Some days, I just enjoy dressing down, and doing simple things, like riding my bike around Los Angeles. My husband and I often pack our bikes up and head to the beach where the views are nice and bike riders are everywhere. However, sometimes it's just nice to ride around Ventura Boulevard (near where we live), which means that we don't have to transport our bikes, and we still get great views. There are always people on Ventura Blvd, plenty of cute dogs to stop and pet, and lots of cute boutiques. For my casual bike ride, I chose to wear a pair of cut-off denim shorts, and an oversize colorful sweater. I also wore really bright Hello Kitty accessories (you guys know I'm a fan at this point...) to top off my look. What do you guys think of my pairing?
(I had to add this last photo because my husband snapped it thinking he was funny- I had to walk my bike down this hill because it was too steep for me, although I know it doesn't look it in the photo!)
Shirt: Tokyo find
Tank: Forever 21
Shorts: True Religion cut offs
Jewelry: Tarina Tarantino Pink Head Collection (these pieces sold out, but similar styles here)
aw hello kitty!! these are just adorable :) xx
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteThe shoes are so extremely cute :P. They match the bycicle haha
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! Gotta love the HK shoes! :)
Deleteyou look so sweet and you have such a great bike :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! Of course, I wanted a pink bike but all the bikes I looked at were really expensive, so my husband bought me an old beach cruiser off craigslist for $60 and spray painted it pink! It's a great way to get a bike the color you want, and I get compliments all the time! :)
DeleteOMG ALLISON!!!! Seriously, why don't we live closer to each other, we could borrow each other's kitty accessories! I almost just died seeing these pictures!!!!

haha! I know! I would love to share things with you, Yi-chia! You would die if you saw all the HK stuff in our home! Good thing that my husband is ok with it because it is HK galore! lol.
