♫ “February Air” – LIGHTS Mustard has always been a “taboo” color for me, despite being a huge fan of it. One of my mentors told me that I didn’t look good in yellow while I was trying on a jacket, and I took that to heart. Last year I decided I didn’t care if […]
♫ “麦恩莉” – 方大同. It hit 80F today! We had to bring out our fans from the storage, which means winter is “officially” over in Seattle haha. I can count the number of people I know that own AC on one hand, because it doesn’t usually get hot enough to justify the installation costs. Fans usually […]
♫ “Roar (Vintage Motown cover feat. Annie Goodchild)” – Scott Bradlee. It snowed last night!! Ahhh! Unfortunately it’s already melting, but I managed to snap some photos this afternoon. 🙂 Despite the snow, I still wear skirts! hahaha thank goodness for insulated + thick tights 🙂 I really love messenger bags, but because of my preferred […]
♫ “Towers (Stop the Car remix)” – Bon Iver. Lately the weather here has gone from low/mid 40s to plummeting low 20s in a matter of days. As if I don’t layer 365 days a year, I feel myself becoming a woolly cocoon with each passing day. I own one (partial) down coat, but it’s a […]
Our last installment of photo days ended in Beverly Hills, on Rodeo Dr. We finally managed to drag ourselves outside during non-Vampire hours and headed North! The cool thing about going to all these places is that I’m (finally) learning the SoCal map. 🙂 Took some test shots in front of the sun! After a […]
Today we woke up late (again, as usual, this is nothing new, etc etc) – at around 2PM? Jeez. On our next photo adventure, we picked The Grove and Melrose. I’d been to the Grove before with family, but only to walk through and hang around Barnes n Noble’s. Lex got his haircut before leaving, […]
Just got back from my week-long vacation in California visiting friends and attending ALA 2014! I’m beyond exhausted and aching from a lot of weird skin allergies that are still mysteriously reappearing every day, but I’m excited at the same time to update my blog with more recent content. 🙂 Let’s get started! After pulling […]
The past few weeks have been intenseeeeeeeeeee. Midterms was two weeks ago… I only have one fashion class this quarter so I actually got a lot of time to work on my garment. 🙂 OCT 23 — Intermediate Patternmaking is proving to be so much better than I’d feared. I patterned out this dress from […]
H&M’s men’s section has the best sweaters, I swear. Despite being “slightly” bitter about the poor quality and thickness in women’s sweaters in most fast-fashion stores, H&M is a sigh of relief to me — at least their menswear is. To be completely honest, I’m not even sure if I have a single piece of […]
It’s been forever since I’ve actually taken time to do an OOTD/haul post so I figured I’d kill two birds with one stone and review the most recent shop I’ve purchased from, Forestale. So a little background info: Forestale is an online store based in the Philippines that caters to the mori girl lifestyle. It’s […]
