Old Maid

Hello!  I’ve been doing a little thinking about the past 10 years of my life.  I love my life, but with school starting and all it makes me think of high school.  I know, I’m that person, but in high school I didn’t have any responsibilities or cares in the world besides cheer, dance and boys!  I’ve been alone this whole week because I am in Dallas for work.  I have a lot of time to myself and I was thinking would I have changed things in my life that lead me to this point?  The only thing I would have changed was being more serious about school.  I went to some college, but never graduated.  Sometimes I think I should go back, but I don’t want to be the old maid in all of her classes.  Plus I haven’t been back for so long that I would have to take some of my general classes again and I do not want to be old enough to be a Freshman’s mother! HAHA  I feel like if I would have finished school I would have a better sense and direction in my life.  Being an adult is fun, but sometimes I wish I was that 16-year-old cheerleader whose parents still paid for everything!  Anyway…  Sorry for the rant.  Being alone so much sometimes isn’t good because my brain goes a million miles an hour and thinks of all the what could have beens.  I hope you have a good Friday!

NYC Restaurants

So today I’m sharing two of my favorite restaurants in NYC.  I was just there for work and every time I go I have to go to these places.  The first one is called Jack’s Wife Freda.  It is in Soho on Lafayette Street.  It’s super small, but so good.  I got the tuna salad and fries.  The portions are good-sized.  You will for sure get full.  The second place is Empanada Mama.  It’s in Mid Town on 9th Ave and in between 51-52nd street.  It is seriously a hole in the wall, but it is so good!  It is always packed when I go so plan for a 20-45 minute wait.  I always start with a mint lemonade and guacamole with plantain chips.  It’s by far one of the best guacamole’s I have ever had.  They have tons of empanadas, but I get the spinach and cheese, mushroom and one called the Viagra.  I know the name isn’t the best, but it’s a sea food empanada and it is amazing!  If you’re going to NYC soon go to those places.  I promise you won’t regret it!

A Little Bit of Color

I’ve noticed that my past few outfits have had some sort of blue hue in them so I decided to wear a colorful dress for this post.  Honestly, I love color, but I never wear it.  For some reason I always buy white, blue or black.  I should take advantage of the summer months and wear a lot of color, but I haven’t this year.  I bought this dress last year at Asos and actually got a green one too.  I love love love wearing flowy dresses.  They are the best and make you feel put together even when you feel like a hot mess!  PS Isn’t this house the cutest?  When we were shooting here we tried to open the gate to get in so we could look in the house, but it wouldn’t open!  Kk have a good weekend!

Happy FriYAY everyone!  I hope you have fun plans this weekend!  I am super excited to just chill this weekend.  We haven’t had a weekend home in five weeks!  Today for my Friday’s Favorites I am going to talk about hats.  I am obsessed with hats.  They can really make an outfit look complete.  I am very OCD when I buy hats.  I can’t wear floppy brim hats.  The brim has to be stiff or it looks super funny on my head.  Every time I go into a store I have to try them on.  Majority of the time I know they will be floppy, but hey it never hurts to try.  I found these two hats at forever 21.  I am seriously so surprised how good Forever 21’s product is getting!  I’ve seen hats that look like this and they are $60-100.  I bought both of these for under $20 each!  What a steal!  They are exactly what I’ve been looking for too.  I need to go back and buy the other colors.  They for sure are a staple in my closet all year around!  Anyway… Have a good day!  Bye!

The 4th

Happy 4th of July weekend!  I hope you are going to go do something fun!  This post is going to be super short because I am headed boating right now yahoo!  I got up last week on the wake skate for the first time.  It’s only taken me 6-7 boating trips to get up.  I am hoping I can get up today!  Fingers crossed guys!  Anyway here is a little outfit inspo for you.  I got this dress at a Lularoe house party.  When I saw it I knew I had to use it for my 4th of July post and it’s super cute.  I love the hot air balloons on it!  Anyway…  Be safe this weekend and enjoy the fireworks, your friends and your families!

As If

Please tell me majority of you have seen the movie Clueless.  It really is one of my favorites.  I remember when it came out I would wear the mini skirts and the knee-high socks.  I even tried to recreate the box that Ty brings over to Cher’s house with all the Elton memorabilia in it.  Let’s just say mine sucked and was not at all cute!  I have this movie downloaded on my Iphone and I watch it on my flights when I travel for work.  I can sometimes be gone three to four times a month so I’m watching it a lot.  I am obsessed with this graphic tee from Kingdom and State.  If you don’t know I actually work for that amazing company.  I am the Wholesale Sales Rep.  When I saw this shirt was coming out for Spring/Summer I was so excited.  I have worn it multiple times and it will be on rotation in my closet all year.  I am super excited to wear it with jackets for the fall.  I know the first day of summer just happened, but I am always excited to dress for lower temperatures.  Anyway, right now if you go shop at Kingdom and States website you can get 30% off your order.  Just put promo code party23 in when you check out!  Hurry now and go to their site.  You only have one weeks to use this code!  Happy Friday peeps!

Friday’s Favorites

Hello!  It’s Friday so you know this post is going to be a Friday’s Favorites.  Today I am going to talk about little gold necklaces.  I am obsessed with little gold pendant necklaces.  You will always see me wearing one or two of them.  I love how dainty they are and they go with any outfit.  Of course I love Dogeared necklaces, but I have found a website that has necklaces like Dogeared for a lot less.  I have only given out this website one time to my BFF and it took me a little while to tell her.  It’s a gold mine!  It’s www.infinitine.com They have rings, necklaces, bracelets and earrings.  The stuff on the site is so cute, I got my wedding necklace from this website and a few rings.  You won’t regret ordering from this site.  The stuff is good quality and it’s super cute.  Now, hurry and go to that website and see what they have.  You won’t regret it!  Have a good weekend!

Friday’s Favorites

So I want you guys to get to know me a little better and know why I wear the things I do.  Today’s Friday’s Favorite post is going to be about aviator sunglasses.  I am 100% obsessed with aviator sunglasses.  I’m pretty sure you can tell because I wear them a lot in my pictures.  I think that shape is really flattering on my face.  As you can tell I’m obviously Asian and have a very round face and I don’t have a bone on the bridge of my nose.  Finding sunglasses to fit my face can be a challenge so when I find a pair I hold on to them and try not to ruin them.  I am very OCD about sunglasses.  I do not like when people try them on and I never share them with anyone.  It’s not because I don’t like you it’s because when you put them on it changes the shape of my sunglasses then they don’t fit my face anymore.  There’s a very likely chance that I will yell at you if you try on my sunglasses.  Don’t take it personally, I just am OCD.  Anyway… I hope you enjoy your day!
