Nordstrom Rack: Abound top and BCBGeneration Casey heels, BCBG jacket (old purchased at Guam outlet), American Eagle shorts, Meredith Hahn necklace, Mimi Boutique bag, Prada sunglasses, Daniel Wellington watch

Subtle is my favorite rebuttal.

Meaning, when I’m tired of my wardrobe I get back at it by wearing the most simple, basic pieces I have. However, after some thought I just couldn’t resist adding some edgy and tough accessories like zippers, studs and fringe. And you know it’s better to fall back on basic because later it is easier to emerge renewed and inspired. 

I actually got my top and heels at Nordstrom Rack this past weekend and went a little shopping-cart-crazy. You will have to wait to see my other purchases but I am pleased to say that my receipt reports a saving of $176! They had a whole bunch of Back to School racks and seriously the deals are incredible. If I had had more time I would have grabbed some Joes Jeans and 7 for all Mankind denim. One girl asked my opinion on a pair of $1000 Valentino heels marked down to $250. I said she better get them or I will! 🙂

Did you guys know that Nordstrom Rack is now online!? Now shopping with great savings is even easier! They get new stuff daily so don’t be afraid to check NordstromRack.com out. Don’t forget also that Nordstrom Rack wants to know YOUR shopping confession too!

    Hi Jessica,I second the request for the eye makeup tutorials! Especially if you can post videos on youtube.I'm half Chinese, half white and I've never found a makeup tutorial that works for my eyes. They're similar to yours. My mum's the white parent, so no help there! Plus all the Asian makeup gurus either seem to have a monolid or big double eyelids that look nothing like mine. Your tutorials would probably end up being my go-to for eye makeup looks and I know a lot of other mixed Asian women who'd feel the same way!

    After I saw this photo of you in a leather jacket and how beautiful you can turn an outfit I was actually searching for one too but I can't seem to find one that I feel fits my body. Anyways, you're so beautiful, Jessica! I love your style! ♡♡♡
