OUTFIT | Tropical prints in the rain

The rain comes and goes, and this was one of those days where it was pouring on us while we were trying to shoot. Luckily, Lisa and I found some decent locations where we could avoid the rain. One of the more high-end areas in Tokyo, Omotesando is probably one of my favorite places to … Continue Reading

OUTFIT | A 2D affair with Jump from Paper

It’s been a while since I posted an outfit. With the humidity creeping in over here, I could live in shorts every single day. Shorts aside, I want to introduce the cutest brand ever, Jump from Paper. I seriously had to do a double take when I saw the bags on their website – everything … Continue Reading

OUTFIT | Mesh details in monochrome

    You can always count on Shibuya to be colorful and full of life with the hustle and bustle of city-goers. That’s why I chose to shoot this particular outfit here.

OUTFIT | Colorful vibes in Huntington Beach

I currently live in an area where it takes 2 hours in the least to get to the nearest beach, so it was a real privilege growing up next to one in Surf City Huntington Beach. My brother and I took a quick drive to our local beach and enjoyed some California sun. When my … Continue Reading

OUTFIT | Black and white with a hoodie on top

I’m back in my hometown but only for a short week. I thought I would do a quick outfit post with photos courtesy of my youngest brother.

Sugamo, a different side of Tokyo

In my previous post, I mentioned that Sugamo is a little part of Tokyo that is unlike the heavily populated areas like Shibuya or Shinjuku. The “Shoutengai” districts with rows of mom and pop shops seem to be slowly disappearing, as larger supermarkets and department stores take their places. One of my favorite things about … Continue Reading

OUTFIT | JUST LIKE ME YOU CAN PLAY WORK LOVE

When one thinks of Tokyo, 90% of the time they imagine crowded, neon light-flashing streets of bustling Shibuya, Shinjuku or colorful Harajuku. But honestly, there is more to Tokyo than those tourist-favorite locations. Lisa of Paint with Stars and I share a liking for the more quiet and traditional areas in Tokyo, and Sugamo turned … Continue Reading

OUTFIT | Windy affairs in a blue trench coat

Wearing many of my favorite items in one outfit is always a satisfying feeling. I recently shopped at COS in Minami-Aoyama for the first time, and I immediately fell in love with their beautiful, vivid colors and clean silhouettes. Even though it is starting to become a bit warm to be wearing a trench coat, … Continue Reading

OUTFIT | Hip hop vibes in Shibuya

A quick outfit post from a couple days back. I had a my friend snap these after our lunch date at Weekend Garage Tokyo in Shibuya. This was the day of the adidas party, so I was like, “I have to wear my adidas no matter what!” and this is the outfit I came up … Continue Reading

OUTFIT | Business casual with Metrocity

    I’ve been a little bit MIA this weekend, due to a cold and a fever that has been and is still persistent. I’m getting better though, so no worries. Make sure you don’t catch a cold in the middle of spring (it sucks!). These were taken last week when I had an audition … Continue Reading
