New Year's Eve

In my mom's culture, it is customary on New Year's Eve to clean the whole house so that the new year is started on a good note. So tomorrow (well, later today), I'll be watching Footballer's Wives -- the ultimate guilty pleasure -- and cleaning up. Taking this tradition less literally though, I'm going to take tomorrow as a day to take care of myself: bubble bath, pampering -- the whole nine. Considering I'm not a girly girl in the least, this should be interesting...


Anyway, I wish all of you a Happy New Year. And if you'll be out popping bottles like I wish I'd be doing, do yourself a favor: be safe and call a cab to get home!

P.S. Thank you all for reading my blog. You guys make it all worth it! :)

P.P.S. I know I've been having a lot of short text-only posts. I promise I'll be back to my usual picture-heavy posts in the new year.

Le Grand Sigh.

Oh, pretty bags,





Why must you tempt me?

Reunited...

and it feels so good.

My friend G brought my Alice Temperley x Target dress back. It's probably my favorite piece of clothing right now. So happy to have it back!

Pre-Fall Collections

Here are some looks from the Pre-Fall collections that I really liked.

Doo.Ri

There's something mesmerizing about this print. It's abstract, but it reminds me of a floral. I wish I could have this dress!

I hate the pants, but the sheer glittery camisole is tops. I can see this layered with another sheer top, or peeking out underneath a blazer.

Burberry Prorsum

I adore this look, from head to toe.

The only trench coat I've ever wanted. I think those are feathers...

This is the first time I've ever been interested in Burberry Prorsum. This collection has the perfect mix of edginess and wearability. I can honestly see myself wearing these looks head to toe, and I appreciate that. It's not that crazy looks don't have their place -- rather, they force you to expand the way you think about clothing -- but sometimes you just want a little "easy fashion."
