Kensie sheer back sweater | Thrifted cut-offs | Jeffrey Campbell exclusive snake Litas

If you think I have an extensive shoe collection, you ought to check out my twin sister's. She has at least twice as many shoes than I do, and all of them are totally rad. Her footwear library would make a lot of girls truly envious. One of the many perks of staying at my family's house during our vacation to L.A. was that I got to borrow my sister's clothes and shoes. These python printed Jeffrey Campbell Litas are just another example of mentioned borrowing from my twin sister, Jennifer. Makes you want to tromp around in these all day despite your fears of the slithering desert creatures.

We took these photos at the canyon behind my family's house in L.A. where I grew up. I never get tired of the mountain range view, whether snow capped, brimming in summer tinged grass, or carpeted with emerald forestry. They add such natural, spectacular definition to any background.

  3. Amazing shoes! From far away, the look like a floral print. I am deeply jealous of your shoe collection, and of the fact that your sister gets you so many pairs. Let's see if I can convince my sister to follow her example...

Sadly, I'm not sure they would work out for me because in Rome, we have so much cobblestone and uneven ground that I wouldn't be able to walk in them probably.. Yours are awesome, and I love how they are the focus of your outfit! xx
