From Day to Night

9:47 AM

Happy Sunday!


I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. I can’t believe it’s already mid-April, where does the time go? Recently I’ve been thinking of what pieces I need to add to my wardrobe to prepare for my third-year clerkships. I want to put together a more professional wardrobe so that can seamlessly transition from day to night. I’ve been sitting in lectures and studying for two years, and I’m so excited to be out and about!


So in order to add versatile pieces I’ve started shopping for one or two pieces every couple of weeks. Last weekend I found this nude shirt by Ro & De at Nordstrom Rack and absolutely love how flowy yet structured it is. It also drops down in the back for a more modest look. I picked up my pants at H&M a few months ago and they are my go-to professional pants for all my clinic activities. I love that they are full length and don’t stop above the ankles. This outfit can be worn with flats for a day in clinic or heels for a more dressy look. I wore it out for a friend’s birthday last night and loved how polished it all looked together!

Springtime Pastels

2:30 AM

Happy Sunday everyone, and welcome to my first outfit post!

It’s officially spring and that means warmer weather and lighter colors. Sometimes I forget what season we’re in since I live in the desert where there are basically just two seasons - warm & hotter than hot. Fortunately, spring time graces us with some enjoyable weather before it gets up to boiling temperatures in a couple of months!

I’ve always been obsessed with neutral color palettes, especially pastels. They are just so fresh, youthful and make me feel very feminine. Last weekend J and I were in Newport, CA for a little two-year wedding anniversary trip and I felt like doing a little shopping before going. I picked up this pastel lilac dress by Naked Zebra at a boutique near campus. It’s so soft yet durable. It also has an adjustable drawstring around the waist. I have more of a “pear shaped” body so I was a bit skeptical since adding a waist tends to accentuate my hips but since this one is adjustable it worked for me. I decided to wear it for one of our night’s out to dinner on the trip and it was perfect for the cool, beachy night. I paired it with my favorite jeans, and the Neapolitan heel from Chinese Laundry in “mushroom”. These heels are a light, pinky nude and surprisingly comfortable. The wallet is my favorite wallet ever, it’s so feminine yet structured and features a beautiful bow design on the front. J surprised me with it for my birthday in December and I absolutely love it.

I’m hoping to make more outfit posts from now on, especially with clerkships coming up and having to dress more professional on a regular basis. Stay tuned 

Have an amazing week, everyone!
