<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I started watching the series yesterday, and I have caught up on everything. I'll say the beginning was a bit nyeh for me, but it can be because I haven't read the actual play myself (shame) and I didn't know what was happening. The whole Story is viewed from various perspectives using three channels created by the characters in the series, and it's definitely really really interesting. The entire series is produced by The Candle Wasters, and it may not be as greatly produced as say, Emma Approved, but it seriously is so great. I don't think my compliments even give it enough justice. My favorite character has to be Benedick, and the jokes are honestly so funny. The actors also have accents. THE ACCENTS ARE AMAZING</span></div>

You all get a special bonus post with three outfits, what a deal! I would separate them into three different posts but the three outfits incorporate a few of the same articles of clothing which is why it only seemed fitting but to put them all together.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br />
When you go traveling, everyone says to pack light. I recently went on a family road trip to San Francisco, where all eight of us were crammed into a Sienna van and only had enough trunk space to bring two suitcases for the adults, and a small duffel bag for each kid. Packing light was definitely the motto for this trip. Throughout the three outfits, you will probably see the same jacket, shoes, and probably jeans, but one thing changes in every outfit. In this post, I try to show you guys that wearing the same thing doesn't always have to be bad, especially if you know what goes well with what.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br />
Let's get on to the outfits!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">// Day 1 // As you can see, there are those trusty white Converse shoes of mine again (I really do need to buy a new pair of shoes). Onto the outfit itself, I bought the shirt maybe about a year ago and I found it in the sale rack at Urban Outfitters, what a deal! It's a baseball tee, which unfortunately you can't see because I am wearing a jacket, but I definitely like it due to the fact that my parents do say that I've washed it so many times that it's in the laundry bin every week. What can I say? Baseball tees are definitely a big must have for me. The jeans I also managed to snag in a sale rack at Urban Outfitters, and I definitely like the whole light wash on top and dark wash on the bottom. I managed to make it work with different outfits, so it was definitely worth the $30-$40 I paid. And last but not least, the jacket. I bought it for swim season a few months back but after this trip, I'm definitely not only wearing it for practice and meets. The jacket tied the whole outfit together and gave it a sporty kind of vibe. The white V stripe made the jacket more noticeable, hence getting more attention to the outfit itself. In all honesty, I had doubts about wearing the jacket at first because I wasn't really sure it would go with the outfit, but now that I look at it, I definitely like it.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">// Day 2 // Don't mind the messed up hair, I was at the top of Twin Peaks (which if you guys don't know has a killer view of the city either during sunrise or sunset) and it was extremely windy so it was hard to take a nice picture without my hair standing up. Anyways, the only thing that changed in these pictures is the scenery and the shirt. I got this shirt from my cousin, not really sure where he bought it, but I definitely liked it. I really liked that the shirt was Nike which really went well with the TYR jacket. It definitely gave a sports vibe to the outfit, and not gonna lie, it was also pretty comfy.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">// Day 3 // Finally, the last outfit. See now there's some new things in the outfit. Instead of jeans, it's shorts, and it's a different t-shirt! Ha, well let me start off by first saying that the Monterey Bay Aquarium is definitely one of my FAVORITE places ever. I really felt like a little kid running around the entire aquarium looking at all the different exhibits. I mean, I was so excited when I found out that we were going to the aquarium, because why wouldn't you be excited? You get to see all these cool things like fish and jellyfish and stuff. I really wish I had more time to stay there. Anyways, I pushed up the sleeves to the jacket and paired it together with a pair of khaki shorts and a blue shirt from Superdry. I really liked how the black jacket went really well with the shorts. The entire outfit itself kind of balanced each other out with the different colors that ranged from dark to light, and it just really went well together. Definitely one of my favorites for a summer but cool day.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">And that is all for today! I hope you all enjoyed the outfits, although a lot of them incorporated some of the same clothes. I hope this proves a point that maybe sometimes, wearing some of the same clothes isn't as bad and you can actually make it look better than the last time. I'm not advocating wearing the same outfit for an entire week but wearing parts of the outfit again within the week isn't too bad. If you don't have enough room to bring a lot of clothes on a trip, then clothes like these will definitely help you out -- space-wise and fashion-wise. I hope you all have a wonderful week and I will see you all again!</span></div>

</div><div><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I must also add that these are all old, "out of season"'d, so most aren't sold in stores because of the come-and-go cycle of consumer markets. BUT, there are TONS that are so so similar because many things are now considered "retro". Good news for me, because I love recycling pieces that I've grown fond of!</span></div><div><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

