Relaxed days

  My last post from my trip to California – this was from my last day there in Huntington Beach. I made a short but sweet stop at Sweet Elle Cafe with Sylvia and her friend, and we later headed over to Huntington Beach Public Library for a quick shoot. I did a photo shoot … Continue Reading

On to Melrose

It’s been almost 2 years since I’ve stopped by Melrose and it feels great to be back. After having lunch with my brother at Umami Burger, we went to Freak Chic Piercings & Tattoos because I’ve been wanting another piercing (I have 10 now… yes I’m addicted). Thanks to my brother, I finally have photos … Continue Reading

Aquamarine

  A few more from my weekend outing in Kawagoe. I had no idea plain, plastic water bottles could create something so pretty like this. I think the yellow foliage added a nice touch. This jacket I grabbed from Forever 21 was such a steal – I found a similar one at Zara for twice … Continue Reading

All of the lights

I had the pleasure of shooting with Lisa again, this time during the evening hours in Midtown, Roppongi. I really wanted to check out the pretty illuminations, and it seemed like Lisa enjoyed them, too. It was a bit difficult to get some good shots in the dark, but she her amazing photography skills shined … Continue Reading

Shinokubo street style

I feel like Sundays are meant to be dressed down, which is why I grabbed the most comfortable pieces in my closet. I finally spent some quality time with my good friend Arisa in Shinokubo. We stuffed ourselves with delicious Korean BBQ and hottoku, and chatted away for 3 hours straight. Love you girl! Hope everyone … Continue Reading

Busy streets of Shibuya

I had another fun shoot with Lisa this weekend in Shibuya. This alma mater jacket from my work is from Spring/Summer, but I paired it with some more recent Zara picks and my Converse hightops that I’ve owned since my university days.  Funny how they come in handy, like, 2 years later. I don’t know if … Continue Reading

In love with…

Currently obsessed with this striped flare dress from Le Ciel Bleu. The minute I tried it on, I knew it was the perfect dress – sophisticated & elegant, a piece that could be worn both day & night. Still debating whether I should buy it or not.. but extremely tempted! The photographer at my work … Continue Reading

Back to black

I went back to black… literally. I got a new do this weekend and decided to sort of go back to my natural hair color (black) and sport some bangs again. Like I said in my last post, I can’t get enough of black. The heels and blazer I’m wearing here are a bit old, … Continue Reading

Trend: plaid

For some odd reason, I’m really attracted to black clothing this season, probably because it goes well with most of my favorite A/W trends such as this plaid shirt I’m wearing from Le Ciel Bleu. There’s a little gradation detail going on that I couldn’t capture well on camera, but it’s quite unique. And the … Continue Reading

Still a California girl

  I spent a relaxing Friday at Daikanyama with my photographer friend, who took these photos for me. Having a nice lunch at Urth Caffe and carrying around my favorite Dezso clutch doesn’t really make me miss California all that much. Have a great weekend everyone!  (Shirt:old from Urban Outfitters; shorts: uniqlo; clutch: Dezso; sandals: … Continue Reading
