Thanksgiving Vacation

Went to So Cal for Thanksgiving with my sister's family, mom, and grandma.

It was nice hanging out with my grandmama and hearing her talk so much!

Much thanks to my sis & ron for planning the trip. Everyone gained weight during this trip because of them! But no one is complaining......









Had Thanksgiving Dinner @ Fogo De Chao's in Beverly Hills












Roscoe's Chicken & Waffles!




Hsi Lai Temple - Hacienda Heights














More Food of course. Best Ramen to date!









Sister enjoying Pink's hot dogs.....







@ the grove, where I got to meet up with Daryl for some smoothies.

Santana Row

Nina turned 25 and her boyfriend, Rolo, threw her a nice lil surprise birthday dinner @ santana row.
Everyone played dress up, including the boys...who looked quite nice when they're all cleaned up.




me and zachary. he probably likes playing dress-up more than i do! =X heh

neiman marcus - last call!

it all started when i told my sister that sometimes @ the neiman marcus last call stores, they carry louboutins. she of course wanted to see it for herself. low and behold, we found a pair (but it wasn't very cute), but then there were other shoes to compensate! manolos, chloe, prada, gucci, and the list goes on....all in my size! they were all for under 400 and with an additional 20% off!

i considered these proenza schouler boots, but decided i shouldn't spend $200ish on myself during the holiday season.

then there were these robert clergerie shoes. marked down to under 150, and not including the 20% off.

i aslo wanted these beverly feldman booties. love the gold zippers! but passed on these too! i'm literally thinking about going back and getting the proenza schoulers? no, the clergerie.....sigh, i dunno.

and for kicks, here's ty trying on these d&g booties. she loved trying on all of the designer heels there. she was in heaven with me.

Earrings

I finally found a way to organize my earrings without having to take up vanity space. Best of all, it cost me $0. I just took extra shelf lining mat I had and stuck my earrings on there, and then hung it up.

Inspiring

they get to bring a puppy to the white house....=)

golden gate park

saturday was the grand opening of the california academy of sciences. it was free admission that day, so of course we wanted in on that. unfortunately, after trying to find parking for about 30-40 minutes and arriving there around 9:45am (admission time was at 9am), the line was wrapped around the park and they were turning people away.




at least we weren't standing in line for x amount of minutes/hours when they told us that.

instead, we made the most of our day by walking around the park, eating sushi for lunch, and getting ice cream (pistachio and mocha flavor for me)

















i wore what zach calls my 'space shoes' aka the adidas by stella mccartney Lontu.

Jordan 11

zach is an avid jordan collector so i too own a few since his love for them has transpired on me. one of the first pair he ever got me was the Jordan 11, black & white patent leather. unfortunately, it's about a 1/2 size too small for me now =( i guess my feet kinda grew after high school. i also have the Jordan 14, which is also about a 1/2 size too small too.

they sit in my closet, but i decided i will let my niece make use of them. she's 9 and she fits them, so i wanted her to wear these now while she still can.

ty can wear these when i'm around to supervise, or else zach will kill me if he sees any damage done to them. these shoes probably sits on top of a lot of people's jordan collections, so i'm still hanging on to them for value, monetary and personal.

i should have worn jordans too, but i was too lazy to change my outfit. instead, i opted for my coach shoes.
