Hi LOVEs!!!

It's so gloomy and chilly today in Seattle. How's the weather where you are?

If it is as bad as my city, I hope today's post will brighten up your day because there are a lot of sweet & twirling moments! :)

Another day with my beloved

camel hat

outfit! Just like today's temperature, I still needed to cozy up in a sweater or layers, so I chose this super lovely bell sleeve cropped pullover to create a "spring natural" ensemble along with the hat. I am so glad I styled them with a flowy maxi skirt because it really complements the look, and it gives the look a nice feminine element.  I actually haven't worn this maxi skirt for a very long time because to be quite honest with you, I didn't know how to style it due to the length - I felt it's too long for my height. But it turned out really flattering! I love it when I can give life back to whatever piece has been hiding in my closet unworn. Since this skirt is extremely light and flowy, it could be fun to wear it again for other spring looks! Maybe with an off shoulder top or floral print tops! The options will go on and on!

Even though my boots are hidden by the skirt, these pink ankle boots added a spring hue. Wearing anything with pastel is such a great color selection add fresh vibe to the look.

As for hairstyle, I have a major obsession with this camel hat and side braid. It's super easy yet effortlessly chic and cute. Such a lovely go-to hair style right now!

    How would you wear naturals in spring? ♥

Hi LOVEs! Yay!!!! It's finally Friday!

I was more than happy to teame up with one of my favorite brands, MISSGUIDED, to style this adorable Mint Mesh Panel Strappy Midi Dress. I decided to style this dress in both daytime and night time ensembles. In today's post I will showcase the daytime outfit. I wanted to share how one dress can be transformed both easily yet dramatically! It's always good to have a versatile piece in your closet that gives you options to wear in multiple occasions!

First of all, you have no idea how much I am in love with this midi dress!! Due to my height, I am normally not a big fan of wearing a midi dress. I choose a dress that comes to at least 4 to 5 inches above my knees. However, thanks to its mesh panel details this dress can be a bit longer and still make me look fab! It creates an amazing illusion of both elongating my leg line and drawing attention up away from my legs WITHOUT putting a belt on or tucking up the dress! How stunning! I really love the mint color as well! It's not a vivid color, yet still a vitamin color and of-the-moment shade with impact that you should try this summer!

For my datime look, I wanted to go for something playful and fun that works for casual shopping, having a quick lunch, or grabbing some coffee at a cafe! To start, I decided to pair it with a wide brimmed hat and a light french braid, which is my quick casual go-to style! I added an all-time stylish accessory: a collar necklace that gives the look a bit of boldness and and also a single dangly earring (This style of accessorizing is having its moment in 2014! )
Although this dress makes me look tall as-is, I still wanted a bit extra height to balance the whole look out. Yes, these clear heeled platform sandals do the job. I can even walk in them the entire day!
I like that the wide brimmed hat has a boho vibe, and to keep the theme going I accessorized with a fringed bag and mirrored round sunnies! Fringed pieces are back this spring and summer as a notable trend and have been seen everywhere! So glad I have kept this bag for a few years now! :) In fashion, what goes around comes around!

I hope you like/love the DAY look. By the way, this dress is still available on MISSGUIDED!!

Stay tuned for the NIGHT look in this fun dress!

Finally, one quick note! I will be moving out in the next several days! I am super excited to live in a new area, but I want to apologize in advance for possibly me being MIA for a while!

Have an awesome Friday cuties! ♥

I believe every girl has a complex within herself, at least one. I have LOTS of them of course, and the first thing that always comes to my mind is having short legs and a long torso, yeah a typical Asian figure. I have wished to be born with a model figure, but it is what it is... You gotta embrace what you have, right? Yet, because of that, I always tend to wear a skirt to elongate my legs or wear platform heels to create an illusion of having longer legs. But what if I just want to throw on a simple pair of pants and comfy heels? Yes, that's all about today's post.

These NOWiSTYLE camouflage pants are just so HOT that it's impossible to resist wearing them! Almost all pants I have, I had to either cuff the hem inside or bring them to a tailor. However, these pants didn't need those fixed and so gave me an easy time. I was so pleased with how effortlessly they are to put on. I don't need to say about the print; I am really obsessed with it, and it makes any outfit subtle.

I love how my trench coat and ZARA heels are harmonized together, and most of the time I wear a trench coat, I love paring it with a fedora hat. So I picked this camel felt fedora and Charlotte Russe simple black infinity scarf to cozy up.
As the finishing touch, my lovely friend and hairstylist May did such a FABULOUS job on my hair. As I have striven to style an outfit from head to toe, I really appreciate this wow-braid hair because I don't think I could ever achieve this by myself! She has also been too awesome as my personal hair colorist and never fails to blow me away with the beautiful color she does on my hair at a completely easy-on-the-purse deal! If you live in Seattle and need some new, fresh, beautiful hair color, I highly recommend to shoot a private message to her on facebook to book an appointment! You will love her job as much as I do!!!! :) 

Thank you so much for stopping by! 

Have a lovely day ♥

Fall Back to Punk Tartan

WATCH: ALDO 

---------------------------------------------------------

In my previous post, I mentioned that I am quite obsessed with pencil skirts lately for so many reasons. They elongate your legs, are sophisticated, and add a chic vibe to your look. With that, I would like to introduce my latest pencil skirt ensemble, which qualifies as my favorite fall look so far.

Tartan prints are now quite ubiquitous and I really adore this big fall trend! Thus, I was very pleased when I found this beautiful, chic, polished tartan skirt from ASOS. There are plenty of ways to rock this lovely tartan skirt, and I decided to go for a combination of punk and chic vibe together. I received this simple but eye-catchy BALLER tank from Charlotte Russe in my most recent care package from them. THANK YOU CR TEAM! The tank really add the punk to my outfit, and is really cool! Wearing a beanie tops off this fall look, I mean, what is fall without a beanie, right!? I really love this yellow beanie from Target, which I got for around $5!!!! What a deal! Mather Nature paints with a bright palette of red and yellow as she shifts the seasons, and so this beanie's bright color completes the look that blends right in!

Fall can be a little chilly, and I believe that a moto biker jacket is such a great piece to add to the the rocker/punk look.  The red lipstick elevates the look even more. Still, I wanted to retain chic and polished side, so I balanced things out with a fur bag, pointed platform high heels and crystal necklace. These items also add the right dose of femininity, and my side braid hair provides a touch of playfulness.


I hope you like/love my tartan look with a punk taste!
How would you wear a tartan print?
