Perfect opportunity to catch up with the K.E.L.I.A. girls and of course have our usual mini photoshoot.

Dress: TJ Maxx || Blazer: thrifted || Necklace: flea market || Heels: Fossil 

 Got all dolled up for our annual Thanksgiving dinner with my Filipino American community. Theme: Yule Ball. 

Just goes to show that it doesn't take much to dress up. It's all about being resourceful and creative. To be honest, my shoes cost more than everything else in my outfit put together, and the shoes were under thirty dollars. I am so glad I took the chance and invested in such a beautiful blue blazer when I thrifted this baby. And to think, I almost left the store without it. Then what would this outfit look like?

Had time to get together with the main homies, whom I befriended during my first year in college. It's been a while since all seven of us got together.

Oh, and I channeled my inner skier with Mother's old winter headband. 

Sitting on a bench in my secret sanctuary. New favorite place to just get away from it all and enjoy nature. And just BREATHE.

 Sorry 'bout the disheveled hair. Was about to go to bed, but Photo Booth and late night boredom called out to me. Excuse my lame attempts at selfies.

 Went home and chowed down at a new popular pizza place that night. Nothin' special, but was as tasty as pizza can get.

Saturday morning, I caught up over Filipino style breakfast with an old friend I haven't seen in years. Then to the mall I went, to do some family bonding.