Unfortunately it's that time of year again where school's back in session, and we're all just trying to get by...yet this time around it's the <i>last year of high school</i>. So why not try looking decent for the first day of school? I know, I know. Trying to choose an outfit in the morning besides the #OTP of a tee and jeans can seem pretty strenuous, but throughout these next series of posts I'm hoping to inspire you with a variety of different back to school ideas.<br />

I love this <a href="http://hollisterco.com/" target="_blank">Fountain Valley Midi Skirt</a> from Hollister because it has this sort of eccentric-gypsy-meets-beachy-look, and to match this skirt I decided to go with just a solid white top to contrast the intricate patterned design. It was comfortable and simple because of how light the fabric was, so moving around campus in this 'fit was no burden at all. </div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Greyson Chance, the now 16-year-old who went viral in 2010 on the Ellen Show covering Lady Gaga's "Paparazzi" at his 6th grade talent show, released a new single that we are absolutely crazy over. "Thrilla in Manila", a funky, seemingly Michael Jackson-esque song is sure to be a hit. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The song was inspired by the boxing match between Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali in 1975. Greyson's new album, <i>Planet X,</i> is continued to be streaming on his sound cloud, and you can have a chance to listen to it below as well! </span></div>

</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is for sure a recommendation for you guys. We'll be definitely on the lookout for Greyson's upcoming songs for the new album, so stay tuned for more! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's still summer, and boy, was it humid! With constantly going on subways and commuting from the Financial district to the Upper East Side definitely got us lost a few times, but hey, it's what comes with traveling in New York. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What I love the most about New York is that you literally can go casual to the dressiest outfit, and no one really cares. It's the atmosphere, the business, and the vibe of the entire city that just makes NY so attractive.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Hi there! This was my 'fit last Sunday for my grandmother's 84th birthday, so figured I'd go with something colorful, bright, and something considerably appropriate (I had to wear a cardi over this but the humid weather would not permit). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Starting off, I bought this printed romper from this new store I came across called Shasa in the Glendale Galleria the other day, which by the way was completely redone in order for them to keep up with the competitive neighboring Americana. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> This bag came from Forever 21, and honestly this was probably the second time I have used this bag due to how selective this bright orange color is, so finally when I came across this romper I knew it was the perfect opportunity to use it!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> To finish it off, I wore a pair of Molly Wooden Wedge Sandals from Banana Republic. These are my favorite pair of wedges because of how comfortable they are and can basically go with almost any piece of clothing in my closet. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> For accessories, I'm wearing my usual MK Rose Gold Watch paired with a bracelet from a little boutique I came across in New Jersey a few years back. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I hope you're all having a wonderful day my readers!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I took a little trip to the New York this past weekend, and used this app, which locates safe and reliable local cars in an area. Now this isn't used all around the US, but in most popular cities.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u>So this is what happens</u>:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">You request a ride. Uber uses your GPS location to map out your area, then proceeds to notify a car that is near you to pick you up (to go to your desired destination later on). The screen would show the driver's name, photo, license plate number, and contact. Another unique aspect of using this app--it's cash free. It tracks your ride, and evaluates how much it would cost for the fare, and charges straight to your credit card. That way, you can just say thank you, and say goodbye without the awkwardness of slipping cash in last minute. And get this. It's cheaper than a taxi. Like, significantly cheaper. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Now this isn't a "licensed company", which could potentially be a factor for cities to consider allowing it in the future if it grows bigger. Taxis, are licensed. But taxis, are also expensive.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Another part of this app, which many drivers like, is the ability to rate and get rated.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The customer usually rates the driver out of the usual five stars, and that is shown publicly. But, the driver also rates the customer. This is not shown publicly to the the customer, but displayed for other drivers to know as well. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">It is as nervous and interesting for both to be in the same position, but it seems pretty fair to me. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Drivers are amiable, polite, and usually bring up Uber as either a conversation starter or a topic in general. Clean cars, mostly, and quite understanding when I had to lug my heavy luggage in their cars as well.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The app itself is developed by Uber Technologies in Delaware. They offer the service as a personal use only, and you should be 18+. Legal-wise, there are many gray areas. There are services such as Uber Black (more expensive), which it is perfectly legal for those to be driven to the airport, now, on the other hand, other like applications like UberX, who are authorized to drive, but just not to the airport. And keep in mind that the latter is cheaper. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Uber is legal, but you must understand which service you are using. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In all, Uber has proved to me as convenient as it is efficient as a network-based app. It updates often, has a clean typeface, and I've come to terms that it isn't creepy and weird after all.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you'd like to learn more, visit <a href="http://www.uber.com/">www.uber.com</a> or download the app in the App Store or Google Play! If you've used the app before don't be afraid to comment about it.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'll be posting more about that trip to the East Coast in the next few posts, so be sure to check those out too!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hope you all are enjoying your summer,</span><br />

