CASUAL CROCHET

Not sure what's happening with LA weather lately, but it feels like it can't make up it's mind. It changes momentarily, and cold, cloudy mornings sometimes turn into beautiful sunny days. Of course sometimes they don't, that's why when the sun does come out, it certainly much appreciated:)! Because the weather was so nice yesterday, Emil and I decided to visit one of our favorite places, the Getty Villa. Since I knew we were going to be walking around quite a bit, I decided this was the perfect occasion to wear my new Aleeyas sandals. Aside from being super comfortable, I am quite obsessed with the gorgeous jeweled uppers, made with real crystals. I also love the fact that the jeweled uppers come in a variety of colors and styles and are interchangeable. At the moment I can't decide between the Glamour and Desire sets. Which one do you guys like best? Or should I just get both?:)

Spikes and Pleats

Getty Villa in Malibu is one of my favorite places to visit in LA. Aside from the gorgeous gardens and architecture the villa houses a very impressive collection of Greek and Roman art. On a warm, sunny day I love nothing more than getting a cup of great coffee up on the patio and admiring the beautiful surroundings.

So, I have a new pair of shoes! I know, I know, but I just couldn’t resist! I was a little scared to walk in these at first because I am a huge klutz. I was pretty sure taking half of my foot off with the spikes on the back was unavoidable. But alas, they are positioned just perfectly so the side of your foot never comes in contact with anything sharp! Emil was making fun of me of course, because he was sure I would have bought them regardless! Ahh, he knows me well… I totally would have! J

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend,

Love,

Annabelle
