Black & White Chic

Hi guys! How have you been? Hope you are having a great week. I am enjoying today's foggy weather. It looks cold outside, but it actually pretty warm. This kind of damp foggy warm weather would be ideal for me if it was up to me.  It is one of many things I cannot take control of , which is fine with me anyways. But, just imagine if you could change the weather depending on your mood. One day you wake up and feel like you want snow and all of a sudden it starts snowing. Wouldn't it be awesome? Maybe someone will invent some sort of machine that can change the weather  in your own surroundings in the future. While you  swim in your pool, your neighbor next door can make a snowman in his/her backyard. Just imagine! It will probably  happen when people run out of all the resources and when there won't be any plants left on Earth. Haha. I know I'm bad. So, we better take care of our environment now. But, hey, who knew that we could make our houses freezing cold before AC's (air conditioners) were invented? Everything is possible. Although, it is way too far ahead.

For now let's worry about what's happening around us. And you are in 2013 on the planet Earth reading Toscha's blogpost called "Black & White Chic."  I know I know I have some psychic abilities in me as well:) Hehe. Ok, I think I am being overly silly today. Let me talk about what I'm wearing here. I wore all black with a white shirt. So, I've been wearing this cotton shirt a lot lately. I think if I had a "must-haves" list then a long-sleeved white shirt would definitely be on that list. I never knew that it could be so versatile, and in addition it can go basically with anything. So, if you don't know what to buy, buy a white shirt. White shirts are not made for office only. You can wear them with denim, suede, leather etc. Speaking of leather, this faux leather jacket that I'm wearing here is one of my favorite items in my closet. It fits me so well that I don't even feel its weight on me. This is how you know that you've found your perfect leather jacket. Hope you enjoyed this post and the pictures. Have a great day/night! And I will see you guys soon.

All Black + Faux Red Leather Jacket

Hi, everyone! Hope you guys are enjoying your weekdays. I've been enjoying a lot of things lately. Starting with my morning coffee and finishing with herbal tea that I have before going to bed every night. Yesterday, I went to a Turkish store and bought different kinds of herbal tea. I specifically picked the kinds I've never had before (rosehip, rose petal and mixed herbs). They all turned out to be really good. So, the money I spent was well worth the risk I took by not knowing if they taste good or bad.

Speaking of not knowing... This Sunday, me and my brother decided to stroll around the city with no plan and a specific destination. First, it felt kinda weird. I felt like finding a specific location by googling or yelping, then I decided not to do it. Just wandering around the city is a luxury in New York where people always rush and have a gazillion things to do in a day. Imagine if someone asked us that night, "Where are you guys going?" And we would, of course, answer," Well, we don't know, we just gonna wander around the city." Sounds very touristy right? Even tourists know where they wanna go and what they wanna see.

Anyways, it turned out to be great. We even bumped into Chef Russel Jackson (Food Network star) and took a picture with him. He was super nice and sweet, he even gave us his business card. Will post the picture later. First, I want to email him and ask if it's ok with him. I can assume that he wouldn't mind, but you never know. So, after, wandering around the area for a while we got hungry as wolves. Then we decided to look around and find a place to eat. The only certainty was that we both wanted Asian food. Then we found a small Vietnamese restaurant  which turned out to be amazing. The food was really good. I mean, really really good. It's our favorite now.

And these pictures are from that night. Oh, by the way, how do you like my red faux leather jacket? Don't mean to brag though. I wore it with all black outfit to create a sharp contrast. This look can easily be worn for night outs and special occasion dinners. You may want to change the boots for something more dressier. If the dinner is really "special." I think, that's all I have to say for now. Hope you enjoyed it:) See you guys soon, and have a wonderful day/night.