I hope you guys enjoy all my late night posts as well as one of my newest outfits incorporating some clothes you've seen in the past--my trusty white Converse shoes and Hollister green pants.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So in this outfit, I wore a denim long sleeve with a white tee underneath. I paired the combination together with my favorite Hollister green pants. For the shoes, it's once again my trusty white Chuck Taylor Converse shoes. I really do need a new pair of shoes, ha! And though I'm wearing a watch that's made for running, it is also a multi-purpose watch that I can wear not just for running but also for a casual day out.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Good evening lovelies!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I just thought I'd share my church fit with all of ya'll from earlier today, or actually something I had thrown together since a late night along with a 10:30 am service the next day do not really allow enough time to get ready. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Anyways, I had gone with a black rendition of the halter neck top (this time from <a href="http://www.brandymelvilleusa.com/" target="_blank">Brandy Melville</a>) I had worn in my previous post. Reason being is that these tops are so versatile that they make almost any outfit look put together. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> To go with my halter neck top I went with this floral slit maxi skirt from <a href="http://www.forever21.com/" target="_blank">Forever 21</a>. The floral pattern managed to make this almost entirely black on black look summery yet completely appropriate for Sunday festivities. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> For shoes I went with a pair of black heels from <a href="http://francosarto.com/" target="_blank">Franco Sarto</a>'s Dress shoe collection to complete the dominantly black colored outfit. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The accessories I have are my Ray-Ban Aviators and Patent Pink <a href="http://shop.guess.com/en/" target="_blank">Guess</a> Leather Crossbody Bag. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">If you know me personally, you would know that music is definitely one of my fortes. One of my favorite things to do is discovering new artists or new music that I think people will like. I find it extremely satisfying when I find a song or artist and recommend it to someone and they love it!</span></div>
<div style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">As individuals, everyone has different music tastes. Some like country, some like pop, some like electro, some like classical, and the list goes on. Music is the type of thing that comes and goes--for example, one may be obsessed with Paramore and then a month or two later, they become obsessed with a different band. Music goes in a cycle and people don't just stay with one artist forever. Our music tastes differ depending on our moods, what is currently the newest hype, or other people's recommendations.</span></div>
<div style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Because our music taste changes almost every month because of newly released music or blasts from the past, I decided to make a hashtag series which will have three parts-- #TSC, #TAC, & #TMA--and I will do each monthly. They stand for "Top Song Choices", "Top Album Choices", and "Top Music Artists" respectively. My goal is to introduce you guys to music that you will find enjoyable--whether it is music that is already mainstream or completely underground. Now let's jam out to some music together!</span></div>

She manages to twist the moral into the lyrics with a catchy beat and she draws listeners in with her voice. Meghan Trainor has a unique voice that makes you want to go to the 60's and jam out in a diner with your friends with this blasting through a jukebox, kind of like Grease, HA!</span></div>

With the remix, Hippie Sabotage manages to make a slow song into a slow song with an awesome beat. The way that they artfully craft the song makes me want to listen to it on repeat. This is one of the more catchier remixes of a song that I have heard so far.</span></div>

Yeah, this isn't really considered a single anymore because MKTO has come out with an album but this is one of my favorites from that album. Classic has a feel-good type of beat and is one of those songs that you want to play during summer events like concerts, parties, etc. and jam out with friends. The beat is definitely great and it has a catchy tune to it.</span></div>

I've really liked this song for a while but I've recently started to listen to it more often. It's a laid back kind of song with a chill vibe, and a lot of the lyrics are extremely catchy. One of my favorite lines is, "Girl why is you lying, girl why you Mufasa. Yeah, mi casa su casa." The song is filled with great lyrics and catchy ones as well, and it's a definite kickback kind of song.</span></div>

