Bling ding a ding ling!

bling, OOTD, statement necklace

Why am I not tiring of statement necklaces? Why does it have this hold over me that every time I see a cute piece in the store my palms get sweaty? What kind of sorcery is this? 😛 But the good thing is I can be a little lax about the outfit I choose to wear because the necklace does the work for me 😉 So more power to it! Who’s with me on this? 😉 

Ahoy Autumn!

Tags

autumn, beige, black, Fall, taupe

It’s officially the 1st day of fall and what better way to pay homage than wear blacks, beiges and pose in front of a beat up wooden fence 😛 And if you still felt like trying some more, maybe paint your nails taupe like I did? 😉

 

Pumped Up!

Tags

BCBG, pumps, purple, shopping

It is that time of the year where everyone’s selling boots… which can mean only one thing – Beautiful pumps which otherwise my purse wouldn’t be able to afford are suddenly up for grabs 😛  Yaay! So I am now a proud owner of BCBG pointed purple pumps! So that’s two things to be pumped about.. this and the weekend of course!:D Have a wonderful friday you’ll!

 

Hi5 Mondays!

blazer, cailyn lip gloss, danish cookies, Fall, financier, macaron, stir fried tofu

Hello World!

Half of monday is gone…  so that’s good!:D The rest should be relatively painless. I am totally waiting for friday to take off on one of my little trips 😀 Meanwhile here are my 5 highlights from last week 🙂

1. Made some stir fried tofu with a soy/apricot jelly/ sriracha glaze! I did lick my fingers AND THE PAN after 😀 2. It’s blazer weather you’ll! 🙂 3.  For once I have a biscuit full of cookies instead of sewing supplies 😛 4. I love me some lip balm; obviously I lurrvee lipstick, but I am not as excited about lip gloss for some reason! But when this came in my ipsy bag last week I felt like I was ready for fall 😛5. Scarfed down a giant  passionfruit macaron from Financier. Sorry not sorry! 😉 Here’s sending everyone some positivity… have a wonderful week!

Cut it short!

button down, Inspiration, OOTD, Shorts, silk

With the weather getting slightly cooler here, I am wondering if summer is truly over or if this is another one of New york weather’s sick games.. the mean mean place! 😛 I used to belong to the camp that thinks shorts are work-inappropriate but when you know summer’s running out on you, you have little choice than to wear them while you can. I wore this printed pair with a silk button down hoping that maybe I could fool everyone into thinking I could be going to work rather than a vacation!? Just maybe? 😀

Hi5 Mondays!

baked falafels, dexter, goldwater, kimchi fries, NYFW, thrift

Hey you guys!

I had a particularly hard time dragging myself out of bed today.. aargh! But I am hoping it gets better from here on. Let’s keep at it, maye be it will all make sense someday 😉 Here’s what I did last week.

1. New York Fashion Week has begun and I’ve been busy trying to keep up 🙂 2.My love for falafels are well documented and obviously they aren’t the healthiest but I can indulge guilt free when I bake them 😀3. Did some thrifting at Gold water. This place is tiny but has a lot of cool things so if thrifting floats your boat, I say check this place out! 🙂 4. I tried Kimchi Fries at K-Town for the first time. It is a little different but never the less yummmy! 5. I am very late to this game.. but I started watching dexter and I can’t stop! Which is maybe why I was complaining about it being a monday?:P Have a wonderful week ahead 🙂

Pilin’ on some powder blue!

Tags

Inspiration, OOTD, Pastels, powder blue

Easter is long gone so I probably have no business wearing powder blue, but obviously you’ll know how much I love playing by the rules :P….  plus pastels are too pretty to pass up right now. I bought this boxy yet delicate lace scalloped top a while ago and love how easy it is to style! My only gripe- it is sheer and I hate being bothered enough to wear a tank underneath 😛 Also in case you haven’t noticed this was taken right before my hair cut and hence the loong haiiirr… throw back thursday if you will 😉

Did some shopping… Fall’s round the corner you guys!Can you believe it? :O4. Had some delish Blue berry lemon ricotta custard at shake shack!5.  Caught Sin City 2!
