Month: September 2012

Dear Diary,

 On day 5 of my Parisian adventure, I spent all day at the Champs Elysees, mostly satisfying my sweet tooth. First stop…LADUREE! A luxury pastry shop, and the inventor of the double-decker macarons.

Dear Diary,

Why did I have to be so late to fashion night out?? I had a blast and met some amazing people, but I was so bummed to miss the early action. The sightseeing and museums are to be blamed for consuming all my time.  I knew I should have had my event shoes packed up, and ready to go in my purse before leaving the house. It’s always a drag when you have to go back and change. I was only able to gather very little from the night’s festivities. It got really dark, so I couldn’t get any awesome shots with my camera :-(.

In other news, how awesome is it that a fashion night out invitation was placed in my September issue of Vogue Paris?

KENZO

Inside Michael Kors, the DJ was dressed to impress and killing it!

Dear Diary,

It was my 1st Fashion Night Out in Paris, and I thought to myself… why not go BOLD in fashion central? So I did a mint peplum, a scarf print shirt with pops of red to match my fiery red hair! I mean the 2 Parisian men in the photo below seem to love the ensemble no? Lol

 

                         JIL PINEDA bow tie, ZARA shirt, skirt, and shoes, URBAN OUTFITTERS satchel.

                                               Stay tuned for the event photos :D.

                                                                          xoxo!!

Dear Diary,

I returned to the Louvre on a full stomach, and some comfy shoes. I had to prepare myself for the excessive walking through the many areas of the museum.

So the vest has an 80s quality that I find very bad ass!! I saw it in my best bud’s luggage when he came to visit me last summer, and there was no way in heck I was going to let him take it back (thanks Nicky! :D)

FRENCHI long sleeve, GUESS denim vest, VINTAGE shorts and belt, JEFFREY CAMPBELL flats, BRANDY MELVILLE long cross necklace, (the short necklace is from a street vendor in Ghana).

Hope you guys love the photos, stay tuned for my next posting to see more of my parisian adventures :D.

Dear Diary,

On day 2 of my Paris trip, I went to the Louvre Museum… on an empty stomach! That was certainly one of the worse decisions I could ever make. I was unable to peruse the galleries on the inside, so I decided to take some quick shots outside, and rush to grab a bite.

Dear Diary,

Sugarlips is a fashion brand from Los Angeles, CA. They team up with bloggers, and they were kind enough to ask me to join! I wore this floral number by the brand on my visit to the Eiffel Tower in Paris.

Dear Diary,

Muchos muchos apologies for the delay in posts. I was making preparations for a trip abroad, and let me just tell ya traveling overseas is no joke! These are some shots I took on my 1st day in Switzerland. It is such a beautiful country, but a little chilly.
