Summer Nights

I almost didn't want to put up this post but I thought to myself, "why not" since I haven't written in awhile. My way of a night out without looking too dressed up: a tank with black high waisted shorts and a pair of black wedges to add some height without sacrificing the comfort. And a leopard belt, of course. Little did I know this concoction became a reminder of a crazy night. One too many drinks. We never seem to learn, do we? 

Sure Thing

I didn't know what to name this post, and since I'm currently listening to "Sure Thing" by Miguel as I'm writing this, I decided to use that as my title. Anyway, I feel like I live in these white shorts. They go with everythinggggg so I tend to gravitate towards it all the time. Bad for all my other shorts I have in my closet. Maybe it's time I wear more dresses also. I'll keep that in mind when I pack for Mexico! I'll be going in about a month and I'm so excited to finally get out of the Bay Area and relax on the beach and eat some Mexican food. The problem is that I'm probably going to be without internet - or even without contact to anyone in the states actually. It's too pricey to get daily internet at the hotel and I don't want to get any roaming charges for using my phone. Hmmmm..I'm still trying to figure out what I'm going to do. Now that I don't have to worry about any presentations this week, it's time I start researching activities and places to visit!

 

1. New nail polish in "Club Havana". I've been searching for an orangey/peachy color and this was only $1.99 at CVS so I thought I'd try it out. The color is a bit too orangey than what I wanted but it's still really pretty and perfect for summer!

2. A plate of some of my favorite fruits: strawberries, green grapes, and peaches!

3. Steak with sautéd mushrooms and boiled broccoli/ glass of Moscato and with a few grapes. 

Blushing

(sweater and skinny jeans:F21/ flats:H&M/ bag:Aldo/ watch:Guess)

the infamous SF fog

These skinny jeans are probably the most perfect shade of pink I found - subtle but bright enough to somewhat make up for the gloominess of San Francisco weather. I don't think I even remember the last time  I wore jeans since my uniform in Davis always consists of shorts and some sandals. Also, I can't help but point out that the quality is a teeny bit better, yeah?? That's because I got a new camera (Nikon D3100) for my birthday. I always point out how my pictures are blurry/not very clear so this is a big upgrade from my iPhone and Panasonic Lumix! I'm trying to learn the ropes so for now I'm shooting on auto hahaha...newb. I know. 

21st

Last night I went out to dinner at a steakhouse in Sacramento to celebrate my 21st birthday! The place was soooo good. My prime rib was fantastic. I also got to order my first official drink ;) The funny part was that they didn't even card me! Kind of takes away from the whole experience haha but oh well. I had some fruity martini called the "Bocce Ball"-- quite pricey but it was expected from a steakhouse. I wore a black romper from Forever 21 with white diamond patterns along with a leopard print belt (leopard acts like a neutral in my book). Finished off the look with some really simple black ballet flats from H&M and a taupe wallet with gold studs from Charlotte Russe. The only accessory I wore was my watch from Guess!

P.S. the lighting made my hair look really orange in the picture, I know. It was the only picture I could get. I feel really weird when I feel like people are watching me take pictures.
