bare naked

Miu Miu's Fall 2009 campaign is genius! Mert & Marcus' bare-naked colors and the minimalist
effect perfectly showcase miuccia's must-have fall/winter clothes and accessories.


Here's my extremely rough interpretation.
vintage crop top, a. mcqueen for target skirt, vintage clutch, jessica simpson wedges (found them for $1!!!)

Found this on the Pipeline. SO BADASS. I want one and I want to learn how to ride it. Will be featured on the upcoming W issue.

MOD

How do you like my a.wang's model-off-duty interpretation? Oh don't make me laugh.

clutter me beautiful

I can be quite the ratpacker. I can't seem to throw away the too-small t-shirts with autographs of all my sixth grade classmates or random hello kitty items I made my mom buy every time we passed the Sanrio store at the mall. All those sentimental feelings are tucked away some place somewhere in my house. They're waiting to be thoughtfully placed in some awesome future apartment I'll have, which will be decorated in that "beautiful mess" type of style. I love organized clutter. It's like the happy compromise between the neat freak in me and the actual chaos of life. Here are some inspirations for my future apartment.... uhhh... .. I mean mansion/penthouse.
my magazine collection WILL look like hers.
I want my closet to be as big as Lisa Mayock's of Vena Cava.
I want my belts and jewelery to be organized in a nook just like hers except around an antique birdcage instead.
And I want my shelves color coded. I want I want I want.
Here's a tidbit of my shoes. I'll try to post outfit pics soon, just need to find the time!

Just chillaxin tonight with some honey green tea, curryhouse dinner, V and RUSSH (some newly found zines that I love).

Looking forward to the US movie releases for The September Issue by RJ Cutler and Coco Avant Chanel featuring Audrey Tatou!

chill pill


seriously, nothing beats a beach day afternoon especially
when there's no one there to bother you.

trying to channel the vintage beach look in: target bikini top

must-finds to complete my summer:
a.wang brenda bag (black or white)
vintage ray-ban clubmaster sunglasses


anja girl

this girl is nothing less than perfect. omgosh just look at that rockin body!
anja rubik has to be my favorite model by far.
her ad campaigns are so over-the-edge and so fun at the same time.
she can definitely-no-doubt-about-it pull off that short hair.
sigh...now if my legs could just extend about six inches longer maybe we could be friends.








and this is only a taste of anja's modeling perfection.

made in china











just came back from the motherland (china) with an assortment of good shopping and a little extra weight from all the good food. still thinking of all the sweet buns and the savory street food. i've always thought the best way to travel is to do it on your own. no tour guides, no docents, just some good googling will get you where you need to go.

traveling in: AA tulip skirt, aldo shoes, vintage snakeskin crossbody bag, grandma's belt, hawaiian pareo used as scarf
