<br />
I especially love Japanese Nail Art, because of how diverse, intricate and creative it is. Even though I love getting my nails done, I rarely do so, since I want to prevent my nails from thinning and growing unhealthy. It's been months since I've last had my nails done, so I think it's time to start gathering inspiration! :) My friend recently had her nails done, which really stirred up my cravings. hehe<br />
<br />
With that said, I spent over an hour yesterday finding inspiration. Haha I've nailed it down to 15 designs, and I thought I'd share my finds with you guys! Let me know if you like any of them! <i>Note: My style is all over the place. Some designs are colorful, some are dull, some are complex and some are simple. I guess that's a good thing, cause that means there's something for everyone!</i> :) All of the pictures are from Instagram. I made sure to include the nail artists' Instagram accounts in the screenshots, so go ahead and follow them for more of their work!<br />
<br />
Alright, enough said, let's begin!<br />

1. I'm usually the type to go for dark colors; however, I was drawn to these set of nails! The color contrast of gold and nude is so pretty! What I especially love about these nails are the STARS of course! How adorable! </div>

2. What a pretty green monochromatic color scheme! I've actually never had my nails done green before. The closest I've had to green was teal/turquoise. Green's one of my favorite colors, but it's pretty hard finding a shade of green professional enough to wear to work. </div>

3. OMG So pretty! Remember how I said earlier that I usually go for dark colors? That's simply because dark colors best compliment my skin tone. A gold accent on top of dark green is so pretty! I actually wouldn't mind all my nails with the partially painted dark green and gold stripe design.</div>

4. Another nude color design. This is definitely the most work-appropriate design so far! Again, I'm loving the gold accent against the nude. This design is even more simple than inspiration #1.</div>

5. Okay, so by now, I'm sure you guys can see some sort of pattern. *cough cough gold and nude* *cough cough* Haha to be fair, this is more like pink & beige against gold! The design on the ring finger is my favorite! It's like a combination of opal and gold flakes!</div>

6. Well what do we have here? I guess we broke the nude and gold color pattern, cause here's nude and silver! :) How simple yet elegant! I can totally imagine someone wearing these at a wedding! </div>

7. What a great balance between simplicity and avante-garde. The design looks great, but another option would be to substitute the nude with black. I guess it depends on whether I'm going for a softer or bolder look! </div>

8. Imagine these as a manicure! The designer played with complimentary colors (blue and yellow) and balanced the design with neutrals (taupe and white). Hmm, maybe I should go for this look. I've never had my nails done in yellow, taupe or silver before! Since I don't get my nails done that often, maybe I should go for something super different from the norm. Thoughts? </div>

9. AWWWW how cute! So sweet! Pink and green is my favorite color combination, but for some reason, I rarely wear those colors together. Not sure why, but I feel so happy looking at these nails, especially the middle nail with all the pink and green stones! </div>

10. The color combination reminds me of inspiration #8. The colors are more dull though, and the design looks completely different. I really like the color combination. What caught my eye were the white and black flower designs. I believe those are stickers right? How cool! </div>

11. I... love everything about this!!! I don't even know where to begin. As cheesy as this sounds, I actually love the combination red, white and blue. So patriotic of me right?! And can we just take a moment to appreciate the gold accents?! Love it! Also, I love floral patterns! This one's perfect, it's so me! LOL whatever that means! :P</div>

13. Even though I don't like purple, this purple is my favorite shade of purple LOL! Since it's Spring, I don't think I'll be going for this. I actually like the overall design, especially the nails with the abstract art! I think I'll save this for fall though. </div>

14. Here's another work-appropriate one! LOL and no surprise, it carries my favorite combination, gold and nude. This is actually a really practical design. First of all, the design is so versatile for all occasions. Second of all, because of the clear to nude color gradient, I can probably wear these for weeks without people noticing my nails growing out. This simple design is so pretty; take a look at the ring finger! It kinda reminds me of Christmas lights or a dream catcher. </div>

I can't believe it's 2018 already!<br />
<br />
So a few weeks ago, my boyfriend and I watched our first sunset together at Sunset View Park in Signal Hill, CA. <3 What a great way to end the year. The entire experience was so special to me. My boyfriend and I have been dating for years now, and we've never watched a sunset together. haha crazy right?! Well, there's always a first time for everything. :) We had such an amazing time! The site was impeccable and absolutely breathtaking! SO ROMANTIC! LOL<br />

I'm so glad we ended the year watching the sun set together at Sunset View Park. Watching the sunset was kind of a symbolization of how 2017 was coming to an end. We didn't plan on watching the sun set for that reason, but I'm glad how everything worked out. The environment was so tranquil, and I was able to oversee LA and Long Beach at a distance. Random Fact... but in 2017, hiking became a hobby of mine. A reason why I enjoy hiking so much, is because I can remove myself from the busy life back in the city, and just feel relaxed and at peace in the arms of nature. There's something about embracing the sunlight and looking out at the cities in a distance, that provided the same relaxed and at peace feeling.<br />

The sun ended up setting right before 5PM. haha I was pretty surprised by how fast the sun disappeared! Afterwards, my boyfriend and I decided to walk around the area, while waiting for the night sky to appear. The houses in the neighborhood were very new and HUGE! I wonder if it's expensive living in Signal Hill. I feel like it would be; however, I did see some electric towers and oil pumps though, so.... not sure! haha I'm getting side tracked! Okay, back to topic! We stayed till night time, and the scenery was just as beautiful if not even more impressive.<br />

<br />
I mean... WOW right?!<br />
<br />
If you live around the area or if you're planning a visit to the Long Beach, LA or OC area, I would definitely pay Sunset View Park at Signal Hill a visit. It's a place that would make great date or a hangout with your family and friends! Again, I'm so glad I went!<br />
<br />
Happy New Year everyone! I did so much self reflecting and came up with a long list of resolutions for 2018. It's a new year, so let's keep all those negative memories in 2017 and have a brand new beginning!<br />
<br />

