HELLO NIKKI STORE

NEW LISTINGS POSTED ON MY EBAY STORE :) Check it out..

Make a difference when you shop! Donations from my eBay listings go towards the Divine Mercy Eucharistic- Mary's House located in San Pablo, CA. I feel very strongly about this cause because it provides an outlet for pregnant women to turn, give the option as a halfway house so women do not need to choose abortion and helps women get back on their feet after childbirth. This home is run by donations from the proceeds of their volunteer-run thrift shop and because I felt very fortunate during my pregnancy, I relate to the importance of how having the support can make such an impact :)

Boudin Bakery is an original San Francisco Company, famous for it's Sourdough French Bread and clam chowder. Being SF's oldest running company, they continue to provide fresh quality food at affordable prices. I think I ate here everyday on my break from work and I highly recommend the "Best of Boudin's" and get a turkey avocado sandwich on a croissant with a side of spring salad- it's an excellent combination.

We went to the flagship location at the Wharf and this place is massive. 

Anyway,  thank you for your comments!  Aside from being a mom, I started my blog at my quarter life making 2009 a year to just take action! I've always had the love to travel and dine out and after being on a hiatus for 9 months I just wanted to continue my dreams of exploring the world and taste everything life has to offer! I review places I love, go to, and offer my experiences with you.

And after the numerous messages on myspace I get about where I got certain clothes or questions about places I went, I decided to showcase everything on a blog. I know most girls hate to say where they got something from, but sharing is caring!

And bc my closet is too small to hold all the contents of everything I consume,  I decided to sell stuff to my friends and I currently sell my clothes that I've loved on my eBay store.

So I'm like a Nikki Survey or what I like- Hello Nikki- in the pursuit of being able to travel then blog and be at home with Mav so it works out well. 

And giving back means such a big thing to me which is why building an awareness on cerain issues plays such a huge part in my blogging.

So thank you all for your inquisitiveness. I do have an amazing family, the best of friends and a beautiful life- I feel truly blessed and I thank God every chance that I get. 

 Always remember, life isn't about what happens to you it's about what you do that makes a difference. Glad you all are getting a kick. ;)  Cheers.

DO THE (RED) THING

(ZOA NY white v neck, Folded & Hung red denim skirt, FCUK wedges)

There's something about a red clothing item that just makes an outfit pop. Whether it be shoes, a purse or even a skirt like this one above. And speaking of red I've been seeing those shirts from GAP everywhere suggesting words to- get INSPI(RED), be ADMI(RED), feel EMPOWE(RED), be DESI(RED), ADO(RED), TREASU(RED) or be simply BO(RED). There are many ways you can make a difference when you shop because no matter how much you do, it's in giving where you ultimately feel fulfilled. This (RED) initiative consists of a partner of brands, where every time you purchase a (RED) product or service the company will give up to fifty percent of it's profit to the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Africa. To date, the (RED) idea has generated more than $120 million for the global fund. So when you buy (RED) you save lives, so take action and join the (RED) movement.

• Another sweater/dress I got when I was in Hong Kong.
• I love this dress- it reminds me of the Alexander Wang Baggy Long Sleeve Sweater without the $595 price tag. 
  
• It was ridiculously breezy  sunday and this "sweater" provided no warmth whatsoever considering all the holes allowing the wind to hit directly to my skin.
• But thank god we didn't get run over taking these shots.
