at you funny, or roll with the punches when others want to take pictures with you too, LOL!

And here she is, in her super cute outfit.  We both got the printed pants memo for the day.  If you haven’t checked out her blog before, go leave her some love.  Her and her friend blog about ridiculously cute outfits, DIYs, recipes and more!

    Best green outfit! So pretty! I love the pattern on those pants. I laughed at what you said about your friend taking photos of you in public. It’s just something you have to get used to, I guess! She looks super cute also – I will have to go check out her blog!

    Happy St. Patty’s Day Sandy!!
