I am currently attending Harvard and pursuing a degree in Humanities. My passion is books and writing. Books taught me things about myself, the world, and society in ways I never thought possible. It is thanks to books I know who I am and allowed me to discover my passion for writing. There is nothing like crafting characters and capturing the voice of a story, bringing it to life on the pages. Thanks to every bookish bestie in the book world, it has allowed me to spread my joy of reading to people worldwide!

So it’s springtime and that means it’s time to pull out all your favorite springtime outfits to rock! I just got this new solid white high/low from Original Piece Boutique. It was the last one and I couldn’t refuse getting it especially when I saw it was my size! It turned out to be a little chilly out the day I decided to wear it so I decided to add a bright color with this hot pink cardigan from Target! It went perfect with my dress, since my dress wasn’t pattern and was a neutral color! I paired it with…

So today I took a long stroll outside and headed home when it reached sunset. It gave me time to clear my head and just enjoy finally a nice sunny day. I could hear the birds chirp and sound of my own thoughts. As I walked back, my shoes in my hand, because let’s admit high heels aren’t always the most comfortable thing to wear, especially on a walk… 😉 I started to think that you don’t always have to follow the path that ‘you’ think is right. Sometimes you have to take the road less traveled because admit it, it…

So I decided for the ‘pre-oscars’ to do a gown what a jewel accent down the front. I have to say I’m a huge Oscars fan! I love all the gowns and usually watch the entire red carpet with all the celebrities. I have to say some of their outfits I would never consider wearing, but some are so stunning I would love to just try them on (as I’m sure you guys would too!) 🙂 So I got Oscars inspired while I was getting ready and decided let’s go ‘preoscars gown’! I found this dress from Original Piece boutique…

So today I admit it was really chilly, but that wasn’t going to stop me from having a beach day! I decided to wear my new duck boot Sperry’s which I love! They have a lining on the inside that keeps your feet so warm! I paired them with simple black leggings and my oversized sweatshirt that is monogramed from Marley&Lilly. I also wore my new statement necklace from Forever21 that I got for only $8! I went for the preppy, yet laid back vide for my beach day today! The weather was amazing. Truly if it wasn’t so cold…

So many of you write in and ask how I do my nails! And NOW I can show YOU! For the first-time I launched a nail tutorial video on my spring break nails! [youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LDS4it_VQk] I was shopping and saw these Orly nail polish colors and I had to get them as soon as I saw them! They reminded me of spring break! The bright accent color added that pop of color I’ve been searching for. The blue or Skinny Dip Orly polish is my favorite so I used that as my base for all the nails. I decided to an…
