Take A Few Steps Back

I recently was criticized for an outfit (my blue pleated skirt) I wore and I would like to take a quick moment to defend why I wear what I wear like the way I would defend my designs. I want to thank you for your comment and for being honest with me. I am not offended in any way but since the person had left an anonymous comment, there is no way I can respond to them personally. Since I want my readers to understand me, and in case others may question and wonder why I dress the way I do, I want to explain myself. First of all, the way I dress does not depict the things I design. This means that if I wear something, that does not mean that I will design something similar. The things I wear are sometimes an experimentation. I dress for various reasons. Most of the time, I experiment and when we experiment, we don't always get the best results. I also dress to express my mood or even the weather. Or I may not even have a reason and just wear things just for the heck of it! It is hard to please everyone. I do not regret the choices I've made with the things I decide to wear because I don't want that to limit me. Yes, I may have made bad choices but no, I do not regret them.

Thanks again to my friend, Uyen Dinh, for taking these photos. She's a great photographer!

It's been a long time since I've painted my nails and when I do have time, I want to spend some time making it pretty! I'm such a girly girl. I wanted to make floral prints on my nails since Spring is just around the corner!

This is going to be a long week before Spring break starts! What a bittersweet feeling. I hope this week goes by as fast as possible!

Gone With The Wind

I've been getting a lot of questions lately about who takes my photos. Usually, I just ask whoever is with me that day to take pictures for me. Most of my pictures are taken by my little sister. Today my roommate, Uyen, was with me and took these beautiful pictures. Today's shoot was so thrilling. Whenever you're taking photos next to the train tracks, always prepare for the train to come your way. This has happened to me almost every single time I've taken pictures near or on the train tracks without fail. So be careful if you decide to do the same.

Today's weather was so unpredictable. One moment it was pouring rain then another moment came the sun, then rain, then sun again. The wind definitely stayed constant; that's for sure. It was so hard to capture a picture without hair blowing into my face.

Raining Cats & Dogs

Since I'm tiny, I've always been worried to wear skirts that pass my knee. I feel like the skirt will eat me up. I braved my fears and finally went for it. These tights are actually very glittery but the pictures didn't presented that very well.

This vintage blouse was purchased from Design Archives. I was attracted to the laced collar. It's been raining so much lately and I'm ready to soak in the sun!