You know... there are so many aspects that make up a person's life. I'm talking about family, friends, hobbies, career, adventures, haha you get the gist.<br />
<br />
Well, the "hobbies" part of my life has seriously disintegrated into almost nothing since I entered college. I remember "back in the days" I used to be so much more adventurous. I actually had hobbies, the 2 main ones being dancing and singing. Prior to college, I actually danced for 10 years and participated in my school choir. For choir, I traveled throughout California and out of country to compete. I dedicated so much time and effort into these 2 hobbies, and I enjoyed them so much, especially singing. I wasn't by any means amazing at singing, but something about it just gave me so much fulfillment. Once I graduated from high school, I literally dropped both hobbies to focus in school. I was so determined to excel in my courses and begin my career, that I left myself without a hobby. I didn't have a hobby for at least 5 years. Isn't that crazy? It wasn't until recently that I decided to make a change, and I found a hobby, FLOWER ARRANGEMENT! <3<br />
<br />
That hobby came spontaneously, and I'm honestly not sure how it came about. I might be wrong, but I think Christina and I wanted to plan something fun for our 10 years friendship anniversary.<i> LOL haha we're cute, I know!</i> :) I'm pretty sure it was me who brought the flower arrangement idea up. I mean... I've always loved flowers, and with my DIY nature, I kind of wanted to try flower arranging out. Also, since it was our 10 years annivesary, I thought it'd be cute if we arranged flowers and gave them to one another. With that said, we went to the LA Flower District over the weekend to buy flowers.<br />
<br />
Okay enough talking, here's the final result!<br />

I absolutely love it! haha I know I know... I made it, so of course I love it. I have to say... I was extremely daring with all the colors and textures. I literally walked into the flower district with zero inspiration, and I'm pretty surprised with how it turned out. I ended up with a very festive fall bouquet. I think it might be a bit dramatic for casual gift giving, and it might be a little too exotic for Valentine's Day, but I can seriously see it as a beautiful center piece for a Fall Wedding, Thanksgiving Dinner Party, or a movie premier or something. OMG, for some reason, I think it totally works for a Jurassic Park movie premier!<br />

<br />
<br />
Although I love flowers, I'm actually pretty clueless when it comes to flower names. I'll try my best to search up the names of each plant I used, but definitely leave a comment to correct me if I'm wrong! :)<br />
<br />
Alright, so in the bouquet are:<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>1) <span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit;">Roses</span></b><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit;"><b>2) Purple Statice (Limonium)</b></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit;"><b>3) Coffee Beans</b></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit;"><b>4) Baby Breathes</b></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit;"><b>5) Leather Leaf Fern</b></span><br />
<br />
I hope I got all the names right!<br />
<br />
I seriously had so much fun making my first flower arrangement. So much fun that I discovered my hobby! Yay! haha It's actually a pretty big deal to me, since I haven't had a hobby for so many years! :) I've made 2 bouquets so far, so I'll try to share the other one in another entry. Seriously can't wait to make my next bouquet!<br />
<br />
Thanks for taking the time to read my post. I'd love to know your hobby, so feel free to comment and let me know! :) Have a great day!<br />

So.... it's passed midnight... and I can't believe I'm doing this.<br />
<br />
Doing what?<br />
<br />
Writing a post after being away for 3 years.<br />
<br />
It's so crazy, I literally don't know where to begin. hmm... let's see, 3 years ago I graduated from college and after trying a few occupations, I finally officially started my career as a graphic designer. Why did I stop blogging? I'm really not sure if there's a solid answer. Perhaps it's cause I was so lost in growing up and becoming an adult, that I just needed to step away and find myself? Maybe I relied a lot on my blog for the wrong reason, and I just needed to stay away and focus on something else? I'm not really sure of the answer, but the longer I stopped posting, the more intimidated I felt to blog again. Does that even make sense?<br />
<br />
There were definitely times in the past when I wanted to blog again. I remember a few times when I started writing a blog entry, and just stopped in the middle of writing and just pressed the "close" button... Not sure what got into me, but I just got an itch to write tonight. I actually miss blogging from time to time. I miss being able to document those happy memories and look back on pictures and read my thoughts from the past.<br />
<br />
I'm pretty sure I'll end up posting this entry... but where from there on? Obviously, I have many more responsibilities than I did in the past, but hopefully I can use this platform as a place to once again document my experiences. Hopefully, it'll be a nice place to escape from my responsibilities, instead of place that I find intimidating.<br />
<br />
Good Night.<br />
<br />

Did you guys have an amazing Summer? (well..technically the season's not over yet)</div>
<br />
I sure did! =) Though I'm no longer a full time student who has Summer vacation... I still managed to make my Summer very plentiful and exciting! haha<br />

One of the places that I explored this Summer was Koreatown!! It's not the first time that I have been there, but in the past, what I did was more so stay in a plaza for the entire visit and just end the journey there. This time I actually got the opportunity to walk around the streets and really get a feel of Koreatown! =)<br />

SELFIE TIME!!! (<i>Obviously!</i>) This is me on my way to Koreatown! I wore pretty light makeup that day. I decided to go a little thicker with the eyeliner and balanced that out with some nudish pink lips! (<i>Sorry about the messy hair btw...=)</i> )</div>

The amount of times I have visited Koreatown does not even add up to 5 fingers, so I still felt quite foreign to the place. haha My friend and I had quite a headache trying to find the places we planned on going to, and ended up parking on the curb locating where we were. Despite the hassle, we were rewarded with the accompany of such pretty scenery and buildings! =)<br />

The first place I visited - <b>Madang Plaza Shopping Mall</b><br /></div>
<div>
This is going to be repetitive, but as said in the caption above, the first placed I visited was the Madang Plaza! The plaza was extremely pretty and gave a very welcoming impression. It was however, a little smaller than I imagined, but nonetheless, I still enjoyed my time there.</div>

This is an overall picture of what one side of Madang Plaza looks like. (<i>Definitely does not do the plaza justice lol</i>) The plaza kinda reminded me of a school campus, and where I stood would be the courtyard. There was a Daiso, Paris Baguette, Curry House, CGV Cinema, and many other stores that I don't know the name of: restaurants, cosmetic stores, boba tea houses & book stores!</div>

