In case you didn't decipher the very California acronyms: I went to Downtown LA (DTLA) to visit the American Apparel Flea Market (AA) and ended up at this cool shopping center where my friends and I had lunch at California Pizza Kitchen (CPK). I rarely venture down to dtla due to my sheltered upbringing and the constant thought of it being creepy and dirty. Well creepy and dirty are accurate descriptions of dtla, at least some parts, where you can see actual poverty (contrasting with the luxurious lofts and office buildings) with your own eyes. But I don't want to turn this blog post into a discussion about the unsettling socioeconomic state of California and how the homeless are treated like invisible people, so I'll end this post on a good note. (Okay, I did not realize how insensitive that last bit sounded until I wrote it out)...
I'll be posting my outfit from this day soon, and hopefully other "day-in-the-life post like this, will continue to appear on the blog! (If I don't forget to take pictures)
