Can you believe it is already May? This year is flying by! When it comes to street style, the summer season will be a continuation of the spring season. Look for the anonymous handbag to still dominate the streets, as well as investment jewelry. After all, these are timeless styles which are always relevant, no matter what the current trends are. This makes the anonymous handbag, investment pieces, and classic styles always on trend! Love that!

As we move into the summer season, look for softer neutrals and use black sparingly. Summer nail polish will start to offer more vibrant neutrals as well as fun colors. Stay away from logos and designer labels which shout, you want your outfits to offer a chic, simple, investment vibe. What? This old thing? Just threw it on! Yeah, that kinda vibe.

Stay tuned for summer coverage coming in May!

Favorite dim sum in Cupertino

casual cupertino street style

wearing: sunglasses / large hoop earrings (under $100) / spring sweater / jeans / bracelet (under $50) / nail polish / handbag / sneakers /

There is a new dim sum restaurant in town! Koi Palace Contempo might be new to Cupertino, but it is already a mainstay here in the San Francisco Bay Area. When I heard they were opening a location in Cupertino, I was overjoyed! They have the best dim sum!

Two of my favorite items on the menu are the mushroom shumai and the lobster har gow. Yes! LOBSTER har gow. Ooooh, so good! We definitely enjoyed everything we ate and left overstuffed. I will be back again for sure!

If you are local to the Bay Area, check out the Koi Palace closest to you, you will love it! If you are here in the South Bay, be sure to check out the new location at Cupertino Main Street. It is so good!

FYI: The fork was a serving utensil; we ate with chopsticks. Just for the record.

It was literally the first spring day of the day, weather-wise, when we decided to try the new Koi Palace Contempo location inside Cupertino’s Main Street. I decided to wear my spring sweater, which I have been dying to wear for two months! It was perfect with jeans on this spring-like day. So glad spring has finally arrived!

Have you been enjoying this new spring weather? I know I am!

Thanks for stopping by!

This is the time to snap up something for Mother’s Day! Whether you are rewarding yourself, or getting something special for mom, this is the perfect time to find it! I highly recommend a fabulous handbag or silver investment jewelry. Love!

How fun is this blue eye liner? It reminds me of the late 1980s and early 1990s when blue eye liner and blue mascara were everything. Also loving this foundation powder. It has spf and is a one step process. Isn’t efficiency great? Love that!

The anonymous handbag and investment dressing are still hot. Look for chic and simple pieces this year which will transcend seasons and time.
