{ Nude + Black } @ Sushi Yasuda

My sister took the November babies (me, our brother and her husband) to Sushi Yasuda for our birthday celebration. I was so excited, as it is only the best sushi in town! It's also the best sushi I ever had, which is saying a lot, as I am picky about fish.

It was good, but it was not the same as my first experience when we sat next to Chef Yasuda as he showed us every kind of wild fish known to man and had us taste them. At the end, every taste bud in my mouth was touched. I will die thinking about that meal! This time, we didn't get personal attention from the chef, but had omakase (chef's selections). Still, it was delicious.

For a sushi date, I thought I would go with the Zen spirit, which compliments the minimalist decor at Sushi Yasuda. I decided on this nude dress and black tights. It's simple, yet perfect-- just like Sushi Yasuda!

{ At the Office } mini series - episode 1

Fall is a great time to wear blazers, capes, tights, and ankle boots! Coincidently, these things are also very appropriate for the office, so I thought, why not start a mini-series featuring these great items as ideas for office wear.

I paired a long blazer with this dress that Julie bought for me at Urban Outfitters for $20. It's cute, comfortable, and works for the office. I am a huge fan of pairing high-end items with very inexpensive finds- when people would never think you are wearing something that only cost $5 or $10.

- Blazer: Kensie (TJ Maxx $149)
- Dress: Urban Outfitters $20
- Scarf: No Brand $10 @ Yesstyle
- Bootie: Pour La Victoire (TJ Maxx $69)
- Belt: Zara Belt $19.90
- Accessories: Chan Luu, vintage
- Handbag: Louis Vuitton







Bonus: French Nail with glitter

Carlos Miele Fashion Show

I was so excited to have the opportunity to attend a fashion show with such a gorgeous collection by Carlos Miele! Big thanks to my bff Floria and our friend Diana!!

It was definitely one of most fashionable events I have ever been to. The minute I stepped foot into Lincoln Center, I was amazed by what people were wearing and wanted to take pictures of their outfits. It's very unlike me, but I was too shy to approach anyone. Next time, I will bring my SLR camera and pretend I'm there for work.

The Show

Some hot guy across from me- wasn't too shy to take this pic!

Look at how skinny this girl's legs are! They look like arms.







I really wish I could have taken better pictures, but these are the best I could do. For the full collection, please go here.

I met up with Floria for lunch after the show, which was a perfect ending to the event.
