Casual in Red Birks + $500 Amazon Giveaway

Leave a Comment
Tank: Loft. Necklace: Forever21. Bag: Madewell. Shorts: REALLY old. Birks: Madewell. 

The past few weeks have been SO busy, with my sister's entire family moving to the US and all. I think it'll settle down a bit now though. Ron and I ran errands and rearranged the living area and it all started from a smell that I was not a fan of.

Anyway, while I am working on getting my blogging mojo on, here's a giveaway to get yourself a $500 gift card to Amazon, hosted by no other than Oh My Gosh Beck!

Birthday Dress + $500 Cash Giveaway

Leave a Comment



I wore this red dress to my birthday dinner exactly eleven days ago today. Ron took me to Portofino Cucina Italiana in LA where our romantic 5-course meal was absolutely amazing! This red dress is one of my most favorite Forever21 sale buys because I only grabbed it so I have something to try on but I ended up loving it, and it has the perfect shade of red. Since I'm tall, it also has the perfect maxi length that I prefer.

In other news, I came across an article on HuffPost entitled "2 Ways To Be Happier" and immediately asked myself, what makes me happy. I thought of Ron, Fox and Chippy, my dogs and food. However, the article was not about tangible things, it is about how you can make yourself and other people happier. The article also emphasizes that happiness is a choice and that in can be found in two ways: by a shift in your perspective and recognizing something you are thankful for, and two, committing random acts of kindness. It's a pretty good read in my opinion...especially if you're having a rough time.

Before you leave, I am happy to announce that the ultimate cash giveaway is back! :) As always, it is organized by Oh My Gosh Beck! and will last for nearly a month. Good luck! :)

As you can see, my gold penny loafers and I have become best friends again. It's been my go-to shoes when I noticed a chip on my toe nail polish.. It's simple enough to be worn with anything and almost everything and loud enough to make a statement. Oh see that top above? I think I may have found my new favorite tank top that I will wear at least once every two weeks this summer. I would have gotten all of the prints but most of them were very...not my style.

Parka: Gifted (similar). Jeans: Zara. Slip-ons: Target. Sweater: Old Navy (similar). Canvas tote: Forever21

Per usual, LA's temps have been jumping around from low 50s to high 70s again. The other week, we got an awesome cloudy spell. Well, it was generally awesome because it wasn't hot but the drizzle was not cool because Ron just washed my car. It was great to feel that chilly wind again though. I loved it!

A couple of weeks ago, for some reason, I started re-obsessing about getting a new camera again. Ron promised to look for a good deal before I jump the gun and buy one at a higher price. He then found that Canon has refurbished ones in stock and on sale on their site! Woot woot! A day later after I bought it, it was sold out. So now, we are proud owners of a Canon EOS 70D! :)


So if you are like me and you are having an itch to upgrade whatever gadget you have, here's an awesome giveaway organized by no other than Oh My Gosh Beck that you could use to be able to get that upgrade! ;)

Crochet and Lace Love + $200 Forever 21 Giveaway

11 comments
I still remember the first time I laid my eyes on my mom's eyelet top. I was so thrilled that at 10 years old, I was already her size and that means I can borrow her clothes. This lead to me loving crochet, lace and embroideries. I mean, it was inevitable. How can one love eyelet and not love the dainty-ness of these fabrics and patterns? Here are my favorites from Forever 21!

Spring is here you guys! I know, everyone's talking about it. LOL Well it is an awesome time of the year and I wish to send everyone half of all the sunshine we've been getting. We sort of had a heat wave in the past week and it's not that fun when you love the cold weather. On the brighter side, we get to break out our dresses and sandals again! <3

Life has been so hectic. I blame school and my ability to pressure myself to do shit ahead of time. Also, spring forward got to me bad this year. I am having a hard time adjusting. My body's sleeping time is the same as before so in the morning, it's such a pain for me to get up because I don't get as much sleep. I got to do one good thing for Jan Loves though; I finally installed Disqus. It makes replying and keeping the conversation going so easy!

And I almost forgot about this when I first published my post! I've teamed up with some awesome bloggers to giveaway $800 PayPal Cash! Now who doesn't want to win that? It starts at 3PM PST! I will be tweeting about it once it goes live so make sure you follow me on Twitter. Good luck! :)

Layering can sometimes still surprise Ron. When I took my chambray top off as we were shooting, he let out a "woah." The good kind. He said because he really likes the dress on me probably because he is my number one fan. ;) So I decided to share how the dress actually looks like without anything covering my shoulders.

In ten days, Spring will be officially here in LA. I say officially because it's been feeling like Spring since February and my allergies seem to have flared up earlier this year than the past years. Who else loves spring? :)

How much do you love that detail in this sweater? I was obsessed! During my trip to Houston earlier this year, my friends and I stopped by Forever 21 in downtown to pass time before the brewery opened. They had the buy one, get one free sale going on that time and even though I knew I had limited space in my luggage, the stubborn me still got a chunky cardigan (see here) and this chunky sweater. I mean, who wouldn't if it only costs $16.99 for both?! I should also mention that I got the Free People cropped lace tube from Marshalls for $10. WIN!

If there was a kind of clothing that I don't have much of, it would be sweaters. I mean, that should be a given when living in LA. You have no choice but to have so many light cardigans and tops. Our weather is so unpredictable sometimes that I feel the need to wear a top and a cardigan almost everyday.

In other news, I've teamed up with these beautiful bloggers in putting together a for Paypal Cash! Thanks to Becca for planning this awesomeness! :)

[Giveaway] Monday Fun Day

Weekends have been insanely crazy and have been flying by super fast. I'll be honest: I feel like weekends fly by every week but Christmas still feels so far away. Can Christmas eve be tomorrow already so I can watch my family open presents at 12:00 of 12/25?! Haha! JK! I am not really 100% ready yet! -- this rant isn't the point of this post though...

I've teamed up with these beautiful ladies to give away a Urban Decay's Naked on the Run! It was a long time coming as everyone (including myself!) seemed to be so busy with the holidays and maybe finals week too(?) but we made it through :) Best of luck!
