A Much Needed Recap

I know I've been MIA for awhile now, mostly because my smugmug account (aka sistah's account) was not allowing me upload pics, so everything was just sitting on my hard drive. What's the point of blogging without pictures?

So I'm back from the O-H-10, which was amazing. The weather couldn't be "better" (relatively speaking) - I had a white Christmas, but the snow quickly melted when it hit 50-something degrees, making it hard to go sledding, but easier to go shopping. PRIORITIES PEOPLE.

This post will be some highlights of photos to quickly recap the holidays...and I'll be back to fashuns / outings / makeup postings quickly hereafter.

On Christmas Eve, it's Rye Bread's family tradition to spend it at his parents' house:
banana republic dress, hermes bracelet (my christmas gift!)
my "growing" family
rye bread: united colors of benetton sweater, club monaco slacks / ezio: mickey mouse sweater
rye bread's cousins

Cut to my red-eye from LAX to Ohio
my ohio-based family
martin + osa button-down, citizen jeans
christine: express shirt, american rag jeans
red lips for my nieces

I decided to stay in Ohio for NYE, as I haven't seen my family in quite awhile. So I was scrambling after Christmas trying to find an outfit to wear.
h&m lace top, f21 skirt, chinese laundry heels, hermes braceletmom: "we're late! what are you doing?"
me: "taking pictures"
mom: "why?!"
me: "for my blog"
mom: "okay i want a picture too"

I spent the entire week between Christmas & New Year's with my family & we went to the zoo, the mall (a lot), and ice skating. It's good to be back in LA, but I already miss my family!

How were your holidays spent? Any good presents? Because, let's be honest, that's all I care about. New Year's Resolutions? Do you guys even believe in those anymore?

OH! I just got nike+, so find & add me as a friend if you guys want to start running challenges, username: hoisinivy (of course).

  6. Ok. how come Vietnamese mommys are always so stylish and hip and young-looking?!! You and Phistyle's moms are both so stylin. My mom wears pastel twin-sets with matching kitten-heels. Come to think of it, kind of like Umbridge in Harry Potter.

    Anyway, glad you're back and had a good holiday!

    BTW did you see the formspring Q on phistyle about you stalking her friends? SO HILARIOUS.
