3.1 Phillip Lim x Zara

 Happy Sunday! The summer season is coming to an end, but mother nature sure knows how to make an impression with the heat. To contrast with the heat, it's always best to wear light colors, other than black (I know I'm sad inside because I always wear black). However, I cannot escape from wearing boots!

My post consists of a grey wrap skirt from Zara and a sleeveless, fish printed, jeweled tank by Phillip Lim. The statement piece is the top itself which has bold spring/summer colors, but to elevate the tank from any ordinary tank, there are clear jewels around the neckline. Makes it easy without having to accessorize much. Another feature of the tank is a contrasting sheer fabric on the back, making it a bit sexy.

On a side note, I have become more of a fan of Phillip Lim's collection because of how amazing his clothes fits me. From having a more block style dress to a dress that gives you a fit and flare to show your physique. If you haven't checked out his F/W 14 collection, go check it out! Great fabric, great prints, and simplicity.

The Simpson Sundays

 Sundays for me are casual and relaxing. I always go back to dressing down for the weekends since I have to dress up all week for work. I love this simple tee I got from Uniqlo in NY. This Moma special edition tee from Uniqlo brings out my childhood and current favorite cartoon, The Simpsons. I paired it back to a high waisted, cuff shorts from Topshop.

For the rest of the pieces I'm wearing, my Tabitha Simmons ankle boots are finally broken into. After a week or two of painful toes....they are now comfortable to wear. My sunglasses are Oliver Peoples and are a round frame. They're super light weight and polarized.

Thanks for reading! Hopefully my future posts will be a bit more inspirational :)

Homage to Black & White

 

I'm back! It's definitely been a while but summer has been keeping me busy with work and interning. Plus...I went to New York for the first time ever which was rather exciting! City of lights and busy bodies. If you take a look at my instagram, you'll see all the places I've been and some of the foods I ate. 

My look for this post was definitely inspired by the city. Apart from the fact that I wear a lot of black lately, the rustic history of New York is definitely captured in my desire to post in black and white. The skirt by DKNY is like graffiti that I saw in areas around Soho. I also saw a painting at MOMA which is so similar to the print on this skirt. 

Staying true to my love of boots, these Tabitha Simmons boots is great for all occasions. It is perfect for both the LA/NY kind of girl. 

 

A side bit of info about me, when I was in high school I took photography for two years, and everything was captured on a film camera. I love how you can capture a photo in its true form, being black and white. I love taking photos in black and white, and now I get to be in front of the camera for a change :)
