I was so thrilled when this package arrived this morning from Good After Nine, a jewelry brand based in Thailand. The animal rings are the cutest, and I can’t wait to wear these 🙂 Thank you! More outfit & detailed photos coming soon! I ended up going to the Maybelline after party for Mercedes Benz … Continue Reading
It’s not too often I pull out my heels to play a little bit of dress up. Although this outfit is on the casual side with the simple trench coat and dress, I think the heels made a difference. I found these pastel blue heels at Zara and they are actually pretty comfortable! I went … Continue Reading
Please allow me to introduce Skyed Apparel – a quality hat brand based in Los Angeles, California. The name “skyed” represents the freedom and optimism for future possibilities, that “the sky is the limit.” I was immediately drawn to the unique designs and materials of their hats, especially this black corduroy “midnight” hat. The logo … Continue Reading
Even though the classic Vans checkered slip-on sneakers have been around for a while, it wasn’t until this year that I decided to finally buy my own pair. I grew up in Surf City, California, so these babies weren’t unfamiliar to me at all – the minute I slipped them on my feet, I felt … Continue Reading
 You probably won’t believe me when I say it’s been raining all day today, because just a few days ago it was so sunny! I spent a quick afternoon in Okachimachi with Lisa the other day, a stop on the Yamanote line that I’ve actually never gotten off at before. It proved to be … Continue Reading

That’s all I’m going to say now. Saturday, I … Continue Reading
 Yesterday, I met up with fellow blogger Ena for lunch at Urth Caffe in Omotesando. She is the most bubbly and sweetest girl ever! Her older sister has done my makeup for several test shoots since I moved to Tokyo – she is also very sweet and down-to-earth. We enjoyed an organic Italian omelette … Continue Reading
 Tonight, my friend Amy and I attended the launch party for the Kate Spade Saturday 2014 AW Collection. I can’t believe I’ve never shopped at this store! So many cute & affordable items for fall/winter were available for show at the party. I especially loved their bags, wallets and pouches – so chic and … Continue Reading
Thank you so much for the encouraging and insightful comments on my last diary post! I’m so glad I added that little segment in my blog. Right when I thought fall had arrived… it started getting warm again. The weather was fantastic yesterday when Lisa and I shot this photos, but still, it was a … Continue Reading
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. So what I really … Continue Reading