The exterior and entrance was completely made of glass. Each glass panel featured amazing decals of the cafe's drinks and desserts, which made going in even more irresistible.. especially on a hot Summer day! </div>

I loved and still love the overall ambiance of this place; it gave a super low-key yet cool vibe! The entire interior dominated with two types of textures: cement & wood. I think wood was the accent that completed the whole ambiance though... there were wooden bookshelves, walls, chairs, tables, counters... you name it! =) </div>

And that's the end of the journey and Koreatown Galleria! As you can see I didn't end up buying that much stuff! <i>Fun Fact: I was debating on whether to show you guys this picture cause I look so awkward in it..but then I decided.. "Why Not?".</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So that basically concludes my adventure in Koreatown, Los Angeles! Maybe it's been too long since I've posted an adventure entry...but I think this is by far the longest one yet! Truthfully, there were slightly frustrating times that day, since we were unfamiliar with streets and parking. Nonetheless all of it was part of a valuable experience, and I felt happy to have established so many wonderful memories! </div>

<b>The Fault in Our Stars</b> by John Green.... how should I put this? I've never been a huge fan of </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
reading.. but this book really got me hooked. Instead of taking forever to finish this novel, it took me a compilation of a probably around 5-7 hours to finish. I'm not sure if that's considered fast or slow...but for someone who's never enjoyed reading, it definitely says something about how amazing the book a was to me. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I'm not sure how I should even begin, because how heartfelt and amazing this book had me feel is beyond words explanation. Just in a nutshell this novel tells of a love story between two people, a 16 year old cancer patient, Hazel Grace Lancaster, and a 17 year old cancer survivor, Augustus Waters, who has an amputation. I'm not going to spoil any further details regarding this story, but what I will advise you guys to do is keep a box of Kleenex next to you for both the book and the movie. LOL</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Anyway, I used to be really sensitive as a kid and always cried during touching moments in movies, but I slowly grew out of that side of me as I aged. I would have never expected that both the book and the movie would hit home so hard that I would end up downing 5 pieces of tissues in lightening speed. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
What's so amazing about this book? Not only was it beautifully written and composed, but the story itself is extremely inspirational. There were numerous of times that I had to step away mentally to reflect on my life and my own relationships. It's so easy to have complaints, to be unsatisfied, to worry, to be distraught, to be angered, and to take people and things for granted. Sometimes we are so busy focusing on the negatives that we don't take the time to celebrate life... to realize how lucky we are. Many like me grew up with a healthy body, free from any diseases. We get upset and stressed over so many things, small or big to us, but we don't take the time to realize that "<i><b>hey, at least we have another chance</b></i>." Some people like Hazel Grace can't even live without relying on an oxygen tank to help her breath, someone like Hazel Grace who has no idea whether today is going to be her last day of living because her lungs are going to fail on her. However, it's a character like Hazel Grace who really opened up my eyes and really really really reminded me of how amazing my life is, and how lucky I am to be able to walk, run, laugh, and just live day to day without any physical difficulties. She as well as everyone in the world who suffer remotely what she goes through in the story are amazing... people like her celebrate life not morne about death. They focus on the moments they have, not the moments they have lost... they focus on the quality of life not the quantity of it. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I've seen and learned so much from the book: Positivity, Heroism, Appreciation, Loyalty, Love, Faith, and Selflessness. I never knew a book...even a fictional one, would have such a large effect towards me. It definitely taught me a load and I feel like I've grown a little just in the matter of a few weeks. I never understood those who could read books over and over again, but I think I can after reading <b>The Fault in Our Stars</b>. </div>

My Bestie and I watched<b> The Fault in Our Stars</b>, the movie, together a few days ago, and I think it was wonderfully composed. It's quite inevitable to fit all 300+ pages worth of info into a less than 2 hour film, but the movie was absolutely outstanding. It was easy to understand and definitely included all the important parts of the book to it! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I had a blast reading this book, and if you're someone who would enjoy an inspirational life and love story, then this book is definitely for you! I would definitely recommend both the movie and book to everyone out there, but would recommend reading the book first because I think the movie would be extra meaningful and amazing if you knew the meaning behind it beforehand. =) </div>

<div>
Alrightie! Well that's it! I hope you guys enjoyed the blogpost and will officially be signing off for the night! =) Good Night! </div>

Well, I sure have one! </span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I've always liked Lauren Conrad (LC) the most </span>among<span style="font-family: inherit;"> the cast members during her days in the Hills. Besides the exciting drama that drew me into the reality show, something else that grabbed my attention was everyone's fashion sense, especially LC's! I always found her style youthful, feminine and sophisticated at the same time! It's been a while since she's had her clothing line, Lauren Conrad, but it wasn't until last year's Black Friday that I first stumbled across her clothing at Kohl's. I've never been a huge fan of Kohl's (not sure why), but due to the fact that I had work the next morning, Kohl's was one of my only options.. and boy am I glad that I went there! </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I ended up getting a pair of cute heart print jeans that fit like they were customized for my body shape and height, and a pair of leggings that felt amazing and have just the right amount of thickness to prevent panties and panty-lines from showing through! My love for LC's brand slowly grew, and I feel the urge to buy something from her collections each time I visited Kohl's (like yesterday!). </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Though Lauren Conrad pieces aren't too pricey, I'm not the type of person to like to splurge on clothing too often, so I've come with the perfect solution!!.. which is to buy one or at most two pieces from her clothing lines each month! Now that's not too ridiculous right? lol =) I have these plans all in my head right now... but who knows if I'll even proceed with any of them! </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Anyway, since I'm giving myself the budget that's enough for window shopping, I've decided to share some of my favorite Lauren Conrad pieces with you guys! =) So let the fun begin! </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;"><i><b><u>Dresses & Rompers</u></b></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">I've always loved florals and subtle polka dots; therefore, not surprisingly.... all the dresses and the only romper I've chosen follow one of the two patterns! I love how fun, girly, yet classy these dresses look! They look extremely appropriate to be worn either on a casual date out or even to an afternoon tea party! =) </span></div>

