Explosion Print Shirt: Fashion or Faux Pas?

(Christopher Kane Explosion T-shirt, $220 at FarFetch.com) After the war started, it wasn’t uncommon to see bumper stickers, canvas totes, and T-shirts with messages of peace scribbled all over, which makes me wonder if this Christopher Kane shirt is appropriate for the time we’re living in. Maybe it’s just a design, but I feel like [...]

China Islamic Restaurant

While my mom and baby BIL were visiting us, her cousin took all of us out for halal Chinese food in Rosemead, which is about a 45-minute drive from where we live. The food was AMAZING and it was legit. As in, they had real Chinese chefs there. And no, that’s not racist, it’s just [...]

It seriously gathers by the hour, and if I don’t give the tables, TV, and our lamp a good dusting/polish every week (or sometimes twice a week) [...]

Small Wrist Cuff from BCBG

I got this bracelet from the BCBG store back at home on the east coast, and one of the reasons I love it is because it’s a small cuff that actually fits me. I have really small wrists, so it’s hard sometimes to find bracelets that stay put. In college, my friends used to marvel [...]
