Even though I’ve been enjoying the opportunity to be more creative with my wardrobe now that I’m “funemployed,” I have still managed to develop a summer uniform which consists of this pair of Madewell denim shorts, a tank or t-shirt and a hat. You can catch me in this outfit almost every other day because it’s the perfect thing to wear during the high temperatures that have been plaguing SoCal these past few weeks. Plus, since I’ve been trying to make the most of my free time, having a go-to outfit has proved to be very convenient in enabling me to get ready and out the door as soon as possible.

Speaking of having time to spare, I’ve really been enjoying this extended vacation and love being able to fully enjoy my time in LA before my big move to Portland. Ever since leaving my job a little over a week ago, I’ve already managed to make multiple trips to the beach, take the train to Downtown LA, and visit some of my favorite coffee shops. I already know that I’m going to miss so many things once I leave, but it only means I have something to look forward to whenever I travel back home. On that note, I’ll take any advice you have on how to deal with being homesick, since I already know that it’s something I’ll eventually experience.
