Casual Columbus

As my Indiana trip has come to a close, I'm posting this blog from the airport as I await my flight back to Los Angeles.  While I love Los Angeles more than anything and consider it my home, there are things in Indiana that I really appreciate and are often hard to find in a big city like L.A.  One is a restaurant called Zaharakos, that has been in Columbus, Indiana since 1900.  Originally an ice cream parlor/soda fountain, it was restored in 2007, and is now considered a national historic landmark.  My sister and I used to love to go to Zaharakos as children, and this week, I got the opportunity to go back and see it in its restored condition.  While spending time around Columbus, I chose to dress casually, by wearing black skinny pants, an oversize sheer sweater, and a leopard scarf.  What do you guys think about my look?








Black Skinny Pants: Gap
Sweater: Gap
Tee: LnA
Bag: Chanel (M/L Classic Caviar Flap)
Shoes: Luxury Rebel
Leopard Skull Scarf: Alexander McQueen
Jewelry: Left hand chain (unknown); Right hand chain- Sequin; Flower ring- J. Crew

    1. Thank you so much, Samantha! My watch is made by Freelook and I purchased it on Amazon about a year ago. (I just did a google search and I think this model is no longer available!)
