Hannah and the Leopard.




I love how this picture came out, such a cliched pose of 'I'm fabulous.' Except not posed at all, taken while A was trying to get her hair out of her face - it was really windy. And when A reads this sentence, she'll get all flustered, it's the most hilarious thing to watch! Sometimes J and I compliment her on purpose just to watch her reaction.
Jacket (Hannah): Zara, Top: Zara, Skirt: Vintage (Black & Brown), Shoes: Asos, Socks: Target, 
Earrings: Vintage (Black & Brown), Rings: Forever 21

I just realized a few days ago that we don't always write under each post and we never really explained it, in fact we don't explain a lot of things....like how there's a been a forth person as part of the blog for a while...which we just mentioned only like two three posts ago. Call us mysterious. A lot of that has to do with being busy, sometimes inconvenience or lack of inspiration, but mostly it's because we're lazy. But, sometimes it's just so damn hard to write even a sentence - for example, the amount of updates on our twitter accounts - doesn't happen as often as we like. But really, the sparse posting schedule is only and only because of a busy schedule. We can only get together on the weekends and take pictures of our latest/most worn outfits.

You're already been acquainted with the jacket, controversially known as Hannah. When A first purchased it, it was solely based on the studded-minty perfection. She thought it might be too hot to actually wear right now and she would only wear it when she moved to San Francisco. ...but of course never trust the weather in California. It got cold a few days later and well she pretty much wore it this whole weekend...keeps you perfectly comfortable in 60-70 degree weather. The shirt is awesome because ALL THE STUDS! Also, it's cotton and super soft, really what else do you need. Lastly, A's dream of wearing socks with heels finally came true when one day we went to Target and saw those socks and well you can see all the cacophony of color and pattern that occurs, which is a constant theme in our outfits. 

On an end note, we're planning to update our profile soon so you actually know what the hells going on. Let's see when it actually happens.

Them boots.

Sweater: Michael Kors (Macy's), Bag: Vintage, Gold cuff and Giraffe bracelet: Forever 21, Vintage cuff with stone: Black & Brown, Ring: Jewel Mint, Boots: Halogen (Nordstrom)

I wish the title could say it all because I'm so sleepy, but I should totally mention that the bag is vintage, it belonged to J's mom and she's been using it for months now...it has so many compartments, the color is amazing and you can pretty much wear it everyday, all day. We take it to all our photo-shoots because it has room for things like safety-pins and tape. Utterly fantastic. J had been looking for sweaters to add to her sweater-lacking Fall/Winter closet and this Michael Kors one, which she snagged for only $30 by the way from Macy's, is just what she needed. So soft, comfortable and that color.... 

I am about to doze off with my laptop still in my lap...giraffe bracelet, from Forever 21, is so adorable and I'm totally going to borrow it soon. I don't know if we ever talked about the vintage store Black and Brown, which is in San Jose...it's a great place and we've found some really great pieces there - that cool cuff with the triangle 'stone' is from there...I totally wanna call it rad. That is not a word I use in my vocabulary...this is what happens when I'm sleepy. On an endnote, let me repeat the title. Them boots. Yeah. Possibly the most beautiful brown boots on this planet. I went there.

Oh and if you think she's holding something in her hands, that's a candy cane, cause it's almost Christmas!! All three of us were eating them when we took these pictures and a bunch more, which you will see in the coming days. 

Night folks.

Burnt-Umber by the Vines.

All of us have been meaning to check out the thrift/vintage stores in this area for a while now. There are so many nice ones in San Francisco, but we wanted to find one or two places that were closer to home. We kept talking about it, but it kept getting postponed. A and I were near downtown and decided that instead of going back home, why not visit at least one store. J had an unexpected guest show up at her house, so she couldn't make it...so it was just the two of us. 

A's phone wasn't very helpful in finding directions, so we chose to drive and figure it out ourselves...and guess what? We found a store, not the one we were originally looking for, but hey! It's called Black and Brown and it was spectacular. The place looks amazing, it's quite big and in the first minute A found those sequin platforms, Michael Kors, for only $36! Aren't they just gorgeous?! The skirt is also from there...we'll be going to another one soon and we'll be sure to take pictures. We're definitely going back to this place again, all three of us, and going to act like deranged crazy people who can't speak but only scream incoherently...because seriously it was like crack to a drug addict, we liked so many things - too bad we don't have an unlimited supply of money.
