Back in Chevy Chase

Today my mother and I were back in Chevy Chase, to run some errands. As I mentioned before, I really love Chevy Chase, it's the perfect mix between a happening downtown, sophisticated living, and art. While I didn't get the chance to really do my thing because we were in such a hurry (and it was close to 100°) but I did capture the few moments where we actually stood still.

Our Day in Chinatown

Yesterday I had the best day I've had in a really long time! I went on an impromptu visit to Philadelphia with three of my very best friends. It was so last minute and I had been running errands previously so I didn't have time to get as dressed up as I would have liked, but regardless we had such a good time.

My good friend Chang is interning for an interior design studio in Philly this summer so she doesn't get the chance to come home so often. So her sister and my good friend, Joyce, decided it would be a good idea to go up and pay her a visit and spend some time with her. So Joyce, Bethanie and I all decided to go see her.

A Trip to South Street

I took a trip to South St. this weekend. South Street is such an ecclectic combination of shops and restaurants, it definitely sticks out to me compared to the other sections of Philadelphia. My mother and I took the trip to get me a new hat because my friend crushed my other one.  Getting the hat actually turned out to be the last thing we did. The day was interesting and for the first time I brought my camera to document some of our stops. We stopped at a few consignment shops, boutiques, a jewelry shop, and finally Hats in the Belfry for the cherry on top. It was a fun day and I got lots of stares and even some screams because of my platforms!

On a Rainy Day!

On a gross and rainy day like today, one definitely needs something to make the day a little bit brighter. For me having an outfit that makes a statement always makes the rain a little bit more bearable. Before it used to be quite difficult to find pieces that really were stylish while still maintaing functionality but that is a worry long gone. Fashion has met practicality!

For all prices and locations of where to buy the items head to my Polyvore account! You might even find some pieces for the rind that you love even more. With that, enjoy the rain guys!!
