Opposites Attract!


J's Outfit: Top- Brandy Melville, Jeans- Juicy Couture, Boots- Forever 21
C's Outfit: Top & Vest- Forever 21, Shoes- Nike Dunks


Opposites attract, sometimes and in this case, they do! I think it's the color scheme of our outfits that make this work...C's outfit is so biker chic and mine is way more feminine with the floral top but the colors in our outfits are all neutral- there are blue, black and white-ish tones that blend both our different outfits together and btw how awesome are C's Nike dunks? ;)

--------------------------------

I miss dressing and accessorizing my outfits, I'm so sad it's nearly impossible to do here in Vietnam. It's too hot to layer, it's too "dangerous" to wear jewelry because I may get robbed anytime, and the least amount of items on you the better *sigh* this sucks- I miss all my clothes and my SHOES back at home.

Another thing, I can't believe MARCH starts at the end of this week! I feel like the days and weeks go by slow but once I realize it's the start of another month, it hits me how fast it went by. I'm enjoying my traveling time so far but I do miss home and of course my bestie. I usually always know what's going on with her but being on opposite ends of the world makes it hard- thank goodness for email, magic jack, and phone apps, I think it's funny that our friendship is now electronic based haha <3 whatever works!

Love, J

It's Summer Over Here!


J's Outfit: Top- Forever 21, Skirt- Brandy Melville, Belt- NastyGal, Sunglasses- Raybans


As some of you or all of you know, I'm on the other side of the world- traveling in Southeast Asia, Vietnam to be exact! One of my goals this year was to travel more and to not "think twice" so here I am, it's my first time here and it took a while to get adjusted to the humid/hot weather but it's getting better. It's definitely summer for me over here,  cool airy clothes are my go to items. 

This Brandy Melville skirt I got for Christmas is made of thin, soft material so it keeps me nice and cool AND keeps the mosquitos away ;). Too bad it's a little too humid to really dress nice, I tend to dress extremely simple here just because you step outside and start sweating almost instantly. Either way, I'm taking advantage and putting all my summer items to good use! 

Have a great weekend, everyone and keep checking back to get updates on both of our lives on opposite ends of the world- wished you were here with me, C <3!

Love, J

We say spoil your bestie, this day is the perfect excuse to and it's what we love doing to each other.

Explore. Dream. Discover.


J and I are at that age where we are slowly (actually it feels pretty quick!) leaving our mid-20's and entering our late 20's. This can be such an exciting but scary time because there is so much that is unknown but so much hope of what's to come in life. Opening our own business together has taught us so much about what life is truly about- embracing every moment and doing what we truly believe in because life is too short to waste on "whatever" days. So when J was considering taking a few months to travel and embrace a great opportunity that came her way, I was nothing but excited for her- ok, I'm not going to lie, I was really sad that she would be far from me... but mostly, very very excited for her & this new experience! I think the quote above truly describes what I would like to say to her right now ;)

Friendship isn't always about being with each other 24/7 but it's knowing that even apart, you have that ONE person who will always be there for you, supporting you and cheering you on. so... J, I love you and no matter how many miles we are apart from one another, just knowing that you are THERE is what makes everything okay. EXPLORE. DREAM. DISCOVER.

Follow us on instagram @buylovegivelove for instant updates from both of us, miles and miles apart from one another! & don't forget to check out discounted "LOVE" Items!

Love, C
