OUTFIT | California girl in Tokyo

I am seriously a hapa through and through. Maybe that doesn’t make sense, since the true meaning of “hapa” is “being partially of East Asian, South East Asian, or Pacific Islander descent.” Even though I’ve met different kinds of hapas, I still think half or part-Japanese mixes are the most common.

    It was a slightly rainy, humid day in Tokyo yesterday, which made it the perfect opportunity to wear this pretty jumpsuit from Marisara, a fashion brand based in Bangkok.

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.
