Joie Faux Fur Wool Coat_All Black Outfit_Date Night in Malibu_Piano Concert_Adrienne Nguyen

Date night in Malibu consisted of a piano concert and Mediterranean food. Chad Lawson is one of my favorite pianists. He composes some of the most beautiful pieces which we had the honor of listening to over the weekend. In addition to performing all of my favorite pieces, I was introduced to some new ones. Learning the back story of these pieces gave them new meaning and it allowed me to conjure up new emotions.

I didn’t think I’d have the opportunity to speak to the man himself but I was able to chat and snap some pictures with Chad 🤩 He’s such a kind person! We got one of his vinyls to add to our growing collection! I also wanted his sheet music but it was unfortunately sold out when we got there.

Afterwards, we went to dinner at Taverna Tony in Malibu. It’s all about the vibes there with a live band and belly dancer! We were surprised at just how crowded it was at 10pm!

An all blue outfit to beat the hectic holiday rush! I wore this outfit during the Christmas season but haven't posted it until now! I wore my blue and yellow boucle jacket along with a lace collar bow tie top and high waisted sailor shorts. Although the jacket was already loud, I wanted to add some fun accessories and herein lies this Kate Spade floral 3D satchel. I made a review of the bag on my Youtube which you can watch below. This exact satchel isn't available anymore however, the plain version is and it comes in many different colors!

Modern Minimalistic Prep

Old Money Preppy Casual Outfit_Quiet Luxury Corduroy Blazer with Elbow Patches_Denim Capri Pants_Lady Dior Bag_Silver Sneakers_Adrienne Nguyen

This corduroy blazer was my holy grail in undergrad. I wore it so often since it was such an easy outerwear piece that went with everything. I recently took this jacket out of retirement and started giving it some more time to shine. People often say that black and brown don't mix but I do believe they complement each other very well. I love the contrast of the brown suede elbow patches and area under the lapel against the black corduroy. I wanted to pay homage to my undergrad self so I made this look minimalistic and preppy. I wore a simple white sweater underneath along with skinny denim. To give this a pop of color, I wore my silver sneakers. As a student, I relied on my big totes to carry all of my essentials including my laptop. Though I still have those totes, I wanted to create an outfit of something I would wear everyday and this Lady Dior is a bag I would pair with this look.
