New Pair of Wangs

Express blazer, Urban Outfitters top, Zara jeans, Alexander Wang Freja lace-up booties

Picked up these bad boys at Barney's outlet last year during their sale. (Yes, I know I am in need of a pedicure ASAP!) My friend and I made a day trip all the way from Dallas to San Marcos just to go to this sale... 4 hours each way so 8 hours of driving... totally worth it. It was a work night and we still managed to get back by 11 p.m. and have plenty of things to show! We each saved over $1,500 off OUTLET prices, so even more than that off retail! As you can tell, I'm a proud mama of these Wangs. :-)

Mavs Season

Forever 21 plaid, A&F denim, Barney's New York cashmere infinity scarf, tights from Hong Kong, Alexander Wang Rocco bag

My first time at a game of the season, after we won the 2011 Championship! Too bad we lost this one against OKC, but it was a really good game that kept me on my toes! We had 5th row seats, which was pretty freakin' awesome. It's so much more interesting when you're closer to the court. And when you're not drunk off your bootie...

Too soon for colors?

Leifsdottir Lingonberry Corset dress, Zara cardigan, Nordstrom belt, Guess cage wedges, Louis Vuitton Berkeley bag w/ Hermes pocket square

I know it's early for a sundress, but this Leifsdottir dress has been sitting in my closet for too long and was waiting to be unleashed to the world. It's a very lovely silk dress with cute little details but I had to pair it with this Zara cardigan because it's still too cold out. On the top picture, you can see some of the girly details like the corset bust, the sheer slits in the side, the unique wavy cut at the hem, and double straps. This is probably the most colorful piece I have, since most of my closet consists of blacks, whites, navy, and other neutral colors. This dress retails at $328 at Anthropologie, but I picked it up on the clearance rack at Nordstrom Rack (a size too big, btw). Can't wait til the weather gets warmer so I can wear it without the cardi.

Hot Pants

Red jeans from Neiman Marcus' Last Call, Steve Madden booties (top)/Steve Madden suede pumps (bottom), Aqua by Bloomingdales knit cropped top, Charlotte Russe necklace, Banana Republic Heritage silk scarf, Calvin Klein leather bomber jacket

Finally got a haircut right before the Lunar New Year! It's the most I cut off in a long time... I think it was like 4 or 5 inches! Trying to get rid of those unhealthy roots and start fresh. I recently found my hairstylist and this is only my 2nd time with him but he is a God! He does such a good job! He used some Japanese hair lotion on my hair after washing it and it made it feel so silky and healthy! I need some! What hair products do you recommend? Any favorites? I LOVE Biosilk silk therapy! It smells so good!

Get a tan!

H&M dress, Banana Republic cardigan, Ann Taylor LOFT leather belt

I think we took this photo at an awkward angle because it's making me look like a ghost! Maybe it isn't the photo? I think I need a tan... Warm weather, hurry up! It's been too long since we had fun in the sun!

Year of the Dragon

2bRYCH ruffle collar dress w/ belt, Louis Vuitton damier Eva clutch, Antonio Melani nude pumps

Happy Lunar New Year! Wishing everyone a year filled with lots of joy and happiness... and lots of red envelopes. Say goodbye to the year of the rabbit (my year!) and bring on the year of the Dragon! Last year was supposed to be my "bad luck year," (your 2nd cycle/the year you turn 24) but a lot of good things actually happened. Of course, there were a few things that went wrong but what year is ever perfect? I say just live your life like there's no tomorrow because whatever happens happens! C'est la vie, right!?

Seize the Day

Banana Republic boyfriend shirt, tights from Macy's, ASOS leopard belt, Tory Burch 'Dabney' pebbled leather wedge boots, Mom's vintage purse

This picture is from yesterday, my first full day off in a long time! I work pretty much 7 days a week and even though I LOVE my job, it gets pretty tiring working that many days. I had forgotten how good it feels to sleep in, wake up and take my time to get ready, and just do whatever I wanted all day. It was a nice little break! This is how I had the time to take pictures before I left the house to start my awesome day. Carpe diem! And now back to the daily routine until next time! :-)
