Food Coma

I apologize for the wonky colors in the photos; we were shooting indoors and I forgot to adjust my camera's settings.

H&M sequin top & skirt, F21 fur vest, random opaque tights, and Juicy Couture wedges.





For Thanksgiving dinner, my family and I dined at Wynn's Stratta; the food was absolutely delicious! My mouth is watering just thinking about it and uploading these photos onto my computer. I'm horrible with names so I don't remember the dishes' exact names, but here are the photos...




Calamari


Salmon


Chicken - best chicken dish ever.


Chocolate Cake with Gold Shavings.

Then we had a lovely late breakfast at Mandalay Bay's Raffles Cafe.

Strawberry Waffle, nom nom nom.


Blueberry Pancakes.


It was my first time actually adding fruit to my pancakes. I thought they were a little too sweet, to be honest.


Okay, I know this is just a bagel... but I have an obsession with bagels and cream cheese. Cream Cheese is so fattening, but SO SO DELICIOUS.

Happy Thanksgiving!


Kimchi Blue dress, UO belt, Bebe cardigan, F21 purse, and Dolce Vita oxfords.

I wore this to school this past Tuesday (my Thanksgiving break started on Wednesday, woohoo five day weekend!) and looking back on these photos, I totally forgot to take a detailed photo of my new belt! Next time. Today, I went to Best Buy with my mother so I could get a new laptop. I couldn't believe there were people already camping outside, on a Wednesday. Anyway, I'm currently using an HP and I absolutely hate it since I've had a ton of problems with it. The employees recommended the new HP Envy which is supposedly comparable to a Mac, but we decided to get a Macbook Pro instead - I'm excited! I haven't opened the box yet since I'm one of those people who like to wait a couple of hours before opening packages or a few days before wearing their most recent purchases.

I'm leaving for Las Vegas tomorrow, so I should probably start packing soon. I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner and good luck with Black Friday shopping! Before I go, here are some photos I've taken for the campus/streetstyle series I spoke of earlier in the summer. I've been real busy with school so I haven't had many opportunities to stay on campus and shoot around. And I cheated in the first photo, since those are actually my friends Nathan and Ally, haha.



Have a great weekend! :)

Staying Warm


Kimchi Blue floral dress, Levi's black denim, F21 faux fur vest & knit cardigan, and Alice+Olivia x Payless moto boots.

I love wearing this fur piece because it's super soft and keeps me so warm, sometimes even to the point where it gets too hot and I'm sweating, even though it's sleeveless. The floral dress is a recent purchase from Urban Outfitters, for only $10! It's a tad too big but will have to do since I'm craving for anything floral at the moment.

I also want to give a big thank you to Sieg Magazine for featuring me as one of their "It Bloggers", alongside Annabu, Erin, and StyleSeeking Zurich, in their current November online issue! I am truly honored :)

This past Saturday, my friend Derek and I tried the new A & J restaurant that opened recently in Diamond Bar. A & J serves, hands down, the best Taiwanese food... definitely super yummy and very affordable. They used to have only three locations (my favorite in Alhambra) but now with the DB location open, they're in the process of opening another one - literally two blocks away from my house!! Least to say, I'm very excited and counting down the days until opening day. If you ever have a chance, order their most popular dish, the Spicy Beef Noodle Soup!


Pot Stickers
"Guo Tie"


Spicy Wontons
"Hong Yo Tsao So"


One Last Summer Fling

The sun sets so early now...


F21 tank, H&M moto jacket, Silence & Noise floral denim shorts, and Alice+Olivia x Payless moto boots.

Time to go to sleep before I cave into my craving for late night munchies!

Hot and Cold

Today, my friend Alexis and I headed on over to Space15Twenty for the first time. We were kind of confused, so we ended up just shopping at Urban Outfitters. Later on in the evening, I tried hot chocolate from Bean Town from the first time and it was amazing. The best hot chocolate (I thought) I've ever had was from Disneyland, but now? BEAN TOWN!! If you're a Yelper, please do check out their great reviews.

In other news, I'm still hating Southern California weather. It was nearly 80 degrees Fahrenheit today, then dropped to 50 degrees around 5:00 pm. I always have to bring a change of clothes just in case I get too hot or cold...


DIY Hanes men's tee, F21 denim shorts, H&M leather bag, and studded sandals from a Chinese fashion boutique.
