Recap: 10-17-11

How is everyone doing? My weekend went by as quickly as possible; but on Saturday, I participated in my first relay marathon for a cause. With barely any training, I ran the last leg of the marathon relay. I ran about 7.3 miles in about 1 hours 15mins. I was so difficult to do; but after I have completed the race, I felt a big accomplishment.

Now that the race is over, I am still struggling with a stiff and aching muscle. My thighs and legs hurts so much especially when I get up or walk around after sitting down long time. It is funny that that despite the aching muscle, I still wore my heels to work today. In all, I am beyond proud to be involved in a cause towards breast cancer.

I encourage everyone to get involved in a cause that is dear to your heart. Since this month is Breast Cancer Awareness month, don't forget to donate or make contribution towards the fight for Breast Cancer.

Have a wonderful weekend ahead!

Wear your pink and support Breast Cancer.

Metallic hues

How is everyone doing? I was in Atlanta for 3 days for a conference, which went well. I had the opportunity to network with different companies and students. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to meet up with some of my readers and bloggers from ATL. Hopefully, I will get another chance to meet them again.

Now that I am back to my reality, I have a bunch of assignments waiting for me. Thank goodness that I had today off from work to catch up, but I still had class tonight. I will be spending tonight finishing up on my study cases.

On another note, metallics are big for me this fall. I am in love with silver & gold metallics--there is something edgy and fun about those hues. I fell in love with the Zara metallic skirt and shoes once I saw it. I can get enough of the shoes as you can see from my previous outfit post here.

Stylishly yours...

Outfit: Zara pants, clutch, shoes; Nastygal cardigan; Michael Kors watch; earrings by Guinevere from Nordstrom

When I was putting this outfit together, I was thinking of a casual work Friday; this leads to happy hour and dinner with co-workers and friends. Colored pants are here to stay. We will be seeing lots of colored pants this fall. Instead of pairing these pants with bright colored blouses, pair them with warm and subtle fall colors like burgundy or navy.

Outfit: Zara pants, bag, blazer & shoes; YSL ring, Michael Kors watch; Hermes belt; 

... a great outfit for Fashion Night Out with girlfriends. Animal print is must-have for fall, but it doesn't mean you have to be covered in animal print from head-to-toe. Adding a black tee to the  outfit gives it a more relaxed look. Also, a blazer and orange belt add color to the outfit without being too "summer" bright. 

Outfit: Giuseppe-zanotti shoes, Chanel clutch, Asos romper, Bracelet--Kendra Scott from Nordstrom

For a date night, besides wanting to wear a cute short dress, you can also wear romper/playsuit. For example, the playsuit shown above has this sexy and classy appeal. For this outfit, the statement piece is the Giuseppe Zanotti wedge. Metallics are another trend to watch. They add an edge to an outfit without going overboard.

Have a wonderful Weekend!

Graffiti

How was everyone's weekend? My weekend started off greatly with a happy hour with my friends/coworkers. After some drinks and food, I headed off to celebrate with a friend of ours who was in town for Labor Day and also celebrated his wife's birthday.

Since this is Labor Day weekend here in the States, I am enjoying a long weekend. I pretty much slept in and enjoyed a mini BBQ with some friends that stopped over and squeezed in some studying and blog hopping :) 

The current shirt in the post is from Zara. For those that waited for Zara US online shopping, it is almost here. From  Sept. 7th you can shop online. Follow me on Facebook here because I will be sharing my Zara wish list ;)

Accessories: Gifted Necklace, Forever21 rings, Michael Kors Watch

I have had this bag for almost 4 years, but I have only used it twice. I can't even remember the online store where I got it from. :)

Wearing: Alexander Wang shoes

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. 

Have a lovely week ahead!
