adventure day/review!

 

I went on an adventure with my boyfriend and he took cute photos of me so I could show you guys a few of my recent purchases and my favorite bakery by my apartment!

 

 

The bakery is called Merely Sweets and it's located in Downtown Brea, which is just straight down one road from my apartment. I can honestly say out of the several (this word being an understatement) macarons I've eaten in my life, their green tea macarons have to be the most quality ones. I also get salted caramel, pistachio, and coffee from here and they are rich in cream! I would like to try more but the green tea and salted caramel will forever have my heart. If I'm ever craving those flavors, this place is my go-to bakery! I haven't tried any of the pastries yet but the presentation is honestly so pretty and cute, it looks really yummy!

 

tea party blouse: 10/10
this blouse is made of a material similar to chiffon, but it's a lot softer and it's really comfortable! It has a peter pan collar and a blue bow. Since I tucked it in my skirt, you can't see the bottom of the it but it's long enough to even fit like a dress, and there's a tea pot outline embroidered on it. It's super cute and reminds me of Alice in Wonderland, and looks a lot better in person than it does in photos!
 denim skirt: 10/10
I got this circle skirt from American Apparel a long time ago, but I've had friends ask me about American Apparel's clothing! I own 9 skirts from there so far, and if that doesn't tell you about the quality of their clothes I don't know what else does. they can get a bit pricey but you get what you pay for, everything I own there has been used several times but it has kept the same condition. their circle skirts are my absolute favorite!
 bag: 7/10
this kitty bag was a little bulkier than I expected it to be, but it's still cute! there's a lot of room in it, but it's a little stiff to open. it's still really cute, but I gave it a 7 because of the stiffness, and I don't really like gold-chained bags.
I am absolutely in LOVE with these flats. it was my first time purchasing from bodyline and I was really skeptical about it at first, but after this pair I plan on purchasing so much more! I didn't give it a full 10 because they are painful to break into... I got blisters the first day I wore them, but honestly that happens to me every time I break into new shoes :c they are a little stiff when you wear them at first, but after that they are completely comfortable and super cute. another reason I didn't give it a full 10 was because they scuff/scratch easily, so you have to be extra careful when wearing them! other than that, they are probably my new favorite pair of flats.
