Long time no see everyone, I’ve been trying to hold on to summer’s last bits of sun in La Jolla, San Diego the past week. I’m no stranger to SD, however I haven’t been back in what seems like forever so this was a fun trip to not only relax but also to spend some time with our friend Shelli and her family. @Twelfthknight and I stayed in La Jolla’s Hyatt Regency, and if you make a trip out here I would highly recommend this location, just 20 minutes north of the airport and super close to the beach and fun eateries. It’s a very clean hotel and their staff made us feel warm and welcome.
It was incredibly hot that weekend, so we spent an incredible amount of time stretched out in our cabana and in the pool soaking up that vitamin D. Hopefully my tan stays around for another few weeks into Fall *fingers crossed. Speaking of fingers, yes I am engaged! For my Instagram community, you were the first to know a while ago, but yes…@Twelfthknight and I are now engaged. If you’re not following @shoes_and_sashimi on Instagram, I wish you would because that’s where I post daily and interact with you all via Stories. It’s a great way to get more personal so don’t be shy!
Below you will find some of my swim and sun favorites used and worn this past week. P.S…of all the coffee shops in SD, my favorite has to be Communal Coffee which also acts as a flower shop. Highly recommend visiting this little gem.





If you’re planning to get away to beautiful San Diego one of these days, I would highly recommend La Jolla’s Hyatt Regency as we had one of the most relaxing stays in a long time and do plan on staying here again for future weekend trips. Thanks for reading and safe travels!
