t-minus an #ootd

Counting the last couple days of my work contract, the days till Kate's Birthday, for school to start, for August to end and Fall to begin. Trying to savor the last of the summer nights.
Enjoy these sassy photos of me on a rooftop. I should really just invest in a camera.

New tune I'm digging. This and Frank Ocean (duh). All the Frank Ocean

Spotted an #ootd

Recently my life has turned into train rides to and from the city and working by the beach. This is my official last summer break, crazy to realize. I'm so excited to keep working during my final year. Also excited that Kate is back from her travels, that it's going to be sweater weather next month and that my music list has been bumpin' lately.

Just for taste:

P.S. I thrifted a black velvet sweater today - stoked about it.

fight or flight an #ootd

Photoshoots, graduations, sunshine, birthdays, meaningless walks, iced vanilla lattes, driving around, meeting up, inspiration, books, podcasts, design - That's been my May and it's going to change for June because somebody (believe it or not) finally got a job. *cheers*

On another note..

Picking battles, fight or flight? What happens when your gut feeling goes away.

Here's very dreamy summer tune for you :)

i t s f i n e an #ootd

These days, the best kinds of days are the ones that are completely unplanned. Vanilla lattes and walks downtown make me feel like this is the right way to start summer. Seeing as I'm nothing but broke right now I think it's time for me to hone in on my goals. I've got my manifestation list for the summer in one hand and a really sick playlist on my iPhone in the other.

The blog needed a little color, I wonder how many times these walls have been painted on. 

And on that note I leave you with this track:

Coffee, Tacos and May

I've been absent for a month or so, but I've got some solid reasons why I've not posted, I promise.

As my Spring semester at Uni ended I celebrated my older friends graduations. I must admit, I've gone out dancing one too many times in the month of April, I was so busy having fun and truly living in the moment, watching all the people I admire and look up to graduate from uni - I got so inspired. I've been collecting images, and color references, and name ideas that will all to go towards my final thesis collection which I begin developing in the Fall.

Today though was a great little day. I had a conversation about the purpose of design and creation over coffee, watched The First Monday In May and relived walking around the exhibition last May (China: Through The Looking Glass AND I would pay to watch it again), and ate some delicious tacos. It's days like this that I really appreciate spending one on one time with friends.  

2 more things, I'm obsessed with VIEWS, Drake is bae. I also made a pretty bomb playlist and you should have a listen:

Buro Vanilla Latte is a yes, so is POOL.

Cotrolla - Feel No Ways - Child's Play , on repeat

Memories of New York, I would do anything to go back this Summer...

Tacofino has changed my life, thank you Sisi 

Over Exposed with a side of Kate an #ootd

There was still some Summer vibes in the air today but I couldn't resist getting my new shawl from Aritzia out. Photos are high on the exposure scale, but don't worry, I'm teaching myself Photoshop and hopefully getting a fancy camera soon.

Where's the camera, an #ootd

So, I'm back from New York/Venice and I have a potential job lined up for the summer if I can ace the interview. I don't even remember the last time I had a job interview, it's been that long. Anyhow, an update of my field school trip should be coming sooner rather then later..*Fingers crossed*

And also this sunshine is great but I'm that weird person who misses the rain when the sun is out and wants the sun when it's raining. Can't win this game of life.

Kimoh-no an #ootd

Top, Macy's; Kimono, XXI; Jeans, Zara; Shoes, Nike

Ever since I bought these Nike's in NYC I've been trying to incorporate them into my wardrobe more. Not only do they give me a break from my Forever 21 booties that I wear in almost every other OOTD I do but they are comfy and still give me maybe an inch more of height.

Really quickly this outfit was put together. I have jeans for days so I brought out my Zara Basic ones and paired it with a lacy black tank and my XXI kimono.

Took a stroll down to the park with Ang, we took ootd's obvs. I try.
