Dearest readers, I apologize for not showing outfits or styling tips for several posts now. Boston weather is currently 30’s and “wintry mix,” so posing for outdoor photos without looking like rudolph the red nosed reindeer is tres difficile!
Instead I wanted to share with you guys some fun news that has me giddy…my awesome friend Stephanie of DSK Jewelry has invited me to join her family of “dsk models.” Although I’m beyond flattered and proud to represent her brand, I’m a bit shy to join the ranks of the ladies on there!
I initially found DSK through Jen Frmheadtotoe (whom I found through Alterations Needed), and from Steph’s sidebar I discovered some of the best beauty bloggers/youtubers out there – Eki, Pam, Stephie, and of course Jen as well. Earlier this year I also stalked DSK’s 2010 model search where 44 beautiful girls competed to represent DSK (I voted for apetitediva Janine : ) … I feel so lucky to have a spot with them. I’m just a conserv. petite clothing blogger!
Aside from being a passionate jewelry artisan, Steph is one of the best friends I’ve made on the blogger community. She and I are almost twins, climbing out of our wombs in the same month and year! We instantly hit it off chattering about food, shopping, and silly boyfriends. Check out her personal blog if you like beauty reviews, puppy pics, and extravagant Louboutin or LV hauls : ) Steph became a full-time entrepreneur after graduating from college, which I find hugely admirable. Wouldn’t you love to be in the business of making others happy, or to work in a profession that you’re truly passionate about?
Lol, excuse my gnarly flyaway hairs and “sideburns”! DSK jewelry is sparkly and youthful, but there definitely are pieces for the more conservative or mature dressers. Her jewelry is hand-made using quality materials…a lot of pretty Swarovski crystals and beads. Below are two items I love that are also work-appropriate:
I'd like to enter your giveaway! You look amazing, by the way!

Hi I'd like to enter! I just found your blog a few days ago, linked from College Fashion. I might be your twin because I, too, am a petite Asian female living in the Boston area trying to dress professionally so that I don't look too young and can be taken seriously. Thanks for your fit guides and recommendations!
