Summer, Update, YouTube?

Hey everyone! Yes, I'm alive lol, and I know it's been about two months since my last post, but I wanted to update you guys and say that I am back, hoping to post more frequently and consistently like before. Let me recap my summer vacation so far.

---

So, my summer has been a typical teenage vacation by staying up late, binge watching different TV series. (2 1/2 seasons of Bates Motel in less than 3 weeks), sleeping in, and going on social media.
But, let me add in that a couple of weeks ago, I got the chance to be a part of a new indie film "Jilted" coming out in 2016. It was a great opportunity and experience which I am thankful for.

---

Now as some of you may know, I recently took a trip to Lake Tahoe with my family, and decided to share some pictures and even a YouTube, yes, a YouTube video with you all on the different looks I wore on the trip! Yay! I finally made my first YouTube video, and worked hard to make it aesthetically pleasing. Now, giving that this is my first YouTube video, the video quality and lighting may not be the best, but hey, everyone has gotta start somewhere, right? I've been wanting to start up a YoutTube channel for the longest time, but never had the right equipment, but I decided that why not just make one for fun despite not haivng all the proper tools. I do hope you guys watch and enjoy it as you can watch it here: https://youtu.be/ByNYP0RT-MU

Loved this little flower meadow at Heavenly Gondola Village

Grilled Chicken Gyros & a side of Caesar salad at the
Artemis Mediterranean Grill was delicious!

And of course gotta squeeze in some sweets by stopping by for some
 Fruit Smoothies,  Honey Brick Toast, and Macarons!

Finals & Fashion Friday

Hey everyone! Long time no post right? Well all the stress, studying and late nights for AP testing and Finals is finally over, and school is finally out which means more posts and maybe starting a Youtube Channel!! Yay! My youtube channel will mostly feature lookbooks, occasional DIYs, I'm not completely sure, but it hopefully should be a fashion/lifestyle channel. (Everything is still in the working, but I've been thinking about making one for the longest time.)

Anyways, back to the post. Yes, finally school is out, and I survived another year of high school. I finished my junior year, and I finally get to say I'm a senior! The (supposedly) best year of high school! Ahh, I'm so excited, nervous, happy, sad - every emotion - just excited to being closer to the end of high school and moving on into the real world and pursuing my dreams.

Back to the OOTD. I wanted to look chic (of course) but be comfortable at the same time by adding a casual flare by throwing on this denim shirt. The dress itself is simple, but beautiful! I love the color, and the floral detailing at the top. It's very girly and flirty. I added a braided belt to add more texture to the plain dress and to prevent me from looking too boxy. This outfit is perfect for lunch with the girls, a casual date, school, anywhere! Just remember to work it!

Boho Babe Series X Hipster Pocahontas

Hey guys, this is the final look (late upload, but better late than never right?) in my #BohoBabeSeries

I'm getting a Pocahontas vibe from this outfit (who is one of my fave Disney Princesses!) This look is perfect for Coachella! A light and breezy dress with a Denim shirt tied around the hips gives a casual, yet flirty look. And if it gets cold, throw on the Denim for an Americana look. 

Look #3: A pop of color

I am diggin' the wind in this photo.
Just call me the hipster Pocahontas - painting with all the colors of the wind haha

Light and breezy dresses are a must for bohemian or coachella fashion, and with this white dress,
you'll be lookin' like an angel in the desert. (;

Denim definitely has to be a closet staple for everyone!
It's perfect for that minimal and casual look.

Bangles are the way to go when going Boho! I love the intricate designs
and how each bangle is different. 

I am in love with this tatoo ring! 
The 'diamond' was a lovely teal color that would go along well with the bracelet and necklace, 
but it looks faded in the photo.

This necklace totally flashes back to when Pocahontas receives her mother's necklace, right?! (;

Boho Babe Series X Peasant Top

Hey everyone! This is the second outfit in my #BohoBabeSeries This look is perfect for Spring and Summer. It's casual, yet flirty. 

Outfit Idea #2: Peasant Top X Jeans

I was also thinking of Lana Del Rey's "Blue Jeans" song when writing about this outfit lol! 'Blue jeans, White shirt, walked into the room you know you made my eyes burn..." haha. Anyways, back to the outfit!

Distressed, or "Ripped Jeans" are a Bohemian closet staple.
These jeans are from American Eagle and are super comfortable!

Peasant Tops are very comfortable and pretty loose, allowing you to feel light and free throughout the day.
 I am in love this off-shoulder top with crotchet detailing.  

Okay now, I may or may not be obsessed with these tattoos.
 These are temporary glitter tattoos, (I think that's what these are called, lol)
 Regardless, these come in various cute designs that can substitute for jewelry and act as an accessory on their own! 

I rarely wear bracelets because they always tend to fall off my tiny wrists,
but I loved the subtle colors on these which also matched my necklace.

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?!
