Carrie Bradshaw and the little Garden

This week is my last week of college. I graduate a week from tomorrow!!!!! I can't believe that in a week I will have a Bachelor's Degree of Fine Arts in Fashion Design from Parsons. I'm so happy and excited to enter this new chapter of my life!

Living in New York is a whirlwind of culture and is always changing and exiting. I was walking back from grocery shopping the other day and there is a quaint little community garden right next to the grocery. Spring has definitely arrived and the garden is in full bloom! It had just rained and the smell of the fresh flowers and plants was divine. I stood there for a good 15 minutes sniffing the plants, and I think the people walking by were giving me weird looks but I don't care. It was just one of those moments where you feel so alive and so real, and the garden looked absolutely beautiful. If you're ever in New York you should check it out, its on the corner of Laguardia and Bleecker.

I've been thinking that I should have a plant in my apartment, and seeing the garden looking so full of life is the final push-this week I will go to the Union Square market and buy a plant!!

So here are the photos of the garden, all taken and edited by me. The picture of Carrie Bradshaw is courtesy of HBO.com. That is what I want to be wearing this spring and summer! Easy, cute, and understated sexy is perfect for the hot summer months coming up.

summer style

hii everyone! sorry it's been so long since my first post, I am still getting the hang of this blogging thing haa. Things have been crazy lately, with school coming to a close and the aftermath of my thesis presentation. I have spent a lot of time sleeping and getting use to a new schedule....it's weird to have free time again! i haven't had this much time to myself since high school! I am doing my best to stay motivated to finish my off the school year but I am so close to the end that I seem to have lost the drive! I'm ready to graduate in 2 and a half weeks! ahhhhh I have been working so hard and have been in a school bubble for so long, I am really ready to break out of the bubble and define my life outside of school.

I thought i would start this new chapter of my life with a blog, to share my thoughts and experiences, whether it be places I go, my regular life in NYC, or the outfit I happen to be wearing that day. So today, the beautiful hot weather here in nyc is getting me soooo excited for summer-i love just throwing on a great dress with sandals and the perfect sunglasses. I was looking at style from the recent Coachella music festival in CA, and I loved Kate Bosworth's cool style throughout the festival. Here are a few photos of her enjoying the festival, all courtesy of katebosworthonline.com. This is how I want to dress this summer, comfortable and simple and effortless. It's funny sometimes how hard i try to look like i didn't try at all. haa Enjoy this beautiful spring weather! xxxx L
