Let's go far an #ootd

It's a really nice feeling to have someone give you a reward for your hard work. If I could have my say, everyone would get an award for something, best cookies, most helpful, class clown. I was lucky enough to receive a general award from the Fashion Design faculty tonight. Lucky and blessed, maybe I should be rewarding myself more often. 

Also, the best thing that was said about me today was that i'm a "big picture" person. 100% percent.

Where's the camera, an #ootd

So, I'm back from New York/Venice and I have a potential job lined up for the summer if I can ace the interview. I don't even remember the last time I had a job interview, it's been that long. Anyhow, an update of my field school trip should be coming sooner rather then later..*Fingers crossed*

And also this sunshine is great but I'm that weird person who misses the rain when the sun is out and wants the sun when it's raining. Can't win this game of life.

The school year has ended and I can't believe that I am half way though my degree. Makes me wonder if the next 2 years will go by quicker or slower. Quicker I hope.

Kimoh-no an #ootd

Top, Macy's; Kimono, XXI; Jeans, Zara; Shoes, Nike

Ever since I bought these Nike's in NYC I've been trying to incorporate them into my wardrobe more. Not only do they give me a break from my Forever 21 booties that I wear in almost every other OOTD I do but they are comfy and still give me maybe an inch more of height.

Really quickly this outfit was put together. I have jeans for days so I brought out my Zara Basic ones and paired it with a lacy black tank and my XXI kimono.

School has just stared but I can already feel the pressure. I'm staying calm and thinking rationally and realistically. I've been managing my time better and working like a mad woman. 

I had to take time out on this day to take an OOTD. I loved my outfit. I was feeling dramatic and wore a little black eye shadow to uni, oh la la. 

This past week and a half-ish has been interesting. Lesson learned so far?....

 BUT THERE IS STILL GOING TO BE SOMEONE WHO HATES PEACHES" 

amen.

For the record, I love peaches. You're peachy...

This weekend I finally saw my little sass nugget and it was terrific. She took me on a little tour of the city she grew up in and we ate some yummy food and drank lots of Starbucks, I helped her pick out some makeup and we discussed all things blogging and it was nice to catch up since the last time we saw each other was in May!

Little Kate has a lovely blog CLICK HERE so check it out. She is just a little trendy fashion chick who has a really cool style that she blogs about.

Also very excited about my Band of Outsiders + Starbucks Collab Mug <3333 (thank you for finding it Kachi!)

where am I now an #ootd

Harlowe and Graham Top, Coach bag, XXI sunnies, Boots from Hudson's Bay (don't remember the actual brand)

So while shopping for a few specific things on the weekend I hadn't realized that it's been a long time since I've been to a mall. This is due to the $damage$ I did in New York in May (read about it here). And while shopping, I graced a couple very sweet compliments. The lady at Aldo liked my top, A LOT, the lady at Sephora told me she loved my eyeliner and the woman working the the dugstore told me she liked my bold lip color...Uhm thank you kinda people who still exist in this world <33
It really is about the little things in life.

Anyhow, this is what I wore. How are you all doing?

Kimono Vibes an #ootd

Kimono, XXI; Tank top, Macy's; Leggings, Aritzia; Lipstick, Ruby Woo by MAC

I've had this Kimono for a little while now and it's been a really good purchase. I can throw it on top of almost any outfit to look dressed up and trendy. I can wear it will my wool hat, jeans and a plain shirt and look super city chic. Here I've just worn it with a lacey black top and leggings to keep the focus on the Kimono.

There are definitely a lot on the market right now. Summer time colored one especially. Do you own a Kimono style cardigan?

Last weekend was an interesting one, but any excuse I get to dress fancy I'll take!

My family visited my Aunt and the view where she lives is amazing. Though the town is tiny and I much rather prefer the city life, is was a calming(ish) trip. I loved my outfit, I seriously felt like a princess, it's probably one of the funnest parts about having a diverse culture, playing dress up.

The mountains looked beautiful & I attempted to take a picture of my fabulous nails but it turned out slightly too dark

"Oh my legit god"

I say a lot of random things. This was my outfit yesterday. All black everything.

Spontaneous hang sesh with ANG a.k.a. www.behance.net/angelaest, was much needed yesterday. She literally lightened up my mood and she always knows the right things to do and say to make me laugh.
