Let me explain something. Sometimes I don’t want to wash my hair. Meaning 96% of the time. I don’t wash it very often since I spend a lot of my time in the gym. No point in washing my hair so I can workout, then work from home in my pajamas and smell like steak, then just workout the next morning. Get my point? So once I got to California, I washed my hair once and that was it. But my hair gets disgusting after one day, so I wore a hat the entire time until my last night. The last night I used as much hair spray as possible to keep the hair from looking less greasy. It didn’t work.
Moving on.
The first night in San Diego, I grabbed some dinner solo on a cute little patio. Usually I would only wear workout clothes when heading to dinner by myself, but I REALLY needed to wash my hair, so I wore real people clothes. Boyfriend jeans were a must. And I am obsessed with this solar necklace from Miranda Frye! If you’re into this necklace, be sure to check my instagram later today, I’ll be giving away one!!

Second day in San Diego meant wearing the same hat, duh, and comfy clothes and shoes since I would be outside running around and being sweaty. Best shorts ever to wear all day.

The third day in San Diego meant shopping, eating and more eating. So I started the first part of the day in comfy shoes, yet again, my favorite maxi dress, and my hat. Duh. This dress hugs the curves perfectly without saying “Oh hey cellulite!” It’s wonderful.

Last outfit was my night-out outfit for San Diego. No way in hell was I wearing a short skirt and wedges all day, so I used this outfit only for dinner and drinks only. It’s really only comfortable for a max of 4 hours, let’s be real.

I love this stuff!! And the best part is, it comes in a travel size.
I’m in the same boat. I’ve been researching new updos to try to get out of my ponytail rut.
You look amazing in that blue dress!
