You guys know me- always a couple of weeks late when it comes to pictures! Haha :) I finally uploaded my pictures from NYE and wanted to share with you guys snippets from my night. With all the chaos of getting ready (my roomie had some friends over so our little apartment was filled to capacity!) I forgot ask someone to snap head-to-toe (or H2T as Tyra would say) pictures of my outfit- silly me! You can see most of it in the pictures below- I’m wearing a Forever 21 top and leather shorts (love those shorts, probably one of my fave purchases ever!), gold sparkly tights from Joe Fresh, and black wedges.
A little bubbly toast!
I make this face more often than you think! ;)
*pictures taken either by myself or my friends!
![It's a very belated book haul! These are the four books I picked up on my trip to Australia back in May. Of course I had to check out some bookstores on my first trip to Sydney and I think I ended up visiting 9 in total (check out my stories to see the mini bookstore vlog I made)!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was so fun book shopping over there since majority of the covers are different from our US covers. I couldn't resist this pretty edition of PACHINKO, which I've already read. And when I picked up this copy of PEOPLE PERSON, I was so excited to see it because it wasn't out yet in the US at that time. I also bought two books that I hadn't heard of before I discovered them in the bookstore: IDOL and LOVE AND OTHER PUZZLES.

Do you tend to prefer US or UK book covers?
[P.S. This is an old photo that includes a HarperCollins UK title, but please note that I support the HarperCollins Union.]

Loving the nails! And are those leather pants??!
Thank you! They are (faux) leather shorts actually :)
Looks like a fun night! Like your outfit – all black is glam and chic. :)
Looks like you had a great time!

Yeeeeah for leather shorts! Where are they from? I need another pair. Or five. Because you can never have too many pairs of leather shorts.
Looks like a great time!
Thanks Ashley! They’re from Forever 21 a while ago- I was searching for them forever and finally found them earlier this year! :) Agreed, I almost got some red leather shorts the other day!
Red lips! And I love your hair wavy, I don’t think I’ve ever seen it like that before.
Thanks Alex! My sister did it for me over the break then I tried it again myself for the New Year! More wavy hair pics to come! :)
You look fabulous! I love the shorts.
Look at yooou, rocking leather shorts! I love it. And your nails look stunning as well. Looks like you had a fabulous New Years, doll! I’m so glad, you absolutely deserved it. (:
Loving the shorts! Also, I’ve resolved I have to get all the things with the black cats from the Jason Wu collaboration since I have a black cat myself :)
Thank you Eli! Well that makes perfect sense of course! :) I’m definitely hoping I can snag one of the black cat scarves, along with a couple of other things from my wishlist!
HAPPY NEW YEAR! (belated)
You know, you have the nicest, whitest, straightest teeth. Also, your hair looks super fancy!
Same to you Alyse! :) Awww, thank you! I wanted to try something different, but it only took me like an hour to do that to my hair…needless to say, only for special occasions! haha
great outfit and great fun you had, huh?! :)
