Tourist Day

Hey everyone!

It's been a while since my last post. The past month has been super crazy! Doing some renovations on 2 of the bathrooms in the house so it's been pretty hectic. Then I had the flu which was a horrible and terrible experience. Now I'm all better and able to post outfits....YAY! 

My OOTD for being a tourist for a day in the beautiful city of San Francisco!

Happy Holidays Everyone!!! 

I can't believe Christmas is about 2 weeks away! Time to start shopping for presents! 

With the holiday season, I bet that many of us have many holiday parties to attend. Whether it be with friends or family, we all want to look our best. Below is a possible outfit inspiration for all of you!

Found this super cute dress on Black Friday at H&M on sale for only $10! I love myself a deal! Plus the dress looks like it has those christmas lights on it. I paired it with a Kate Spade bracelet, black tights and Turquoise ALDO heels.

For your Holiday Parties, Don't forget to bring a coat! This Cape coat from Nordstrom is perfect for any of your holiday dresses! 

Autumn Sun

Hey everyone! Hope everyone had a very Happy Thanksgiving weekend with family and friends. 

I wanted to share with you a couple of my purchases that I got during the Black Friday shopping madness! 

Black Friday Deals:

Talula Military Jacket (10% off at Aritzia) 

Striped Abercrombie & Fitch Dress (40% off at A&F outlet)

From my closet:

Enzo Angiolini Boots

Thrifted Dooney & Burke Purse

Rayban Wayfarer Sunglasses

I literally wore this outfit the day after I bought them. The Abercrombie & Fitch dress works perfectly with the green military inspired jacket from Aritzia. Which were both great deals. The dress was originally $40 but I got it for $25! The jacket was on sale for $100, but it was well worth it because I will get a lot of uses from it.

I'll post some Holiday Outfit ideas soon!

Simply Playful

Hello everyone!

Sorry for the lack of outfit posts lately. I'm adjusting my work and family schedule so I have some time to myself to take pics. Sometimes I wish I had a sibling that can take quick snapshots of my OOTD's but for right now, I'm depending on myself, my Canon camera and a tripod. 

Also, this is my FIRST outfit post with my newly cut hair! I absolutely love this new haircut. It's easy to manage and super low maintenance.

EVERY girl needs a simple black skirt. I especially LOVE this skirt from Pink Stripes. The bottom hem has a think leather border all around. Paired this skirt with a printed black/white chiffon tank top. 

Simple yet playful outfit for a date with that perfect someone :D 

Top: Forever21

Skirt: Pink Stripes

Heels: Calvin Klein

Cluth: ALDO

4 more days until Friday!! We can make it!

Weekend Brunch

Hello everyone! 

Sorry for the mini break from outfit posting. But I've been battling with allergies, work and spending time with my parents because today is my Dad's birthday! 

I wore this outfit this weekend while spending time with my mom and dad! We spent the whole weekend eating and shopping. Quality family time is always good for the soul <3 

I'm still obsessed with maxi skirts and denim shirts so I decided to pair them together. My favorite obsessions in one outfit..what's not to love? Also, I found this Trouve clutch at Nordstrom Rack for only $34, originally $89! What a deal! This weekend was definitely awesome!

Skirt: Sag Harbor Petite thrifted at Crossroads

The weekend is never long enough for all the things I need and want to do. Wish we all had 3 day weekends but we don't. Only 4 more days until Friday!!! We can make it :D

Lightly Dressed

Hello everyone!

This is going to be a SUPER quick post. Pairing a simple summer dress with a denim jacket is one of the easiest go-to outfits for anyone to wear. It will always be in fashion! I wore my white floral rosette espadrille heels to add that extra detail to an outfit.

*This whole outfit cost me $80

Denim Jacket: Fire Los Angeles 

Dress and Heels: H&M

Only 1 more day until our weekend begins! What are you gonna do?

Denim Verse

Hello everyone! Ever since I've purchased this denim shirt 2 weeks ago, it's safe to say that it is quickly becoming my go to shirt. I've already posted it in 3 posts (including this one).

Instead of pairing this shirt of jeans, I thought to myself "Why not pair it with my peach/beige striped dress?". I liked how it looked so I put on my mint green converse shoes to complete this casual look. 

Accessorized with a mix teal/peach/pink colors. This purse you see is a NEW ADDITION to my closet. My boyfriend got this for me as a birthday present! I absolutely love it! I've been looking for a big shoulder purse that can fit all my necessities. The color is perfect all year round also. 

A basic beige purse will last you a lifetime!

Shirt: Bella Dahl from Nordstrom Rack

Dress: H&M

Accessories: Forever21/Aldo

Purse: Michael Kors

Let me know your thoughts about this denim shirt over striped dress look :] Comment below! 

Btw, shout-out to my friend, Alex, for helping me think of a title for this post! I sent out a preview of this outfit on my instagram earlier asking for help with a post title. 

Alex commented: "Denim Verse cause you have a denim top and converse as your shoes :)"

Beach Birthday Outfit

Happy Tuesday everyone! 

So last Saturday I had a LAST MINUTE celebration for my birthday by going to the beach at nearby San Francisco with a few friends. I'm not a big party kinda girl. Last year, I had a big party, but I didn't really like it. This year, I had small celebrations with family and friends during the days before my birthday. Had dinner with my uncle, lunch/shopping with my parents and had a night-in with my boyfriend. 

Unfortunately, my boyfriend wasn't able to go to the beach. But I still had a blast. I must say that the weather on Saturday was absolutely perfect! Thank you Mother Nature for the perfect weather that day. I chose that Crissy Field would be the best place to go to because it has an amazing view of the Golden Gate bridge. 

View and weather from our spot at Crissy Field! 

I don't go to the beach as often I would like, but when I do get to go I try to enjoy it as much as possible. 

Usually SF weather is windy and cold, even when the sun is out. So I dressed appropriately for that weather. I'm obsessed with flowers! I have a lot of flower printed shirts and accessories. Now, I have flower printed shorts and pants! 

I wore these white jeans with blue flower print. From the moment I saw them, I knew I had to get them. It's like those jeans were calling my name! Paired them with a lightweight denim colored shirt. The color of the shirt plays very well with the color of the flower print jeans. 

I accessorized with my statement peach necklace and mixed it up with peach/teal bracelets. Does it look like I overdressed for the beach? I tend to do that from time to time, but it's my birthday and I think we all deserve to stand out (in a good way) on our birthdays :D 

This little bird decided to stop by near us. Guess he wanted to wish me a Happy Birthday haha.

So glad I decided to bring shorts! I changed to these flower printed shorts after 30 minutes of staying in the sun. I can't believe how hot it was in San Francisco that day. Usual SF weather is windy/cold, so I am so glad I packed a pair of shorts.

This post was kinda long, but I had a lot of pictures to take! Thank you for my friends for coming! I had so much fun. 

Hope everyone has a great rest of the week!
