Hello people!
First of all, Happy Easter to those who celebrate it! And second of all, I finally found the time to post on here, yay! My term is almost over so professors have been going crazy on cramming exams, quizzes, and extra homework which I don't understand why. We literally have about five months to do all that and they decide to give us all the work last minute. And they say students procrastinate, hmp.
Anyway, so yesterday I went to New York to get my hair trimmed and I wore a jean shirt with jeans *gasps dramatically* The reason for the gasp was cause I used to hate jean on jean action! I thought it looked extra weird and just no. Then one of my favorite beauty bloggers (Camila Coelho) posted a picture on her Instagram looking flawless (she probably woke up like that, see what I did there?) in a jean shirt with jeans outfit. I was so amazed on how she pulled it off so amazing, that I had to give it a chance. So here I am today, obsessed over how I looked yesterday haha. A jean with jeans looks so casual and effortless that you can do anything with it.
I kinda play my outfit up with a leather jacket, a statement necklace and my MK purse but then kept it casual wearing my white high-top Converse. Since this outfit is like a blank canvas, I think you should take advantage of that and add accessories whether they're as bold as mine or wearing some bracelets with your sleeves rolled up.
So after getting my haircut, my mom and I took a stroll around New York. It's hard not to want to do something in a city so full of life.

One thing I notice a lot is when people come to New York, they want to see the typical tourists spots like Times Square, the Statue of Liberty, etc. but after coming here so much, I notice how stunning the regular buildings are. It's kind of ironic cause this is a city and most envision modern buildings but these have a more antique feel to it and they need to be appreciate more.

Street art here is also a killa! When Banksy tagged New York, I was on a mission to find a few (you can see them on my Instagram). There are so many more creative people here, it genuinely blows my mind. Most people just see the work in Manhattan but when I was on my way to my aunt's house, passing through Brooklyn, I was starstruck. There are empty streets where it's just factories and you will find some amazing work.

And on our way home, my mom and I decided to go to the Empire State Building just cause it looked nice even though it was past midnight and we still had to drive back to New Jersey. It was nice walking around and greeting drunk people but when I got home, I plopped on my bed and knocked out cold.
So I hope everyone has a blessed day and has fun picking Easter eggs!
Love,
