madonna inn

So this is the final batch of photos from my road trip adventure up the California coast ::tear:: On our way to Big Sur, my boyfriend and I stopped at the Madonna Inn. I've been wanting to check this place out for years so hallelujah that it finally happened. It is just as quirky and over the top as I pictured it. So many lights and bright colors it's hard not to fall in love with it. The decor was especially over the top thanks to the holiday season. Score. The dining area is the main event with its giant beaded chandelier and hot pink booths, but the crown jewel in my eyes is the men's bathroom. Yes, the men's bathroom! I should preface this by saying there were no gentlemen using the facilities at the time I barged in. So instead of a urinal, the men get to relieve themselves into a large rock waterfall. Some people just have all the luck. Such an amazing trip with my partner in crime boyfriend. I love traveling with him especially since he lets me sing so loud and obnoxiously in the car. Onto the next one!

Still reminiscing about my road trip to Big Sur. Can't believe it has been exactly a week since we hit the road! Speaking of which, I don't know many things that are worse than mondays. It's the complete extreme of a "lazy sunday." Quite jarring if you ask me. Today, however, Monday gets a free pass because it's Cyber Monday! If you know me then you know I love a sale. An online sale requires no driving or pulling your hair out over parking - it's a win win - for you and your locks. But wait, there's more!

nasty gals do holidays better

The holidays are fast approaching and I'm doing my usual "I can't believe it's almost Christmas" routine. But for real, I can't believe it's almost Christmas?! With the holidays coming, outfits are obviously needed for various parties of the cookie-decorating and cocktail-drinking variety. This year I'm doing it Nasty Gal style. Immediately head over to their Perfect 10 feature where they have done all the work for you and created 10 amazing holiday looks. And you can score up to 50% off!! I mean. The outfit I'm wearing could be easily worn to ring in the new year or on a fancy date night. I love wearing formal dresses and adding a more casual element like this leopard coat. Outerwear is such a silent game changer. 

If you follow me on my Instagram you may have seen that I went on a road trip to Big Sur with my boo! We drove up the California coast soaking in the incredible views and making a few stops along the way. My wanderlust was starting to get the best of me, so this trip was definitely needed. California is so beautiful, it gets me every time. Can't wait to share more photos from my trip with you all. Also, I have an incredible giveaway happening very soon, so stay tuned!
