It finally feels like fall! I have been living in this long sleeve stripe tee this season. It is perfect to wear everyday without a jacket. Once the weather cools down even more, it can easily be topped with a jacket or coat. Love!

The anonymous handbag is still going strong! Continue to invest in beautiful, high-quality handbags. The spring 2026 runways showed us that logos are still out, so keep investing in timeless beauty!

Dior has released their holiday nail polish, and it’s beautiful! If you missed my review, you can check it out here.

Dior nail polish holidays 2025 review

Dior nail polish holidays 2025: Dior Plum Parade / Dior Gold Circus (top coat) /

It’s beginning to look like the holiday season! The much-anticipated Dior beauty collection is here, and the holiday nail polish is fabulous. Love!

For the 2025 holiday season, Dior has given us a beautiful, deep plum nail polish and also a sparkling golden top coat. Together, they make a festive holiday manicure for the party season and New Years Eve. Separately, the possibilities are endless.

Dior Plum Parade nail polish is a deep plum hue which can easily be worn now, during the fall season, and then throughout the holiday and winter seasons. It is a classic hue with a festive vibe. Love that!

In order to create a holiday party vibe, Dior Plum Parade nail polish can be topped with Dior Gold Circus top coat. The top coat is a dense, sparkling polish with tiny golden sparkles. The sparkles are three dimensional, adding the right subtle gold hue and party vibe. This top coat will also look amazing on top of neutral nail polish hues such as beige and mocha, as well as other shades of red, plum, and berry hues. Love!

So, without further ado, here is the Dior nail polish collection for the 2025 holiday season!

I used one base coat, two coats of Dior Plum Parade nail polish and one coat of Dior Gold Circus. I love how it looks!

Casual fall day in San Jose Japantown

wearing: sunglasses / statement earrings / navy long sleeve top / wide leg jeans / belted tote / fall nail polish / black boots (similar here) /

Life has been on the stressful side lately, so I decided to pre-order some Chichi Dango and enjoy a meal in San Jose’s Japantown. Have you heard of Shuei-Do in San Jose? They are famous for their soft and delicious Chichi Dango. They make it fresh daily Thursday through Sunday. The flavors are seasonal, and since they get busy, it is best to pre-order what you want a couple days in advance. I pre-ordered raspberry and mango. They were so good! Raspberry is my favorite.

After picking up our treats, we walked around and then enjoyed lunch at Okayama Sushi. Normally I would order sushi, but I was in the mood for tendon and gyoza. It was so yummy! Highly recommend!

Thankfully we are starting to get a small amount of fall weather. I was able to wear jeans and a long sleeve tee. It was perfect! I love this cooler weather.

So, if you are local, I recommend picking up some Chichi Dango and then enjoying a nice meal in San Jose’s Japantown. Love!

Thanks for stopping by!
