White After Labor Day

We have all heard of the old rule, “No white after Labor Day”, but does anyone obey this rule now in days? I certainly believe that you should wear any color you want whenever you feel like it. If you want to wear bright pink during cold winter days, go for it! I am a believer that color can cheer up a person.

So with that said, I refuse to not wear white after Labor Day. I will wear white whenever I want. That’s my prerogative. Hahaha.

With that said, I hope you all had a great summer. Where I live, it seems like summer just started. Still in 90’s and it doesn’t seem like fall weather will kick in anytime soon. Indian summer perhaps? Whatever it is, I appreciate the heat!

Have a great short week!

Lollapalooza Day Two...

Day Two was Amazing! Not only was the weather BEAUTIFUL (Yes, Chicago can have beautiful weather at times, Haha) but the best performance (In my opinion) happened that night, and that of course goes to The Lumineers. I still cant get over how great they sounded and how they interacted with such a huge crowd. Many of the members decided to sing and play with the crowd. Yes, they walked into the crowd and continued the show from the crowd!!! From all the shows at Lollapalooza, The Lumineers was the best show!

But don't worry, the other bands were great too. We checked out Charles Bradley, Matt and Kim, Ellie Goulding, The National, Lumineers, Mumford and Sons, and of course The Postal Service which was their last show ever and I am so glad I was able to catch them. They also did a GREAT job!

Below are the pictures of Day Two. I am going to go back and re-watch my videos I took. Some of the pictures are not so clear since I was dancing around while trying to take a picture with my camera and phone. ;)

Lollapalooza Day One...

If you follow me on Twitter or Instragram, you would know that I went to Lollapalooza. For those of you who don’t follow me, I suggest you stop reading this and go follow me. ;) But come back and read this entry.

In case you don’t know what Lollapalooza is, it’s a music festival held in Chicago for 3 days. I like to call it, the Midwest Coachella. It’s held at Grant Park every year and lately the lineups have been great. This year the lineup included The Cure, Mumford and Sons, Phoenix, The Killers, The Lumineers, and many more amazing bands.

I went with my friend Gaby and had a blast. The first day, we actually slept in and got there a little late. Perhaps the rain and clouds didn’t help with our jet lagged but we were able to catch Imagine Dragons, New Order and of course The Killers. They were all great and we were able to dance around, and try to avoid the mud as much as possible, which let me tell you, it was a mission to do.

Below are the pictures of Day One. I will be uploading pictures of the others days as well. Enjoy!

Just stopping by to...

Say "Hello" and to apologize for my lack of updates. For those who have full time jobs, they understand that sometimes work can get hectic and take up most of your time. That is currently my situation. With work and traveling (for work), it can get hectic and tiring. Besides work, I was out traveling for my birthday celebrations and other celebrations. I will post pictures of those fun times soon!

I was able to take some pictures this week of my outfit, but guess what? I am back on a plane and heading back to Chicago. I am headed to Lollapalooza! Which I am so excited! Make sure you follow me on Instagram because I will be posting pictures of my outfits. Any of you are going to Lollapalooza? Let me know!

Enjoy!

Hello Summer...

And Hello July aka my Birthday month.

I feel like I am 10 when I say that but every time July comes, I think of it as my birthday month. Although I also need to share my birthday month with America’s Birthday (July 4th) I don’t mind. Hahaha.

Anyways, summer is officially here and it’s been HOT!!!! 95 + degrees hot, humid hot, and just plain HOTTTTT!!!! Today I decided to wear this new pencil skirt I recently purchased at, *drum roll*, Forever 21! WHATTT!!!! Hahaha. I honestly haven’t been inside that store in probably a year. I find their clothes disposable. As soon as I throw the clothes in the washing machine, something happens to it. I rather spend a little more at other stores for a better quality. But recently, I saw this skirt on a girl and asked her where she got it. To my surprise it was Forever 21. I don’t know if they have changed the quality of their clothing, but this skirt definitely didn’t seem Forever 21-ish (you like my new word? Hahaha). The quality is actually very good and its not see-through! I am very happy with my purchase. Maybe now I will look into Forever 21 a little bit more.

Well hope you are having a wonderful week! Stay cool out there!

Xoxo,

Lisa

The unthinkable...

Just happen. Yes, this is me dressed casual. I know to some dressing in shorts and t-shirts is comfortable and their way of dressing, but for me, I much prefer dressing in dresses and pretty heels. But since I am headed to the country club, I decided to dress in something more appropriate for the day. Also, I believe this is the first time I have posted pictures of me in flats! Double shocker!

Don’t think that this is going to be an everyday thing. Trust me I have my cute dresses and skirts waiting for me. Hahaha.

Well hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Remember to drink lots of water! Its officially summer and the weather is hot everywhere, (and humid for some parts). So drink your water and put on some sunblock!

Happy 235th Birthday America!

Yesterday was Fourth of July, and as a tradition in my family we spend all day bbq-ing and have a fireworks show for the whole neighborhood.

I really enjoyed the couple of days off from work since it's been really hectic. And what a better way than to spend it with those you love. If you live in the U.S., how did you spend your forth of july? Let me know... Oh please excuse my awkward pose. Lol!
