Here are all of my favorites for this years Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.
I don’t even know where to start when this sale comes around. This is usually the time I buy my brown boots for the fall season, but my boots have kept up their look and shape. The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is definitely the best time to buy your favorite pricy item because it is most likely marked down. For non-card holders the sale begins July 20th and ends on August 5th. I’d say my favorite item at the moment is the Double V Rib Knit Tank, perfect to throw on with any type of shorts for the summer. FYI it comes in a ton of different colors!

That’s a Wrap: Sleeping Giant Hike
And just like that my freshman year at Quinnipiac University has ended. To celebrate completing finals and heading home, my closest friends and I decided a nice way to end the semester would be hiking the Sleeping Giant. Lucky for us the state the park is across from Quinnipiac’s campus.
Today was the perfect day for a hike. It was warm, with clear skies and sun. Apparently, there are two ways of hiking the mountain. One path reaches the top of the mountain over looking Quinnipiac. The other path takes you up to a castle. We didn’t have all the time in the world today so we did the quicker route to the castle.
After the hike, we ended the day with Pokemoto and shopping. It was so nice to spend all morning and afternoon relaxing and unwinding from the chaotic, stressful week we all had.
Transition into Fall w/ Zaful
Yay! Fall has finally taken full affect. With some areas still a little warm, I wanted to create looks that could be worked into fall and summer. The online store Zaful was kind enough to send me a bunch of different pieces of clothing to try out.
In the beginning I choose things that had been out of stock, I wasn’t notified and had to figure that out on my own. Once I noticed I contacted customer service where they had me choose new items. Customer service worked extremely well with me and once the pieces came in I realized it was worth the small hassle.
Delivery took about 2 weeks and some items did come separately, all together I received 3 separate bags. When you first open your package you will most likely notice the extreme wrinkles in each piece of clothing. Fortunately, once ironed the items look 100% perfect. For the most part the pieces were true to size, the site is very inexpensive making it affordable for nearly anyone. I definitely will be purchasing from this site sometime soon.

Asbury Sun & Sushi
On a day full of endless sun and toasty weather we all just want to be outside. When I began to get tired of the same routine summer activities I decided I’d head just a half hour south to Asbury Park. They’re focusing on modernizing the space and creating a relaxed, slower paced urban area. A hotspot for older teens and adults to enjoy a nice bit to eat, the boardwalk, concerts at The Stone Pony and so much more. You may even catch Bruce Springsteen strolling around (that is if you’re lucky). I adore the atmosphere and relaxed vibes the area gives off. It reminds me a little of West Village in NYC based on its ambience.
I just can never get enough sushi! At this point I’m surprised I haven’t turned into some type of sushi roll. Is that possible? Technically no but at this rate you never know. My friend and I headed over to Taka, an adorable Japanese restaurant in Asbury where you can be seated inside or outside. The Japanese restaurant seemed very modern, young and hip with its vibrant colors and fun furniture. I went the basic route in all my sushi choices although, I dressed each piece up with a number of different sauces. My sushi rolls were constantly soaked in teriyaki, eel and soy sauce to kick up the flavor of my not so exciting choices. Needless to say I ended up in a food coma but it didn’t matter because I enjoyed every bite of my sushi, to the last slice of ginger. The day was filled with the aroma of salt coming off the beach and savory pieces of sushi being guzzled down. I think it’s time to learn how to use chopsticks!
