As promised, I was finally able to document Thursday nights at Dazzling Lounge.  The Red Dragon roll and the Cabernet Merlot are my signature picks and I never get sick of any of it!  Just looking at these photos make my mouth water!  I was hoping to take a lot more photos of the evening, especially the crazy crowd and the brilliant band, of course, but the dj was really on point that night that I just had to dance away, forget about everything else and have a great time with my gals!

Love, Minka

Hi hunnies!  Sorry that I haven't posted in the past few days :(  It's just that I started working out again (shooting for a daily routine - yikes!) and my body is so sore in the mornings that my mind cannot focus on putting together a great outfit.  Instead, all I want to do is get ready, quick, then get out of the house and off to work.  Since Spring is just around the corner, I thought it's time to get that hot body that I've been dreaming of ready for Summer show-off.

And speaking of Spring, I thought I'd get started with the vibrant colours now so at least something will brighten up my day even if the sun refuses to.  So I put this outfit together, and unfortunately, my camera died after only 3 lousy shots, but I hope you get the drift.

I might branch out just a tad little from my neutral minimalistic looks this Spring and Summer and experiment with colours and patterns.  I am definitely feeling bold and brave both in my workouts and fashion choices so stay tuned!

The neutral combinations with the shot of red and fuschia and the two-toned blazers...GENIUS!

I spend time in Eaton Center more than at my own apartment (is that sad?). 

My girls and I went to Dazzling Lounge last night (our regular Thursday spot) and had a fantastic time, as always.  Except that the next morning, I'm left feeling borderline hungover because of the $33 Cabernet Merlot bottles we get and the Red Dragon roll that I always eat, to the point that the waitress, Mary (hi Mary!) don't even have to ask what I am having for the night.  The other sad thing is that everytime I want to take photos of the night at Dazzling, my camera battery coincidentally is always at 15% or less.  I do promise, however, that the next time I am there, I will share the event with you as it truly is such a fun place to be.  Let's just say that there is a phenomenal live band that covers the greatest R&B hits and the best djs in the city, with guests appearances from celebrities (you really don't know who is going to turn up that night)!

Hence, these photos are a true representation of my mood today - relaxed and maybe a little moody, lol.

Have a great weekend everyone!!! xo

Almost everyday, I would stop by Indigo for a quick glance at fashion books and magazines to absorb new inspirations.  I love discovering new designers, styles, ensembles and ideas.  This is what keeps the fashion industry thriving - the contribution of so many creative minds who have the confidence to boldly present their unique individual styles through clothing and acessories.  Fashion is like cooking, you mix and improvise with delicious ingredients in so many ways and you come up with endless recipes to a mouthwatering outcome.  That's why it is important for me to be constantly researching for new looks and ideas, which in turn, helps me discover my own style and hopefully also inspire others.