I love how AJR turned the distinct "I'm ready" quote from Spongebob into a beat. That was one of the things that caught my attention and made me listen to the song. I was definitely not disappointed by this song once I gave it a chance. AJR hooks you in with a great intro and beat and hooks you even further in with their great voices as well as lyrics.</span></div>

This song has a mellow beat with lyrics that really make you want to sing along especially where she sings "I still love, I still love, I still love." This is definitely a catchy tune and has a great hidden message. If you aren't a fan of Nicki, you might be surprised once you hear this song and how different it is.</span></div>

Maps is definitely a great listen and it's extremely catchy. I'm glad that they have decided to release this as their first single because it makes me excited for when they release their next album because this song is definitely a good one.</span></div>

I find it hilarious that they used "Michelle Obama, purse so heavy getting Oprah dollars" as their chorus. It's extremely catchy and sticks to your brain easily. This song is definitely a great summer hit considering how many people have gone crazy about this. In all honesty, compared to their past songs from the Better Together - EP, this song has more modern slang in the song such as "bae" and "nae nae." Fifth Harmony's voices harmonize really well together which make this song a lot better and lovable.</span></div>

Kat Dahlia has a unique voice that is slightly raspy at times when she hits certain notes which makes me want to listen to it all over again just to hear hit those notes. This song was also produced with a catchy beat and to me, it is an extremely catchy tune.</span></div>

Although it has a limited amount of lyrics, the beat is so <i>freaking</i> good. This is the kind of song that I want to blast super loud if I throw a party, or if me and my friends are driving around, this is the song I would be blasting in the car.

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This is such an easy snack that you can easily take on the go, and if you might think that this takes awhile to make, then I suggest just pre-making them the night before or at least cutting up your apples. Here's how to make it:</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> Ingredients:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Apples</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Peanut Butter (Almond or Nutella, your choice)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Granola (Chia Seeds or Almond Bits)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Dark Chocolate Drizzle</span></li>
</ul>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<ol>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">First, cut up an apple of your choice. I would suggest that prior to putting the toppings, dry off the side of the apple with skin by placing them on top of towels so the peanut butter will easily stay in place (I had to learn this the hard way). </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Second, whether you like peanut butter, almond butter, or even nutella, spread an even amount on top of each apple. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Next, you have the option of either putting granola, chia seeds, or almond bits. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Last but not least, drizzle some dark chocolate on top of each one and there you have it!</span></li>
</ol>
<div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If you have time to heat up the griddle, then this recipe should take you no more than 10-15 minutes!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> Ingredients:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Almond (or Peanut) Butter</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Strawberries and Bananas (sliced)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Wheat Tortilla</span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<ol>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">First, heat up the griddle (or pan) and spread a small and even amount of coconut oil on top. This ensures that the wheat tortilla will not stick to the griddle or pan. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Second, on a separate plate, spread almond or peanut butter on to the wheat tortilla and the strawberry and banana slices evenly, followed by another wheat tortilla to place on top. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Third, place the entire quesadilla onto the griddle for about 20-25 seconds, depending on whether you want your quesadilla to be slightly crisp or still soft. </span></li>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-large;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This is definitely one of my favorite recipes, noted for its simple preparation and natural ingredients, so it's probably going to be the easiest (and healthiest!) pancake you will ever make. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Ingredients:</span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">1 whole banana (make sure it's ripe, as this guarantees the sweetness of your pancakes) </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">2 whole eggs</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Your choice of adding fruits or any other additional toppings</span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<ol>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Heat your griddle/pan to medium. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If you have a blender or a Magic Bullet, just pop in all the ingredients and blend! If you're mixing them all by hand, make sure that all the pieces of banana are mashed so it'll be smooth sailing for once you pour it onto the griddle. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Then wait of about 20-30 seconds, flip, and your done!</span></li>
</ol>
</div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I really hope you all enjoy these really quick and easy recipes, so let me know if you have any suggestions on how to make these better! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here's for the geeks, nerds, and those who just are in the closet interested on how that other side lives. Created by Rocket Jump (think Freddie Wong). I'm obsessed, and patiently waiting for Season Three. Something like that immersive experience of wow, what if we all lived in the universe where the best gamer was the most popular guy in school? Like what are even cheerleaders when you can just create your own digital crowd am I right, folks?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now, I'm not much of a "predict the plot twist" kind of girl, but this film got me just in the right mood when I first watched it. It's the perfect girl-meets-billionaire type of film--you can just tell by it's description.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 16px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is one of my all-time favorite romantic comedies. Starring my favorite Nat Wolff, Kristen Bell, Lily Collins, and Greg Kinnear. It's charming, refreshing, and just such a great independent movie as a whole.

