Cropped + Plaid in Pasadena

Good morning loves! Seeing One Direction last week was so much fun, I just wanted to share a few more pictures with you all of what Ema and I wore to the concert. We both opted for crop tops and skater skirts because it was just too hot to wear anything else! (She let me borrow her plaid skirt because as usual, I couldn’t find anything to wear.) DSC_0087 DSC_0048DSC_0050DSC_0054DSC_0076DSC_0070DSC_0056DSC_0085

One Direction Where We Are Tour

During my junior year of high school, I became a Zayn girl. After my best friend Ema introduced me to One Direction and their What Makes You Beautiful music video, I fell in love with these adorable British boys that have become a worldwide sensation. I have been to every single one of their concerts and I may or may not have a shirt with Zayn’s face on it and a lifesize cardboard cutout… Anyways, Thursday night was the first of One Direction’s three-night performances at the Rose Bowl in Pasedena, which Ema and I *FINALLY* were able to get floor seats for!

5S0S opened up the show and then the 1D boys performed all the songs off their Midnight Memories album and a few off their older albums. We both had an absolutely incredible time at the concert- One Direction always puts on an amazing show! (See more about what we wore here.)

Who else went to the One Direction Where We Are Tour? How was your experience?

OC Fair Adventures ft. Karmin + Fifth Harmony

Happy Monday, loves! Hope you all had an amazing weekend. This last Friday night I went to the Orange County Fair with my friend Erica. Here’s some snaps from my Instagram and a few more unseen ones from my iPhone 🙂

We originally went to see Fifth Harmony in concert and we both didn’t even realize Karmin was actually headlining. After looking them up online, I recognized a few of their songs such as “Brokenhearted,” “Hello,” and “Acapella” and we decided to watch their performance too. We had so much fun at the concert/fair and found a great new band. You can check out more of Karmin’s music on their YouTube channel!

Packing for Warped Tour 2014

Spring and summer are the key times for festival season- there’s Coachella, Stagecoach, Bonnaroo, and Warped Tour just to name a few. Vans Warped Tour is unique in the fact that it lasts for over a month, with the bands traveling to locations all across the U.S. on tour buses to perform. This was my fourth time going to Warped- my first time was during my sophomore year in high school in Ventura, and then last year I bought the two day pass in Pomona. There are usually a lot of scene and screamo bands, but there’s also some more pop-punk and indie music there- for example, this year the bands The Summer Set, Echosmith, The Maine, We the Kings, All Time Low, Cute is What We Aim For, The Ready Set, and Breathe Carolina were all performing.

When packing for music festivals, the first things to put on the top of your list are bottled water and sunscreen. It’s important to stay cool, hydrated, and protected from the sun (usually it will be very hot!) So I decided to make a list of all the things I packed in my very own sparkly backpack (similar)…

What’s in my bag:

30 SPF Sunscreen | Secret Summerberry Antiperspirant EOS Sweet Mint Lip Balm }

Coach Poppy Rollerball | Target sunglasses | Clean & Clear Oil-Absorbing Sheets }

{ Bottled water | Ice Breaker Mints | Wallet | Icing Monopoly phone case }

Another thing to keep in mind is that if you plan on buying merch, you’ll need to pack light and keep some extra space in your bag for CDs, T-shirts, posters, etc. Also, no one wants to carry around an extremely heavy bag all day long.

Be sure to check out my newest blog post on TNT Tauna of my Warped 2014 Trend Report… Now here’s some more pictures I snapped throughout the day!

Eye of the Tiger

Here’s a few snaps of the outfit I wore the day of The Summer Set concert in San Francisco. While visiting the nearby park by our hotel, I made a new furry friend named Javi.
