bye bye winter?

I woke up and thought I might be dreaming because the weather predicted was almost a joke. But today was one of the most pleasant and sunny days ever! It felt so good to walk around without clutching my coat and shivering.

 Also next month, I'm doing a 29 days theme challenge post on insta.gram for February. I love any challenge. I few pics over the past month. January has passed by so quick. Although this month and already been eventful. So ready to what happens the rest of the 2012.

Thanks for reading and have a lovely week!

miss me?

 I already feel better about this week. The weather has been pretty, sunny and kind of warm. I still have to wear coat but I love winter wear. It's all so cozy and I love wearing lots of layers. Although it's not so practical for classes. 
Also I've been working out a lot at the gym. It should help that some of those guys are quite attractive. I'm just too shy to approach any, so I just stick to the free weights and treadmill with my iPod plug in. Maybe, I'll take some time to talk to one of them. Also, I've found that music really does make it seem less tiring. One of these days, I'll post some of my favorite workout songs.

What I'm wearing: tshirt Mango, jeans Jessica Simpson, sweater Target, necklace Forever21, bracelet Shopko.

It Won't Be Soon

Hello dear readers, I wish I had something new to report but I'm swamped with readings and homework. I can not wait until December, just because I will finally be done with classes. This weekend, I checked out Ulta and Forever 21.
Naturally, I had to take a picture of what I found. Forever 21 was such a mess but I found a great chain necklace with a crystal pendant. It's the kind of thing that reminds me of something I could find at Goodwill or thrift store. But I really don't mind spending the 4.50 for a necklace at F21.
Also I really wanted to try this color. It's L'Oreal Colour Riche The Balm in 118 Pink Satin. It's super sheer nude, pink shade. I really like this but you can barely tell I'm wearing it. But I shall say it's keep my lips moist and has a sweet taste. I would love to try other shades to see if they are just a sheer or if it is just this color.

Happy Monday and Happy Chinese New Year!

Let Me See That

Although I claim to be a diehard girlie girl. I have one issue, I really never wear or buy jewelry. I've worn the same pieces for awhile so it's very unlike me to buy trendy, costume jewelry. I guess I'm starting to see the appeal in layering lots of jewelry. Also I really enjoy the all the inspiration online. I feel like making a couple adorable DIY friendship bracelets. I would love to start building a better collection. I love seeing those pictures with girls, some fancy guys, showing off their rings and bracelets.
Any accessories or jewelry you're particularly liking right now?

Happy Blog Anniversary!!!

Dearest readers,
Three long and amazing years have gone by since I clicked create blog and posted. I was so utterly terrified. I think I nearly cried when I got my first comment. I might not be consistent on blogging but I do love sharing my life and photos. Three years, I've come along ways. I felt so childish and silly writing my first posts. I have grown to love many things. I would have almost never talked to so many people. I finally found a outlet to talk about champagne and shoes. I would write everything single person a thank you note but it would be rather foolish.

Thank you, Merci, Gracias, Grazie.....

Instead I post all my thanks, a million times over to every single person that has left me a comment or email.
Also I during most special occasions, such as birthday and anniversaries, I would bake adorable cupcakes and sweets. Instead I checked out the amazing Jones Bros. Cupcakes. They sell stellar macarons also, which satisfies any cravings since I left Europe. 

I wish I could take each one of my readers eat there. Sigh.

It's such a hectic week. Start of another semester and I will probably posting more sporadic during the next few weeks. Once again thanks for all the support.

The New Year

I've realized that I suck at planning. Come New Years Eve, I had nowhere to go. So I stuck around my house drinking cheap wine and passing time on tumblr. I watched the ball drop along with the family, but I do not have any regrets from that night. It made me smile thinking about where I was last year and how much I've grown into an adult.
During that night, I wondered what could happen during 2012? Will this be my big year? I'm not one to share private thoughts but I want to get working on my resolutions. I feel a need to share some below.

Outfit details: Top- Gap(old), tank-random store, leggings- random store, boots- Fossil (here), 

jewelry- bracelet-shopko and earrings-gift.

Some of my resolutions for 2012:
1. I'm trying to gain more confidence this year. It's time I stop being timid around strangers and become more open towards different things.
2.Post one outfit a week. I'm convinced I can do this. I haven't done a proper outfit post in a long time. I took a few today!  Also I want to post more of my writing on the blog.
3.Be positive. Not everything is perfect and time will make things better. Also I want to go out and smile more.
4. Finally, buy a designer bag. I'm not going to lie, this one seems to be selfish. But I want to indulge myself after working to hard to finish my degree.

Share with me your own resolutions. Maybe we can help each other.  Thanks again for all your support during 2011 and continue throughout 2012.
