The Classic White Shirt

Favorite item of the week: The classic white shirt.


Some staple wardrobe pieces that no woman should be without include: the little black dress, denim jeans, a trench coat, ballet flats, and a crisp classic white shirt. And my favorite white shirt is from Victoria's Secret.

Carrie Bradshaw Quote

"Later that day I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous."

The 4 F's

fashion, fragrance, food, & fresh music.

1. Fashion: I've made it a new rule to try to look my best everyday, and if possible, every second. And even if others my not agree with my style, the only thing that matters is that I feel confident and comfortable.

2. Fragrance: I cannot go through a day without perfume, and I believe that every women should invest in a bottle that is good enough to enchant those who are around her. The perfume that I currently wear are: Dolce & Gabbana's "Light Blue", Elizabeth Arden's "Provocative Woman", and Juicy Couture.

3. Food: I love good food. But what makes good food taste better is going out to eat with a group of friends because then you know that you paid good money for food, ambiance, and a great conversation.

4. Fresh music: Listening to mainstream music can be such a bore to my ears sometimes. Some of my favorite genres of music include indie/indie-pop, soul, folk-rock, acoustic, & classical. For new listeners, I recommend Ingrid Michaelson, Kate Nash, Feist, Lisa Loeb & Copeland.

Same look, different deal

A couple weeks ago I tried on dress at Forever21 that was cute, but not cute enough. The proportions of the dress were a bit odd, and the only thing that kept me from buying the dress were the skirt's inset pockets (which is rare to find at a good price). As much as I wanted to purchase this outfit, I knew that I could find a better deal if I bought the pieces separately and created a look of my own at a cheaper price.

Luckily this skirt also has pockets and I don't own much items in yellow so this would a great addition to my wardrobe!

Buying two pieces to create an outfit is more practical because you can wear the items more than once by mix/matching the pieces with other items in your closet. This should be common sense for those who like shopping & fashion.

High School Senior Autobiography

I was looking through my old xanga journal posts just to remind myself of how goofy I was..and then I found my high school senior autobiography that my best friend, Monica Mai, wrote of me. And she is probably going to kill me for posting this up.


Like rainbows on a stormy day,
Like sunsets where the evening lay,
Like sprinkles on an ice-cream sundae,
That's what friends are.

Long, long ago, back when wide-ruled paper was preferred and light-up shoes were the fashion trend, I met a girl in my second grade class with the charisma and character to light up any room. Her name was Krystle. As time passed, I grew to love and admire her for the plethora of traits she possessed. She's a very down-to-earth gal with a bubbly personality that people fall head over heels for. She has a genuine warmth that's complemented by her sweet heart and pure soul. She's a loyal friend who I can count on through thick and thin. Her creative genius continues to elude me; her kindness moves me. I highly value her opinion and treasure our friendship. Krystle is a truly good person who I am proud to know. She's someone I am honored to call my best friend.

Busy days are my favorite

Yesterday was one of the busiest days that I've experienced ALL YEAR. I know, how boring. It's because I've finally mastered this thing called time management. But I love to be on a constant time crunch and rushing myself to get to one place to another, like a back-to-back schedule. It's weird because a lot of people complain about being busy. But I think it's fun, it's almost as fun as playing a game that requires you to complete certain tasks in a short amount of time. Just like how there are so many things that you have to balance in life: family, friends, school, work, hobbies, etc. I feel like life is a challenging game sometimes, and if you know me well...then you should know that I love to play games.

For Love 21

I don't know about you, but I've been waiting for the day For Love 21 would launch their store online. For Love 21 is an accessories only store owned by their sister store, Forever 21. I'm amazed by the large selection of beautiful jewelry that they have at affordable prices. Right now my eye is on the Mantana and Manhattan cuff watch. I was also surprised to find a decent ring watch on there, which is rare to find in Orlando stores nowadays.

I Believe

I believe in pink
I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner
I believe in being strong
when everything seems to be going wrong
I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls
I believe tomorrow is another day
& I believe in miracles.

Sex & The City

friendship, fashion, love.

The movie was AMAZING and everything I hoped for. <3 Though I think that the movie would be more appreciated by strong fans of the series, like myself. As always, I loved watching the fashion aspect of the movie.
