Hello, March! This past weekend Chas + I got to fly out to Malibu for a few days! It’s been nothing but rainy and gloomy here in Dallas so it was nice to soak in some sunshine. I can’t help but anticipate the start of spring after getting a taste of California.

Sunday morning we drove to Malibu Farm to explore and stroll along the pier, enjoying the gorgeous view. If you’re ever in Malibu you have to make a stop by the pier. Malibu Farm is the most darling spot for a little brunch or lunch.

Fun fact: I’ve had this dress since middle school! (It’s gotten a little shorter since then, it used to hit me mid-calf). Every time I clean out my closet I always decide to keep it and I’m so glad I did. It made for an effortless beachy boardwalk look. I threw on this Free People cardigan which has been one of the best purchases I’ve made this past season. I love that it can easily transition into spring like how I’m wearing it in today’s post. I also recently bought these cut out booties and they are so comfortable and go with everything – I would say they run true to size.
