Only two weeks until I leave California and I am truly in denial… instead of thinking about it I’ve been busy soaking up this perfect summer. It was a week like most—a mix of beach days, internship hours, and styledby content. I’ve been girl bossing hard lately, packing my days as full as possible.
We’ve spent the weekend on another girl’s trip, this time to Vegas. I’ve got an outfit guide + travel guide coming your way soon. Stay tuned!
With love, McKenz

WHAT’S HAPPENING THIS WEEK
Sunday, July 10
Ashley and I were up and at em early this morning—we packed our beach bags and headed down to Newport for the day. We had ourselves the perfect beach day, swimming in the hugest waves, eating pb&js, and reading new books. I’m reading Layla by Colleen Hoover and am just loving it so far. We went to the Lighthouse restaurant along the marina for dinner where we had some yummy calamari and shrimp tacos. Such a fun Sunday!

Went over to Hermosa early this morning so that I could get some beach time in before interning. It was a slow afternoon in the store since it was a gloomy day out. Ashley and I headed over to American Junkie, our favorite restaurant on the pier, for $5 burger night. Our food was amazing as always so we went home stuffed and happy.

Filming Tik Toks before going to work this morning. I shot 17 flat lays today and filmed a few different reels. We got Paradise bowls for lunch and I tried a new flavor today. After work, I headed down to the beach to read some more of my book + catch a little bit of sun. Ash and I ate dinner together and then finished our night with a hit girl walk.

I didn’t have to intern today so I woke up bright and early so that I could have a packed styledby day. I got a blog post and a YouTube video up then shot two sponsored campaigns for Desenio and Walmart. Afterward, Ashley and I packed up and drove over to Pacific Palisades for the day. We shot some content along the beach, the cute houses, and more. I was so happy to get seven looks knocked out—trying hard to stock-pile content for when I move home in a few weeks.

Off to Hermosa for a day full of work. We shot and drafted a ton of content for Tiff to post over the weekend and reorganized some new arrivals that just came in. I spent the evening prepping for Vegas—outfit planning, packing, and painting my nails. I’m so excited for our girls weekend.

Roadtripping to Vegas with the roomies this morning. We checked into the Virgin Hotel for a fun weekend. After getting ready we headed over to The Strip, exploring the Venetian and taking some adorable photos. We ate some amazing Mexican food for dinner and then went to a comedy show with Sal Vulcano. It was my first one and so fun!

I made the girls go out to the Vegas sign first thing this morning. It really is just something to look at but we got a super cute photo together. We went over to The Strip and explored “Paris” + caught the water show. Jules took us to a restaurant called Spago and we got the best seat in the house + the treated us to so many goodies. Our night was spent taking photos, sipping drinks by the pool, and eating more yummy food.
