City of Dreams

Hey everyone, long time no blog! I've even super busy with school. It's the most busiest time of the year for this high school student. Registering for the SAT and AP exams, staying up long hours occupied with homework and so on. This will be the last #fashionfriday #ootd post of the month. Sad face ): But don't worry, I will be posting more!

As you can tell by the title of this post I'm talkin' about the city of dreams; New York. It says so on my dress! Haha 
"Nueva York City - cuidad de Los sueños"

For this outfit I was inspired by the street style of NYC. I am just infatuated with the diversity of fashion there. The best of the best reside in the big city, and most importantly, each fashionista there has their own individual style that makes them unique and beautiful.

I saw this dress and knew I had to get it. It's edgy. It's chic. It's different. I am in love with the fishnet type material found at the bottom of the dress. It gives an extra bit of flair and adds to the simplicity of the dress. I've noticed T-shirt dresses are coming to style. It's hard not to fall in love with the comfortable material, and it's quick and easy to slip on for the lazy gal (Like myself) Or it you're in a hurry, but still want to dress up. (Also like myself). For accessories I kept it simple and wore a black and white bracelet with traces of gold and another gold bracelet on top. I also paired the outfit with my brown Steve Madden purse with gold accents to go along with my shoes and jewelry. I kept with the black and white theme with hints of gold and brown. I am in love with my white and brown Dolce Vita wedges/heels! They are surprisingly super comfortable and did I mention CUTE?!

Preppy Chic

Hi everyone! (2 posts in one day?! What?? Yes, I've been lagging with ootds, so I decided why not?) For today's #FashionFriday I decided to go with a polished and chic look.

---

Blazer | Forever 21
Blouse | H&M
Skirt | Zara
Shoes | Nordstrom
Belt | Urban Outfitters
Earrings | Lauren Conrad
Necklace | Aunt's

---

I wore a plain navy blue blouse and a black blazer on top. I decided to wear my navy blue plaid skirt paired with a black belt to give a better shape to my body. I guess plaid skirts are kind of a big trend now, aren't they? And of course I had to wear some pearls to tie off that classy, preppy look. As for shoes, I wore some gray wedges.

Mint and Spring

Hello everyone! It's been a while since my last fashion post, and I never had the chance to post my outfit from the other day, so I'll upload that one as well soon.


This week {in California} has had the perfect weather that every Californian knows and loves. Though chilly in the mornings, it cools down to nice fresh afternoons. 

---

For today's #chicandunique ootd I really wanted to wear this beautiful mint floral dress from Urban Outfitters. This dress just screams Spring. Florals? Check. Pastel colors? Check. Cuteness? Double check! Haha, I really love the mint color (as well as any pastel colors). And pastels are a huge Spring trend (duh). Also, what girl doesn't love flowers? I think I may have an addiction to floral prints. Whoops. 


Dress | Urban Outfitters
Necklace | American Eagle
Cardigan | Nordstrom





I paired the dress with a beige knit cardigan since it gets chilly in the mornings. (Also, the back of the dress is pretty revealing) I didn't wear any accessories besides dainty pearl earrings because I wanted the main focus to be the beauty of the dress. I also threw on a chestnut brown belt to match my boots as well as giving more shape to my body.

Healthy Brekkie Omelette

Good morning everyone! I'm glad it's finally March, (almost Spring break, my birth month, and only two more months until Summer!)

Today I decided why not make a nice healthy breakfast since I rarely have time to make myself breakfast throughout the week. (Usually skip it which I know is bad, but I try to grab at least a banana or granola bar to eat on my way to school).

---

Omelette Ingredients: (serving for 1-2 people)
2 eggs 
1 tomato (cherry tomatoes are good too)
1 baby bell pepper (doesn't matter what kind, red, orange)
1 onion (only used a tiny portion) 
Cilantro 
Any preferred greens 
Salt & Pepper for taste 
Milk (optional for fluffier eggs)
Meat (optional, but I didn't use any in this recipe)
Cheese
Avocado (optional) I love avocado, who doesn't? But sadly, I didn't have any ): 
Olive oil or butter

---




Step 1:
Slice and dice vegetables. 
I used half of the tomato, and a sliver of onion.




Step 2:
Beat eggs and add salt & pepper (and milk if you would like)



Step 3:
Butter or oil up the pan and add all the vegetables (leave cilantro for garnish) and sautée them for about 5 minutes on low-medium heat. Add in the eggs and cook on low-medium until egg is golden brown. 




Step 4:
Slip onto plate, garnish with cheese, avocado, etc. and enjoy!
