My animal instinct prediction...

Just kidding. I don't have any animal instincts. Took me a while to even train my doggy to listen to my commands.

My prediction this upcoming season? Animal pendant and charms are going to be huge in jewelry and accessories. You might have already seen this trend popping up here and there. 

I'm currently coveting them especially the ones with tiger and lion prints or heads. 

This trend is also one of the styles I'm cautiously picking up (even though I'm loving it) because I don't typically stray towards animal prints let alone wear an animal charm on my body. 

But it is time for a change this year to be bold! What are some pieces you've found yourself heading towards lately that you've never thought you would?

What a funny...

Pinterest is dangerous. 

It'll keep literally lock at the screen for hours. Even without words, the coolest, prettiest pictures can keep me clicking away. 

Below is one of the cutest and funniest games from back in the days. Can anyone remember? 

Yup, it's Battleship!


Okay, I'm not going into "battle" but today's definitely a casual comfy day.

Currently I am...

I got this fun idea from Emily over at Blue Dog Belle to express how one is currently feeling.

I'm trying to this out now, let's see how I feel about it at the end...I encourage everyone to try it also! =)

Currently I am... 

Annoyed that the post office isn't closer to my place. Traveling there is a bit of a hassle and the service there isn't the best. =/ Anyone feel that way about their post office?

Listening to Rilo Kiley's Silver Lining (please check it out!) I have this sudden interest in Indie Pop. Anyone know of any good Indie bands I can check out?

Watching Say Yes to the Dress (and WAY too much of it) Why? Idk, nor am I engaged!

Reading a romance novel and Freakonomics (so interesting) - the romance novel made me cry because it was so sweet and Freakonomics brought me back to reality.

Wondering if I'm getting sick, the scratchy throats and sniffles or is it because I just read a book that made me cried. Okay, is it weird to cry even though it's just a book not something like a movie?

Feeling soo sleepy but shouldn't sleep because I won't be able to get a good nights rest by taking a nap now so I'll just sit here like a zombie.

Loving and hating the urge to go shopping. Spring is coming and I must I must be ready!

Missing my bed! Only to find my dog has taken it over.

Looking Forward To the weekend already - on a Monday, how sad is that??

Wearing the most comfortable sweats I have. Monday is just not doing it for me today.

Obsessing over jewelry! A sudden love for vintage rhinestone diamond jewelry. What are you gals obsessing over?

Look at what I found on Pinterest. Is this not one of the handiest ideas ever?!

Something new everyday...

One of my New Year's resolution that I'm still trying to keep up with is try something new everyday - no matter how small it is. For example, I tried vegan for a week and the other day I decided to take a new road I've never tried before on the way home. 

Yesterday I went to a networking event on my own and met a hilarious guy who moved from Texas to Los Angeles to be a comedian. I was completely in awe of his determination and have never met anyone like him. So that was cool.

Not sure what new thing I shall do today. But who knows where life will take you right? Especially in LA.

Have you gals tried something new lately where you were nicely surprised by it's outcome? 

Today I pulled out my polka dots, pearls & greens. By the way I love this little clutch that I got from Target for $10!

I hardly wear polka dots (I only have two polka dot pieces) and I'm happy to sport it today! I would love to know what you gals would dare to wear.

What I do on Singles Awareness Day aka Valentine's Day

Yup that's what my friends and I call today - Singles Awareness Day!

Is there a usual routine you guys fall into for Valentine's Day? For example, dinner and a movie, dinner and a stroll, dinner (that's it). 

I like to spend this day watching my favorite rom-coms and romance dramas. For example, my all time favorite is Pride & Prejudice. And I've seen it twice today already and the days not even over. 

Okay, I saw it last night after 12 am and I saw bits of it today during lunch. So that counts right? 

It reminds me that you will never know where you find someone that interests - even if it's the person you were not attracted or disliked from the beginning. You Just Never Know.

So I'm wrapping myself up today with my fur buddy (my vest) and quite possibly, just maybe watch my fav movie again when I get home. I promise I'll stop tomorrow (quite possibly maybe).

Weird messages on your blog

Yesterday I posted a few items I'm loving that are in my fav color at the moment, electric yellow. My title mentions sunglasses. Today I receive this message in of my comments:

"Approximately 20.5 million Americans (17.2%) over age 40 have a cataract in at least one eye, and rates are expected to rise to over 30 million by 2020. Wearing sunglass, especially early in life, may reduce the risk of cataracts."


Now that above is an interesting fact. But I also received sunglasses ads sales below it. I know I haven't received my fair share of weird spam message yet since I'm new to blogging and I didn't turn on the feature to "prove that you are a human" so it's my bad.

Oh by the way, have you ever heard the voice that voices to you what the numbers and letters you're suppose to type are? It's for the spam blocking feature when you're trying to leave a comment. 

I listened to it once and I regretted listening to it in the dark with only my laptop on. It sounded like the exorcist was reciting the numbers in the slowest possible way.

Here's something to brighten up my day - yellow!

You might want to wear your sunglasses

In one of my previous posts I mentioned my sudden love for bright, electric colors - especially electric yellow.

So you might want to wear your sunglasses now because it's about to get really bright in here!

You know what I love to wear with electric colors? Light gray. It's muted, subtle and definitely makes the electric color pop more than it already does.

These are just some of my current favs. What about yours?

Also I'm participating is Style Elixir's Style Session link-up. So please do join and meet some of the great women I have met! See you gals over there!

Here's one of my most fav outfits I'm contributing to as part of the Style Sessions:

I just can't get over it
