Everyday Words

We all have dreams. Some of us want to be lawyers or doctors, some of us want to be businessmen. Some of us want to be world renowned fashion designers, and some, elementary school teachers or auto repair shop owners. Dreams and aspirations come in many shapes and sizes, but no matter how big or small, I believe that we all have the capacity to achieve our dreams. As a dreamer, it is your responsibility to take initiative. Find the path that leads to your dream, and run. Don’t wait for the path to find you. Get up, go out, and find the path. If the road isn’t paved yet, pave it.

The road WILL have pot holes and traffic jams. You may get a flat tire and have to phone for help. You might run out of fuel and have to walk eight and a half miles to the nearest gas station before you can get back on the road toward your destination; but the road is drivable. You just have to keep driving. No one man or woman achieves greatness over night. It takes patience, courage, hard work, and an unrelenting pursuit of your greatest desire.

Isabel Marant

These ankle boots from Isabel Marant are the best boots ever made! I needed some trustworthy shoes to bring with me to Philly this past weekend and didn't have to think twice about bringing these bad boys. Not only are they comfy, but super reliable when you know you're going to be walking for hours, hours, and hours! They are definitely an A+ in my shoe collection and the best booties I've "splurged" on.

Welcoming Fall

Or...not? We must be on mother nature's good side because it was hot and humid today in the city. Not only is it Fall, but also the fact that it is September and normally the weather is very cool and can get a bit nippy in the morning. As much as I love experiencing the four seasons, I absolutely despise the constant weather change!

All in all, it was a beautiful day to explore the city with my sisters. It was a long, six hour stroll around the city, but it was well worth the bumps and bruises!

One of the best DIY of all time: empty wine bottles used as an accessories holder.

Fall

My favorite season has arrived - Fall. I love seeing the different color leaves, breezy weather, and the beautiful sunsets. In honor of the coming days of Fall, I decided to purchase these pretty fall color flowers from my local Trader Joes. I'll sure miss the four seasons!

Up Close & Personal

After months of deciding a friendly-user camera, I've finally purchased myself the new Samsung NX mini and I can honestly tell you it's amazing. I love the features and the quality of the photos - best purchase! Since I wanted to test the quality, I gave myself a mini photo shoot, or should I say a "selfie" moment. Can you peek my freckles? Can't wait to take this baby with my travels!

Hello, again

I've finally decided that blogging and capturing my day-to-day would be a fun project to maintain for a long period of time. It's kind of like my personal diary and getaway, if you will.  Here goes my passion, time, and effort.

Stay tuned....

LONG OVERDUE

Easy breezy in the beautiful New York City. One thing I enjoy most about being on the east coast is the four season (I'm debating if I want to change my blog name to this instead!) I get to experience 365 days a year. Although I do not enjoy shoveling and having to deal with the constant and unpredictable weather change here in Boston, I'm so glad I am able to enjoy the summer, fall, winter, and spring.

LONG WEEKEND

So grateful to be able to call Boston my home.

 Congratulations to all the Boston Marathon runners!

VALENTINOS

This part of my life is called "treating yourself". We all work too hard to not spoil ourselves whether they are luxury shoes, handbag, or jewelry. Special thanks to one of my closest friends, Michael, for waiting so patiently after spending hours of debating if it's the right decision. This has to be one of my favorite purchases of all time!

OLSENS

Obsessing over Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen's style! They tend to dress in the dark side, but no matter what they are wearing, it just works!

DENIM SUNDAY

I love pairing stripes with a denim shirt - better yet, you can never go wrong with a nice, clean denim shirt. Whether it's paired with stripes, leopard, or leather, it's a great piece to mix and match. 

SUNSETTING

 

Biker-ish.

CALIFORNIA DREAMIN'

Enjoying my stay in San Diego! I can seriously stare at palm trees all day. Wearing Topshop leather track pants and espadrilles from Loeffler Randalls. 

NEW YEAR

20 degree weather sure does not stop me from wearing my loeffler randall and leather jacket. I also paired this with my new top from Missguided and pants from Club Monaco. Picture was taken New Year's day during lunch with my family. 

Happy New Years!
