Metro Mania




If I were living in North America, I would never associate the words "subway station" and "fashion". That is definitely not the case in Seoul. Countless stations have incredible underground shopping centers that are not only stylish, but also very convenient.




Some of my favorite unique pieces that I've acquired while living in Korea have been purchased at one of these stations. They sell a variety of items including: clothing, accessories, makeup, shoes, cell phone cases, food, coffee and even selfie sticks.




Affordable, trendy items don't have to break the bank. You are able to pick up a variety of styles at a minimal cost. I've been able to buy cute, functional purses for roughly $10, dresses for under $15 and tops for about $5. Picking up trendy items at subway stations has cleared my budget to buy higher quality staple pieces.




Stay posted to see some of my favorite subway station finds.


Besos,

Instadaily

Thanks to the Chuseok Holiday (Korean Thanksgiving) we had a very long weekend at the beginning of September, so I took the opportunity to visit Taipei, Taiwan! 

Taipei has always been at the top of my list of places to visit and I am so excited that I finally got to go!

Here is a roundup of some instagram photos I took during my visit!

The Hawaii of Korea





Back in July we went on a beautiful trip to one of Korea's most famous tourist destinations: Jeju Island.


We visited waterfalls, ate black pork, explored the island, and got heavily bloated from eating so much good food.
