40% off @ NM Last Call Center!

Heard about this sale yesterday and decided to check it out today.  Found a pair of Chloe 2119 in burgundy color, surprisingly it sits well on my nose without touching my face like so many other Chloe sunglasses do.  And it was about $70 down from $290!

Also found the Sam Edelman Queenie boots I have been waiting for the right price!  Though they are half size bigger, I got them anyway.  Sexy and comfy at the same time!

                            

Outing with My New RM Ruby Clutch

Met with one of my friends from SF for lunch at Manhattan Beach today and took my new Rebecca Minkoff ruby 3 zip clutch out to take some pictures.  Love the color!

Here is another picture of me with the new bag but with full length of strap.

                  

Gulf Coast Grill (Cajun) @ San Diego

Went to Gulf Coast Grill @ SD last weekend with my family.  Never been there before, so didn't know what to expect except knowing it was a Cajun restaurant.  It turned out it was quite good, food were delicious and staffs were very friendly, ambient was cozy and warm.  We ordered Fried Calamari as appetizer,

then for main course, we ordered Mixed Seafood Grill, Seafood Pan Roast, Big Easy & Cajun Combo.

 

Will love to go back sometime!
                              

Loot from Rebecca Minkoff Sample Sale!

Went to Rebecca Minkoff's sample sale today.  It wasn't as big as what I thought it would be.  But I did find what I wished to find, a 3 zip clutch in ruby and a mac with distressed leather in crackle yellow.  I was holding  a 3 zip clutch in black for a while, but finally decided to give it up because didn't like the matte finish leather that much.  Both ruby and crackle yellow are very lovely color, really loving them!  Very happy about new buys!!!!!

Denim shirt seems to be very hot this season, so I started my hunt for a denim shirt.  Finally found a nice one from Gap.

                        

Having Some Fun Inside Anthropologie's Fitting Room

Tried some new items from Anthropologie, some I like Some I don't.  Here are two I like and might get them when they are go on sales.  :-)

1. Bright Burning Tank in blue motif: summery, very pretty color

2.  Chocolate Chip Dress, a fun and girlie summer dress

I like this dress quite a lot, more than the top.  I'll keep my eyes on it until it goes on sales.
                                            

Ayara Thai (LAX): Surprisingly Yummy!

Went to Ayara Thai for lunch with my husband today.  This place was recommended by a friend.  I wasn't sure about it before I went. :-) It was located about 2 or 3 mins away from LAX on a tiny little street.  From the outside it looked very ordinary but looked way nicer and bigger inside than I expected.  Quite a busy place for lunch.

We ordered Shrimp Paste Fried Rice (extra spicy), Spicy Bamboo with Pork (extra spicy),

Thai Ice Coffee for me and Thai Ice Tea for him.  My Thai Ice Coffee was perfect, not too sweet, but the Thai Ice Tea was slight too sweet.  Both Shrimp Paste Fried Rice and Spicy Bamboo with Pork were yum yum, very very authentic Thai.  I would say Ayara Thai is one of the best Thai restaurants in South Bay area.  
                            

El Rocoto Peruvian Restaurant in Gardena

Went to a Peruvian restaurant, El Rocoto, in Gardena for dinner last month, interesting place.  This was my first time been to a Peruvian restaurant.  Half of their menu are Chinese dishes, does Peru have a huge population of Chinese? Very curious.  The restaurant looked much nicer and bigger inside.  It was a Monday night, so not very busy.  

After sitting down, we first ordered the Peruvian punch, the waitress called it Peruvian version of Spanish sangria, which I love.  It tasted somehow like Chinese sweet rice wine. sweeter than Spanish sangria, might be slightly too sweet for my taste.

The green sauce on the right was the sauce for everything!. Yum Yum!  Then we ordered Peruvian fried calamari, which actually was from the seafood menu, as an appetizer.

Very tasty, we dipped them into the green sauce instead of the tartar sauce that came with it.  For main course, we ordered Bistek a lo Pobre, a very thin beef steak topped with a fried egg, and Milanesa de Carne, a special breaded beef..

Both of us liked the thin beef steak better.  The dishes were very big portion, neither of us could finish our main course after finishing the big appetizer, so we ended up having leftover for lunch and dinner the next night.  While we were having our dinner, we noticed that one of the other tables ordered a huge, I meant real huge, dish of breaded seafood combo, it looked very delicious and made me want to order it right there.  hahaha. 

Overall their foods were very decent with very reasonable prices and portions and their staffs were very friendly.  We'll definitely go back again in the future.
                          

Anthropologie Pratia Tank

I got this last month, really love the petal details, which make a simple tank girlie and fun.  The material is soft and crinkly with a bubble hem.  It's not sheer because of its double layers.  It fits well on top unlike some of the Anthro tanks which tend to be running big on top for small chest girls.  Here is the picture from Anthro website:

Here is me wearing the tank:

The Perfect Jegging --- Jband Jean Legging

Finally found the perfect jegging, Jband jean leggings (orig. $139)! Love it love it. Soft, lightweight and very comfortable! With its 31" inseam it also fits well on petite frames. With its dark wash, I can dress up with it too! I can wear it with mid-calf boots or heels, very versatile.  Here is a picture I took in the dressing room:

First Day on Blogspot!

Well, first day on BS! Still not quite sure what I'm going to do with this, still trying to figure it out. But for now I'll probably dedicate this to my passion in life, fashion, food and other fun things. :-)
