While I love a good trend, I've always valued the importance of personal style.
I don't like when people put on this facade and they're perfect in every photo.
I'm someone who messed up quite a few times.
Yes, I am a necklace addict. The statement necklace has always been a go-to accessory of mine.
I love a good gossip and some goat cheese balls. It's kind of my favorite thing.
A black faux fur gilet thrown over a t-shirt and jeans creates an insta-chic look in a boho-glam sort of way. And an oversized faux fur coat oozes sophistication and charm.
I tell people this all the time: If you live like an open book, it feels so good because you're totally embracing who you are and you know that nobody could ever have anything on you.
Lace is tricky, as it can sometimes come off as 'cheap looking' if worn incorrectly. To prevent this from happening, try lace in muted colors and don't overdo it.
I've always been a fan of texture in my wardrobe as I feel that texture gives any outfit a sense of depth and opulence.
It's always awkward when I meet a stranger and they tell me how surprised they are that I'm not an evil lunatic in person. I just giggle!
I like soothing relaxing music.
I don't like secrets.
Fashion is not style, but merely an outlet to showcase our unique personal styles.
I discovered the best flea markets that have great vintage jewels, little hidden boutiques with one-of-a-kind accessories, and the ideal spots for wardrobe staples.
I've had a love affair with fashion since the age of 5, when I would ask my grandmother to let me wear three different dresses a day.
It's always awkard watching two people flirt for the first time.
Every relationship goes through ups and downs; every couple is different.
I'm not a stylist.
I couldn't imagine my boyfriend hanging out with people that hate me. That's grounds for breaking up. That crosses the line.
I had every intention of leaving Los Angeles, moving to New York, and starting over - but life happened, as it always does.
Following your dreams is what you are supposed to do, but it was very ironic that following my heart brought me back full circle.
I firmly believe that in life, one deserves to be celebrated not tolerated, so I refuse to surround myself with people who don't support me.
As anyone knows, when you move your life across the country, and end up coming back full circle, you still have to rebuild from scratch.
Being a waitress isn't a career, and I think most people want to make something of themselves and move on.
Why is it that people always think I have this magical influence over people?
I love the water.
I love the sun.
Joan Rivers was my idol.
I wouldn't be able to go on being friends with someone who might have done something terrible to me.
I love a good wax! I just love the cleanliness and smoothness of it!
I've always been comfortable with my girlfriends, but I think as I've aged, I've gotten more comfortable.
I feel a huge sense of acceptance with my body by being open with my friends.
I have the mentality of like 'Let me show you my back fat or my muffin top, so that I don't have to keep trying to hide it!'
Years ago, we used to take burlesque classes as a hobby.
We all clown on each other at SUR, it's all fun and games.
To be honest, there is no song in the world I want to hear 44 times on repeat.
I was cheated on, and so many people just viewed me as this miserable nagging person, but I was living everyday with that heartache. I was going everyday feeling hopeless and down about myself and in turn that made me act out.
I think any girl who has ever been cheated on can understand feeling a sense of satisfaction from seeing your ex realize he made a huge mistake when he hurt you.
I don't sugar coat anything.
I didn't want to feel bad for someone who has done terrible, terrible things to me.
A tattoo doesn't change feelings.
There is never any excuse for treating your boss with disrespect.