Well, I'm coming at you guys with an outfit that I was pretty proud to have paired together, ha! I completely understand how hard it is sometimes to pair up a good-looking outfit, especially if you're a guy. Our selections are really little, but I'm proud to say that I managed to pull a nice outfit together. </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">At first sight when I picked the clothes out, I thought, "None of these even match! How do I even know that they'll go nicely together?" But then during the photo shoot, I realized that what I needed was confidence in my choice and acknowledged that they actually did go well together. Once I finally realized that, it was so much easier to wear the whole ensemble. Moral of the story - have confidence in what you wear and if you think you look good in it, then other people will think that as well. Now, onto the outfit!</span></div>

I was at an Urban Outfitters location in Arizona, during spring break, and this was one of the shirts that caught my eye as I searched through the racks to find a nice, affordable shirt. The design and patterns in this shirt got me hooked and the fact that it was a pocket tee sealed the deal. I knew I had to get it, and it was the only one they had at the store and I was so glad it turned out to be my size because it turned out to be a smart buy. The blue shirt serves as a nice contrast to the entire outfit. And the patterns are mesmerizing, making anyone who wears this a definite eye catcher.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I bought the green pants online at Hollister earlier this year, and it was a purchase that I definitely do not regret. I have worn these pants multiple times with different shirts and shoes but this pairing is by far one of my favorites. The pants greatly complement the blue shirt and go great with the white Chuck Taylors. These pants were also another smart buy even if it did cost a little more than expected.</span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> You saw these shoes in my former post - "Red, White & Blue." I bought the white Chuck Taylors at a Nordstrom Rack in Arizona, as well, during spring break, and they have been one of my greatest investments <i>ever</i>. If any of our readers are looking into buying a new pair of shoes, I highly recommend Converse. They are extremely comfortable and coordinate well with most outfits. These white Converse have been one of my signature shoes in most of my outfits--in school and out of school-- and I'm extremely happy with them.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm so ecstatic to say that the <i>HUNT IS OVER. </i>The hunt for a reasonably priced origami skort that is! I've looked around Santa Monica, Topanga, and not one of them had what I was looking for. Sure, maybe Express did, but no way am I paying sixty dollars for something as simple as a plain blue skort... Which ironically I've been obsessing over ever since I saw Negin Mirsalehi's post two months ago. But in my rendition of her white and blue scheme, I went with the same<a href="http://www.charlotterusse.com/" target="_blank"> </a>styled halter neck top from </span><a href="http://www.charlotterusse.com/" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" target="_blank">Charlotte Russe</a><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> as the one in my most recent (and first) post as opposed to the white embellished top she paired with her skort.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But anyways, Since it technically </span><i style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">is </i><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Fourth of July right now, why not throw some </span><b style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">hints of red </b><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">in there? </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I decided to wear a stack of bangles my cousin brought back from her trip to Bangladesh three years ago for the first time.. I don't know why, I personally thought how nice these patterns all contrasted against my solid color color scheme of white and blue. But you can definitely find the same kinds of bangles from the accessories section in stores like H&M, Forever 21, or Charlotte Russe. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On the other hand, or wrist I should say, is a </span><a href="http://www.michaelkors.com/" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" target="_blank">Michael Kors</a><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Chronograph Parker Rose-Gold Watch; just one of my favorite accessories to keep at hand.. get it? okay I'll stop. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For other accessories I went with a solid red </span><a href="http://www.michaelkors.com/" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" target="_blank">Michael Kors</a><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Fulton crossbody bag to bring out the few red bangles on my wrist, and of course trying to stay relevant to Independence day colors. </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Literally -- with a twist! I bought these beauts a couple weeks ago to wear to work, and there's no going back -- I'm absolutely in love. Not only are these flats comfortable, but it feels like I'm walking on a cloud. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Well, a very soft, leather-y cloud.</span></span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Introducing <u><b>Jessica Simpson's Mandalaye Elastic Ballet Flats</b></u>. I was definitely skeptical at first--because ballet flats? Really? </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But the awesome thing about these babies are that they, well first, don't fall off your feet! It's basically guaranteed. The ankle straps don't hurt and don't cause any pain whatsoever. The suede/leather makes any outfit look polished and shows that you don't just go for any of those old black flats all the time--you're raising the bar just a little bit higher. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I can rave and compliment even more, but there were complications in the beginning. I've read the reviews online about these flats, and they're definitely mixed. Most are positive, but what I've noticed is that the negative feedback are mostly about how they cause blisters the first time they wore the flats. My only concern is that, have they ever learned about "breaking in" a shoe? I had the same problem in the beginning, but stick a couple band-aids, like any other time a woman would wear heels ("pain demands to be felt"... and endured for beauty, ladies), and make sure that you take care of yourself and the flats. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Once you break them in a little on the ankle where the elastic is, they're perfectly comfortable. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>I purchased them here at <a href="http://www1.macys.com/shop/product/jessica-simpson-mandalaye-elastic-ballet-flats?ID=1094230&CategoryID=55750#fn=sp%3D1%26spc%3D95%26ruleId%3D78%26slotId%3D1" target="_blank">Macys</a>. </b></span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Be comfortable when you're going to work. I fidget tons when I wear dresses and shorts - so that's a huge no - and especially in a professional environment, shorties are definitely discouraged and viewed as unprofessional. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I woke up almost late this morning, so nothing easier than a breezy graphic tee, jeans, and simple accessories. Always be prepared for those "in a hurry" moments -- especially when you have prior commitments.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Starting off, I'm wearing these <b>aztec printed palazzo pants</b> from Forever 21 with a <b>string halter neck top</b> from Charlotte Russe. At first glance you may be thinking how strangely flamboyant these pants are, BUT WAIT. Before you judge a pair of pants on a clothing rack, why not try them on? </span><br />