<div>
<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">In my opinion, besides a statement piece necklace or a pair of cute shoes, an amazing skirt is a key item that instantly makes any casual top look a million times more exciting. Skirts definitely make it to my list of top 10 staples! The skirt below looks absolutely amazing, and one thing I find so unique about it is the beautiful water color-like images printed throughout the dress. I actually saw it in the store yesterday, and it looks just as pretty if not prettier!</span></div>

Besides dancing... which I've done so for literally half my life, I've always dreaded any type of activity that would lead to a break of sweat! LOL<br />
<br />
I stopped dancing once I entered college, and seriously for over two years... I stopped being active and I guess kind of let myself go in that aspect of my life. It was this year that I decided to get myself back together. I couldn't stand the fact of me being out of breath after walking up two sets of stairs.. and yep, I decided to take a turn in my life. I felt extremely out of shape, and when I say out of shape, I don't mean how many pounds I weighed or what clothing size I fitted into. It was none of that... I just felt like I needed to become healthier.. and it just didn't make sense for a 21 year old to be physically less capable than my own grandma haha. Since my realization, my bestie and I have been exercising everyday during the weekend, and honestly... I'm surprised how in love I am with exercising. Haha and she's excited for me too! My best friend has always been one of the most athletic people I have known, and for the longest time I wasn't compatible with her in that aspect.. so it excites us both that we now have a hobby in common!<br />
<br />
I always hear people talk about how amazing if feels having that adrenaline rush, and how they feel more clear minded and less stressed after exercising. For someone who's always dreaded exercising.. I have never really felt that way. Perhaps I did during the days I danced, but I felt that dancing was an art that I fell in love with rather than a stress reliever and health booster at that time for me. <br />
<br />
It's been 5 months since I've been getting myself back together, and I seriously can't be happier about it! I'm finally able to understand the feeling people get when they get an adrenaline rush, and how effective exercising is. My exercise routine includes stretching, jump roping (500-1,000), running, and haha Blogilattes! (<i>If you guys don't know what Blogilattes is... it's actually a youtube channel started by an amazing youtuber named Cassey Ho. She does these amazing work-out videos, and they're super duper fun and easy to follow along with!... well some of them are =P</i>)<br />
<br />
Work and life in general can be super stressful at times, but I've found a new hobby that I love that makes me feel better about myself and helps take away my stress! I'm so glad to have a bestie who pushes me and gets me going, and I can't wait to work out with her until we're old and wrinkly! LOL haha you know who you are! =)<br />
<br />
For those who are stressed... try exercising! It's a piece of cake for some people, but if you're like me it'll take some determination... but it'll help relieve your stress though, I'm positive! =)Wing Y. http://www.blogger.com/profile/04634476446377571892noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1673958430763476030.post-38829575945652092542014-04-13T22:43:00.000-07:002014-04-13T22:43:38.785-07:00My Take On: Organizing MakeupTo be completely frank, I've never been a huge makeup junkie in my 21 years of existence. It has nothing to do with my environment... cause I grew up in a school where girls had eyeliner on since middle school. I've always been quite conservative and never really thought much about makeup. It was after college that I began to expose myself to the makeup world, and I guess now I can say that I've officially joined the "makeup band wagon" LOL! =) <br />
<br />
I'm not overly obsessed with makeup, so I don't always find myself seeking for the latest designer or drug store products to try. I only have one face after all, so it's understandable that I only have a conservative amount of makeup right? hehe<br />
<br />
Anyway, getting to the point, I recently found myself a little frustrated with how messy my makeup is. I share a bathroom and it just isn't right for me to hog all of it and clutter other people's space with makeup just because of my lack of organization. I came to the conclusion that I needed some type of organizer and wallah!!... I found the perfect one from T.J. Maxx! Score!<br />

I love the way the organizer looks, and I love how it is designed! I'm sure you guys can tell, but I'll say it anyways... this is a 3 layer organizer that has opened slots aligned in the back for I guess brushes and any products that in this case.. "I" want standing! =) </div>

Out of my makeup and makeup applicators, I had to sort out the ones that I wear more often apart from the ones that I wear like... never. And after about 15-20 minutes this is the transformation that I am super duper proud of!....</div>

So yah! I guess that pretty much concludes to all the essentials I have in my makeup organizer! I had such a fun time working on this project! Not only did it help me with the obvious...keeping organized, it also opened my eyes to how much makeup I didn't used. I ended up storing the rest of my makeup away, and threw ones that I've had for way.... too long in the trash! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

</div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">What do you usually wear to work? My style varies~ Everyone at work is pretty laid back, so instead of needing to dress all "office lady" like, I get to play with colors and patterns. Yay! Despite that, I usually stick with darker colors, cause at the end of the day, I am working at a professional environment and there's no reason for me to stick out too much with vibrant colors! =) </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">So... here's one of the outfits I have worn to work in: </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBSmJmnd49Rk_cm8kmMYF4ZS-MmWRqshgILSvtc47Sm5iNgovCBrwLq1JWo7effs7zaBTSP1NvB1HTk4JnFzCBhg-I5AQjmQ7YIurRCimmbbuI37bIgWptG0klJbHUKAYy3eFsW5VFPxs/s1600/%2528Use+102%2529DSC03090.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBSmJmnd49Rk_cm8kmMYF4ZS-MmWRqshgILSvtc47Sm5iNgovCBrwLq1JWo7effs7zaBTSP1NvB1HTk4JnFzCBhg-I5AQjmQ7YIurRCimmbbuI37bIgWptG0klJbHUKAYy3eFsW5VFPxs/s1600/%2528Use+102%2529DSC03090.jpg" height="640" width="448" /></span></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Out of the many outfits I've worn to work, this is probably one of my favorite! First of all, I'd like to mention how much I love emerald and purple together. I think green and purple are one of the prettiest color combinations that exist, and I think that the shade of green and purple I am wearing match well in a way that they give off a sense of sophistication. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />

</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The top I am wearing is a two piece 100% silk blouse from a brand named Tess. I love how light the fabric feels. It's currently Spring right now, and I think this blouse definitely goes perfectly with the semi-hot/chilly Cali weather! =) As for pants, I'm wearing one of my favorite pair of geometric like trousers from Forever21.

