Just Add Glam

the San Francisco lifestyle blog by JENNIFER HENRY-NOVICH

January 28, 2013 / FASHION

Make a Statement

Top: J.Crew // Skirt: Wilfred via Aritzia // Blazer: c/o Baukjen // Necklaces: unknown brands via TJ Maxx // Heels: Vince Camuto, similar here // Bracelet: Jessica Simpson // Sunglasses: Forever 21 // Bag: Celine // Car: 2013 Acura ILX c/o Acura 

This past week I teamed up with Acura to experience the new 2013 Acura ILX in all of its luxurious glory!  Fun fact about this fashionista: I know how to drive a manual transmission…and very well!  It was so much fun cruising around the city of San Francisco, across the Golden Gate Bridge, and through the winding hills of the Bay Area.  I really liked how the Acura ILX was a sporty and powerful car, but wrapped up in a luxurious package of leather and posh upgrades.  For my outfit, I wanted a look that was polished and just as lux as the ILX so I opted for my go-to Baukjen blazer and a new favorite Wilfred skirt in a warm metallic fabric.  For my shoes, I chose a shorter heel height since I wanted something that could easily handle quick clutch and gear shifting, whether I was zooming down Lombard street or sitting in stop and go traffic on Highway 101.  I loved how I could sync my phone with the car so that I could still stay connected to phone calls and texts while keeping my focus on the road.  But aside from the sleek design and understated luxury, my favorite aspect was the ample trunk space–lots of cargo space for a fashion blogger to tote around her closet in style!  I absolutely loved making a fashion statement in the Acura ILX while rocking my glam statement necklaces!

    You always make a statement whether in or out of this beautiful car. Love the coloring in this skirt and all your luxurious touches. As if I thought you could get any cooler the fact that you can drive a stick shift makes you even more awesome. I think that’s what I’m going back to with my new car… SF hills be damned! 😉

Finally tried @dintaifungusa and wow! So good! Her Finally tried @dintaifungusa and wow! So good! Here’s what we ordered:

🌟Cucumber Salad - a bright and light starter I’d love to make these at home (and @glucosegoddess would be proud!)
🌟String Beans with Garlic - I would have eaten 3 more orders of this had they not been $16/each. I’ve already been searching for copy cat recipes because they are just SO DAMN GOOD
🌟Kurobuta Pork Xiao Long Bao - these are their classic soup dumpling and very yummy and chewy and I loved the soy-vinegar sauce pairing with it
🌟 Sticky Rice & Kurobuta Pork Shao Mai - these were recommended in a TikTok video but they weren’t my favorite. The rice plus the dough was just too much IMO
🌟 Chicken Spicy Wontons - these were very good! I would drink the bowl of sauce if no one was watching…
🌟 Chocolate & Mochi Xiao Long Bao - wow, what a great to end the meal! We don’t order dessert often but this really good. Love the melty creamy chocolate!

Can’t wait to go back! Have you been? You’ve got to try it!
I waited to share putting my 2023 vision board tog I waited to share putting my 2023 vision board together until late January because there it’s so much buzz around the new year and goal setting around the start of the new year…but how about waiting until the buzz around it starts to fade? I’ve been committed since 12/31/2022 but if you need some fresh inspiration for 2023…here you go!

Last year I made a digital vision board in Canva with about 8 vague photos and I never looked at it. This year, I got a huge poster board and nearly 100 very specific images of the things I want. VERY specific. In the short 3 weeks having this propped up in my office and seeing it each day, I’m already seeing the needle moving on these items! 

Have you created a vision board or set goals for 2023? What doe is mean to you? How are you achieving your goals this year? #goalsetting #visionboard
