bring on the blazer

Thank you all for the birthday wishes! I had a blast yesterday and plan to keep celebrating into the weekend.  I'll do a birthday post sometime next week with pictures from my themed party!

Here's an outfit I wore recently- I really wanted to wear this blazer, but at first the outfit felt a little too masculine for me.  Then I added some girly touches by wearing a pink ruffly shirt underneath and a pearl ring and voilà, totally me!  Once again reminding me of how girly my style is, hehe :)

blazer- ae, pink shirt- Lefties,
jeans- forever 21, boots- urban original

class ring, pearl ring- forever 21

Remember the outfit from yesterday? Well this is its sister outfit, but this time, I'm wearing my flat oxfords which were featured in an earlier post.

last laughs in london

I can't believe that tomorrow I will be back in the States! I feel like I just left the country yesterday! The funny thing is that I feel that this time next week, I probably will have settled into my routine and being abroad will feel so far away.  I've had a really good time in London, relaxing with my cousins and siblings, doing a little bit of shopping, and exploring a bit. Even though I'm seriously low on cash, I was able to pick up a few items:

I love nail polish, clearly! I'm excited to complete my rainbow (I needed yellow and orange) and also to snag that really bright blue color and the gunmetal color that I've been chasing after for months!

The H&M ring I wanted so badly! I finally tracked it down and I have to say I'm very happy :)

Black oxfords- I think these will be a great addition to my wardrobe. I can't wait to wear them!

Also, I got my hair done! Although it was admittedly a nice change having my natural hair out for a while, I really needed to get a no fuss hairdo done since school will be starting in a bit. In the pics below you can see the transition from afro to straightened natural hair to twist extensions. Fun fact- some of my really good friends have never seen my natural hair!

And last but not least, I promised some pictures of my day in central London. I'm going to miss this city and I can't wait to come back!

my cousin told me this is the "Times Square" of London
