[Nov 2024] Company Holiday Parties

 

Hello again angels!! I can't believe it's Friday already. I hope you've been enjoying all the updates this week. We're almost into the 2025 backlog so I'm looking forward to finally talking about some of the more positive and interesting things in my life (˶˃ᆺ˂˶)

At the end of the year my company likes to throw a themed holiday party. In 2024 it was tropical island themed which... was definitely a choice cause it was freezing by then Σ(°ロ°)

Still I wanted to be a good sport and try dressing to the theme. I obviously had to go full gal for this so I put this outfit together and bundled myself under a long trench coat for the chilly commute to the venue (ง'̀-'́)ง

I feel like I didn't really have the time or energy to do gal make for most of October and November that year so I put in extra effort for this look and took a bunch of pics to lift my spirits.

The party was fun and I really appreciated that everyone dressed up more for this theme than the last one but maybe it's just because Hawaiian/tropical themed items are a little easier to buy compared to "snow disco/ball"?? (╭ರ_•́)

We also had a smaller dinner for just my team and it was really nice. 

This was a really cozy way to wind down from the crazy launch season and end the year. 

That's it for this post! Thanks for reading and I'll see you in the next one.

[Nov 2024] Usher: Past, Present, Future Tour

 

Hello angels, I hope you're having a great day. I wasn't sure if I wanted to make this post because I was disappointed to learn that Usher ended up touring with Chris Brown this year. I think to be fair to myself I'll just keep this one short so I don't provide these weirdos with more support.

I got my nails done earlier in the week and went with this sparkly nude design. I've always loved a scatter gem moment so needless to say I was obsessed with this set.

It was already cold and rainy here in November so I bundled up as best I could while still trying to look cute. I feel like I ended up going for a very millennial outfit ꉂ(˵˃ ᗜ ˂˵)

I was lucky to have gotten really good seats thanks to AMEX and coincidentally our friend Vivian also went to the concert and was sitting in a row near us. I've never really run into friends at concerts like this before so that was fun.

The show itself was really enjoyable and I felt super nostalgic listening to all these songs that came out when I was a teen. Just really unfortunate that I can't really enjoy them the same anymore. I'm genuinely so sad that Usher would associate with someone as shitty as Chris Brown in big 2026 ૮(◞ ‸ ◟ )ა

Besides that, the concert was awesome and I had a lot of fun. Usher is a really good performer and the crowd had great energy. I hadn't been to a concert in a while so it was nice to finally get out to one. I hope I get more opportunities soon but idk I feel like music is kinda blah these days. I'm really only looking forward to seeing BIGBANG. 

I did rediscover my love for theatre after New York so I've been seeing a lot of musicals since then, but that's a post for another time.

Thank you for reading! See you later ⊹ ࣪ ˖
