Greetings, everyone! My sincere apologies for being M.I.A. - I just moved into my new home! I made so many fond memories at my old place... so of course tears were shed however, I am excited to embark on a new adventure in San Diego! I spent the last few weeks packing up my life and tossing away unwanted clothes, home goods, etc. I really could not believe the amount of clutter I acquired over the years but then again, I did live in one home my entire life. Anyways, I hired the most amazing movers that were able to pack up and take care of all my belongings - including my piano! After they left, my old house felt so much bigger but the feeling of abandonment became real.
As the afternoon came at my new place, I found myself in the midst of a plethora of boxes. I didn't feel like I could call this my new home. It was missing that solid, strong connection I created at my old place - something hard to come by... something irreplaceable. I know it might sound odd but I grew very fond of my past home. I was so attached that I decided to go back to my old house for one last night even though I already cut the electricity - fortunately, the water remained on for 48 hours! I slept in a sleeping bag on the floor by candlelight - totally romantic, right? It was hard to say goodbye but it'll always have a place in my heart. I have so many pictures and I took something away from it - both literally and figuratively.
I don't know when I'll be comfortable calling my new place, my home but it's an issue that I believe will be resolved within time. Until then, I'll keep myself busy by unpacking and eating way too much take-out for my own good. I can say I am beyond thrilled to be a full time student again - more on this soon! On another note, I finally pulled out these adorable white culottes and paired them with my striped sailor crop top with a bow in the back. This is the perfect outfit for a summer day out at any beach or coastal place.

Even though it's sunny year round in California, I'm quite glad Spring arrived! Pastels, floral prints... Yes, I know "groundbreaking" but it just tickles me! I cannot wait to get my hands on some key pieces that caught my eye at Zara, Banana Republic, and J. Crew! I will probably make a Spring Essentials post in the near future!
Spring gives me a chance to empty out my closet. I scavenge through all my stuff each year but I find myself unable to let go of anything. I take down many things only to find myself putting them back up - does anyone else have this problem? I've been better with donating my clothes or selling them on Poshmark though I become attached with so many of my things. This time will be different. IT MUST. My closet is ready to burst so stay updated with my Poshmark closet; I will be updating it with a bunch of things this April! Until next time!

Hello everyone! Sorry for the blog hiatus - I experienced some technical issues (i.e., my laptop died). Nevertheless, the boyfriend recovered all my files - it just took me a while to filter through the pictures! I know I'm always talking about the weather in my blog posts but it's just peculiar. Even though it's still Winter, we're experiencing scorching temperatures (90 degrees) and mucky winds; I do love how I can put my newly acquired Spring pieces to use!
Anyways, these pictures were obviously taken some time ago. I found this belted flare double breasted coat hiding away on the side of my closet. It's chunky enough to keep me warm and toasty but better yet, it's from Forever 21. Now unless the coat I'm wearing has some sort of fabulous design on it, I love layering things on top. Whether it's a faux fur stole like the one here or piles of necklaces, I make an effort to keep my outfit interesting. If you're one of my followers/readers, then you've seen this stole before: HERE - I'm also belting it in my previous post to add more definition to my waist. I would say this is a preppy look that works for school or a casual day out. I left what I wore underneath this coat for another post in the future. Until next time!
