Happy Lunar New Year!

 Happy Monday, ladies! We just came home this morning at 1:00 a.m. from an out of state competition. I am pretty exhausted right now but we are so proud of Madelyn. 2 competitions down, 3 more to go. Sharing my new Vietnamese ao dai that I got this year. Years ago, it wasn't easy to find a Vietnamese ao dai in the U.S or maybe I didn't know where to look. I think 3 years ago, a random search led me to Etsy and I've been purchasing all my dresses from Etsy (my dress in 2020 and 2021). Prices are pretty reasonable and everything I purchased so far fit amazing. This year I decided to go with this design and I love it. It's classic but different than the typically red and yellow color palette. I plan to wear this to church to celebrate Lunar New Year this weekend. I also made a bunch of Vietnamese mung bean cakes and banana cakes to share with friends and family. Thank goodness, I only have to do it once a year because they're so time consuming. I spent 2 days on these cakes but I enjoyed doing it. I've shared the recipe and how to make them here. If you celebrate Chinese/Lunar New Year, hope this new year brings you good fortune, peace and prosperity. Outfit details: Vietnamese dress | Chanel earrings *exact pair*