Yet I started realizing how these bright patterned pants started catching on during the summer time. Luckily, I gave these a try and immediately became infatuated with them because of how the material settled so nicely and flowed with every step I took, and how they made a simple, white halter neck top look like I somewhat tried to look decent for the day. These kinds of clothing, where my skin's able to breathe during these hot and humid days while still attaining a unique and eccentric look, are what I try to stick to for the duration of the season. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's finally that time of the year where everyone seems to throw a BBQ pool party and the heat is so unbearable that you can barely stand to be outside. But the night sky is filled with the light of fireworks and sparklers and all that anyone can hear are the children's "ooh's" & "aah's" mixed with the loud bangs of fireworks which makes it all worth it. But the big question that you have to ask yourself on this day is -- what can you wear to these type of events without dying in the heat but still look good? And that's where I come in.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As you can tell, I was obviously inspired by the American flag to wear such a "get-up". I fully incorporated all the colors of the flag--red, white, and blue--into a casual but classy outfit that could be worn to any kind of event like a BBQ or a firework showing. The red polo and the blue shorts paired together gives the wearer a kind of sophisticated but laid-back appearance, and the white shoes serve as a huge contrast to all the dark shades. </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">White </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">makes the entire ensemble pop and the darker clothes more noticeable.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm wearing:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> · <u>a white crop top</u> · <i>Forever 21</i> · What I love about this top is that it literally goes with anything. When I got this, I remember my friend saying "why would you buy that? it's so boring." How is this boring? It just lets you concentrate on whatever stylish jeans or skirt you want to wear, and it's definitely able to be used constantly.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">· <u>red skater skirt</u> · <i>H&M</i> · I actually haven't used this skirt in a while--so it really depends on where you're going that day. It can be dressed up and dressed down, and it's bright & noticeable. (it's also become increasingly popular and fits on anyone amazingly well!)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">· <u>blue flats</u> · <i>Soda Brand</i> · These are my favorite flats. Worn & torn, but Soda Brand always makes them comfortable. Check their collections out at <a href="http://www.sodashoes.com/">http://www.sodashoes.com</a>! Adds a bold and patriotic touch to the outfit.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Accessories: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Black watch, flower jeweled necklace with black petals. The blacks work together and create a sort of polished look overall. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">· <i>white shirt</i> · Since this oldie is from mom's closet, I'm afraid I can't find a site. But since this is quite a simple one, it's easy to describe. I'm quite insecure about my arms, especially in photos, but with this top, it covers what needs to be covered. Rolled up sleeves, looking edgy yet professional.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Pair the white tee with jeans and bright flats to add flair. Watch, necklace, earrings? Definitely! Just remember that business casual should always have you looking good, but you must always dress for comfort first.</span></div>
