How I Manage Two Full-Time Jobs.

Hi friends! I know this phrase is like hearing nails on a chalkboard to some of you, BUT I have genuinely received this question more than any other question in the past year: “How do you manage both your full-time job as an attorney and your Instagram/blog?!” First, I want you to know that I treat […]

Skincare: Products & Tips.

Literally one of the best compliments I’ve ever received in my life, from THIS BABE nonetheless (the first time we met in person): “Wow, it’s not the Paris filter, your skin actually looks like that!” HAHA. Granted, she is one of my besties, and is always way too nice to me, but I do get lots […]

Blonde Hair Life: Products & Tips.

–same hair, different lighting– I probably don’t need to preface this (because asian), but I am not naturally blonde. My natural hair, is in fact, PITCH. BLACK. For the past few months, I’ve been going lighter & lighter – for summer & my quarter-life crisis – and with all that lightening, my hair needs some extra […]

Culottes Are Your New Best Friend.

CULOTTES ARE CUL. (“cool”~ see what I did there?) But really, culottes are my favorite right now because you can dress them up or down, they always look chic, AND they feel like freakin’ pajamas. WIN WIN. I got tons of questions on these Bershka super high-waisted, tie-waist, chambray culottes from my post the other […]

My #SephoraSquad App.

Hi babes~ This is a LONG one. I generally like to keep my blog posts at around 500 words; this one’s about 1300, but when I put the poll up on Instagram, more of you said you’d want to read this than not, so you’ve been warned~ If you watched my Instagram stories when I was […]

All the Peasant Tops.

There’s just something about a square neckline + puffy sleeves that make for the cutest, figure-flattering statement! At this point, I have about 10 in my closet, ready for spring and summer (another great thing about these tops is that they will transition perfectly into the hotter months), so I decided to round up some […]

My Fave Graphic Tees.

It seems like graphic tees are always on trend, but I’ve been seeing them everywhere these days. My favorite way to wear them is cropped, with a french tuck, or knotted, and with cuffed sleeves. This elevates the look just a bit from looking like you’re “just wearing your boyfriend’s t-shirt,” unless that’s what you’re going […]

March: NO BUY MONTH.

This, ladies & gentlemen, is a monumental moment in history. I am officially declaring March a NO BUY MONTH. I have never in my life attempted this or wanted to for any period of time, let alone an entire month, so I thought I’d bring you along on this month-long journey. Here we go~ the […]

THANK YOU FOR 10K!!

Rather than ugly cry and not be able to voice my thoughts & feelings to you in 15-second increments on Instagram, I wanted to share a bit of myself and why this means so much to me with you here. ★★★ I’ve lived through my fair share of traumas and feel that I have lived […]
