Italy Day 5: ROME

Laduree in Rome!

Dress, Erin Fetherston____Shoes, New Balance____Bag, J. Crew____Sunglasses, Chloe____Watch, Target____Rings, DIY

When in Rome... I think Rome is the city that really made me fall deep in love with Italy. Everything about the city is beautiful and rich in history. The people are friendly, the food is amazing, and the street fashion is on point. There is so much to see in Rome, but it is all within walking distance from each other so we were able to see many of the major tourist spots in one day. 

Current update from Korea: Today, I went to a mNet K-pop concert! It was jam packed with die-hard fans (ahem.. me), and the venue was first-come-first-served standing room. We managed to squeeze near the stage and I was on TV for a whole 5 seconds! Very exciting in my book. It was awesome to see my favorite korean singers live, and so up close. I will post pictures when I get back to the States!

Summer is definitely flying by too fast, but I hope you are all enjoying the last few weeks!

Italy Day 4: PISA

Holding up the Leaning Tower of Pisa!

Dress, Juicy Couture____Shoes, Madewell____Bag, J.Crew

The fourth day in Italy was spent in Pisa, the location of the infamous Leaning Tower. It probably took a good half an hour to get the right angle and position to take the picture above^^^. It's actually pretty funny to look around and see all the tourists doing the same pose, looking like they are holding up the tower. It's amazing how the tower started to lean, but it is still holding up centuries later! 

As of now, I am still in Korea! I actually got my wisdom teeth pulled out yesterday, so my face resembles a chipmunk. Any tips on how to reduce swelling would be much appreciated. :P

Italy Day 3: FLORENCE

The weather in Italy was perfect everyday we were there. Sunny, mid to high 80's, and low humidity. I think this outfit is my definition of summer: a cropped bralette top and a circle skirt, with a gelato in hand to cool down. What's not to love? 

As you all know, I am in Seoul right now. It is the start of the monsoon season, so it's raining with no mercy. Hope you guys are staying dry, and don't forget to follow on Bloglovin or Facebook!

Italy Day 2: VENICE

Riding the Venice canal boat!

Dress, c/o eShakti____Shoes, New Balance____Bag, J. Crew____Sunglasses, Chloe

This outfit post is from Venice, the city on water. I used google and pin pictures on Pinterest of Venice years before I actually went there, because it was one of the places I for sure wanted to visit at least once in my life. It really is a one-of-a-kind place in the world. Every building is unique, and the roads are replaced by streams of water. It's really amazing how people built their homes on the water, and replace the cars with boats. The one word I can think of to truly capture what this city was like is MAGICAL.

Life has been crazy hectic lately... yet again I find myself in another country half way across the world, South Korea! (The homeland dundundunnn) Although I am exhausted from the 13 hour flight, it is awesome to see my family and friends again. I'm sure it is broad daylight in the states as I write this, but it is time for me to hit the hay here. So good night to me.

Duomo Cathedral!

Long time, no see bloggies!!!

Last week I was in possibly the most beautiful country in the world, Italy. This is the first post of "My week in Italy" series, where I spent my first day in Milan. 

As a fashion capital of the world, Milan was a great city to start off my trip down the Italian peninsula. My family and I stayed around the Duomo, which is the church in the last picture. I already know that I am going to overuse this term, but my jaw literally DROPPED when I saw this spectacular structure. It is in the middle of a large plaza, filled with tourists like myself, taking pictures as if we had nothing else to do. Right next to it was the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele, a mall with magnificent glass ceilings filled with fashion's top names. Being surrounded by such beauty is an amazing feeling. 

I hope you all enjoyed this post of Milan, and I am so excited to share the rest of my posts! I took over 1,000 pictures and videos so.....GET READY.

Hey guys!

This summer is already off to a busy start. The day after I got out of school, I hopped on a flight to Montreal to visit my sister for the week. Some people dread going to the airport and riding the plane, but I personally love it. I even enjoy the whole process of waiting in line for the security checkpoint, taking your liquids out, taking your shoes off, showing your boarding pass to someone every five feet, getting my Starbucks (hello caffeine), choosing a magazine for the flight (ELLE always has great articles), etc, etc... I don't know why but I think it is kind of fun! Every time I travel, I love observing the people around me (not in a creepy stalker way lol) and it amazes me how all sorts of people are in one airport, waiting to go to far places ranging from Des Moines to Cape Town! And then it makes me think, how lucky we are to be living in a time where we can travel across the world in a few hours. 

As always, my trip to Montreal flew by. It was awesome to be with my sister again and the weather was great for eye-shopping and finding the best cappuccino in town. We also watched Iron Man 3, which was very good but I went off on a short feminist tangent after it. I'll save that for another post... aka I don't want to scare anybody off. Besides that, I discovered that my whole wardrobe needs a 90's revival, starting with denim overalls and a leather fanny pack. The sad thing is, I'm not even joking. So if you know where I could find those two items, help a girl out!

Thank you so much for reading! I don't say this enough, but your comments truly make my day.
