Nordstrom BP Fashion Board interview

So I figured I'd wear black for the interview....When I got there, it turns out most people were in nautical or floral prints. I hope I stood out in a good [not anti-social, morbid] way. xD;

It's raining again

Anyways. Did I ever say that I hate the rain? Well, I kind of do, but driving in the rain is awesomeeee :)


Oh wow I wish I could look as skinny like the first picture in all my pictures xD

This week's spring break and I hope it'll be productive :) and fun and relaxing~

Remember what it was to be me

Today's outfit :) Thanks to Jenn for the tree photo. I realize I really like my garage wall. It makes a nice blank space to photograph off of. Too bad you can't really see the necklace :x It's nice, the cord isn't chain, so it doesn't make your skin smell bad ^^. Today it rained.

Rubber bands

are painful. Anyways, this past Saturday I finally got some time to go to a clothes swap! is run by a wonderful lady named Tina. :) Anyways, I took home a couple of things, including this sparkley blue sweater, amongst some other items that will turn up in pictures later, weather appropriately.


thanks Sami for taking pictures!! :)

Anyways I have a lot of things to do..an decide...One and a half more weeks until Spring Break! Isn't that excitingg~ I really need a huge chunk of time to sew for fashion show, haha. Yepp...now on to more productive things...

Puddles Day!

Hey!
Today the weather started out just pure windy. Then around lunch time, it was like whoosh and all the clouds blew in and it started raining cats and dogs. I was pretty lucky--decided to wear boots and tights, so I didn't stay wet for long. My friend gave us a ride home, but not before we got wet ^^v Here's a puddle in our school parking lot. Guess how deep it is :3

Here's my outfit, and just to say, while it isn't top quality, this skirt is really fantastic, and it was only 9.99! :) It's awesome because it doesn't blow around in the wind~

On a random ending point, I tend to put on a lot of lip balm when it's windy. What you guys do when it's windy?

中國新年快樂

Hey!
Happy Chinese New Years & Valentine's Day everyone ^^ Anyways, here's today's outfit, it's geared towards CNY, obviously, because of the bright colors and red/pink~ Honesly I didn't really think about how much red stands out, until I got to church and the one other person wearing red immediately caught my eye. It really is a dang eye catching color, especially if everyone else is wearing grey or black.

And yes, my socks are meant to be mismatched. Ever since I started buying Costco socks, I've made an effort not to wear the same colored low-cut socks; it's more fun this way :)

Waking up 15 minutes before I have to get to class

Hey!
So...today I'm just wearing one of my dad's button down shirts. I actually really like it. Shame there's no picture :x Well, I'm sure it'll come up again sometime ^^. Anyways, I was thinking about shoes, because the media somehow always talks about neutral colored heels, or wedges. And I think wedges are a good way to add some inches without feeling like you want to cut off your feet.

Also, I remember there was this girl at school last year...she had this pair of skin-colored pumps, and whenever she wore them, she looked super tall. I mean, it's not like she was super tall to begin with, probably my height, around 5'7", but those pumps...Anyways, here are some potentials, especially the pair from Payless...obviously I can't afford $400 shoes right now :/ In time...:)

Neutral Wedges by roxanne2332233 featuring Phi boots

Items in this set:
Zipped leather ankle boots, $825
Tapeet by Vicini Y95062 (Nappa Funmo) - Wedges, $395
Rachel Pally black jersey tie front dress, Bluefly.com, $130
Predictions - Heart Sandal - Payless Shoes, $20

Aren't those booties sick? I think they're so simple and chic, but have such a badass feel :D

A hint of sky

Hey!
This week has been kind of tiring. And when I'm tired, I tend to eat a lot. It's a bad habit I'm sure we all have, and that we try to get rid of. After sleeping more on Tuesday night, I realized that sleep really is insanely important-- not only energy-wise, but also positivity. I felt tons better on Wednesday than I did on Tuesday.
Then I noticed something else.
I had gotten in the habit of saying "I'm tired." ...what a terrible habit, huh? So, I've decided to make a conscious effort on not saying "I'm tired." when I'm really not. :)

Today was a sunny day with bouts of cloud, which made super cool pictures, I think. The sky really is wonderful-- it's so random but fantastic at the same time. Just looking at all the different shapes and textures make me feel energetic. Plus the lighting was nice for some self-picture-taking...haha. I was so tempted to just stand there, except they were moving, and I had to get a good picture. Anyways, here's what I wore, and the fabulous white clouds!

Anyhow, I should go to sleep, as to not give myself a reason to keep complaining "I'm tired I'm tired!".
Do you have a bad habit that you want to get rid of?

Bright Yellow

Hey! Today is Saturday, and I went to watercolour class. Although I was super tired, and really screwed up the flower I was painting, it was really relaxing. Art does that.

Yay! I like my earrings :) They're from Taiwan and I don't wear them often, but :)
Anyways, I wore this windbreaker because my favorite dark blue jacket was in the wash. For some reason, dark blue jackets are really comforting to me. I wear mine until they literally have holes in them, and then I have to go on a hunt to find the next perfect blue jacket. They're not expensive-- my most recent one is from Aeropostale. However if the cut is right for you, I find that it can go along with 95% of your outfits. The other 5% is formalwear, which I don't often get to wear. Is there a wardrobe staple you just have to have? What is it? :)

Umbrella!

Hey have you played the umbrella game? If not, I won't ruin it for you. Anyways, I've decided to restart this blog. Give it a new beginning, persay. I will try to write more...wide-angled stuff, whether about art, fashion, photography, or something interesting and helpful.

It was a cloudy day, with enough lighting to make the puddles reflect. It was a day that gave off a nostalgic mood. As I walked past a puddle I was just thinking that I wanted to take a picture. Hope that looks like a painting, I think it does. The umbrella was given to me by my grandmother and I really like it because it's a pastel pink, and really big and keeps me dry.

Do you have a cherished rainey day item?
