We Bought a Zoo!

Some of the animals we got to see

I got to feed a giraffe!

Tank: Cotton On
Skirt: BCBGeneration
Belt: Forever21
Bag: H&M
Shoes: "Beka" by Dirty Laundry

After watching Matt Damon's, "We Bought a Zoo," (which is an amazingly cute movie) I had to go visit a zoo ASAP. So the very next day, the boy and I found ourselves at the Santa Barbara Zoo. I mean when is the last time you went to a zoo?!?

The Santa Barbara Zoo was unlike any other zoo I have been to. It wasn't so big that it was overwhelming and even overlooked the ocean. It was gorgeous! Not to mention the fact that I got to feed a giraffe! If you ever get the chance to, do it! It was only $6 so, I obviously jumped at the chance!

It was a nice sunny day in Santa Barbara so I chose to wear my favorite skirt from BCBGeneration. The picture is hard to see but there is a sheer lace overlay over some black lycra shorts. It's one of those skirts that's easy to dress up or down. I decided to wear my most comfortable pair of sandals from Dirty Laundry (Chinese Laundry's sister line). They are made out of lycra and spandex so they basically feel like a bathing suit is on your feet. If I was a total flats person I would wear these all day everyday. They come in every color, so I am definitely thinking about purchasing some more (p.s. they are only $50)  I even bought a pair for my friend that's on her European vacation right now and I know her feet can't thank me more!

Stay tuned for more!
