Camera Stolen!

Good Morning!


My camera was stolen, which is why I haven't updated. I'll be getting a new one this weekend!


So, in the meantime, I leave you with some inspiration:

Happy weekend!

Black Out in New York

Who. What. Where.

Hi All!


Based on your comments, I've decided to start a new weekly post called "Who. What. Where." This post will review and discuss NYC restaurants, bars, clubs, events, etc. that I've recently been too! NYC is non-stop and there is always something going on in this city.


Today, I'd like to introduce you to Bistro 61:


Bistro 61 is located at 1113 1st Avenue - 61st Street. 

It's a fairly small restaurant with an amazing atmosphere: tinted lights, interesting artwork, exposed brick walls and wooden furniture. I absolutely fell in love with the place before I even sat down to dinner!

The restaurant also has some funny perks, for example, the menus are shaped like old records, which I thought was fun:

The dinner menu has a huge selection ranging from mussels to pasta to burgers and soups. I opted for the Bistro61 burger, which was AMAZING!! 

I definitely recommend these European-inspired bistro to anyone visiting New York City!

Check out their website!

What do you think of the Who. What. Where. ?

KIU and have a great weekend!

ADDO Art Gala

Last Tuesday (5/31), in the East Ballroom of Price Center, ADDO-- a multi-functional/purposed venue that accommodates all mediums of art-- threw a social called, “ADDO Art Gala.”
Open to submissions from UCSD students (both grad and undergrad), faculty, and staff, the event featured a cross-pollination of artistic disciples- including paintings, sculptures, installations, a clothing swap, films, and performances.
The music (including artists 'Pense', 'The Monster Inside Me', and 'Yeti DJ') combined with the exquisite artwork set a killer ambiance- and the limitless buffet with sparkling cider and hors d'oeuvres added a nice touch. Samara Rice threw an amazing clothing swap for all the shopping addicts out there (you know who you are) that featured some great items for sprucing up any summer wardrobe.
In case you didn't get a chance to make it down, here are a few of our artistic selections-- the model with the antlers looks eerily like Kelly Framel from 'The Glamourai,' no?

Friday Muse: U.S. Open Sand Castle Competition

Writer: Lavanya
Located in Imperial Beach, California, the official U.S. Open Sandcastle competition occurs annually, typically during the heat of the summer. Coming up around mid July, the event is catered towards professional sand- carvers who strive for the title of Master's Champion. While featuring amazing works of art, the competition also hosts musicians and vendors hoping to publicize at this popular occasion.

Thursday Designer Spotlight: Marc Jacobs Swim

As we approach the FINAL week of school, there is really only one thing on our minds. Getting our booties in some gorgeous swimsuits and jumping into a pool of refreshingly cool H2O. To help all of you fashionistas prepare, we've compiled photos of some of the prettiest suits of the season. Mr. Marc Jacobs wins our hearts all over again by including adorable ruffles, bold prints, and bright colors to make a simply devine collection. He even has you covered with adorable cover-ups and functional and classic style beach totes. The time to enjoy all these goodies is almost here, promise!

Q: How would you describe your fashion?
A: I would describe my style as chill and casual.

Q: What do you like about your outfit?

A: I like that my outfit is casual and comfortable but it is very chill. It's simple but still making a statement because I don’t like being flashy and layering like crazy.

Q: What is your ideal outfit for going to class?

A: My ideal outfit would be wearing shorts, high socks with vans, and a plain tee. I like being comfortable when I walk to class.

Jon's outfit is the epitome of most men's fashion here on campus at UCSD. He knows how to make a statement with a well fitted jacket while still being casual and comfortable.
