Welcome All!

In my opinion, the most important aspect of an outfit is the accessories. I don't think that anyone would be able to maneuver without handbags, wallets, or the dainty body decor that we call jewelry. Personally, I can't leave the house without wearing my jewelry because I would practically feel naked. Jewelry really illuminates your outfit and says something about your personal taste. If you're very reserved, then you would go for minimalist jewelry. If you love to be bold, then you would go for extravagant pieces. I think that you could have the best of both worlds from AUrate jewelry. 

For simplistic jewelry lovers, AUrate New York pieces are timeless real gold jewelry that goes with a variety of outfits. For bold statement jewelry lovers, AUrate provides dazzling pieces that will immediately attract anyone's attention. Whether it's the daytime or nighttime, you could definitely be on your A game with these amazing jewelry pieces. Today, I have two looks for you to show you how AUrate jewelry adds a nice touch to any outfit no matter what time of day it is!

Idea behind the outfit: I thought the gold would enhance the already rich, green fabric. Since I'm using AUrate gold jewelry, I decided that the color of the dress shouldn't clash with jewelry itself. The look is supposed to be very chic, but comfortable at the same.

The Bag: Lately, wooden bags became a spring/summer trend which I decided to include in this set. The material of the bag didn't disrupt the gold theme and added a summer vibe to the outfit.

The Shoes: I wanted the shoes to be very simple and express comfort. I don't think anyone really needs to dress over the top for the daytime unless you're going somewhere fancy. The flip-flops add a gold touch and harmonizes with the other accessories.

The Shades: The outfit is meant for the summer so the outfit definitely needed a pair of shades.

The Jewelry: Unfortunately, I couldn't find a place for the earrings in the picture. I'm going to just  list what earrings would go best with this daytime look. Also, here are the rings that were in the set:

 Rings

1. Wraparound Ring With White Diamonds (Spirally Ring)
2. Crossover Ring

Earrings

1.  Hoop Earrings
2.  X Earring Rose Gold

Idea behind the outfit: The first outfit was more subtle, but that's not the case for the nighttime version of it. When I think of going out at night, I'm picturing a bold fashionista conquering the city nightlife. I wanted to embody that particular mindset, but still keep the whole look classy. We're still sticking to the gold theme, but with a bronze touch to it.

The Bag: Before we even talk about the shoes, I just wanted to say that they're the reason why I picked a simple bag. I don't want to overpower the dress or the shoes in any way.

The Shoes: I wanted to do something different and not go with the simple stiletto. If anyone is going out to have a fun time, then they wouldn't want to have achy feet at the same time.

The Jewelry: Again, I wasn't able to include any other AUrate jewelry in this set. Here are the necklaces, bracelets, and earrings for this nighttime outfit.

Rings

1. Flower Ring Open With White Diamonds
2. Flower Ring Closed  

1. Flower Necklace Closed 

1. Flower Earring Back Large
2. Flower Earring Back Small
3. Simple Mini Earcuff- Yellow Gold

Welcome All!

As you may know, I am currently taking college courses as a part of a scholarship that I received a few months back. Lets just say that I have been reading so much to the point where I refuse to read a textbook for atleast two hours. If the readings weren't mandatory, then I wouldn't have even read any of my textbooks. Anyways, I wanted to just share the few texts I've been reading for school related things. I'm thinking of this as a show and tell rather than an in-depth first impressions of the novels themselves. I thought it would be nice to discuss the covers of the novel, assess the number of pages, and talk about other book related topics!

The placement of the title reminds me of like someone being blindfolded (ex. lady liberty). I think the blurred out/watercolor effect was really neat. The book is about dreams, so I see the connection between the book's concept and the cover art. Also, it is a pretty short read.

This is one of my textbooks for one of the classes I take which is called, "The Logic of Dreams". We study dream theories, how to interpret dreams, psychoanalysis, etc.


I have a few things to say about this book. The first thing is that it's a very lengthy, slow read which is a common theme when it comes to college readings. Second, I enjoy reading about Freud's dreams and his patients dreams. Third, I probably wouldn't want to read this again unless I have the patience to do so.


I have already mentioned Pastoral in a previous post and it was literally called, "Book Chats: Pastoral". If you would like to learn more about this novel, then you should head over to my last Book Chats. Also, I could have finished the novel sooner if it wasn't for all the reading I had to do for my college classes.


André Alexis is not only the author of Pastoral, but he is the author of Fifteen Dogs. Fifteen Dogs is the next book on my list to read and I'm honestly trying to finish Pastoral up as fast as I can to do so.

On a final note, I should hopefully be done with Pastoral soon so that I'll be able to share my first impressions on Fifteen Dogs in next week's post. If you haven't check out my latest post already, then head over to Check-In: College Life to hear about upcoming college posts! I hope you all have a wonderful day and I'll probably talk to you all tomorrow! :)

Welcome All!

Currently, I am living in a college dorm and taking two college classes. I'm still adjusting to being away from home, but I'm doing a pretty good job living on my own. As you could tell, I haven't blogged for a week which you could thank college life for the interruption (insert laughter). I thought it would be refreshing to do a Check-in so I could update you all on my life. One post wouldn't be enough, I know, which is why I created a Snapchat. If you would like to follow me on my college adventures, then check out my social media page to add me on Snapchat!

Before I talk about a few post ideas I have in mind, you all should know that I have a special post coming up next week (be ready for that)! I'll tell you that it's about jewelry and how to style it. Besides that, I was thinking about posting a Day In My Life (College Edition). I thought it would be neat to share the Yale experience especially for viewers outside of the United States. Here's a few other blog post ideas I have in mind:

What I Packed For College

Tips For Surviving College Life

What's In My Backpack (for both classes)

Room Tour (At the end of the month)

Day In My Life (Snapchat Edition) 

No doubt, I will still continuously work on the Book Chats and Check-In series. I usually go to class every Wednesday, so each Book Chat post might be posted by noon. The last few days have been hectic because of the gigantic amount of assignments landing on my lap almost every day. I'm trying to balance my schoolwork, blogging, and reading all at the same time.

On a final note, please bear with me and stay tune for the amazing posts coming your way. If you have any blog post suggestions, then I encourage you to comment them down below! I hope you all have a wonderful day and I'll talk to you all tomorrow. :)
