socks: Daiso

I’m in love with these socks that I bought at Daiso (for $1.50!); there’s actually a hole for the heel so that the socks don’t bunch up at the feet:

They’re so cute! And they keep you warm too

I went Mother’s Day shopping for my mom today at Valley Fair. I bought her a box of tea (samplers) so she can see which type of tea she likes. I know she’s into black and herbal tea, but I thought a sampler would be great so she can taste a variety! I bought her a 30 pack, so I’m sure she’ll find something she likes!

I also went window shopping and found a really cute F21 dress! They only had one available in my size, and the clasp was broken So I had to pay the extra $6 for shipping to order it online. Too bad it’ll arrive in 5~10 days (not in time for my dinner date with dBF this weekend)!

Reminiscing the college days…

Today I woke up and thought, Gee I’ve been trying way too hard to look “professional” or “older” now, that I don’t really have much fun with dressing up!

So today’s ODJ was all about dressing how I used to in the good old college days. Of course not as crazy (i.e., no more 10 inch ko-gal sneakers with puffy legwarmer socks that come up to my knees ), but definitely something that captured the essence of my style a few years back. I’m totally still digging my Tokidoki bag, but I just don’t use it as much nowadays. I don’t think I’m too old for tokidoki am I?

I miss the good ol’ college days where I could wear whatever I want in a city where nobody gives a F (a la Berkeley, CA). It used to be so much fun clashing eye-popping colors with heels that never fail to be under 7″ in height. Oh how I miss those days.
