No. 6 Fall '15

Rarely do I find myself with an intensely strong impulse to save images of fashion week collections, but No. 6 is an exception. Every piece speaks to me as well as the photography. The model, the lighting, the outfits, the locations all bring to mind a heroine of a French movie, in which you would follow her adventures in the city all the way to the countryside. She reads, takes film photos, appreciate arts in all form. She is what I would imagine Alaska (of Looking For Alaska) in her 20s to be. 

Ideé Fixe: Sneakers with Everything

After clicking through a ton of street style looks for the past few days, my infatuation towards sneakers in replacement of boots and heels have escalated to a whole new height. They look so effortless yet casual. I don't think sneakers necessarily downplay a look, instead they elevate it to a refreshing urban look. Not only do they go well with a lot of outfits, they are also extremely practical. Walking around San Francisco in a midi dress with my pair of white Nikes and my ankle grazing coat feels amazing. A post on how to incorporate sneakers into your everyday wear will be up soon.

Till then,
Be inspired.

Tough Luck

It's 1:47 am and I'm having pre-finals anxiety. This isn't something new, thus I know the only way to get rid of it is to sit down and study till I feel good about myself and can actually fall asleep. (Yes, I've tried to make a list to ease my mind but that rarely works.)

Pre-finals jitters are the worst. I worry about whether I have enough time to cover everything, which most often than not is impossible because my mind's version of everything is covering the entire syllabus twice with notes and by reading the textbook from cover to cover, twice. Over the years, one would have thought that being able to pull through so many finals would help ease the mind, but that's not the case. I still worry that I'll be unprepared. I tell myself that I've already been accepted into a university but then again, I wanna ace my courses because I know I can and I want to. It's as simple as that. Once finals is over and I can breathe again, I will look back and think 'That wasn't so bad.'

But right now, anxiety will constantly be nagging me in the back of my mind as I watch Community in bed or sit down to read Attachments.

On a lighter note, I can't stop thinking about this loft in Portland. You can read the post here but first, scroll down and be amazed. The desire to live in a loft is stronger than ever, plus I have a lot more ideas to work with right now. Finances psh, I'll let future me worry about that. A girl can always dream.

Smile Like You Mean It

I know I've been neglecting this blog, but I have some future posts in mind that will be put into action by next week. So stay tuned.

Anyway, in preparation, for The Killers tomorrow, I've compiled my favourite songs of theirs into one playlist and have included some outfit inspiration if you're heading for their concert tomorrow. I can't wait to see them live.

Leaning towards high waist bottoms, comfortable shoes (covered to avoid people trampling on your toes) and crop tops. We'll see how it goes. 

Till then,

Have a wicked weekend!
