This was part of a citywide art initiative by Impermanence that used development sites as canvases. Very, very cool. For this project, 3 houses were painted on the corner of a residential block. Everything was painted a bright fluorescent pink. From the bushes, the floors, to the walls and the doors. I was lucky enough to see it in person and take some pictures before these houses were demolished for space to build new apartment buildings.
Pink has definitely been trending for the last year and a half. The color choice definitely makes a statement. It's like a real-life Barbie Dream House!

I have not posted in a while. Obviously, I have cut my hair a few months ago. But here are some pictures of me in the early summer when I still had incredibly long hair.
I stepped away from blogging for a while. Life got in the way? Although blogging was not really a priority for me but rather something I was interested in trying out.
But let me update you. Since early summer, I have:
- Cut my hair (obviously)
- Got a dog. Her name is Nala. You will all meet her soon.
- Tried to get back into fitness.
That about sums it up.
Los Angeles State Historic Park, what a beautiful place to be. When I used to live in Los Angeles or just about moved away, there used to be a cornfield here that was put up as an art installation. It's almost been a decade and since the cornfield. And since, there has been some events, a rave, and now it's a historic park. The lighting here is lovely and I think this park is a great one to bring a group of friends and family to for a picnic. An incredibly easy walk to or from Chinatown.
According to Google, the end of summer was the 22nd of September. I would just like to formally say goodbye to summer. Fall is here and I'm ready to embrace the cooler weather! See you all in knit sweaters and knee-high boots.
Happy 4th of July, everybody! I remember years ago, there was this trend where the American flag print was on a bunch of stuff like shirts and shorts. Now, I don't own anything with an American flag print so a red shirt and some light blue denim will have to do. Generally, this is actually how casual I dress.
California has been slowly getting hotter and hotter. Unfortunately, I turn really red when warmer weather comes around. Basically, I will look like a tomato for the rest of the summer. But this also means tons of ice cream, laying out at the beach, and lots of cold drinks!

I hope everyone has a wonderful Independence Day! Doing anything fun this year?
One of my go-to outfits is a pair of leggings, a loose top, a flannel around the waist, and a pair of black booties. As I have said before, I dress for comfort most days. On days where I am not meeting anyone in a professional business setting or doing anything work-related, I will usually opt for something that I probably would be willing to sleep in. This outfit is one example of such attire. The best part is, when it gets colder at night, the flannel is both stylish and functional.
The thing with wearing leggings, though, is that I do not actually like wearing leggings with short tops. Depending on where I buy leggings from, sometimes it is possible that the treacherous underwear line is yearning to pay the public a visit. In order to prevent this from happening, I make it a point to wrap a flannel shirt or a jacket over my waist on the off chance that I decide to wear leggings with a shorter top that does not cover my behind.
My first month as a Freshman in college (five years ago), I created a blog. My first blog post on my old blog was around the time when chelsea boots made an entrance in the fashion scene. Topshop came out with Chelsea boots and Acne Studios released their ever so classic Pistol boots. And me? Well, I fell in love. I couldn't afford to spend $500 on a pair of Acne boots at the time, but I searched high and low on the dot com to find similar pairs. I ended up buying a pair of ASOS boots and wore them until the heel was uneven. Then I ventured on to invest a sturdier pair from Opening Ceremony.
My roommate - bless her soul as I will always love her for this - always encouraged me to make YouTube videos or start a blog because I "have the closet for it". So I took multiple pictures of them strutting around my dorm room while my roommate sat on her bed spitting encouragement at me. But, guess what? These are those very same boots. Point being, investment pieces are called investments for a reason. They stick around.
