I know that my most recent posts are all about 2015 Spring/Summer collection previews in Tokyo, but I have one more! This was actually a party – the Desigual 2015 SS Collection preview party that took place in Daikanyama, one of the more stylish areas in Tokyo. I’ve known the brand Desigual growing up in … Continue Reading
 This past weekend, I had the pleasure of meeting Japanese-Filipino blogger Kiko Cagayat. We met through Instagram and Lookbook.nu, and after a little mix-up of Starbucks locations in Shinjuku (trust me, there are too many near one station), we finally had a nice chat over coffee. Kiko is so friendly and polite, and has … Continue Reading
This weekend, I was invited to try out a new esthetic salon in Kitaurawa called Viage, which is conveniently near my home. It was actually my first time to ever visit a beauty salon in Japan, so I was very excited for this opportunity. The owner, Ms. Sasaki, did an amazing 60-min facial for me, … 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
 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

This was my second time stopping by the festival, and it was so nice to … Continue Reading
 I spent the day with my mom at the newly reformed Tokyo Station, shopping around at Kitte, the department store right across and eating at a Kaiten sushi restaurant there. We then headed over to Ginza to do some more shopping and karaoke. Since I knew we would be walking the whole afternoon, I … Continue Reading
I haven’t been able to post anything new for a week with my mom visiting Japan and whatnot. I’m so happy to finally spend time with her here in Japan during her short stay. I asked my friend Lisa from Paint with Stars if she could do a mother-daughter photo shoot for us, so we … Continue Reading
   A couple weeks ago, I met up with Saq and his friend for a quick photo shoot in the busy streets of Ginza on a Friday afternoon. He was traveling to Tokyo for work, but wanted to do some photo shoots for fun as well. We didn’t have too much time to … Continue Reading
From a much-awaited lunch break with my friend Alisa. We ate outside of J.S. Burger in Shibuya, and enjoyed a veggie burger with avocado and a BLT breakfast plate. I love this place because it comes with unlimited soup and salad bar. Healthy and satisfying.
