Asaksua

American Apparel Romper // Superga Shoes // Madewell Tote // H&M Hat // Anthropologie Necklace // Ray Ban Sunnies

My second day in Tokyo was spent touring Asaksua to see the Sensoji Buddhist temple and the tallest tower in the city, Tokyo Skytree. It was the most touristy day filled with several stops and activities.

 I knew I had to be comfortable in the insane humidity and crowds, so I chose this American Apparel romper, my Supergas, and topped it off with a straw hat. 

I would suggest taking half a day to go to Tokyo Skytree to see the breathtaking 360 degree view of the city... then quickly see Sensoji. The temple was very grand and beautiful, but very crowded and chaotic. I much prefer the calmer secluded temples in Kyoto, nevertheless this was still a beautiful sight. 

Stay tuned for more Japan posts to come.

Back To Basics

Chanel Classic Mini Flap // We The Free Top // Vintage Denim // Madewell Sandals // Ray Ban Sunnies // Anthropologie Necklace //

Quick little outfit post for you all. My close friend is visiting me for a week, which means I have a minion to take photos for my outfit posts.

We just had a chill shopping day so I chose some basics (white top and denim shorts) and layered on the gold accessories as I like to do. My style is so boring lately, but I'm really enjoying the plain normcore/ laid-back style. Literally, I wear a white shirt and denim everyday... Maybe I'll try to switch it up for you guys.

I'm finally a high school graduate. I feel like I've been talking about it forever, but yes. It's finally done and over with. 

Now it's time to fully enjoy summer vacation.

Senior Prom

One by Contrarian Dress // Anthropologie Belt and Bracelet // Christian Louboutin Heels

This past weekend was my Senior Prom. School's going by so quickly that I wasn't really anticipating and anxiously awaiting it like I did last year. However, that doesn't mean I didn't have an amazing time. 

The theme was 007 Casino Royale so I chose this silk dress by One by Contrarian. This dress fits extremely small and I had a bit of a fiasco with the tailor-- I had to order it two sizes bigger than my normal size. In the end I'm very glad I chose this dress because the silver silk is so eye catching. To make it a bit more interesting I added a gold beaded belt and gold accessories. Of course I finished it off with my Christian Louboutins and a spray tan to complete the look.

I've never worn a long formal dress in my life, so it was a new experience. Sadly I don't think I will have many opportunities in the future to wear such a fancy dress, but I think the cut and look of it will stay in style for many years to come. 

Do you have any formal events coming up? 

All White On The Beach

 

The first week of the new year I'm currently spending down in South Beach. My grandparents live close by so it's an easy destination for my family. Sadly, the weather hasn't been ideal for Miami, but it is way better than the 23 degree weather at home.

The grey weather does compliment my all-white ensemble perfectly, if I do say so myself. In the first picture my pose is very Chiara Ferragni  isn't it?

I hope your first week of the year is going well. Stay tuned, yet again, for my new year's resolution post. I have come up with my resolution, but I need to think about how I'm going to frame it in a post.

Merry Late Christmas

 It's a bit late, but this was my Christmas Eve dinner outfit. My family and I went out to a delicious Lebanese restaurant and then opened gifts by the tree. I had a great Christmas and I hope you did too.

 If you notice a difference the the quality it is because it's on my film camera. I bought it for a few dollars at a thrift store, it worked instantly with a fresh battery and some film. 

I'm really getting into experimenting with the different types of photography since I'm not the best at digital photography. Film photography adds a really cool effect that no instagram filter can match. Carefully planning out each picture (because you have limited snaps) has sparked creativity in me and make me really think about each thing I take a picture of. Also, the anticipation of waiting the see how the pictures turned out is really exciting. 

Stay tuned for a NYE post which will be coming up in January.

Snow Day

Again, I feel horrible about neglecting you all recently. It's only been a week, but I know that's a long time in the blog world. I was sick the majority of my absence. When I say sick, I mean it. I don't need to go into detail, but I'm currently on two sets of antibiotics..

Good thing is I'm at the end of my sickness and I'm only plagued with an occasional, ugly sounding cough and the sniffles. With the bad luck I've been having, I should probably get my flu shot ASAP.

I got the day off from school due to the fast falling snow that coated the ground quickly this morning. It was the perfect back-drop for showing you all my new menswear inspired coat from J.Crew.

 On top of this day off I have a job interview. I think this outfit is perfect for interviewing because it is smart looking with the menswear coat, yet still playful with the stacked bracelets and layered necklaces.

What's the weather like where you live?
