Quotes & Sunsets

♫ Herbie Hancock- Cantaloupe Island ♫

I finally tried out this new place in Fullerton called: Veronese Gallery & Cafe. From the outside it looks like an ordinary two story house but the only difference is that it's filled with plants and artsy decor everywhere. I instantly fell in love with the ambiance!  The vibes were chill and the atmosphere had this calming effect with jazz music playing the background, it must have also been the plants and the water fountain sound that gave this effect. I love the home-y feeling of this place, I also love how spacious the outdoor patio was and how every table section had it's own unique decor. I settled on a comfy couch and my table had a bunch of hand written quotes stuck under the glass by many of the other customers who ate there too. Overall, the place had pretty good service and yummy peach iced teas! But I can't wait to come back when the weather cools down to try out their hot drinks and desserts and cozy up by the fireplace with friends. 

Happy Week!

Rose Park Roasters

(Wearing: H&M old knit, AE pants, Steve Madden booties, F21 bag)

Wow Long Beach is stepping up its game! There is a new coffee spot in my old neighborhood called: Rose Park Roasters , they recently just opened and my sis and I just had to try it and see what all the fuss was about. This place definitely caught my eye right away with it's mellow vintage-y vibes and decor.

 I opted for the matcha latte, and my sister tried the seasonal latte, and honestly they were both yummy. Now, I'm not a huge coffee drinker but the seasonal latte definitely satisfied my taste buds. 

This place is also pretty cool just because they started off as a delivery coffee service biking all over Long Beach, and they finally opened a location....so glad they did!

Thanks for the experience Rose Park Roasters, I will most definitely be back soon!

First off ....Happy New Year guys!! 
Aside from fashion I've always had a fascination for interior decor so I decided to create an inspiration set to start off the year. Here's an inspiration set of my dream living room. For the decor theme, I got inspired by winter of course and decided to use lighter, fresh, clean hues as well as muted tones for that perfect bright winter wonderland look.  I chose this beautiful leather sofa as the center piece because of it's spacious, modern, chic, yet comfortable look plus it's perfect when having a bunch of friends over! I'm all about the modern yet cozy or "home-y" look, I mean c'mon who doesn't want to be lounging in this cozy living room watching the snow fall right now? hehe . Major thanks to Modani for the inspiration, if you would like to check out more of their stuff or modern sofas check them out here !

Heat Wavin'

(All pics taken with phone)

These past September days have been scorching hot! But this called for plenty of outdoor and random activities like eating sushi nonstop, froyo, pool days,  iced tea and smoothies 24/7, barbecues, and of course chasing the amazing sunsets!

Today is nice though, just glad it's Friday!

Do you guys have any plans for the weekend? I have no clue what I'm doing yet , I'll probably end up lounging around and being lazy all day watching Netflix, but hey it's the weekend so it's ok ;)
