Inspiration day in LBC

The other day I spent a MUCH needed inspiring day in the city of Long Beach, California with a very talented designer friend of mine, Ms. Sheena. We set out on fourth street and enjoyed each other’s company over cups of Joe outside artsy cafĂ© Portfolio.  We went to a few local artist supporting boutiques, bookstores, Vintage shops and stumbled upon the cutest chic little women’s boutique called “Blu Button”. We were initially pulled in by a specific piece, but were pleasantly welcomed by the awesome uplifting energy of store owner, Esther. She had the sweetest most sincere vibes we’ve met in a while so we stayed, chatted, made some great purchases, and inevitably a new friendship. My fab girl Sheeluvlee is currently designing couture wedding gowns and Ms. Esther just so happened to have this dream wedding dress that needs the perfect hands to create. Did Fate bring us into this store? Perhaps, but definitely check it out if and when in the area! Great dresses, tops, bottoms, shoes and accessories at good price points and who can forget, the lovely owner who only wants to help you feel just as great about yourself as you did about your purchase:]