Though it was just a small part of the 8 minute-ish speech, I was curious enough to go home and youtube it! In case you have watched it yet, here it is:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/jIN-2UW0hVU?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I don't think Selena knew how inspirational her speech would be... but it really impacted me and got me thinking about myself. Let's start with high school... I used to have a lot of friend during high school... but even back then, I realized that among all of my "friends", I found it tough to figure out who to eat lunch with. Weird right? I mean... if a person has a lot of friends, shouldn't it be easy choosing whom to eat with during lunch? Well that wasn't the case for me.... Since I've graduated high school and college, I've lost more then half the friends I used to have. Sometimes it really surprises me how many old friends I've lost, and of course just thinking about it brings me down sometimes. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
A moral of Selena's speech is to be you... to be none other than YOU. Selena mentioned that who you are is who you surround yourself with and I can't agree more. Just cause I got along with people, didn't mean that those friends were for me. I was trying to find myself back then, and deep deep deep down in my heart I think I kind of knew that those friends weren't for me... but I just didn't see it yet. That's exactly why it was hard for me to figure out who sit with during lunch, and that's exactly why those people and I don't contact each other anymore. It's not the amount of friends I have that matter, it's the quality of the friendship of the friends I still keep in touch with that matters. Though a lot of people came and left my life, I'm so so so thankful for those who stayed. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Never try to be someone you're not. It's always good to improve yourself, but it's not good to change yourself just to please everyone around you... cause at the end of the day everyone's going to feel happy except for you. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I really like Selena Gomez, but I've never been a huge fan of hers. What she said in her speech really inspired me and got me thinking about myself in the past, present, and future. I've been wondering why I've lost contact with my friends, and today I've truly found my answer, it's because during these few years, I've grown up, I've found myself, and I've been "me". </div>

Do you guys have a pair of go-to heels? A pair that seems to match with everything and feels amazingly comfortable in? Well.. I sure do!<br />

These were my go-to heels for the passed 3 years! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I got my first pair of Franco Sarto Snake Skin heels when I was in college, and it was seriously love at first sight. I've had a history of buying cute heels that were way too formal to be worn casually, and way too tall for me to walk comfortably in. So how did I end up finding my go-to heels? Nordstrom! I remember shopping with my mom a few years back at Nordstrom. I was browsing around the shoe section without any thought of buying shoes, and found myself eyeing these pair of heels. It's hard to tell from my picture above, but the shoes in real life are much lighter in color and "were" absolutely gorgeous. I bought the heels and I think it's one of the best purchases made! I've gotten a handful of compliments on these heels throughout the years, and they are hands down the most easy-to-match and comfortable heels I've ever owned! These are the most worn heels I've ever had. I've worn them so much that the outside and inside of the heels are beginning to come apart. After being with me for these few years, and having gone through such a long journey with me... I've finally made the decision to let them go and say goodbye to them. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I know it's kind of awkward to miss a pair of shoes..but these are a pair that mean a lot to me and ones that I genuinely made a lot of memories with! I don't think I'll ever feel the same way about a pair of shoes as I do for these, but I've been on the search lately for a pair that can take place of these shoes after they are gone. After a few months of casual searching, I've finally found a pair, which... I actually bought. And dun dun dun dun dunnn~~~ </div>

These new pair of heels are from Enzo Angiolini's line (What a coincidence, I also found them at Nordstrom!), and I am absolutely heads over heels for them! I love how the heels are on the shorter end...but not short enough to be little kitten heels. I think its rusty salmon color is absolutely beautiful, and I can see it matching with so many colors!! You guys can't see this in the picture, but the bottom soles are a wooden pattern which adds so much class and elegance to the heels! I absolutely adore the cute cut-outs and straps, and I cannot wait to wear these to work as well as during my casual days off work! =) </div>

Shoes come and go, and there are some shoes that hold a deeper meaning in my heart that others. I'm going to really miss my old go-to heels, but I'm excited to create new memories with my new ones! (<i>Cross my fingers that they're as comfortable as the old ones~</i>) </div>

</div><div style="text-align: left;">It's common for Californians to say that the Golden State rarely gets that cold during the Winter... and I can't agree more with that saying this Winter. For the first time in my life... I experienced Christmas at nearly 80 degrees. While others get to experience a white Christmas, I find myself dressing the same amount clothing I would dress during the Summer... interesting huh? <br />
<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Anyway, what styles have you guys been enjoying lately? To my surprise I've actually been really loving the street style. I don't know why... maybe it's because I'm always very conservatively dressed and covered at work... that it's nice being able to throw on some comfy casuals and still feel awesome and stylish during the weekends! =) </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Today, I went for a laid-back street look! I started my outfit off with a basic long sleeve shirt from Charlotte Russe, and matched it with a pair of high waisted denim shorts that I thrifted from Goodwill earlier this Summer (seriously my favorite thrift-find! =)). To add some color to my outfit, I threw on common red, white, and blue plaid button down that I recently did some revamping to. (Removed long sleeves & shortened) </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I actually felt amazing in this outfit! Throughout this half a year, I've been going for a loose top & tight bottom look... and after hiding any slight curve of mine for so long, it feels nice to finally wear an outfit that is more form fitting! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">2013 is coming to an end, and it's quite mind-boggling to think that a new year will be starting in the matter of a few hours! I've learned and experienced so much this year... it's pretty ridiculous. But nonetheless, I believe everything happens for a reason. Whether it's something good that happened or something bad that came about... I'm positive that all that I've experienced made me into a stronger and better person! I hope everyone cherishes their last few moments of 2013, and prepare yourselves for a new beginning! =) </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I started my outfit off, with an old-school dress that I bought from Forever21 a few years back! =) I love everything about this dress!!!...

