VALENTINE'S DAY: QI XI

Every year the 7th day of the 7th month in the Chinese lunar calendar is Chinese Valentine's day aka Qi Xi. It was August 2nd this year and this was the outfit I wore for Qi Xi. Mr. SF and I don't really celebrate Qi Xi as much as February 14th, but we still spend time together and grab some yummy food that we both enjoy. We treat that day a little more casually than Feb14th. To find something to wear for Qi Xi, I was thinking I wanted to look for something lacey but not so formal. It should be romantic but fun. When I saw this romper from Windsor, I knew it was exactly what I was looking for. I really adore the back, the crochet strap and the lace overlay of the romper. I wore it during the day and at night. I'm thinking about wearing it out to a rooftop happy hour with friends this week. I can't wait:)

Thank you so much for reading. I hope you guys all had a great weekend and are ready to start another week:) XO

GREY AREA

The morning and the night time here in New York City has actually gotten a little chilly recently and I'm definitely getting the feeling that fall is just around the corner. I wanted some layers and something chic that I could wear during this type of weather. Ta da then I found this blazer, haha. Everything I threw on here is old, only the grey blazer is new. I wanted to be able to mix and match it with whatever I already have in my closet. It'll look good if you try layering it with a shirt as well. A grey blazer is definitely a wardrobe essential that can help transition your outfits into the Fall:)

Thank you so much for stopping by and for all of your encouraging comments. Have a great weekend:)

TRULY MADLY DEEPLY HIGH LOW

Soft texture, long back hem and casual but yet still cool are all reasons why this tunic is the newest piece in my closet. It's so versatile that I can wear it with jeans or shorts and either sneakers or causal sandals. Since we’re about to transition into a new season, this will be great for the fall. With casual sandals, I can go to a happy hour with friends or do a number of other activities. Sometimes I feel like wearing something simple and having an outfit to be able to really just get things done. If that’s my goal, I’d wear a pair of Converses to achieve this.

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a great Wednesday:) XO

COLD SHOULDER

Happy Monday, loves! How was your weekend? I hope you guys had a great one. I finally finished moving this past weekend, but am still trying to finish unpacking in my new apartment. Moving is a lot of work indeed. But at least last night I finally got to enjoy my new balcony a little bit. 

I started wearing more off shoulder pieces last year. This time I added one more item to my off shoulder collection, this off shoulder top with a soft weave in a lime color. So in love with it. 

Thank you so much for reading and have a great Monday:) XO

WINDSOR CHECKMATE

Do you guys remember that grid on grid outfit I wore a while ago? It's not surprising that I wore these checker pants the other day and if you're looking to elevate your style instantly, they are one of the best choices and easiest way to do that. 

This total look is from Windsor Store, a womenswear company that has been around since 1973 based in California. I actually came across their site last year when friend of mine Cindy asked me to pick out a prom dress for her younger sister. I found a really cute dress at an awesome price that made her sister so happy. The brand is best known for special occasion dresses, but I also love other cute items from their site. 

As you guys can see in the photos, my hair is different, ha. A good hair day just makes everything feel 100 times better. I was feeling fantastic when I wore this outfit out with friends. I wish everyday was a good hair day. How about you? :) 

Thank you so much for stopping by and have an amazing Wednesday:) XO

SUMMER KALEIDOSCOPE

Happy Monday, loves! Hope you guys all had a great weekend. After a one month long apartment search, I finally found a one bedroom apartment that met all my requirements in the City. It's a bit sad to say goodbye to my lovely studio where I've lived for a few years. But I'm so looking forward to the new apartment, a new life and most importantly, the bigger closet.

If you guys follow me on Instagram @shallwesasa, you probably already saw this New York mini in Kaleidoscope skirt from Lovers+Friends. The tulip wrap skirt with the vibrant print is such a pretty piece that I totally adore. I normally don't like my whole look this crowded, so I paired it with a white eyelet crop top. The breezy material is perfect for the summer months. The short bell sleeve definitely adds more femininity to the look. A top like this is so versatile because you can easily wear it with shorts, a maxi or jeans. It's a romantic ladylike look indeed.

Thank you so much for reading and have a great beginning of the week.

KEDS: 22

It feels like a perfect night to dress up like hipsters
And make fun of our exes, uh uh, uh uh.

...

Uh oh!
I don't know about you
But I'm feeling 22
Everything will be alright
If you keep me next to you
You don't know about me
But I'll bet you want to
Everything will be alright
If we just keep dancing like we're
22, ooh-ooh
...

I can't stop humming 22. Keds make me feel young, fun and colorful. When I think of Keds, I think of Taylor Swift and 22. If you guys follow me on my Instagram @shallwesasa, you probably already saw these two pairs of cute Keds. How cute are they! Taylor's cute polka dot dress matches perfectly with these canvas sneakers. Overalls, shorts and jeans are also great for these Keds as well. I definitely love young looks, but I also wanted create a few looks that are great for someone a little older that fit me. These looks are more casual, cool and comfy. I paired the starburst Keds with my Kenzo sweatshirt and clutch. For the other pair of Keds, these Kate Spade pointer Cheetah sneakers in cyber orange, I paired them with a color tee and my favorite sunglsses. Grab a bite with friends, hop on a citibike, go to the park or stroll around the city, those are all great events and outings for me to wear these casual and fun looks all summer long. Looking at these pictures just makes me want to go to a fun picnic with my friends and have a good laugh. Which pair of Keds do you like better? :)
