RVCA: First Thoughts

A couple of weeks ago I received a package in the mail containing two dresses from RVCA. As this is the first time I have ever purchased anything from this brand I decided to do a small review on my thoughts as a consumer.

Nordstrom was the first place I saw the brand, when looking in the men’s section for my boyfriend. The items were quality, but also a pretty penny. Recently, I was browsing online and decided to check out their website where I fell in love with the button up shark fin dress. Unfortunately, the dress fit a bit oddly so it was returned. It was as if I was too big in the waist, not big enough in the chest and so on.

Social Media Tip

Life after college lately has consisted of working ten to twelve hour days for six to seven days a week. It has been nuts and I will admit I’ve let my health overall slip. Every day is basically eat, work, sleep, repeat. One thing that has kept me sane during this busy season are my favorite social influencers on instagram. Yes, I know it is bad to be on your phone while eating but that’s a whole other subject.

Getting into Character

The wait is finally over, the second Incredibles movie is out! Lets be honest, the second movie for most shows never feels as good as the first. However, I would disagree when it comes to Incredibles 2. My favorite character in both pictures has to be Edna, she’s hilarious. Her style, spunk and overall character is amazing.

DetraPel Review

Summer is one of those seasons when I want to break out those squeaky clean white on white shoes. Then the little voice in the back of my mind goes through a checklist of the day’s activities to protect the innocence of those beautiful white sexy chucks. The wet grass, dust, dirt, the possibility of someone spilling something on them.

Lavender Festival

The California heat is definitely here! To start off the summer I headed to a festival with a couple of people. It was a first time experience, the Lavender Festival is something I would consider exploring for a second time, perhaps if the weather is not in the triple digits. Vendors offered all natural and homemade products and plants. Animals ranging from bees to sheep were there for viewing as well as to promote local business. Delicious bites were plentiful to snack on and keep cool.

The Truth Behind Sizing

Ever wonder why you are never the same size across all clothing brands? Possibly freaked out after you assumed you gained weight when you were a size two last trip but a size six this time. It’s a mental battle, which is exactly why brands do it. Officially titled vanity sizing by the industry, to conger up insecurities to increase buying power by women who are pleasantly pleased to find out they are a size XXS (extra, extra skinny).
