500 days of bummer

Pixie Market Lilac Moto Jacket / H&m Jumper and Sunglasses / Style Stalker Ceremony Dress / River Island Bag / See by Chloé Colorblock Suede Pumps

This is my not-so-secret spot in Los Angeles, a hidden gem most famously known for its scene in 500 Days of Summer. It’s one of those locations where in that moment you reach the destination, you really do feel an air of cinema. Outside of being serenely beautiful, the rolling green hills and cluster of large, shady trees overlooking the view of the Historic Bank District in Downtown gives off a sharp juxtaposition of being inside the park. It’s a type of paradox that makes you feel like where you’re standing is out of context from where you are. It’s also a place where you find couples old and young making out on the benches, usually on the “Honeymoon Phase” of a relationship. Fortunately, this is not a place for bad endings.

    No matter what season it is, you are the queen of pastel. And somehow, you make it look great. How.. I will never know. All I know is that you’ve inspired me to bust out the pastels that probably would not have seen daylight until next spring!

    Confession: I think I might be the only person on the face of this planet who has yet to see “500 Days of Summer.” Sad sad. That’s definitely something I need to remedy ASAP! Everyone talks about how great the movie is and I want to see it like now!

    That’s so cool that you’re actually in the location where they filmed a scene from the movie, Olivia! Somehow, seeing movie scenery in real life is just so unsettling. It’s hard to believe that you’re actually there where a movie star was :)

    I’m really loving all the pastels in your outfit girl! You look sweet and feminine and all rainbows and butterflies, fitting in perfectly with the lovey dovey feel of the backdrop as well as the lush greenery. Purple and cream look so yummy together…I wonder why there isn’t food that’s those two colors! Aside from looking delicious though, your outfit is very layery awesome. Your jumper is perfectly knit and that purple (!) moto jacket spices things up. Not to mention those fab shoes and the neutral sunglasses. Oh and the pop of red via your nail polish.

    Once again Olivia, you school me in the art of getting dressed.
    Please excuse me while I go try to make a cream and purple pairing (both in my kitchen and in my closet)!
    Hope you’re having a lovely week! <3
