It’s still rainy season in Japan, even though it’s already July. But I remember last year around this time, it was extremely hot and humid, where by 10 AM I was already drenched in sweat. So I guess you can say I prefer this weather so much more.
To match the gloomy weather, I wanted to go for a simple, all-black monotone look with some contrasting white with my Skywatch and new faux leather triangle purse from Front Row Shop. When I saw this pretty thing on their website, I knew I had to add this to my purse collection. The triangular shape is so unique, and it is surprisingly useful and fits all of my essentials. I just let it dangle from my wrist when I am walking around. Despite the rain, I really wanted to wear sandals, so I opted for my semi-platform sandals from Aldo – I feel like they don’t get my feet as wet as I walk through puddles. Even adding a cute umbrella will make you look even more stylish in the rain.
Lisa and I found this cool food truck in the middle of Omotesando that sells bomb burgers and fries. The cold earl grey tea I had was such a refreshing treat in the humidity. Looking forward to trying some of the other items on their menu.
Check out other amazing items from frontrowshop.com – it’s already become one of my favorite go-to online stores. Follow them on Instagram at @frontrowshop !

That dress is perfect on you! Love how you added gold details to it- plus that white purse looks so cute! Love the outfit! Great way to boost up the mood in Japan; it's really sunny and hot here in Edmonton, Canada right now! 😉
Have a great day!

mmm food trucks are my absolute weakness- i can't say no to them! and i LOVE your outfit here. i'm super into simple, monochromatic looks this summer, and i'd wear your outfit in a heartbeat. also, what kind of shoes do you wear during rainy season? chicago has been getting TONS of rain this summer and i cant find a cute rainboot. sigh.
