75 degrees in LA

Waiting to be seated for lunch at Daikokuya in Little Tokyo. It was so delish! Their ramen is cheap and the fatty pork in it was perfect. Read my Yelp review of it here.

Then we headed to Rodeo Drive for my girlfriends to take themselves on a shopping spree. I was being a good girl and bought nothing! Well, except for a YSL Arty ring for my friend for her birthday. We actually ran into Rae from "Raeviews" there. I think she was looking at the same ring we were.

The pup that I'm holding above was just filming for a mini movie nearby before we ran into the owner. Her name is Demi and she was our only celebrity sighting of the weekend. :)

Even though I didn't buy anything on Rodeo drive, we had so much fun trying on expensive items and playing around. The SAs are were super nice, which was a pleasant surprise to us.

After shopping for awhile on Rodeo Drive, we decided we'd go somewhere closer to reality, so we headed to Santa Monica to shop some more! This is us at Kitson playing around. Such a cute store with random goodies. Kind of reminds me of a pricier Urban Outfitters.

LA is a great place to visit at all times of the year. The fabulous weather never disappoints!

Happy quarter century to me

Last year, when I turned 24, we had a huge celebration for it. I celebrated with two other girlfriends, whose birthdays are very close to mine. We had a super fun Jersey Shore themed all day and night party. This year, we were determined to top it, but were unsure how. We didn't really make any decisions because our boyfriends went ahead and booked us a limo so we just rolled with that. Oh, and we incorporated a simple black and white theme. We pretty much had the same great time as last year's or even better. We're so glad to have such awesome people in our lives to celebrate with! Enjoy the photos!

Pageant pose!

Cake, cake, cake, cake, cake, cake, cake! Thanks to sis and her bf.

As always, a good amount of alcohol was involved

The whole limo party

Ummm.. yeah, we cute!

And the photos after this just get progressively worse so that'll be all! We ended up going to a nightclub afterward and partied until we vomited and then some. That's how you celebrate a quarter century!

The Shak & The French Room

Last Thursday, The Shak at Stanley Korshak (at the Crescent Court) had a trunk show for my friend's line, Nha Khanh. My friends and I stopped by for a sneak peek and some champagne before dinner at The French Room.

Here I am, with the talented designer, Khanh Nguyen. Seven months preggo and still rockin' it. So presh!

After stopping by the trunk show, my friends and I headed to The French Room at the Adolphus Hotel to celebrate one of my friend's birthday. The pork belly starter is the best (above)!

The French Room is one of the BEST restaurants in Dallas. Souffles are a MUST! Great fashion, food and company! Win!
