Summer Recap, Part 2: New York

A week after I returned from Florida, I jetted off to one of my favorite cities in the States...New York! The four days I was there was filled with shopping, exploring various neighborhoods, and eating. I wish I could have stayed longer!

A trip to New York isn't complete without some New York Cheesecake! This one was from a delicious Irish pub!  

 One night I went to see the Broadway musical If/Then starring Idina Menzel, widely known for her role in Disney's Frozen. This musical was absolutely amazing! Not only was Menzel's voice stunning, but the plot was very compelling, as it presented to possible story lines that resulted a single choice and the chain reaction of this choice.

Of course I had to walk around the Upper East side after strolling through Central Park.

I did some shopping in China Town, mainly for presents. I found the cutest skin care shop and the best bubble tea!

The above bao buns were from a lovely Asian Fusion restaurant close to Time Square and was my last meal in the City.

Summer Recap, Part 1: Florida

I know I haven't posted in a long time, and I'm extremely sorry! I have been super busy with working two jobs, preparing for university, spending time with friends before we all go our separate ways, and traveling. With the start of fashion month (first up is New York Fashion Week!), I have been inspired and compelled to begin posting again.

Since summer officially ended two days ago, I have decided to start by posting a multipart travel diary series from my adventures this past summer. Travel diaries are always one of my favorite type of posts to view. I hope you enjoy!

One of the first trips I took this summer was my family's annual trip to Florida!

A Day in LA

Over the weekend, I took a trip to Los Angeles! The sun. The food. The shopping! The golden coast is just so picturesque that I had to share some photos from my trip.

Sunnies: Marc Jacobs

Top: RD style

I just bought these sunnies and sweater from the Saks off Fifth, and the merchandise was so reasonable! They were having a great sale: buy 1 get 2 free for clearance items!

This weekend was so lovely! I wish I could have stayed longer. Have a wonderful spring!

2014 & Reflections of 2013

2013 was such a wonderful, and I was particularly blessed during the year. In early January, I took the annual trip to Florida with my family and some friends for New Years. For spring break, I headed to Utah for some skiing and snowshoeing. In June, I took another trip to Florida; in July, I went on a road trip out East to look at colleges (cities included Baltimore, Washington DC, and Philadelphia) and went on a Scandinavian/Russian Cruise. (I did a post on the latter, which you can read HERE.) Finally ending the year back in Florida for New Years.

Along with these trips, I also started this blog in July! What a wonderful year. I can't wait to see what this new year has in store!

Happy 2014!
