Korea Trip (Last one)

 First time I got my nails done professionally! It was an awesome experience, but so expensive! I asked for dark green gradient with some glitters. Loved it for the Fall/Winter season.
 For those who loves seeing pictures of food... well you came to the right place! I love taking pictures of anything edible... This is omlette with pork gatsu. So yummy <3
 This was taken from a very famous shaved ice dessert--also known as Patbingsu 팥빙수-- place that is located on the top of the Hyun Dae Department store. During summer, it is so popular that people literally wait hours and hours to eat this. It was really yummy. The two white things on top are mochi. The reddish brownish thing is sweetened red bean paste. It's SO good. 
Yummiest garlic bread that I have ever encountered in my life! 
 Green tea milkshake & another shaved ice dessert (not as good as the other one though)
 The famous Ssamzigil 쌈지길. I didn't get to buy anything from there because it was so expensve, but I had a good time just looking around and enjoying the scenery. This place is very famous because you start at the ground level and then suddenly you reach  the top as you stroll along the stores. Does that make sense?
Lovely street scene. It was decorated like this because I went during the Holiday season, kinda. 
 This building was so pretty!
The colorful Seoul N Tower 서울 남산 타워. I think it was a good choice for us to go there at night time. So much more beautiful! 
 Ah. Korea.
Speechless scene from the top of the tower. ♥
I really wish I can go back to that day. It was amazing.

Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did!

Korea Trip (continued)

So through my Formspring, I got a suggestion saying that I should post more pictures from my Korea Trip. I took so many pictures that if I decided to upload them all, it will overwhelm my blog with it. So I am going to upload bits and pieces through a period of time. This is my second continued post about my Korea Trip. If you want to see my first blogpost about it, click here!


 This was one of many meals that I had. The food was yummy!
 This is called ganjang gejang (간장게장). It's basically crab marinated in soy sauce. As strange as that sounds, it's actually quite delicious.
This is takoyaki. It's a Japanese snack, I think.
 At night, we went to the Seoul Lantern Festival. It was gorgeous and filled my eye with joy. This was the entrance.

 Yup. These were all made by hand. I was just amazed by how grand and detailed it was.
 This was one of the fine attraction that people gathered around. It was so awesome!
While I was walking through the festival, I looked up and noticed the buildings in Seoul. This sight really hit me that I was actually in Korea. (even though it is my home country, I have not been there since 2006...) Also, it made me realize how I loved city life. I just had to snap a picture of it.

So this concludes my second post of my Korea Trip. I will probably post the third one up, so keep checking back if you don't wanna miss it!

South Korea Trip

So you guys might and might not know that I went to South Korea during my Thanksgiving Week. I was going to upload pictures from my trip, but I have been procrastinating on that. So today, I'll show you a sneak peak of my trip!

-


My perfume of the trip was Daisy by Marc Jacobs. This is my first floral perfume that I absolutely love and now whenever I smell this perfume, I think of Korea. Ahh.

My aunt owns a Burberry store so I just had some fun and took pictures wearing Burberry trench coat and bags. In Korean words, I was going for a 된장녀 look haha.

I went to the Seoul Lantern Festival 2011 (서울 등 축제). It was so awesome! I got to see beautiful lanterns that lightened up the city. 


My first time going to a nail salon... got my nails done like this! I loved it.

I took this photo on top of the Seoul N Tower.. The view was so overwhelming and surreal because I have not been to Korea in such a long time. It was really beautiful, too.

One of many dessert food I ate. Korea's food is AMAZING. ♥

So this is just a little bit of my trip. If you guys find this interesting, I will definitely post some more. I know I have not been posting alot... :( Bad Vicky.. I have many beautiful outfits made, but I just need to take the pictures...I'm also thinking about doing some YouTube videos.

Oh, if you guys are interesting, I made a Tumblr. My username is whitebuttondown.

Thank you, everyone!