Writing a blog post feels so great! I hope everyone has a really relaxing night! I'm going to relax for the rest of the night, and perhaps even watch a korean drama! =) hehe </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Good Night! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

(Hangout at Downtown Alhambra)<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">Good Morning!!!! </span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I know, it's almost 12 PM right now, but technically, it's still considered morning, so yep Good Morning! =) I'm currently sipping on some hot green tea, and yep writing my blog! This morning had a great start, so I hope the rest of the day will be awesome as well! =) </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Since school ended for me, I think there were times where I forgot about how precious weekends were. But lately, I've been extremely busy during the week... so busy that I finally learned to appreciate my weekends again! =) So yes, hence the title of this post being, "What Would I Do Without Weekends??". =) </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Since nothing has really happened this morning, I'm going to share part of my day yesterday with you guys! =) Yesterday was awesome! It was the first day out of 7 days where I was able to sleep in, take a nice morning shower, dress casually, and walk out of the house with no make-up!! =) I hung out with my friend during the afternoon, and had an amazing time! We hung out at Downtown Alhambra, and I was treated to a super delicious meal at an Italian Restaurant named Caffe Italiano! <br />

This is what the menu looks like! It was my first time trying not just Authentic Italian Cuisine, but just any type of cuisine! The price points were a little expensive, but the food was spectacular! It's so good... that I'm actually craving it right now! </div>

I wish I wrote down all the names of the dishes we ordered, but since I didn't, I'll just describe them instead! So for our appetizer, we decided to be spontaneous and order Tuna fish! I didn't know the the tuna would be served raw.... I've always refrained from eating raw meat, but I decided to try the fish anyway, since we already ordered it! </div>

It ended up being the best tasting dish ever, and we finished within minutes! It was my first time consuming raw fish this way, and it tasted amazing! I literally felt the fish melting in my mouth!! Super Yummy! Not only did the fish taste amazing, the sauce and avocados complimented the fish extremely well!! </div>

For our 3rd dish, we ordered Fettuccine with mushrooms and pasta! I always feel that the best way to compare one restaurant to another, is by tasting a dish that both restaurants have on the menu! This dish was amazing!! It's very creamy, but at the same time didn't taste overly flavorful! </div>

As for dessert, we ordered their Tiramisu!

<br />
Rejection can be the hardest thing to deal with.. whether it's getting rejected or rejecting someone, because the word "no" can be super hard to say or hear. <br />
<br />
For me, it's always been hard to say "no" to people. Maybe it's because I know rejection is hard to take in sometimes: therefore, just rejecting anyone has always been hard to do. But I guess being older now... I've learned that it's okay to say "no". Saying "no" does not mean you're being mean. It just means that you're standing up for yourself and what you believe is right. <br />
<br />
When a person always says "yes", people start catching up to that, and because they know your weakness, they'd start targeting and taking advantage of it. I don't quite remember when I started saying "no", but all I have to say is that, it's definitely made things better for me =)....No longer do I have to look back at some situations and wish that I stood up for myself, and no longer do I have to get into unnecessary problems. =)<br />
<br />
"No" is hard to say, but... sometimes saying "no" is what allows other people and even yourself to understand that you can't and won't be easily taken advantage of. So in times of feeling peer pressured or simply pressured during situations, just remember that there's one thing you do possess, and it is the right to reject and defend yourself and what you believe in. <br />

Life has been... surprisingly not a roller coaster. As you can see, I've presented myself as a total fatty who takes pictures of herself occasionally, and enjoys capturing the precious views that life surprises us with. haha I guess that's about right.. I love eating, I enjoy taking selfies once in a while, and I love nature! =) </div>

But yah, the pictures above are just some of many pictures I've taken in the previous month and a half! A lot has gone on, and now life is finally settled in a bit... which I'm totally glad about! =) Sometimes I look up at the sky, and can't help but remember how crazily small I am in this enormous universe. I think the picture above is a perfect example of what causes me to feel that way. I'm not sure what holds for me tomorrow, but I'll try to live the most out of each and every moment of my life. =) </div>

I've been such a busy bee lately, and because of that, I've been really into business attire! LOL does that even make sense? Anyway, there are times that call for casual and comfy attire, and there are others that call for a more dressed up and sophisticated look. I always liked the combination of purple and black together, but for some reason I just never thought about putting those colors together for an outfit until recently! </div>

This is probably one of my ideal business attires for summer! Long sleeves because it'd get cold in the office, but ironically an office rarely surpasses 75 degrees Fahrenheit.. which means it won't be that warm either! =) Aside from loving the color combination, I chose this blouse because 1) It looks absolutely adorable and gorgeous 2) It's not too tight fitting for work and 3) There really isn't a three.. I just love it! =) </div>

As for the bottom half of my outfit, I decided to go with a classic pencil skirt... however.. for a twist, I decided to spice up my outfit by choosing a minimalist skirt that's almost monochrome! For some reason black and white is too big of a contrast for me, so instead of the skirt being color-blocked with black and white, it's actually champagne colored and black! =) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To top things off, I accessorized my outfit with a beautiful floral lace black purse and a beautiful metal chain pearl necklace! Keeping things trendy, I chose a daring color for my nails... a golden canary yellow color! (Not sure if I'd actually wear this color to work though =P LOL) </div>

To finish my outfit off, I went with a pair of minimalist stilettos that are totally killer and match perfectly with my skirt! =) To be honest though, these were pretty tricky to walk in... but hey... after a few trials I think I'll be able to get the hang of things! </div>

Anyway, this is it to my post. Look at me cheesin' up in from of the camera! (<b>Yes I felt awkward!</b>) haha it was actually a little embarrassing for me! I was posing at the park for the first time, and there were so many people walking pass me and looking at me... haha I wouldn't blame them though cause seriously, who would wear something like this to the park? And what's hilarious about the picture above are the three people practicing Tai Chi in the back! haha hope they don't mind being in my picture! </div>

Anyway, as always I hope everyone has been doing well! =) I have! I've been quite busy lately as I've mentioned above, but honestly... I'd rather be busy than have nothing to do. Life is short, and it's important to make most of each opportunity I have! Thanks for reading this post, and talk to you guys later! =) <3 </div>

