I thought I was going to attach this to the end of my skincare routine video (which will come out soon), so that explains why at the end I say "real goodbye".  Sorry for the camera being so shaky!!!!

(fail?) outfits of the day ft John and PJ

Jerry's iphone became handy this past weekend in taking these high quality amazing photos.  :P  haha just kiddin.

Something a little different by featuring my friends' outfits I liked A LOT.

PJ didn't know I was doing a photoshoot for John....fail

I kept trying to take photos and every time I swear someone would walk in front of the camera right when I call "3".....fail.  I caught John laughing, but did you notice that PJ is also posing unintentionally?

You wouldn't think Crocs would carry cute shoes, but I'm obsessed with these Carlie flats.  I bought these for rainy days because I needed waterproof shoes that aren't stuffy like rainboots, and these are perfect!  They are super comfy to walk in since every step is cushioned, and I like how the soles have small bumps to increase blood circulation to your feet (circulating blood is always a good thing, especially in cold classrooms).  I think these might be my new go-to shoes for this coming fall season when I start school.  I am considering buying the black version and the leopard print version (Carlie animal wave in bronze) to spice up my wardrobe.  I don't have any animal print, but the Crocs leopard print flats are subtle enough for me.
I had an amazing meal from Mango, as always.  The mango ceviche added a nice flavor to the usually boring tilapia.  But I can't spend too much time thinking about yummy food because I have to wake up super early tomorrow for community service day.  So I'm going to catch some zzz's.


stay chic, alice
