Sunday funday :-) ☁️✨ I still remember when I used to wear my older sister’s watch when I was in HS... but now I have one of my own! 🥺🤍 ——— #GUESSwatches #gifted @guess

The wind was a paid actor. ☁️ Yesterday, I visited Hella Bubble in the Heights for their soft opening! They’re giving out free drink vouchers with every drink purchase, redeemable at any of their three locations: River Oaks, Heights, or San Antonio. These vouchers don’t expire either, which is very generous and convenient! Their grand opening is this Sunday Apr. 25. See you there ✨ ——— Drinks From Left to Right: Hella Bubble Milk Tea, Honey Lemon with Aloe Vera Fruit Tea, Matcha Red Bean Smoothie with Ice Cream, and Very Berry Smoothie. ——— Top & Cardigan from @yesstyle — Use “KVTHY10” for $$$ off! ——— @freshbeauty @sephora #freshbeauty

I’m teaching myself to be more in the present moment and enjoy life a day at a time. The past already happened, the future is not here yet. What’s guaranteed is our present. Looking back, I’ve been able to achieve so many personal goals of mine and the timing was always perfect. Your achievements will come when it’s meant to, and they’re relative to you! For me, success was in the little things like learning how to mail letters, assemble furniture, or learning how to express my boundaries! One of my favorite quotes that still are so powerful come from a Kung Fu Panda movie... LOL. “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift. That’s why it’s called the present.” (We can also dig dipper into this quote by saying the “present” is “pre-SENT” from our past, but I digress 😳✋🏼🧿✨)

It’s been eight months since my friend @hypegreens started his Basketball Planter business, and it’s gone so far and done so well! 🏀✨ Celebrate your friends’ wins, your chapters are also coming! 🥰📚🧿✨

I honestly tried thinking of a witty caption, but any time I wear my red beret, my brain always goes straight into thinking “hon hon baguette” 😭🥖 (I mean I do love my carbs...😳☝🏽)

SWIPE FOR FOOD & VIDEOS! 🌸✨/// I’ve seen a handful of my foodie friends share @PierSixSeafood, so I knew I had to give this place a visit for myself and see what’s up! My friend and I ordered a decent amount of food, and these are our honest opinions! ——— + Oysters on the Half Shell — $13 by the dozen. The oysters were actually very good, clean, and are large! Thankfully they were cleaned well, because I’ve definitely had oysters before that weren’t and I was basically eating muddy water. (But whatever, extra seasoning..?) For about $1 per oyster, you can’t go wrong with these! + “The Prestige” Grilled Oysters — $14 Half Dozen. These were pretty heavy, so I wouldn’t order these again so I could have more space to eat other things! + Margarita Flights — $12 for 4. These were so worth it, and a set of flights was enough to get me drunk! LOL. Tequila is sneaky... If I were to order margaritas from here again, I’d go for their watermelon slush! + Lobster Rolls — $17 ea. The lobster was yummy and was great with their coleslaw, but I didn’t eat the roll itself since it was pretty filling as well! Comes with a side of potato chips. + Crab Mac & Cheese — $11. This side was worth it! + Fries — $6. If you order an entrée, it’ll most likely come with a side of fries already, so I say skip the fries! ——— Customer service was awesome! Will I come here again? Yes! However, the servings are good so don’t over-order like I did! 😋🌸💕✨ ——— 📍 Pier 6 Seafood & Oyster House + 113 6th St, San Leon, TX 77539 + @piersixseafood ——— #girlsinLOVE #MarcFisherLTD #styleMARC

Here’s to Spring and warmer weather 🍄✨ Now that Covid vaccinations are becoming easier to obtain, I am finally at a place where I feel more open to meeting more girlfriends of mine irl! It’s so exciting, but also nerve-wracking because it honestly does feel like a first date every single time! I grew up always being the outcast and once could only DREAM of having a close circle of friends I can love and trust. The Universe taught me that I needed to hand pick every single friendship in my life based on character, and that cycle of being the outcast finally ended. I wasn’t an outcast— I was just with the wrong people for me and my path in life. Real friendships aren’t always enabling. We hold each other accountable, and create a safe space where both vulnerability AND criticism are welcomed with open arms. — @freshbeauty @sephora #soyobsessed #freshbeauty

I recently had the honor of taste-testing @MaLuBianBianHouston, a new Sichuan Hot-Pot restaurant located in Bellaire! The price point & quality of the food? MUAH!! They also have meat & skewers that you can grab by yourself for your hotpot, so that you can prevent food waste or grab as much as you need to fill up your stomach! (Edit: Not all you can EAT!!****) ——— There’s even a gaming area, and a 10% discount if you present your UH ID! 🙌🏼✨

I spent my Spring Break with my family, and I recently was able to throw together a mini picnic for us partially thanks to @chowbus_houston~ I've shared this food delivery app many times in the past, but what I love most about it is that you can order from practically ANY restaurant in Bellaire. Mom and pop, franchise, you name it! Today, I went with Hokkaido Sushi and Twinkle for boba, and was able to bundle multiple restaurants free of charge. 🍣 💕 ————————— 𝐃𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐥𝐨𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐰𝐛𝐮𝐬 𝐚𝐩𝐩 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐦𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐝𝐞 ✨𝐊𝐀𝐓𝐇𝐘𝐕𝐔✨ 𝐭𝐨 𝐠𝐞𝐭 $𝟏𝟎 𝐨𝐟𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐫~ Applicable to all cities that have Chowbus!

I’m so proud of Fiona and @ftthelabel for their very first launch! I was blessed enough to see Fiona go through her creative process of her apparel, from picking her fabrics, to asking her followers on their input on certain prints, etc! When it comes to packaging, I knew right away that Fiona cared about being as environmentally friendly and sustainable as possible. The plastic mailer was made out of compostable materials (which was also stated ON the mailer), and the sweatshirt I received was wrapped in kraft paper and twine, which are both recyclable as well! This crewneck is so thick, high quality, and dare I say that it reminds me of a fellow brand we all know that starts with a “Ch-“ but better because it’s a small business... 😳☝🏼 ——— I can’t wait to see the designs and pieces Fiona creates in the future! I love supporting small and Asian-owned businesses! 😤✋🏼💕