<br />
As we all know, California is known for it's sunshine and "wonderful" weather! It's true that we get all the vitamin D we need...but seriously... the humidity is super low... which causes my skin to be super dry throughout the year! And with it being Summer, my skin is probably crying for help without me know. =( Hence ... me treating myself to a facial mask! =) <br />
<br />
Anyway, enough with that. I've been away from my blog for a couple of weeks now... and sigh... I've been pretty busy lately! I think my life can be a roller coaster sometimes, there's always something new that comes in and out of my life, and it just takes me some time to adjust to everything! Hopefully everything will tone down soon... and I'll be able to add my blogging time into my daily schedule! =)<br />
<br />
Oh! Below is my outfit of the day & my nails of the weeks! =)<br />

I wanted to blog about my Outfit of the Day tomorrow, but for some reason...I just can't fall asleep. haha Perhaps my day wouldn't feel complete unless I blogged about my outfit? lol Anyway, for those who have read my previous blog post (<a href="http://sparklelouder.blogspot.com/2013/07/Summer2013FashionTrendInspirationBoardMaxiDresses.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>), the topic was about Summer 2013's fashion trend - Maxi Dresses, and how I'm totally in love with them! =) And I guess with that being said, it's no surprise that my next OOTD would include none other than me wearing my current favorite Maxi Dress! =) <br />

This dress...is absolutely gorgeous! The Jewel Tones are absolutely beautiful, and when I saw it on the rack, I just couldn't say no to buying it! I'm a huge fan of the nature, and the natural vibrant jewel tones LOL childishly made me feel like a Naturistic Fairy Garden Princess...or something along that line! =) haha nothing looks better with this dress than Nature's Greens and Sunny Light! </div>

My dress is a statement piece alone and is quite versatile, and because I didn't want to look overly dressed up, I went easy with the accessorizing... What I basically did was throw on my Aztec-like sandles that helped dress down my outfit (but matched at the same time), and finished my look off with a beautiful stone necklace from Monet! </div>

I used to never wear Maxi Dresses, because I thought they were only for formal wear, and were too difficult to pull off. I realized that as I've grown older, I've become more daring with my attire. I've started to try clothing pieces that I would use to say "never" to, and I'm so glad that I'm exploring the different paths of fashion! =) haha </div>

<br />
As I have mentioned in my previous post, Summer is one of my favorite seasons! =) And it just so happens that one of Summer 2013's most popular clothing trends is also one that I adore!!! Can you guess which one I'm referring to? <br />
<br />
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-size: x-large;">MAXI DRESSES! </span><br />
<br />
Lol... I've never been a huge fan of Maxi Dresses until this year. For some reason, I've always had the impression that Maxi Dresses were too formal to be worn on a regular day, but I totally take that back! It all depends on how you style the rest of your appearance with your dress that determines how formal or casual your outfit will appear! And when I say the rest of your appearance, it includes makeup, accessories, jewelry, and hair!! <br />
<br />
The reason why I love Maxi Dresses...is because they're so easy! What do I mean by easy? Instead of taking the time to think about what pieces to include into your outfit, all you'd have to do is slip on a Maxi Dress, and wallah!! you are ready to go (<i>unless you want to take some time to match your dress with jewelry =)</i>) ! lol I think I've mentioned a billion times already...but I'm the type of gal who loves comfort! I can't stand wearing things that are too tight and will have me feeling uncomfortable the entire day; therefore, Maxi Dresses are one of the greatest fashion inventions to me! =) Besides them being easy to wear and match, they also look quite stunning on! =) <br />
<br />
I've been a huge Lookbook.nu addict lately! I love how much creativity and style each lookbook individual has ... and so with that being said, below is a collage with pictures that will hopefully give inspiration to those who want to style their Maxi Dresses for various occasions! =)<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">If I'm correct, Summer just started around 4 days ago! I always thought it was hot before Summer even began, but I think I'm finally truly being reminded of what California's Summer sun feels like! haha, since the temperature has warmed up, I've changed my wardrobe up a little! I've put any thick long pants and shirts away, and switched them off with my favorite short skirts and shorts! =) Though I really dislike how hot it is...Summer's actually one of my most favorite weathers because it brings my wardrobe to an extreme, and I can where my favorite summer essentials... short shorts & open toed shoes! hehe =D </span><br />

For today's LookBook Outfit, I went for comfort! My outfits are usually pretty comfortable, but I went the extra mile today! =D I mentioned Short Shorts and Sandles as my all time Summer Essentials, which is totally true, but I find myself going towards a new trend this season.... Crop Tops & High Waisted Flowy Skirts! <br />

haha as SOME of my pictures show, I'm actually pretty Giddy! The emotions are real, cause you guys have no idea how long it has been since I've shown my bare legs without wearing any pantyhose or leggings! Anyway, for my outfit, I basically took my adorable graphic crop top tee and matched it with my current most favorite high waisted pocket skirt! To top the outfit off, I threw on a light chambray button up, and that ALMOST completes my outfit! </div>

I'm not a huge jewelry fan, so all I did was add a cute dainty bracelet (that you guys can barely see from my pictures), and topped my outfit off with my favorite nude Calvin Klein flatforms and Urban Expressions taupe grey purse to complete the look! Though I have a standard height of 5'5", I just couldn't resist but add another 4 inches to my height LOL. </div>

There are times where I'm in love with layering, but it's times like these that I truly appreciate the magic of simplicity. I was able to walk out the house feeling extremely comfortable, relaxed, and slightly breezy =) that day, and I have simplicity and summer to thank! I can't wait to take advantage of this weather and take more outfit of the days, so definitely stay tuned for more outfit of the days in the near future! Have a great one everybody! </div>

