Business Casual // Forest Green + Plaid Pencil Skirt

The weather is beautiful today, cool breezy wind and warm sunshine. Perfect for a walk in the park and tennis! Some might even think I'm a professional tennis player for having my racket in the car trunk, but little did they know, it has barely seen daylight.

I see lots of potential with this plaid pencil skirt and plan to pair it with casual spring/summer outfits. And I just couldn't walk away from this gorgeous forest green blouse despite the roomy fit :0.

Spring Forward // Long Cardigan + Mauve Pencil Skirt

Spring is just around the corner, that means colorful blooms and sniffles! In 2018, I hope to gain many positive experiences, be proactive in achieving my health goals, generate creative content, and of course blog more!  

"Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at. It matters that you don't just give up." Stephen Hawking

International Women's Day // Self-Reflection

Happy International Women's Day to all the women out there! I have recently rediscovered some favorite classics (about a decade old) that I was obsessed with, and became enamored with them again like it was just yesterday. As I listen to these bittersweet melodies and words that I don't comprehend, I fall into a reverie of self-reflection... I come to realize the importance of open-mindedness, faith, compromise, and the willingness to take "educated" risks. The bad news is time flies. The good news is you're the pilot. -Michael Althsuler

Napa Valley: Bell-Sleeves and Sheer Maxi Skirt

I've been distressing over ways to enhance my blog. This can be easily resolved by hiring someone/teaching myself. These options have been left by the wayside, but are definitely on my ultimate to-do list! On a happier note, here's my adventure in Napa Valley -reminiscent of my childhood of running through the grapevines, plucking the neighbors' grapes and popping them in my mouth. Aah, the sweetness and innocence of childhood : ).  

Travel Diary // Short Bangs & Graphic Print Muscle Tee

Exactly five more weeks until X'mas and one week until New Year's after that. Many tasks to accomplish and things to sort through before the arrival of 2017. Yet instead of applying time management as my theme, I time-travel to my past excursions -one of which is Berkeley Botanical Garden!

In all seriousness, I should start on my to-do list before midnight strikes. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

College Campus Tour: Lace Shorts + Off-the-Shoulder Checkered Print

A favorite activity that I love to do while traveling is to visit universities in the vicinity, take a leisure stroll through campus, and allow my eyes to be mesmerized by stunning architecture and landscape. Oddly, it's just something that makes me feel giddy & slaphappy, and unknowingly I find myself smiling contently.

My "huh?" moment, quite on the daily :[]

By the Railroad Track: I Heart T-shirt & Sheer Maxi Skirt

I'm enjoying this change in weather because October is back to its breezy autumn! To celebrate, I'm sipping on a cup of coffee and documenting this entry before I start my studies -a very exciting saturday!
