Before Summer Expires

Saturday, September 15, 2012

Lately I am so happy that the weather in Seattle is stunningly beautiful and awesome. It makes me feel as if summer is still going on, which is good esp for Seattleite!! So my beloved best friend and I took an advantage of it to walk around her house in the Capital Hill area. We didn't nothing special, just walking and chilling, enjoying the view. Yet it was really refreshing, and everything there produces very modernistic and historical atmosphere that I totally LOVE in spite of my first time visiting. I was very impressed by how wonderful and cute all the buildings and houses look on the outside. I shoulda taken more pics so I could have shown you the beautiful view of Capital Hill. Right now I am planning to move out from my current place and am now REALLY thinking about moving in around this area lol

Talking about my look I am wearing the floral kimono top is one of my favorite pieces I've got this summer, and to be honest this was my second time to wear it. haha I know I have TONS of clothes! That's why I wanted to rock the top before summer ends! Also 'DUO-TONE' is one of the coolest trends this autumn/winter , so I put it together with my DUO-TONE look, adding up BURGUNDY (also one of the trends!) fedora. I can't wait to wear more of the fall looks and to share them with my lovely readers!!!

Hope you guys will enjoy your weekends!! :)

Boyfriend Jacket X Leopard Booties

Tuesday, September 11, 2012

BLAZER, TOP: Forever 21 | SHORTS: Another Edition (Japanese Brand) | LEOPARD BOOTIES: ASOS | SUNNIES, EARRINGS: Urban Outfitters | BRACELETS, RINGS: H&M, F21, ASOS, Charlotte Russe

This is one of my work outfits and I completely love it because it has a feeling of both coolness and sexiness but not too much. Also I am in love with two things, which is the title of this post, BOYFRIEND JACKET & LEOPARD BOOTIES. Since I am petite and my shoulder is narrow as well as sloping, I always have a trouble finding an oversized jacket that fits me well. Not only about the fitting, I really adore its color, retro orange. I've seen other colors like red, blue, yellow, and pink yet orange. Those leopard booties are bomb! Leopard prints are always so stylish and never be out of style/fashion. When I found them at ASOS, I saw the sign "SOLD OUT", but then I came back a while after, the sign was gone!!! I was too excited (How couldn't I? lol ) because it seemed like I was the LAST one who was able to purchase the pair. One problem of the shoes,though, is I can't wear them for a long time since their heels are quite high although I get used to it... However if I carry flats there is no problem :) The fall boots I want to own for myself is SNAKESKIN boots or heels (BOOTS here, here or here HEELS here) ! Hope I am a good hunter to find them sooner!!!!!

In the Sunday Pacific NW Magazine...

Tuesday, August 28, 2012

Hi LOVEly readers!

I am deeply sorry for not being able to update my blog almost for a month... I've had to take care of many personal things. BUT! I am back now :)

Today I have very exciting and memorable news to share with you.

As you already saw the pictures above I am so honored to have the opportunity to be in one of the Seattle magazine. Sadly it's not about me ( but someday for sure!), it's about an interview of my boss at work regarding fashion, which carried on a few months ago. At the interview I modeled one of a young designer's gowns.

I really wouldn't expect that the pictures the photographer took would be shown that big and not even on the cover and on a two-page spread.

As well as the magazine, if you go to Pacific NW Magazine Facebook Page those photos are selected as their profile and cover photos.
How couldn't I be more happier when I found that out?

I still can't believe that I am there. However I am super pleased all my effort I've made is paying of little by little. This great opportunity definitely gave me more confidence and strongly convinced me of this:

"if you don't give up, you can surely make everything happen, no matter how long it will take"

My dream is to be a..

☆JAPANESE PETITE FASHIONISTA IN THE US☆

I don't know how long it will take me to reach this point, but I would like to hope it won't take a long time and hopefully next time I am in any magazine, it features my fashion :) Until then I will keep doing my best !!!!!!!
