Got Milk?

Dress: American Apparel, Purse: Topshop (not sold online, see other purses here!)

Sorry for the delayed post! 

One of the things I do appreciate about Los Angeles is how scenic it is. I drove past this abandoned bleached white building one day on Sunset Blvd. and it immediately caught my eye. Later, I learned that this building, also known as the "Bates Motel," was a live art installation by French artist Vincent Lamouroux. Now it has become one of the most popular attractions in the Silverlake area and served as the perfect backdrop for this outfit.

 I experimented with the color story of this look and combined lighter hues with a brighter shade. This dress is great for the summer because it is comfortable and colorful. Statement accessories are great to jazz up any simple look, whether it be just jeans and a t-shirt or a plain frock. I love finding unique pieces that I wouldn't be able to find anywhere else. I paired this dress with one of my favorite finds so far this season. This particular purse caught my eye for it's whimsical silhouette.  A milk carton purse? How creative!
