Candypants.

Nothing says femininity like lavender trousers! Ok, that's probably untrue, but these make me feel girly in a 40's tomboy kinda way. I googled "candypants" after deciding that's what I would name this post. Apparently it's a chauvinistic name for a woman but I still think it's cute. Then again, I would never allow anyone to call me that. It's just because my pants look like candy! :)

While I really like the shape of these oxfords and I got them for like $25, the seam in back split after wearing them once. Come on! That's why I stopped buying cheap shoes and that's why I shall stop once more! Of course, I'm not saying I'm not still gonna wear these. I am.

This was a really fun afternoon. We got shrimp tostadas from this amazing blue food truck. There's something they do with cucumber on these things that is out of this world. Birdie also tried out her new polka dot harness and watched the literal Birds like a hawk!

*I think the tostada pictures probably look gross but I'm blinded but how good they were so they don't look gross to me. Sorry if they do to you!

Anyway, it's definitely been feeling like early summer...in early January. It reminds me why I love LA so much and why I'm glad we haven't moved away.

In closing, I CAN'T WAIT to go to Palm Springs for the next warm weekend (whenever that may be)!

XO Coury

    so cute! I really want that tostada now, and the pants are so sweet! I totally dreamed about having red pants last week, then woke up and was sad I don't have any. Should get on that

    I LOVE your pants. So jealous! I'm super jealous of that tasty looking tostada and jarritos too. I could seriously go for some Mexican food now...

    I'm glad to hear the weather is nice! I'll be in LA this upcoming weekend for work, so I'm super excited to be able to wear my wardrobe comfortably again. (I never shop for winter wear XD)

    Birdie is always so freaking adorable.

    those tostadas look amazing!! my husband will be very jealous when I show him! when we were in Huntington in May he made me drive around for 2 hours trying to find the Kogi food truck! I have to admit that it was well worth it!
    you are very lucky to live there - summer feels like it's never going to come here!
    you look beautiful as always :)

    Oh my gosh, those pants are definitely a candy-colored treat. I love that they match your lipstick shade (which btw, I am still on the search for, haha). Beautiful photos!
