Peking



shirt: american apparel
shorts: pac sun
shoes: charlotte russe

Extremely busy day today. After working all day, Tony and I got in the car and drove to his house. Right after that we went to dinner at a great restaurant called Peking (hence the name of the title). I am SO ready for a great night of sleep. I wish I could have had some natural light for the pictures, but I think the dogs look great. Rex and Roman are the kindest, sweetest dogs and would never hurt a fly, but you would never guess that by looking at them! They look like beasts!

My hair is in a french braid done to the side and tucked under so that it looks like I have shorter hair.  I think my favorite part of this is that the sear sucker shorts and polo shirt give it a preppy appeal, but the distressed, almost acid washed look of the shirt and the combat boot-like shoes give it a dark side. Oh and did I mention? TGIF!!

Ginseng and Honey




shirt: american apparel
skirt: a'gaci
shoes: forever 21
bandeau: random amazon vendor

Today was a very busy day! I had several meetings today to discuss what will come of the rest of my research this summer. I'm quite fond of this outfit so I posted it elsewhere as well here on my blog. My hair is in this really cool looking fall through effect french braid on both sides, but you can only see the left side. The title comes from my latest obsession with Arizona green tea with ginseng and honey. So amazing! That's all for now.

casual wednesdays

                                                            super casual on campus

                                                     note the sweet feather earrings


sweater: gap
t-shirt: boyfriend's (Tony) hanes v-neck undershirt
shorts: pac sun
belt: gap
shoes: target
earrings: pac sun

This is what I wore today. I normally wouldn't have worn white with white but there was something I loved about this especially with the bright blue in the sweater. (Also the white makes me look super tan!) I wore my hair in a messy fishtail braid on the side because I was much too lazy to do anything to it this morning, but I thought it looked pretty good. The earrings are probably my favorite part of this outfit but the picture that Tony took doesn't capture their awesomeness quite as well as I would have liked. I'm hoping to find my niche at this blogging thing pretty soon. Let me know what you think. Compliments and criticism welcomed.
