Where Have I Been? and Big Glasses Obsession

Hello Lovelies!
It's been a while since my last post... yet again.
Yes. I've been extremely busy and I think it's that time of the year when there is sooo much to do.
I'm currently getting ready for a big recording session for Wednesday (yes, I'm a musician). I'm a cellist and I have an important recording session coming up that requires lots and lots of preparation and time. Plus, with work, I've been getting no free time. T.T  But as I always say, "hard work pays off!" and I know that all the effort I'm putting into work and practicing will surely help me in the long run.

Also, the weather here has actually been acting completely bonkers. No joke! Just last week it reached 112 degrees (F) and then it was rainy and cold and went down to the 60s. Seriously, that's a little over 50 degrees difference right there. I literally went through a complete wardrobe change in a week from summer dresses to thick sweaters and boots. I love dressing for autumn and winter weather.  I'm a sucker for coats, scarves, hats, and boots.
Lately, I've been obsessing over big fashion glasses! These kinds of glasses are also know as "ulzzang" glasses or "nerdy" glasses.
Here are my glasses for the day:



At first, when I purchased these kinds of glasses, I was a little too scared to wear them out. I like to add a statement piece to my outfit, but these glasses just seemed a little too.... costume-like, at first! But one day, I was in one of those moods where I felt bored and wanted to try something new. I tied my hair back in a low ponytail, put on a sweater cardigan, and just popped on the glasses.


Surprisingly, I got a good response from other people. People actually complimented me saying that I looked "cute" with the glasses. Some people actually thought they were real glasses, regardless that the glasses were huge! From that day on, I gained the confidence that big "ulzzang" glasses can add a lot to a simple outfit or a day when you're feeling bored. Now, I'm on the urge to buy more.

I actually visited Little Tokyo and snatched a new pair of glasses that are even bigger than the ones I'm wearing in the pictures above. I'll be sure to take a picture of me wearing them next time. They're huge and make an even bigger statement! LOL. I think I need to gain another level of confidence to wear them out, but I think they will be fun to match with an outfit.

Where can you find them? You can find them at Pretty & Cute, the ulzzang headquarters! LOL. They have an amazing collection of ulzzang fashion glasses. Click here to see there awesome inventory of glasses!

How cute are they?? I want them all!!!
In the meantime, I'm tempted to head back to Little Tokyo to snatch a few more of these glasses. I'm regretting just getting only one new pair.

Btw... I'm dying my hair this week! Super excited since I used to love dying my hair. More updates coming soon!
