Mustard Seed: A Birthday Weekend
















(Blouse - Mustard Seed | Skirt - Forever 21 | Sandals - Zara | Bag - H&M)
Surprisingly this outfit was my only attempt to dress up this weekend. It was an outfit I wore to my birthday lunch with some gal friends and their significant others. This blouse is easily my new favorite at the moment. Loving the scalloped detail on the collar and edges. I've been also taking my Zara Sandals out and about quite often. Other than that, my weekend get up consisted of casual tees and jeans because the boyf came for the weekend and I decided I wanted to be more outdoorsy. He had actually arrived earlier than expected to surprise me, so aside from horseback riding at Sunset Ranch and exploring the city, we indulged ourselves at more local spots such as Boiling Point, Umami Burger, and Ichima Sushi. Umami had their special "cheesy tator tots" and goodness, it was heavenly! Did I mention we also basically drowned ourselves in Boba (Bubble Tea) all weekend?

I had a fantastic birthday, and I hope you guys enjoyed these batch of pictures that basically summed up my festivities. Thank you guys so much for the birthday wishes!
