Living in A Fairytale – Self Portrait SS19 at New York Fashion Week
So excited to be invited to attend Self Portrait SS19 NYFW show at Spring Studios!
It was an amazing show, and I already know that Self Portrait never makes me feel bored. I personally love their dresses so much. Both my graduation exhibition’s opening and Marriage Registration, I chose Self Portrait to wear. Of course I have gotten so many compliments for the beautiful dresses.
This year, Self Portrait continues its modern fairytale style, but adds more bright colors. I love them and looking forward to having them when they are on market.
A lot of great influencers were invited, including Olivia Palermo, Aimee Song, Danielle Bernstein and Caroline Daur.

Café Boulud – New York Restaurant Week 2018
As a foodie living in New York, one of my favorite things in a year is always New York Restaurant Week! For this year, I tried four different restaurants already. Today, let me tell you my wonderful experience at Café Boulud!
I chose to go there for lunch, which is $26 for two course. I added $6 more for a dessert, which I feel it’s super worthy.
This is the Appetizers Menu, I chose Shrimp Tartine!
Looks beautiful! Tastes awesome!
For the Entrees, I chose Pan Seared Salmon. Yes, I am a seafood fan.
The dish is very pretty, I can’t help myself to draw. ^_^
Dessert! I ordered Peach Melba.
Everything at Café Boulud I can only say, is perfect. You have to go, but don’t forget to make reservation first. It is always packed.
The history of Café Boulud:
Named for the café Daniel Boulud’s family operated outside Lyon at the turn of the century, the modern-day Café Boulud opened in the original Upper East Side location of his eponymous restaurant DANIEL in 1998, when the flagship relocated to the historic Mayfair Hotel space on 65th street.
