Color-Fully Positive



So I have this weird thing about me when it comes to getting ready on a rainy or gloomy day. I gravitate towards more colors the gloomier it is. In other words, I wear my solid whites and blacks on a nice sunny day and then when it rains, I take the rainbow out of my closet. I guess it's a way of tricking my mind into thinking that I'm happy despite the oh-come-on-mother-nature kind of weather.


Now I never, I repeat n-e-v-e-r used to wear any yellows. In fact, I was actually scared of wearing any yellows because I thought it made me look like a lemon head. But long behold this sleeveless velour sweater was the first one to make it into the yellow category in my drawers. I think it was the material that intrigued my anti-yellow senses. I also love the way that it has both a pastel yellow and a bright strong yellow mixed together. The structured shoulders were also pleasing details. 






 I mean, even though it's probably is a mind trick, why not use it to pump in some endorphins into a muggy day? I know that it's been working for me ever since I decided to make up this crazy placebo. 

So why not be the happy one? After all, happiness is contagious.

Lazy Meets White


Nothing speaks better to a carefree soul than a silky yet sulky Alexander Wang t-shirt. The slight v-neck makes the shirt inseparable from the body as it smoothly blends onto the skin.


I'm not too nosey when it comes to shredded jean shorts. Honestly, I think I prefer cheap, comfortable ones over those that have extra zeros on their over-thought price tags. I'm happy with anything as long as they're high-waisted and shredded with gold or brass details. Cheers to Forever21 for making a pair that I will live in as long as the sun is out.

So after fighting off the lazy-osis, I make it to a local market. I spent most of my time in this aisle trying to decide on a salad dressing. I ended up getting Caesar. 


Nothing makes me happier than staring at perfectly round tomatoes. Is that weird?


If there's red wine,


you know there's white.






Welcome to my dinner menu. Some salad and a beef sausage or two, accompanied by Vogue.

Cupcakes In the Air


ImageImageImageImageImageImage
If I were to explain this cupcake cafe in one phrase, it would be"the perfect place to vibe with cupcakes and chill with your favorite people". This is the sweetest, most intriguing cupcake shop I've ever been in my life. Located in Georgetown, Baked and Wired is a sort of hidden cafe that deserves more attention than it actually gets. You can get everything from cupcakes, vegan cupcakes, biscottis, brownies, and pies. The coffee here? Now that's another story. The dark roast lingers in your mouth as you take a bite of the sweet cupcake and it's the perfect match. Oh, one more thing. You can even write notes on a napkin and stick it on their "napkin wall" and half the fun is coming back and looking for it. So there you have it, a great place to stop by if you're in the area.
