Wrap Around

Yigal Azrouel Jacket / Uniqlo Flannel turned skirt / Cynthia Vincent perforated wedges / A wang bag

The weather is getting colder, and I'm getting more excited... 

Why?

Because... Brace yourselves, Winter is coming. And that means everything I hold near and dear to me will also be coming: Birthday, Holidays, Days off, SNOW~

I absolutely Love Love Love with 3 capital Ls, Winter. The chill just wakes me up, and the stillness of snow falling just brings tears to my eyes.

Seriously! This is no joke. I was born in to Winter and I cannot wait to feel those feelings again. 

But be still my heart for it is still Fall. And transitional weather styling has always been a pain in the butt because I don't want to sweat through my shirt in the afternoon and turn into a popsicle at night.  

So that's why I love that wrapping a button up around your waist is not a "uncool" thing anymore. It's just so easy and carefree. And honestly, I Don't Care because I'm just waiting for Fall to be over so it can be Winter again.

What I Wore to NYFW Yigal.

Unlike the natural disaster that hindered my look for the Marc Jacobs show, I was actually prepared for this one...

I am wearing: 

Vintage black cardigan / Helmut Lang dress / A Wang mini rocco bag / Rag & Bone Durham boot

Pose at the Park

Bah.. Today was unbelievably windy and wearing loose clothes didn't help. Usually I love me some cold weather, but this year I really can't stand it anymore. 

Levi's jean jacket thrifted, Yigal Azrouel men's sweater, J brand jeans, American Apparel bag, 80%20 wedges

I love my AA bag, its insanely functional. I feel like freaking Mary Poppins with this bag~ And the cat obviously makes it even more perfect. 

No food pics this time. What to do.

Sunset

I feel like all my pictures are taken during the sunset. 

I never wake up early enough for sunrise, so sunset's the next best thing. 

BCBGmaxazaria jacket, Pixie Market stud dress, Vintage bag, TUK London Creepers, H&M socks

We seem to be at the right place at the right time and caught the sun-setting over Citi Field.

As for food, we went to Flushing and ate a little snack called 甜不辣(tian bu la). Which literally means sweet not spicy. But basically it is just delicious fried fishcake. 

Listen to this totally bounce-able track from Dale Earnhardt Jr Jr. 

If You Didn't See Me ( Then You Weren't on the Dance Floor)

Yay for long song titles.

Cupcakes and polka dots

T'was another hard day out working. Walked around Soho and shot some footage. And most importantly decided to spontaneously get cupcakes after seeing everyone going in and out of this cupcake shop. 

 

Vintage Levi's jean jacket, polka dot sweater, h&m circle skirt, Jeffrey Campbell spiked litas. 

My buddy and I lounged on the front steps of Philip Lim's store, while trying to get some shots, and I started noticing everyone going in to the same cupcake store - Georgetown Cupcake. So it was only natural that I try it out. 

Flowers~

I love me some flowers. They are cute, smells nice, and comes in all sorts of colors. 

They are also very delicate, which is always a good quality to have. 

Here are some flowers from the Macy's flower show. And my outfit. 

And Yummy Dim Sum of course.

Came back after work exhausted. Took these shots quickly outside before darkness sank in.

And of course the obligatory food pic. 

Yayy! I finally purchased my new lens. Expect lots of pretty pictures, especially of food. meow.

After buying the camera, I settled down and ate some yummy pho, and indulged afterwards with some even yummier bubble tea - my one true love.

Sometimes I feel like the harder it is to get something, the more you will want it and appreciate it. 

I trekked all the way to B&H to buy a camera lens that I've been saving up for. But ALAS, it was closed because of Passover. I should have known...

American Apparel Scarf, Topshop headband, Cut25 jacket, T by Alexander Wang sweatshirt, Uniqlo flannel, BCBG leather pants(similar), Alexander Wang Mini Rocco bag, Urban Outfitters shoes. 

After searching everywhere around the city for my beloved lens, I realized sometimes, you just have to give in... and wait.

The Cloisters

Okay.. This happened about 6 months ago...

But that won't stop me from posting it now.

Better late than never right?

H&M pearl dress / UNIQLO shawl / Paco Herrero Shoes

This week has been extremely hectic. I seem to have lost my head somewhere... With all this moving around I felt like I couldn't function normally. And naturally.. something terrible happened. 

After going out on Long Island, I lost my camera on the train, and everything after that was just a complete mess. I kept on losing and forgetting things left and right. My mind just wasn't in the right place for some reason. 

But thankfully, a few days after that incident, I got a call saying that they have my camera at the lost and found, and I can go and get it. Even so... the thought of losing something to valuable, not just monetarily but also of sentimental value was something that I couldn't handle. 

This incident definitely was a huge experience for me and I don't want this to sound like a reflective essay, but I really want to stop being so forgetful... 

Anyhow. because of all this, I haven't been posting, on here, lookbook, nor tumblr. But here I am again. I have to return.

bolero: cheap monday / dress: random korean store / boots: UO / clutch: thrift

I made my mommy buy this dress for me when we went out shopping around town. Don't worry.. it was inexpensive, but it feels lovely. This weekend was beautiful out but I can't turn away from an all black outfit.

Star Wars tee / Vintage black cardi / Vintage Levi cut-offs / Dr. Martens / Vintage suede clutch 

I have nothing to say about this~

oh yes. I love these peach frilly socks.

turn back~

During the weekend, Chester and I went around the city for a good night out after all his final troubles. 

We passed by the High Line and decided to take some pictures and rest.~

We didn't really walk the High Line. It was pretty crowded... Probably because the weather was pretty.

We had yummy Peruvian roasted chicken and a really tasty sangria that I was unable to finish by myself.

 

h&m dress / old navy sweater / thrifted purse

I don't know how Chester feels about me posting his pictures on the internet. Let me ask for permission first. ~

'till next time.
