Saturday I ran errands in this simple fit. Summers in LA are perfect for cutoffs, you can wear them with just a top, or layers for the chilly evenings. I've had this purse since college, and I still love its bohemian feel. I wear it ALL the time, lol!
My dream car is a yellow Wrangler... I could see myself riding through the desert, top down, shades on, hair in the wind... and everything flying out the car because I forgot to put them up! SMH!

How fun are overalls? When I stumbled on these at the H&M in Georgetown, I knew I had to get them. They are so versatile! You can dress them down with sneakers or dress them up with some killer heels or lace up ankle boots. Click 'read more' for more pics!
I think our heat wave is finally coming to an end. Today has been the coolest LA day in a while. Here's the outfit I wore last night to a comedy show. I'm rocking a bandeau, denim vest, DIY ripped jeans, and Steve Madden boots. If you haven't noticed, these are the same boots i wore in DIY Fatigue. I love them because your able to change the entire look by snapping the buttons on the side. They are like a 3-1 boot! Click 'read more' for more pics!!
Sunday is my favorite day of the week. I usually enjoy a great church service and a home cooked meal! Today I cooked balsamic glazed salmon and roasted potatoes with a tasty side salad. I really need to get back to posting recipes on my food blog, until then you can check out my foodie pictures on Instagram: Javicia Leslie. I took a few pictures of today's fit, a pretty simple look. I'm rocking an over-sized leopard sweater, loose pants, and my favorite grey chucks. How did you all spend your Sunday? Click 'read more' for more pics.
The weather was perfect today, a great day to hang out in LA. I've been keeping it really simple lately. Today I rocked a flannel top and DIY cut offs. Paired my fit with a pair of canvas Vans. Hope you all enjoyed your beautiful Saturday as well. Click 'Read More' for more pics!
Oh how I missed thee!!! Please forgive me for my 6 week absence, its been so long! I have been traveling since the last post and will finally return to sunny LA tomorrow morning. This return welcomes my favorite fashion season, fall! The best part of living on the west coast is the ability to mix and match summer and fall clothes, they make such a funky mix! To start with my fall looks, I made these cut off fatigues. I love the casualness that they give and you can pair them with a pair of girlie heels or flat military boots like mine. The best part is that I only paid $6.99 at the Salvation Army for the fatigues. Anywhoo, enjoy your week and check back Friday for a new look!! Click 'Read More' for more pics of this look.
I'm really proud of myself for posting three days in a row. Blogging is A LOT of work and can take hours to shoot, edit, post, and promote. So, three days in a row is great!!! Lol. Today was such a beautiful day, it was nearly 7pm when I snapped these shots, and the sun was steal beaming! I love California. Click 'Read More' for more photos!
I found these Frye biker boots at a local vintage spot in Austin, Texas almost two years ago. I can't believe this is m first time wearing them! Click 'Read More' for more photos!
Ahhh! I'm finally back in Los Angeles after traveling since mid May. I am proud to say that one of my besties is now a married woman! The wedding was absolutely beautiful... and the dress was to die for! Now that I'm back from the Bay area into good ol' sunny LA, its time to break out that summertime gear. As I took these pictures, I reminisced on being in New Orleans for Essence Festival this time last year. Unfortunately, we couldn't go this year... but we will definitely be in attendance next year.

I purchased this jumpsuit from Bebe a while back. I figured since the weather is getting warmer, this would be great time for some color. I'll be heading to DC this weekend to celebrate my birthday with my loved ones!!! Its the BIG 2-5, so I'm really excited. Its funny, every year I want to do something big for my birthday, this year I just want to be with the people who care about me! Click 'Read More' for more photos!
I love the new fringe trend, but anyone that knows me knows that I don't like to spend a lot on "trends". Today I decided to make my own DIY Fringe Top. Check out the video below the posts. Hope you enjoy :-)
If your unable to watch the video, here are the steps:
Step 1: Grab an old top that you don't mind cutting.
Step 2: Cut slits in bottom of top. How high you cut your slits, depends on how much stomach you want to show.
Step 3: Cut different lengths on random fringes.
Step 4: Cut sewn end on all remaining fringes.
Step 5: Tie the ends of all of the fringes.
Step 6: Pour bleach into an old spray bottle.
Step 7: Place top on plastic bag to protect any surfaces.
Step 8: Spray bleach randomly on your top.
Step 9: For a tie-dye effect, place fringes on the un-cut
