Hi LOVEs!!

I hope you had a very productive week and are so ready to kick off a fun weekend!

My week was super hectic, which is why I am writing this right now at 10pm! haha

I am so thrilled to share with you a comfy piece that I received from

UNIQLO

recently. To be honest with you, I really had no idea how I was going to style

this mint polo

when I received it because for me, polo shirts are something that I wear for the purpose of  playing sports! So I had to stand in front of the mirror for a while, wearing this polo to come up with some styling inspiration. Then, I came to the realization that I should go with a basic and casual look that could be worn as a day-to-day outfit! Styling it with a pair of denim pants seemed like the the right choice! Even though this is a casual look, I decided to wear platform sandals add a touch of sophistication and chicness to the look. Also, adding some height manages to balance it out (as always!!) You can definitely switch them out for to flats or sneakers!!

On top of the playful mint color,

this polo

is super lightweight and I love its fabric that features a breathable pique that dries out very quickly. On the day of shooting, it was really sunny. I was slowly sweating while searching for a location to shoot, but I was very comfortable in this polo shirt! As you may have noticed, I like to style it by turning up the collar. Some people don't like it, but I think it's a good way to not look frumpy! Even better looking with a big bun hairstyle if you have a long hair!

The price is super wallet-friendly, and

there are selections of 12 fun colors

including basic colors like white, gray and black! It's a perfect every day piece for the warming weather!

Sweet dreams! Oyasuminasai!

Hi LOVEs!!!!
I am deeply sorry for not being able to update the blog for 2 weeks!! I finally finished up everything associated with my move, and you know what? I loooooove my new place!!!! I can't wait to explore the new things around my new house! I found out that it gets me even closer to Alki Beach, which is one of my favorite places in Seattle! In summer, it's amazing to come home at the end of your day and spend your evening along the shore, felling touched by the speechless sunset with the smell of the sea! Such a great way to end of you day!

I hope you remember that I teamed up with an amazing apparel brand, MISSGUIDED to showcase a few items and to create both day and night looks with these items. Now it's time to share the night look with you guys! If you haven't seen the first day look, you can check it from HERE :)
When I was choosing this mint dress for this project, I was sort of concerned. I figure it would be no problem to style this dress to achieve a dress- down ensemble. Yet, I couldn't come up with how I was going to wear it for a classy night out because of the mint color. However, such anxiety immediately disappeared when it arrived and I tried it on. It was very easy for me to pull off a successful night look because the dress itself is just gorgeous!!!! This isn't the only mint dress; there are several different mint dresses on MISSGUIDED! I chose this one because I am obsessed with anything that comes with mesh details, since they are enjoying their moment in the spotlight right now!

What I did to create the night look wearing this pastel color midi dress was I slightly curled my hair, paired with pink gold metallic platforms also from MISSGUIDED, added a red lipstick, and accessorized with some key pieces of jewelry to elevate the seductive touch. Then, I finished the look by adding the pastel clutch bag! See? it was easy, right? These platforms definitely have become my go-to shoes for both day and night. Thanks to the platform soles, I can be comfortably tall! Yes, that is very important to me! No interesting details on the shoes, yet the metallic color never falls to be out of fashion! I was really blown away by how much MISSGUIDED carry killer platforms (of course other shoes, too!) under $100 with vast amount of varieties!


As a personal note, I totally enjoyed photoshooting this look at UW. I really appreciate the great job that James did to make this whole set so much fun! There are tons of breathtaking buildings and sceneries at UW. Even the single light stand can be the perfect backdrop to compliment the whole look! I can't wait to go back and find other fun places to shoot at!

I hope you love the pictures as well as how I styled the dress for the night look!

       Happy Friday sweeties ♥

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! ♥

___________________________________

Some of my current crush colors are pastels, so when I was looking into the 2013's fall/winter trends, I am so pleased to learn that the pastels will continue to be a big trend!  I definitely agree with that because they are so pretty, are so tasty, and so girly! Who in the world would hate these colors, right?  I am already excited to shop for my fall/winter clothes in pastels and style them up with a mint-colorblocking, metallics, and other things to make an unexpected style!!!!

I found this lovely minty high-low dress at a local ROSS, I seriously couldn't wait to wear it!!!! The dress itself has a huge impact and totally embraces my girly summer look, while at the same time helping me to stay cool in the remaining summer weather. What's my most favorite thing about this dress? It's very fascinating and appealing when the wind blows.... You can easily imagine that, can't you?

Although this outfit is already impressive by the dress alone, I wanted to elevate my look by mixing it up with some accessories. 

The chunky clear earrings and the fresh white bag add a summer touch, and wearing the brown Steve Madden belt can elongate my height. On top of that, I chose a pair of nude wedge sandals so that I can generate the magic of my legs looking longer!!!

Oh I have one more magic trick for you to make your legs skinnier!
Just wear any anklets!!!
(This time I transformed my bracelet into an anklet!) 
Though they won't make a huge statement, they are definitely a great piece to upgrade your whole look!!!

Hope you like/love my minty dress and hopefully the anklet magic will work for ya too!

P.S. I am extremely in love with my new purple ombre hair!
 So many people have already given me some sweet compliments and are jealous of it! haha
