Austin time (2)








The Next Day at Austin,
      We woke up late the next day, grabbed some breakfast and decided to go to the Botanical Garden, Austin. Since it was early spring, there were few flowers in full bloom. Nevertheless, we carried on and walked around the garden. The Japanese garden was my favorite part because of the beautiful green bamboo trees (which compensated for the absence of flowers)! 
       The outfit here (as you may have already noticed, is recycled from previous look), I held on to the white blazer and my sneakers. The leather skirt is very versatile (can be dressed up or down), the silver zippers on sides streamlines the body and makes yr torso look longer (shhh!!). The crop top has a boxy silhouette, which I love! 
   
Cheers

Austin Time (1)





H&M Shirt, Thrifted Blazer, Ideal Trousers, Aldo Boots, H&M sunnies, Vintage Chanel Bag


          Spring is finally here!!! Well, at least the much-awaited Spring Break is here. :)

Some of my friends and I headed to Austin last weekend for some spring-break/birthday-celebration mash up (since you know.... when you are too busy to do anything, try killing two birds with one stone!). Anyways, we planned a two-day trip to Austin, hoping to catch the tail end of the South-by-South West Festival (SXSW). Austin is around four-hour drive from Dallas, so after we reached our hotel at Austin, we quickly freshened up and changed to go Kayaking. The weather was so wonderful and we had such a lovely time (Details below). By one hour, we all were exhausted and famished. 









          We drove to Oasis, Austin (30 mins drive) to grab some meal before heading out to the festival. The sunset was amazing and the colors were magnificent; the way each sunray hit the lake just before the water swallowed it. It reminded me of what exactly Peeta was referring to, when he explained Katniss his favorite color (the Hunger Games series, if you know what I mean..Cheers!).
