Amazon Fashion Week Tokyo – DRESSEDUNDRESSED & Leonard Wong

Last week was Amazon Fashion Week Tokyo, one of the busiest weeks of the year for those working in the fashion industry. These are actually from the third day of shows, and I went for an overall dark color palette for that day’s outfit. DRESSEDUNDRESSED and Leonard Wong 2017 S/S collections were both fantastic, DRESSEDUNDRESSED … Continue Reading

Mixing the old with the new

You can never go wrong with an oversized, ankle-length cardigan. While there are many ways to style one, this time I opted for simple, yet quality pieces in my wardrobe. My favorite Rag & Bone tee, a pleather skirt, my mom’s old LV purse, a silver bangle with a leather wrap-around from Spanish jewelry brand … Continue Reading

Black & white nostalgia

Black & white photography immediately arouses feelings of nostalgia. I’m a pretty nostalgic person at heart, especially since I live a completely different life than I did until 4 years ago. モノクロ写真はノスタルジアを感じさせます。私自身が結構ノスタルジックになりがちで、東京に来る前の時期をいつも思い出します。 Forever 21 dress, Chiara Ferragni espadrilles, Are You Am I choker, zeroUV sunglasses         All photos by Gabriel Perez.  

Pleated blue velvet

From the previous weekend when I had a delicious buffet-style brunch at the Shinjuku Park Hyatt. A girl has to spoil herself sometimes, you know? 先週末、新宿のパークハイアットでビュッフェスタイルブランチより。たまには自分にご褒美してもいいよね。 Top & bottom: Bershka; hat: Moussy; bag: Metrocity; choker: Asos; watch: Klasse 14; shoes: Adidas       

Black lace dress

A black slip dress is a more versatile piece than most think. Once it gets a little cooler, I plan to layer it with a plain white tee or even a pair of jeans. And the elegant lace neckline in this one just goes so well with my chokers♡ 黒のスリップワンピースは、以外と万能なアイテムなんです。もうちょっと涼しくなったら、白Tシャツをインしたり、デニムと一緒に着てみたりしようかなと思ってます。エレガントなレースのネックラインがチョーカーと相性がいいので、お気に入りです♡ dress: OZOC; jacket: Vintage Levi’s; shoes: … Continue Reading

An all-black uniform

I’m currently reading 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami and it’s one of the most interesting reads I’ve had in a while. I decided to start reading it without reading any summaries or reviews, and it was nothing like I had expected, which is a good thing. Sometimes picking up a book and not expecting the expected … Continue Reading

Shades of burgundy

I absolutely love wearing dark colors, so fall & winter trends and color palettes are naturally my favorite. And these Asos sock boots and Metrocity quilt bag arrived just in time. Pairing these red hues with a mix of darks and lights made them stand out even more. I love how the bag can become … Continue Reading

Sporty black mesh

  I haven’t taken a real summer vacation since I graduated college, so a rare outing is the closest to one for me. And this was also a rare occasion where a photographer and I took 5 hours worth of public transportation to get to a certain location. Can you guess where this is? Hakone … Continue Reading

Kate Spade New York 2016 Holiday Collection

Kate Spade New York really knows how to do “holiday wear.” I think the girly girl in me came out when I visited their showroom at the Ginza store in Tokyo. Their 2016 Holiday Collection was all sorts of dazzle and sparkle, from party dresses to shoes to handbags. Theres something fun and girly for … Continue Reading

Flared all over

The transition between August and September, from summer to fall, is probably one of my favorites of the year. Adding touches of fall to my outfits is also something I look forward to. While I would never wear fitted pants during the sweltering heat of summer, now I can opt for denim and still feel … Continue Reading
