Reporting the latest trend: The Choker Dress.
It's only Wednesday but the weekend vibes are strong with this look! I love the minimal design and the allure it brings. The choker detail alone already makes a statement.
To complete the look, I added my favorite belt for a bohemian feel and my suede booties to match. Just throw on your favorite trench coat and you're ready for a night out! Shop the look below:

Ready to break hearts with this Valentine's Day look.
Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to dress up and do something fun. Whether you’re going on a romantic date or a girls’ night out, a LBD is always appropriate. This year I’m going for rebel chic: my trusty cropped moto, cut-out bodycon dress and pointy-toe heels to create the look.
Talking about Valentine's Day, my ideal date would be to get out of town—to go to a city I’ve never been to. I live for exploring new places and trying new things! Then later, ending the night with a nice dinner—food is definitely the way to my heart. ;)
This year, I celebrated Valentine’s Day a little early for the reason that I’ll be out of town, attending NYFW. I went to Chicago this past weekend with my boyfriend celebrating our anniversary and it was nothing sort of amazing. I will save the deets for the next blog post so stay tuned!

This LBD number will turn heads while you’re out painting the town red.
I’m completely obsessed with the back lace-up detail. I’ve always fancied anything lace-up and you can totally tell by looking at my shoe collection-I own too many! But it doesn’t hurt to keep the collection growing, right? These platform lace-ups have answered my “the higher the heel, the closer to heaven” lace-up DREAM. They add a few inches to this petite body of mine.
Side note: I’ve been totally lacking on my posts because life is getting in the way (aka work, events, and so many upcoming projects!). But no need to be alarmed, I’m slowly (but surely) getting back into it! So watch out for some cool projects coming your way :)

This season calls for light jackets! I layered this piece over one of my favorite LBD’s for the FashionTap App launch party last Saturday and it was just the cherry on top of my outfit. Everyone was hanging out at the gorgeous backyard and it was a bit chilly (at least for me) that night, so a light jacket was very appropriate. This flowy duster jacket is a fun alternative for the camel trench coat. I love how the color is almost nude, and the dual drawstring waist gives you some shape. You can also easily fold up the sleeves when it gets a bit warm in the room.

The little black dress, better known as, the LBD. Coco Chanel started the trend and it has remained a classic ever since. It’s probably the most versatile staple in your closet because you can dress it up or down and can match anything you already own. I have a growing LBD collection in my closet, because well, for the very reason that it’s so versatile. You can instantly look dressed up without even trying. I love how this LBD shows my figure, and the criss-cross details with low back that makes the dress an eye-catcher. I got this dress from Modlook 29 when I visited their store in LA and it was such a great experience. They have so many selections and were very helpful. Don’t forget to check them out here, or better yet, give them a visit at their store!

The new year is almost here!!! It's crazy how 2014 flew like a breeze. You know what they say, time flies when you're having fun...and working hard!
This past year has been good to me and I can't wait to see what 2015 has in store. I'm thankful for all the opportunities and experiences I encountered, and especially to those who has supported me all throughout the way. This coming year will be a great one and I can't wait to share it with all of you. So, cheers to the new year!
My last blog post of the year are my NYE outfit options that I shot with Ryan Chua (@ryanbyryanchua). It was the first time meeting and shooting with him but we already had an instant connection. I had so much fun! He shoots many fashion bloggers, and I'm not surprised because he's amazing at what he does.
So here are the photos and I can't wait to show you guys!!!
The first look is all black with lil bit of edge and a lil bit of sparkle. I wanted to balance off the glamorous look of the sequins with the roughness of my moto jacket.

The second look is very glitz and glam with the gold sequins and white fur. Nothing says party like a gold ensemble, right?

Til next time, loves!

I love a good view spot but never thought it would be the best place to shoot pictures at, especially at night. When Jeff (@yojefff) took me to a view spot to shoot an outfit, I was doubtful at first. But he proved me wrong, and I loved how the pictures came out! We also got to enjoy the view for a bit while shooting.
A little black dress is a must in your closet. This is the Rolling in the Deep V Black Strapless Dress from LuLu*s that I got awhile back. I love the sweetheart AND deep V neckline. The dress is simple, yet sophisticated. It’s the perfect little back dress that can be dressed up or down. I chose to pair it with a denim jacket to dress it down since I was going for a more casual look. The dress looks effortlessly gorgeous by itself, but I decided to wear a statement necklace to complete my outfit.

I wanted to give off a more edgy vibe for this second look, and the American Apparel disco pants does the job. I love how these pants fit me like a glove. It’s hard for me to find a pair of high-waisted pants that fit me well like these do.
I also love how effortless it is; throw on any top and you’re good to go! These pants never fail to grab people’s attention. So if you’re going somewhere and planning to make a statement, you should definitely get a pair.

I told Jeff how I like wire fences so he took me to this spot:
This was actually the before picture when I broke the fence...
Ha ha, I'm kidding! I couldn't help but laugh after taking that shot.
