As much as I love rompers, I have never been able to find a jumpsuit that fits me well. They always hug in the wrong parts and bag in others. There's nothing cute about diaper booty! While my mom and I were shopping in Vegas, we came across this leopard jumpsuit from Express. In the spirit of Vegas, I thought I might as well try it on. As fate would have it, it fit like a glove. The leopard was just an added treat. I ended up wearing it for our last night out on the town in Vegas. Our night was filled with lots of walking and dancing. The romper was so comfortable I could have wore it to bed! They also carry this romper in a variety of solid colors. I think I am going to go back and get the black one, it's nice alternative to the LBD!

As usual I am thrilled it's Friday! But today I'm extra excited because Tyler and I are going to see Darius Rucker tonight!! Darius Rucker has been on my bucket list for sometime. Hootie & The Blow Fish was my very first CD! Tyler surprised me with 3rd row tickets for my birthday. He's playing at the  Del Mar Fair (yes, I still call it that!) So our night is going to filled with lots of fried food, country music and rides...yay!

XOXO, Kayla

.Instagram Lately // @Kotineru.

Good Morning & Happy Hump Day! I felt like it was about time I did another "Instagram Lately". I tend to share a little more of my daily life on there, and lately they both have been filled with lots of color! You can tell summer is in full swing here in Southern California. Hope you enjoy a couple snapshots from my daily life. If we aren't friends on Instagram, yet, let's be! I enjoy interacting with my readers, it always brightens my day :)

There really are no words to describe the joy I felt when I came across this front door mat!! Tyler might not have been as stocked, haha. It makes me smile every time I step outside the front door. Sadly it's not online for me to link up but there was plenty in the store!

                                     

PJs, Forever 21 // Nails, Essie 'Bikini So Teeny'

We all know the fashion world is currently crushing on anything & everything pineapple print. Naturally I died a little when I came across these pj's at Forever 21! The shirts so cute, you could even get away with wearing it with some cute boyfriend jeans or shorts!

While shopping in Vegas I ended up in Topshop, trying to find the perfect pink lipstick. Man, talk about a difficult task! I wanted to buy them all, but I was good and only left with two. My favorite out of all of them is "Boom Boom".

Ahhhh, love! These sunnies basically jumped off the shelf and into my shopping bag! I love the retro, vintage feel they give for under $5!

I enjoy painting my nails so much, I always have. It's very relaxing to me, but I always struggle with trying to pick one color, since I have so many favorites. I decided to shake it up and paint each nail a different Essie pink for an ombre effect. The end result was so adorable, I couldn't stop looking at my nails!! I have been thinking about all the different color combos I can come up with, and I think purple is next on the list :)

Hi, my name's Kayla and I have a serious cup collecting problem! I'm not kidding, I have a different cup for every occasion. So naturally with summer fast approaching, I had to invest in a cute cup for my cocktails around the pool. This adorable monogram cup, from Simply Southern Chics, is my jam!

XOXO, Kayla

On Sunday Tyler and I headed to the beach to celebrate his Grandpa's 88th birthday! While we were killing time before brunch, we decided to take a walk around the bay. The weather was amazing and it was beautiful out! It was such a lovely day and really reminded me how gorgeous our city really is.

Could I be anymore obsessed with this skirt? Probably not! I picked it up when we were in Vegas and have found myself wanting to wear it every single day! By the way, The Fashion Show Mall in Vegas has the BEST Forever 21. Every corner I turned I found the cutest accessories, shoes, and clothes. It should totally be on your to do list next time you find yourself in Vegas.

Speaking of  obsessed, Coralee Boutique has quickly become one of my favorite online destinations! This pearl necklace is one of the cutest around. We all know I love my bling, but combine that with the always classic pearl necklace, and you have the most swoon worthy necklace! It pairs perfectly with your favorite blouse, a summer dress, and even jeans & a t shirt for a chic casual look.

XOXO, Kayla

From the moment I saw this dress on White Plum's website I knew I was in love! As fate would have it, it arrived just in time to jump in my suitcase for our Vegas trip this past weekend. There's something about Vegas that just makes me want to wear lots color! Plus it was super hot, so the light, flowy fabric was perfect for a night out on the town! From dinner at Guy Fieri's Kitchen & Bar (obsessed, go check it out!) to drinks and dancing, this dress was perfect and was exactly what I wanted! This dress will definitely get a lot of wear this summer!

On a totally different note, is anyone else reading "Gone Girl" ? Tyler got it for me and I serioursly can't put it down!! If you haven't read it, I suggest you go out and get it now!! I find myself racing home from shopping to read.....that's how you know it's a good book :)

Hope everyone's week is off to a great start!

XOXO, Kayla

I bought this top weeks ago when I was doing one of my Forever 21 shopping trips. I tucked it away knowing that I had to find the perfect skirt or summer shorts to pair it with. I seriously searched high and low, scoured the internet, checked every boutique in San Diego, but still nothing was doing it for me.  Last weekend, I was doing yet again another Forever 21 shopping trip, when I came across this gorgeous eyelet blush skirt. I knew immediately I had found the perfect match. The two together are the epitomite of dainty and girly. This outfit is just so lovely. It makes me think outdoor summer tea party or perfect for a bridal shower. Which, did I mention, my best friend got engaged recently?! So I’m sure I will have plenty of excuses to wear this combo in the near feature!!

Today's finally the day when Tyler & leave for Vegas!! I am so excited I can hardley contain myself. I'm sure you will hear all about it next week, but in the meantime you can always follow along on Instagram!


XOXO, Kayla

I'm always on the search for the perfect white summer dress. I almost died when I found this dress for $16.99 at TJ Maxx last week!!  I have so many places I plan on wearing this dress! It's the perfect dress to have on hand for any occasion, fancy or not! This past weekend I wore it to wine tasting with Tyler and my cousin, who is leaving for Europe to study abroad, so there was lots of celebrating going on. This was the most ideal dress to do it in. It looks adorable and was beyond comfortable all day long.

I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend! Most of our weekend was really laid back, which  I was really happy about!  This weeks going to be crazy and jam packed before we leave for Vegas on Thursday!! I'm counting down the minutes till we are on that plane!

XOXO, Kayla
