Have you ever heard Rosie Huntington Whiteley talk before? She has the cutest Brit accent plus puckers to die for!

Thanks so much for the birthday wishes everyone. Guess what I got as a gift? A WAFFLE MAKER!!! I'm so going to try and make a banana + strawberry one like the one I ate at Eggs n' Things! I'll tell you how it turns out.

I thought it was high time I started showing you all what I got up to in California for the past 6 weeks. To start with- I spent 2 lovely days bumming around on the beach and a funny story: saw Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez eating choco ice cream attached to the hip. Do you wanna see pics/??!! Of course I had to stalk them for a bit, it's what tourists dooooooooo.

On another note, the following week is gonna be a biggie. I start school tomorrow and Tuesday is MY BIRTHDAY!!! Argh!

Rebecca Minkoff Fall/Winter 2011 Collection

"Inspired by Charlotte Kemp Muhl, the collection embodies the urban gypsy, a juxtaposition of luxury and the bohemian girl. Unexpected mixed textures such as supple leather and rich tweeds are shown alongside fluid chiffon and subtle sequins. The idea of an eclectic style is highlighted by graceful strokes of painterly stripes and custom prints from Liberty that metamorphose into delicate lace and lush sweaters. "

I love, love, LOVE wearable collections like these. They're just soooooo pretty to look at, to touch, to wear. I love the jackets (especially the red one and oh, the biker!), the printed pants, red shorts and all the super cute shoes. Are we all enjoying the wonderful collections from NYFW so far?

Unfortunately I couldn't find any shots of Miss Rosie without her bf in the picture so this will just have to make do. I love her bohemian yet edgy style in general but what she's wearing above looks so comfy and just perfect for summer. I'm definitely on the lookout for an ankle-grazer sheer cardigan or a crochet vest. When I was in LA I saw a similar thing in an All Saints store but it was way too pricey. Maybe I will have better luck in a thrift store or something. Btw, nice shades Mr. Statham.

Edit: Something like this would be even better (from Quiksilver Holiday Collection 2011 via Quiksilver)

My philosophy is that us girls deserve to get chocolates everyday but especially so on Valentine's Day (I'm thinking landslide of chocs here, people). So, I hope you had a good one yesterday everyone! :)

I'm baaaaaaaaaaack. Most definitely physically in Seoul but I think I left my brain in LA (having the worst jet lag ever). My eyes opened at exactly four in the morning and I have been munching on airplane cookies and tackling a gazillion posts on bloglovin' ever since. Being MIA over the net for two weeks definitely feels like a form of social suicide, lol. Let's start off Sunday morning with a few pics of some stylish ladies and their outfits I would wear in a heartbeat. That and a parka over everything. Do you know how cold it is in Seoul right now? Right, I'm gonna shut up now- here I go again.

It's great to be back.
