Hey guys! I'm finally home from my weekend in Los Angeles and have a slew of photos and updates to share. I've finally begun wrapping up my applications to colleges and the relief is so great. I will also be officially starting my job as a brand consultant and stylist at the 2b Bebe headquarters in Brisbane (California) this month and I'm already looking forward to pulling pieces out from the sample closet and working closely with the staff. I will definitely feel that much closer to the Kardashians, in terms of clothing. With the arrival of the year's end, I am feeling extremely optimistic about the future and new year. Fingers crossed!

It's that time of year when the paradox of the slow yet quick festive build-up into Christmas and New year strikes. And before you know it, you're struck on how quickly an entire year just flew by, just like that! In other news, I will be taking a road trip south to Los Angeles this Thanksgiving weekend. I have been in dire need of this excursion and it'll be perfect for a getaway. Stay tuned for photo diaries of my trip when I come back! Have a great Thanksgiving, my fellow Americanas! xoxo

city of gold

I love San Francisco: the weather, historical culture significance, New York City vibe, old Victorian architecture, cold slaps of wind, vintage shops and overall the easy-going energies and eclectic dressing of its residents. Even as a native of the city of gold, each visit back gifts me with more memories and surprises in its nooks and crannies.

"Gatsby believed in the green  light, the orgastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that’s no matter - tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther. . . . And then one fine morning - so we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past."
