2012 is SO close, and I cannot wait for the New Year to arrive.  I'll probably be eating a huge dinner with my family members and watching the ball drop at 12:00 ... is there anything else better to do than to spend time with family and eat good food?! 
I have no idea what i'm going to be wearing yet, but I know that it will probably be chic and comfortable (it has to be comfy for the couch, hehe)
What are you guys doing for NYE?

For my readers on the opposite side of the world, I hope that you had a wonderful Christmas yesterday!
For my American readers, I hope that today has been an amazing day that you have spent with your friends and families.

Today, I went to church for a Christmas morning service, and I'm waiting for the fam to unwrap gifts.
I think one of the best things about Christmas is giving gifts, I love seeing the reactions of every member in my family!

I hope that your year has been filled with happiness, joy, and love, and that you enjoy the last of 2011!

Merry Christmas!

Embellishment Establishment

Oh, embellishments just in time for New Years. I have a sequin dress, but I'm feeling like an update?! Maybe copper/rose gold, gunmetal, or gold?

All the Raj | Chanel Pre-Fall '12

triplet images via style.com//others, preebruleeblog.com
I truly applaud Karl Lagerfeld on his Pre-fall 2012 collection, inspired by the luxe and lavish lifestyles of the Raj. A "Paris-Bombay" fusion of sorts, I was pleased by almost all of the pieces in the collection, save for a few that seemed a bit off key.
All in all, the accessories' attention to detail (amazing head jewelry, if I may say) was well executed and done with an amazing nod to modern day fashion.

Misikko Product Review 2 | HANA Professional Straightening Iron 1"

Sometimes, my hair does not like me.It's true. Even with my (usually) naturally straight Asian hair, it has a tendency to fluff up and frizz--don't even get me started on my annoying baby hairs.
Lucky for me, and YOU, Misikko carries a selection of the best flat irons I have ever seen !
The top rated iron that Misikko sent me is HANA's 1" Professional Straightening Iron. Along with adjustable heat settings (which makes it versatile for all hair types) and the ceramic tourmaline plates that make it safe for damp OR dry hair, the iron heats up in less than 3 minutes! 
Be sure to check out all of Misikko's products on their website!PS -looking for a hair dryer? I have the perfect one (see my review HERE)

Relaxed waffle knit + Amazing envelope clutch

KNIT: old navy, SHORTS: f21, NECKLACE: mom, TIGHTS: mom, SHOES: piperlime, CLUTCH: H&M
I've been carrying this clutch all week, and for good reason! It is unbelievably convenient and super chic all at the same time. The knit is also amazing--I got it for a mere $15 during the black friday festivities. 
Ahh, so I don't really have that much to say except to say sorry for:1.) The weird grain on these photos: it's been hazy lately. The sun sets way too early.2.) My horrendous (wow, how many times have I used that word to describe my blogging habits?) blogging. 
College applications, senior year, EH.
The colleges that I have applied/am applying to (in case you want to know, curiosity!)UCLA, UC Berkeley, FIT, UPenn, and NYU!
