The color red is slowly but surely creeping into my wardrobe. With the winter sales going on in almost every store imaginable, I decided to stop by a few of my favorites, and found this cozy-looking sweater at Opening Ceremony. A remake of a vintage sweater, I didn’t realize what the print said until after … Continue Reading
Sometimes you think you know a location so well because you’ve been there so much, but it turns out you don’t really know. My photographer friend Viktor showed me an unknown area (at least to me) in Shibuya that was like time-traveling for me to the Showa Era. Tiny izakaya shops (aka Japanese bars) in … Continue Reading
A bit late, but Merry Christmas & happy holidays ya’ll. Christmas really gets me in the mood to dress up a little, and adding a pop of bright red with a simple turtleneck spiced up this holiday look. And fur, whether fake or real, is an easy way to add a luxurious feel to any … Continue Reading
Every time I meet and work with a new photographer, I am always amazed at their skill at capturing the model and atmosphere of the location with their unique vision. And Spanish photographer Yuky Lutz is no exception. Not until I saw the first photograph did I realize how beautiful a crazy city like Shinjuku … Continue Reading
If you’re someone like me who grew up in a city where you can’t tell the difference between summer and winter (oh, how I love you Huntington Beach, CA), then you’d probably be just as excited to take in the beauty that is autumn in Japan. Even in the middle of the city, one can … Continue Reading

This Forever 21 faux-fur coat could be glammed up, but I thought I’d tone it down with something sporty.

I’m recently very into vests because they provide the perfect level of warmth for these semi-chilly days. This faux leather/fur vest from Forever 21 is my favorite – it’s casual yet chic at … Continue Reading
Some of my fall basics featuring these must-have Bershka jeans. Just the right amount of slashed detail that they’re still classy, and oh so comfortable. 今期のベーシックを１コーデに揃えました。このBershkaのストレッチデニムはスラッシュディテールにも関わらず、クラシックな感じに着こなせます。 top: Topshop, jeans: Bershka, coat: Uniqlo, shoes: Vans, tote: Zara, sunglasses: Free People, watch: Fossil All photos by Paint with Stars Photography
Wit the change of season, I thought it would be a good time to upgrade some of my accessories. One Little Forest sent me some handmade cases for my iPhone, which was perfect to refresh some of my daily items. I love the minimal design of this henna-inspired iPhone wallet, and the fact that it … Continue Reading
“Romantic” is the best word to describe how I feel when I wear this New Romantics Beloved Floral dress from Free People. I rarely wear floral prints, but something subtle and deep in color like this is fine by me. The ribbon and the neckline are my favorite details – probably one of the most … Continue Reading
