Hello everyone!!! I hope you are all doing alright! I know Thursday is ridiculous for having my first post of the week >.<. But!!!! I recently got a job at Heirloom Vintage in little Tokyo and it is amazing! My good friend Olive hired me and my first day was Sunday and its such a cool job! I get to do all the online stuff, and I will be organizing the etsy shoots and such whist managing the store front. My boss, Masa, he is so nice too! He really trusts Olive’s and mine opinions and tastes which is really awesome. Don’t worry though! I’ll still be blogging a lot! Just was getting settled!

Also, I played some card games recently with friends, but the most vexing was defiantly poker… Whenever I played it in video games I never knew what I was doing and would only win by chance. I actually had to be taught the rules and it’s a really fun game! You have to be really good with math (which is not my strong suit) and have a good memory! There are actually a lot of proficient women poker players like stylish poker diva Liz Lieu . It’s really such an interesting “sport” or game I guess more so. But it really takes a lot of skill to be good at o.O . Here’s to more fun nights with drinks and card games!

I want to thank Banggood.com for this adorable sweater! The little pink flowers make any outfit so adorable! I love bubble skirts as well so I thought it was a great pairing! my aunt Michelle gave me this skirt about 4 years ago and it was really long. So I shortened it to make it more bubbly! I accidentally washed it one day and it’s wool so it shrunk ALOT so it’s almost an impossible size to wear or style with. I have a really small waist luckily, but thankfully it’s poofy for my big hips >.<

Anyways I hope you all have been having a great week! Some secret and exciting things are happening for me soon! So happy and excited!

A special thanks to Float Cafe Pasadena for letting us shoot in their amazing venue!

Hello everyone! I hope that you had a wonderful week so far! I can’t believe it’s Wednesday already! I’m so tired ( ̄ー ̄) , I spent all day at Joshua Tree yesterday on a shoot! (That’s the desert for those of you that don’t know) it’s always so so beautiful, but it was so so hot as well (>人<;) . I got to style the beautiful, Emily Ratajkowski from Ford Models and she was just so awesome! It was a really good day! (Can’t wait to show you all photos!)

Anyways, I wanted to share with you all my outfit for today! This is one of my favorite color combos! And I love to wear sweaters all year round! So it’s perfect with such a light weight skirt! I usually don’t wear long skirts but the panels make it really versatile I think! The funny thing about this sweater, I had wanted it forever, ever since I saw Lana del ray (despite my distaste for her) model it for H&M. I love angora sweaters so much! I have a lot of vintage ones, they are all blends but a high percent of angora which make them uber soft! I couldn’t find this sweater anywhere, it was sold out everywhere! And then I randomly found it at wasteland one day and I was so ecstatic! I bought it right away! I have to say, it’s uber cute, but it’s just not that soft. And I guess I should of expected that from H&M. It still makes for a really cute sweater though… Haha.

Also! Sylvia knew this super cute cafe, Float Cafe, in Pasadena so we decided to shoot there! It was soooo cute there! This alley way was all pastel! And the people who worked in the shops were so nice! I liked how it looked kind of European! The owner of Float was such a sweetheart, I was so happy to get some photos inside and around the cafe! If you all ever have the chance, you should check it out! Their root beer floats are to die for!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful week! And that it just gets better ! ☆〜(ゝ。∂)

Hello everyone!!! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I wanted to share with you all something I did about a month ago. I recently modeled for 8,000 nerves for LA Fashion week, and they showed at LAFC , so I was able to finally meet the multi talented, Kelsi Smith. She’s hilarious, charming, and of course has a great sense of style. She owns/directs 3 of her own companies (LA Fashion Council, Fash Mobs, Two Point Oh LA, and Style Smith ) as well as running her own fashion blog (Dedicated Follower of Fashion ). It was really awesome to meet her! I ended up going to her birthday party soon after and she asked me if I wanted to be a part of the asos marketplace shoot the following week. It went by so smoothly and all the other bloggers involved were so talented and sweet! I really enjoyed hanging out with everyone and seeing what amazing new designers are coming out with in Los Angeles! You should really take a look at more of the designers on the Asos Marketplace! I hope you all enjoy my post! Sorry the photos is low quality, I pulled it from the website >.>

Hey everyone! I haven’t done one of these in awhile, but since I’ve been in the market for some updated accessories, I stumbled upon Harrods array and it has made me want everything! As you may know, I love neutral tones and pinks a lot! And all of these designers pulled them off so well! There were a lot of cute Mulberry bags, but I didn’t want to spam you all with loads of photos of everything I wanted! I think some of my favorites were Chloé and Marc Jacobs handbags ! (Naturally) that pink bag is so perfect! What do you all think? What are your favorites from this list? Or even just for this season! I would love to know! Hope everyone is having an excellent weekend!

Good morning everyone. I hope that you are very happy and excited for the new day! I got a piece of bad news last night… One of my favorite teachers from high school had passed away. He was my freshman English teacher, and at the time I had a lot of turmoil in my home life. I got bullied constantly, I didn’t feel like I was smart, all I focused on were my crappy manga drawings. My teacher was one of the first people to push me, to talk to me like a normal human being, to make me realize I was capable and intelligent. He had a very interesting way of teaching, and I always had a retained that impression of him. He would ask a lot of questions, and listen. When I would draw in his class, when I was done, he would ask if he could have my drawing. I would relinquish it to him and later find it hanging on the classroom wall… (And he kept them on the wall even after I graduated.) He taught me so much about real life, in his indirect ways that I wouldn’t have learned until much later. Finding out about his death, makes me think about my own mortality, and the others around me that I care about. Or even just people that left an impression on me or taught me something about life… And I realize how significant every persons time in my life is… With that being said, RIP Mr. Frey .

Anyways! Sorry for that sad tidbit. I really haven’t had anyone pass away in my life that was remotely significant, so this effected me… I hope you all understand!

About my outfit, I received this adorable blouse from Ecugo.com and I really wanted to do something cutesy/adolescent with it! The print and color really reminded me of a toadstool! So I thought that was the perfect title for this post! (Because of course I am a princess hahaha ) ( ̄◇ ̄;) . I have had these shortalls for about 2 years? (Bought them in April of 2011) I got them at this thrift shop in Anaheim called savers, and they were really cheap! I love how cute they are! But I was just waiting for the opportune time to use my shortall collection (because I really have a collection hahaha) and the timing just couldn’t be any better! I love wearing these with one strap down or both down. (I love both straps too but I also like variety! ) these are a little small, the short part is suppose to poof out a little more but my legs are too big >.< ! Oh and I got these lovely socks from the 99¢ store!!!! I love Em so much! Of course my fabulous white Deandri tequila boots as well! Perfect kawaii outfit!

I hope I wasent too much of an earful today! (Or eyeful?) I really do hope your Thursday is going well!
