I truly believe that the happiest of days are when you do things completely and unapologetically for you. For example, I woke up and made myself a bomb breakfast- just because I wanted to. I saw a recipe for a blueberry/cream cheese quesadilla and I just had to try it. So I did. And it absolutely sucked. But I did it. And it felt great doing something that I wanted to do. It was great fulfilling a goal, even if it was just a small one. 

So I kept with it. I was like, "What do you want to do right now?"I wanted to go buy some shoes. And I found what may be the best shoes of my shopping career. Darling Cynthia Rowley mint blue flats, I couldn't be more in love with- for only $30 dollars. (I also picked up a great plate set for only $17 and some sweet new washcloths) Shout out to TJ Maxx. And after that I went and got one of my favorite snacks- caprese salad- and called it lunch. Namaste. 

Then I was like, hey, the gym's open! (p.s. I never, ever, ever go to the gym) So I went to they gym and put my new favorite song - Replay by Zendaya - literally on replay and worked out for one. whole. hour. (This is a lot for me who does 20 crunches and calls it a day.) And it was actually fun. And I actually liked it. p.s. I don't sweat, I glisten. 

Finally I finished my day with my absolute favorite meal in the world- The Maki Roll Dinner Special from Kim Moon with an Alaska Roll a California Roll Miso Soup and an Eggroll- and watched a movie I've been waiting to see for, like, ever with my favorite man in the world Leonardo DiCaprio.

p.s. Wolf of Wallstreet is scary. But I was into it. p.s.s. Leo where's your Oscar at omigod. 

And alas, here I am now watching Project X for the third time in 24 hours and feeling so, so, so good about it. p.s. Omigod I love you, Miles Teller. 

So bottom line here is: listening to your heart is chic. 

Taking time for yourself to fulfill goals, no matter how small they are, is so, so, so freaking chic.

stay happy, stay chic. Namaste.
