Zach McCaffree photographed the lovely Shay enjoying a day in Santa Barbara for this exclusive C-Heads editorial.

Though the editorial looks easygoing and lackadaisical, it took a little while for the duo to get going. Shay had only just gotten back from a [trip to Bali](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/travel-diaries-collection) the day before, and she was exhausted and armed with all of her belongings. Once they got some caffeine in their system, however, Shay and McCaffree began having some [tourist-y fun](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boys-lie-license-plate).

McCaffree explains, "Even if you live in Los Angeles you can play tourist for super cheap." The two rode several rides on the pier and then went out for some [greasy Italian grub](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/private-culinary-installation) from one of those chain restaurant.