It has nothing to do with Fashion or clothing...or that sort of stuff! It's going to be another one of my heart to heart posts. <br />
<br />
So... let's talk about envy or jealousy... I think it happens quite often that people look at other people's life and end up feeling bad about themselves. Whether it comes to jobs or relationships, these are 2 things that trigger jealousy and competition the most. Even if a person isn't trying to compete with another person, it just so happens that when another person is doing great in life that there's this type of bitter-sweetness about it. To be more specific, if a person is trying to achieve or wants to achieve something, and it just so happens that their friends or enemies achieve it and he/she doesn't, then he/she would end up feeling bitter because he/she wishes that they were in the other person's shoes. <br />
<br />
I think it's reasonable though....very understandable actually. But I think it's times like these that we should refrain from looking at other people's happiness and find happiness through what we have. Yah I know... if a person is super poor, then they might feel jealous over the rich...but if we keep drowning ourselves in other people's happiness, then where is the opportunity for us to be happy? If all we do is compare what we don't have to what those who we envy have, then where's the time for us to seek true happiness among our lives? <br />
<br />
Whether you are a girl who was cheated on, and bitter over your ex. boyfriend's life with his new girlfriend, or a person who is unhappy over someone's career that you wish you had, then I think it's time to realize that if competing and comparing is making you sad, then it's time to put the comparing to a stop. Yes other people might be happy, but there are also things that they might dwell over that you might not be aware of. Even if their life is picture perfect, then it's time to put less time, thought, awareness, and energy into their lives and instead work on your own happiness. <br />
<br />
I think everyone has the ability and opportunity to be happy. It's when we find that inner peace within us that we'll automatically feel more at ease and live each day more positively. Good things happen to those who believe! Those who are positive and look forward to seeking happiness in their own life. <br />
<br />
Life is so precious... and I think we should start putting more time into our lives. The person who you might be jealous of is taking care of themselves, now it's time to take care of yourself and find your inner and outer happiness. =) <br />
<br />
Best of Luck,<br />

There are so many pieces in there that you don't even wear more than twice a year, perhaps not even once in the entire year... so why are you buying more clothing?"</i> I think this is a reality that many people face haha. When I was younger, I used to buy clothing like there was no tomorrow. Ok ok I'm being a little overly dramatic here, but what I mean is...I used to buy clothing without thinking about whether I actually needed it or not. And the thing about me loving fashion...is that my style always changes, which means what I liked last year might not be something that I'd currently wear...<br />
<br />
Anyway, since my realization...I've seriously bought less clothing. I realized that I could be using my money on something more important, and perhaps just saving the money up for more practical and useful things in the future! Despite shopping less, haha there's no harm to online "window" shopping right (haha get it? Using Window 7? Sorry that was dumb LOL.) There's no window that I'm actually looking through, but it's the same idea where I'm browsing but not buying! So yep, that's exactly what I've been doing, and my current favorite online retail store is......Dun dun dun......<br />

I am absolutely in love with this dress. Scary though...cause it's almost as expensive as my prom dress! Anyway, I'm in the phase right now where I adore over sized garments, so this dress works perfectly! What differs this from other dresses is seriously the unique tie-dye color as well as the black dipped bottom! I haven't seen something quite as daring as this, and how nice it would be if I owned it! LOL </div>

Alright, LOL, so this dress officially surpasses the price of my Senior Prom Dress! It's super pricey, but I love it! I love the shape of this dress. It's tight enough to give the body some shape, but loose enough to exude comfort! The front lacing is absolutely stunning, and I love the subtle yet stylish shoulder cut-outs! </div>

Here's another dress from the Evil Twin. So far the Evil Twin is my favorite brand when it comes to dresses that Wasteland carries. I love this dress because of the print and color, and most of all because of the super flattering shape it provides! This bustier dress with a sweetheart neck-line act likes a flattering corset that compliments our upper body, and a flared bottom that gives our look some "ooomf" LOL! I love this dress!!!! </div>

To be honest...I have mixed feelings about this dress. I think the peplum shape of the top is absolutely stunning...but I don't think it's something that'll compliment everyone. Despite the nice shape, I think this dress is super duper dramatic. The contrast between white and black already calls attention, but the super dramatic floral lace doubles the drama. I think this dress is stunning on the model and she pulls it off..but I'm not sure how versatile this dress would be. It looks amazing, but I think it'd be a little too dramatic for a casual day out, interview, or even an evening party. </div>

Another item from Evil Twin!!! =D My new fashion trend is.....TIE DYE! =) I think tie dye is quite dramatic and some people might even see it as tacky, but who cares, I love it! I don't have anything that's tie-dye but I do see myself getting my hands on some LOL! Besides the pattern, something else that I like about the top is that it's cropped, which is super popular this year! Though I favor this trend...I don't think I'll be able to wear cropped tops until I lose some of my belly! haha </div>

LOL this top matches the name perfectly! It seriously reminds me of some sweet and yummy cotton candy! The vibrant colors are very pretty and eye catching, and not to mention it has a Tie-dyed pattern!!!! I love the style of the top, and it's actually pretty affordable compared to everything else in the store! LOL It's interesting how the Ungrateful Life Tank (<b>Top: Above the Cotton Candy Dream Top</b>), is more than double Cotton Candy Dream Top's price! </div>

OMG how adorable are these hot pants? I love the striped pattern, I love the colors, and more importantly I love how these pants have a high waist line & have slits in the front!

These shorts are too awesome! =) hehe It's interesting...cause I probably would have never guessed that I'd end up liking something like this. I used to be a jean shorts fan, and would never really put any thought into trying pants like the Jamie Short. I think the shorts are so fun! The colors, like almost all the items I favored, are fun and colorful! Again, like the pair of shorts above...I love how these shorts are high waisted! haha and I think the black lace brings uniqueness to the shorts! <span style="color: #cc0000;"><3</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Alright</b></span>, so this is it to the Wasteland items that I am currently in love with! =) I've never actually been to an actual wasteland store, but I'm seriously aiming to visit their store(s) in the near future! I heard their stores are split into 2 sections, 1 with clothing from brands their carry, and the 2nd section with thrift items that they purchased from other people. I think that's pretty cool! One thing that I love about thrift stores is that some of the most unique clothing can be found there, which minimizes that chances of other people owning the same item the buyer. haha Anyway, Wasteland carries some of the most unique and stylish street chic apparel I've seen, and their fashion style is something I seriously respect and love! =) <span style="color: #cc0000;"><3</span>! I'm most likely not going to purchase anything...but it's just nice to share what I love on my blog! =) </div>
