Polka Dot Skirt

If it weren't for the busy print, this outfit would be very simple. I got this skirt on sale at Zara for 20 bucks. 

Here I just paired it with a simple white tee from H&M to balance out the craziness of the skirt, 

 I also wore this skirt with my thrifted silk blouse from Ann Taylor. It was 100% silk! Ca n you believe it?!

This is probably one of my favorite outfits. It's so classy

 And of course, no classy outfit is complete without a chain bag. I wore it with a pink chain bag for a nice pop of color .

As for accessories, I wore my charm necklace from Express, and a bow bracelet from F21

Hope you guys enjoyed (=

If I Were A Boy

Sorry for not posting in a while /: But, I've been studying for tests and it has just been so crazy. So to make up for it, I'm going to bombard you guys with outfit posts. Hope you don't mind (;

Julie says this shirt reminds her of a boy's tee ... but in a good way. 

This oversized tee was one of my fav finds from Goodwill . And it only cost 4 bucks !

 I love wearing oversized things as dresses and this was no exception. Though it was too short to wear as a dress by itself I just wore plain old jean shorts underneath so no one would see my hoo-ha.

 I slipped on some sheer tights since it was going to be a rainy day and also paired it off with my brown oxfords. This outfit was effortless and very simple (=

For accessories I paired it off with a black and white bracelet from H&M and my usual pearl bracelet.

A Pop of Turquoise

 Quick outfit post. I love how this white cardigan has short sleeves and has a nice navy trim. I just know I'll be wearing this cardigan a lot this spring. Paired it with a simple cream tank top. And black leggings underneath for a nice contrast.

 As for accessories I paired it with a gold leaf necklace since the outfit was so plain. And for a pop of turquoise I have on my turquoise ring from H&M and a turquoise rose bracelet my dad got me ages ago. 

On my nails I have OPI's Strawberry Margarita. A nice fun fuchsia pinky color.

Newspaper Nails

So my sister showed me a picture of a girl's nails (here) . And I was so fascinated I wanted to learn how to do it! This was my first attempt so it's definitely not anywhere near perfect. 

 

What You'll Need 

- light base color

- rubbing alcohol

- newspapers

- top coat

- small dish

Tips -
1. To make the colors stand out, stick to a white base color . The nude color gives a more subtle nail art effect
2. APPLY A SORT OF MOISTURIZER TO YOUR CUTICLES. omg. The rubbing alcohol dried the living daylights out of my cuticles as you can see from the pics. So definitely find a cuticle oil to get rid of any dryness
 3. Top coat is super important because the once you're done with the nail art, your nails will have a minimal amount of sheen to it. A nice base coat will have a prettier finish .

That's it for now <3

March in Photos

Just a few pics of some things that happened in March (= 

Revlon Lipstick (Primrose); Essie Nail Polish (Marshmallow); Urban Outfitters Leaf Ring; Maybelline Quad in Sunlit Bronze; H&M Turquoise Ring; Sonia Kashuk Concealer Pallette

This is the most amazing thing my lips have ever tasted. It was sooooo good. Basically, it's a nutella candy bar and you know i love me some nutella (= the texture was so creamy and smooth, you just HAVE to try it

 Been jogging a few times whenever the weather is a bit warm. Got a pair of the cheapest sneakers I could find. LOL. They're honestly not that bad. But I just want to get fit for the summer (=

That's it for now! A little boring, yes. I'll have more pics next time <3

Mom Jeans with Sushi

What are mom jeans? According to urban dictionary, it is "Often seen on the 40+ crowd, mom jeans are too high, too tight, tapered leg jeans which manage to showcase any bodily flaw the wearer has. Possible outcomes: The butt will be compressed so it doesn't stick out, it will instead be pushed to the sides, making it look far wider than it actually is. The genital triangle will be emphasized and outlined. The hips will look wider because of the butt compression and the tapering of the legs."

 

 They're honestly not that bad when worn as shorts and I see a lot of hipsters wearing these. They are literally my mothers shorts and i just rolled them up a bit. I actually really like them ... idk what that makes me :D

 I just paired it with my striped H&M shirt and tucked it into the jeans. I threw on a blazer also from H&M and paired it with my brown shoulder bag from Aldo. Oh, and I paired it off with tights because it is still chilly out and brown oxfords.

For accessories I topped it off with my new leaf ring from Urban Outfitters and my usual pearl bracelet (=

 I wore this out to eat at a sushi buffet which was super delish. It was around 25 bucks per person but they gave you a lot of food and were not stingy about it at all! 

 Hope you guys enjoyed this post!

Soho Park

Soho Park

62 Prince St
(between Lafayette St & Crosby St)
New York, NY 10012

Spent the afternoon at Soho. We were starving so we stopped by Soho Park to grab a bite to eat. 

 ----------------------------------------------------------------

Atmosphere - Soho Park was cafeteria style which is basically stand in line, order, pay and someone will deliver the food to your table. You get these really cute license plates for your ticket number and the waiters were quite friendly when serving us. We went during the lunch hour and it was really packed. Took us a while to find a seat and we finally just opted for one of the few outdoor seats. The weather was very nice so it was perfect. 

Food & Price - As for the food, the portions look really small to me at first, but I was induced into a deep food coma after I was finished. The price was between 10 - 15 bucks which is good for a quick bite in the city. In my opinion, the iced coffee was expensive since they gave it in a small cup and didn't taste all that great either. No matter how much sugar or milk i added, it was still incredibly bitter. :'( Also, they slyly added money to my order. The register asked if I wanted cheese in my burger and I thought that it would be at no charge since she asked so casually. So I said sure. Little did I know she added a few extra dollars to the receipt. 



 
Left to Right - Park Cheese with Fries with nasty coffee on the side, and Park Cheese with Fries again (= and Buffalo Wings


The burger was nice. Definitely not one of the best I've ever had but it was very nice. Julie really liked her buffalo wings and they look deslish but I'm just a sucker for buffalo wings. The fries were really nice. Different from others. 


Verdict - All in all, this was a nice place to grab a quick bite. One might like how crowded it was or not. The outdoor seating was nice, though you might be sitting next to a smoker, which is understandable since you are outside. I would pass on the coffee but the burger and fries are def something I would order again.
