Beach day

So I was in Chicago the past weekend.
went to the beach to check out ceremony locations..
since it'll be really short, maybe we should just have the ceremony under the small pavillion and have some photo shooting on the sand?? =D
well.. I've been stressed out about everything for a while and finally got to think that I'd better get some rest and be more laid back about things.

Some shots of Pudding this weekend in Chicago.

Pudding

Just realized that I should at least introduce Pudding

She just turned 1 year old on May 23rd!!!Yay!!
She's a Chihuahua mix.
Pudding looks quiet and ladylike at first...
BUT she's NOT.

Everyone knows Pudding thinks she's crazy, which is true.

Pudding is crazy...
She swims in the air if there's even a tiny drop of water or ice cube or even soy sauce or eye cream somewhere around!!!!

she dashes at home 24hrs a day. and she thinks she's big :)



by the way, we're in Chicago now =)

YSL patent small Easy

so here is another baby I got.

not sure if I'm gonna keep it or not because of the size hmmm
I usually wear big bags since I've got way toooo many things such as my dslr..
but I have to say...I LOVE THIS BAG!!!

the shade's so beautiful! and the size is cute too (regardless of the fact that it's not practical enough for me perhaps)




and the gold tone hardware!!!



By the way, I'm going to Chicago in a few hours and will be there until Sunday night.

got a looong list of things to do there..most of them are for the wedding next weekend!!!

OH! also one main point is! I'm getting a color and a hair cut too!! @ Sho Studio
Hope it's gonna be great!

Some fuscia moment

Just realized how many fuscia shoes I have.

These are the ones currently on display in the shoe closet :P



upper: all Maison Martin Margiela
lower: Manolo Blahnik, Prada, Vivienne Westwood x Melissa

YSL studded Easy Rock...and my wedding gown!

So I got 3 new babies today :P

not sure if I'm gonna keep all of them but definitely this one!!!!
O.M.G. the moment I tried it on, I knew I found the one I've been waiting for!!!

It's been months (more than half a year actually) since last time that I'm feeling this way about a bag!!!
haha. I have bought a few bags till now but not anything exciting like this one!!

I was not sure if I liked the black Y-rock so much but this white one definitely fits me I guess =D
It's just the right size and right color and texture and combinaton of softness and something fun.
It is a very serious bag but not SO serious :p

oh and I'm wearing the sandals my friend UA got me from the Margiela sale in NYC (thanks so much!)
and U KNOW WHAT? I picked up my Vera Wang wedding gown today!!! YAY
well I'm not gonna wear it for the small U.S wedding next weekend but I'm taking it to Japan and China for my two big weddings next year!!!
(but I'm still gonna wear another Vera Wang gown next weekend for the small wedding!)











Dress -- Zara
Sandals -- Maison Martin Margiela

Byebye Marni wedges

So I returned these wedges yesterday.




they are really adorable but just not my style I guess.
I couldn't walk in wedge+platform! :P
high heels are more comfortable to me than platform wedge...sigh
and it feels really flat =(

But I still LOVE MARNI!

Sunday and Rodarte

Sunday was a little busy.
I went to Jo ann to get some fabrics and materials. but before that I had a little brunch.
Thanks to my future-hubby-in-2-weeks for making sandwiches =)



And for the first time, I finally got to wear this skirt from Rodarte for Target collection.
It's such a beautiful skirt in mustard color. I love the layers it has and how they move!







and we had some Korean style shaved ice =)



well actually life is getting a bit crazy these days since I'm getting married next weekend.
YES. NEXT WEEKEND. so I'm trying not to freak out..
and I'm so so so bad at planning things ahead so now:
dress is being altered, cupcakes ordering to be done this weekend, flowers I asked my friend to help but I still need my bouquet and maybe some flowers for the table, Shuttle or trolley still needed, vows to be writted. OH and YOU KNOW WHAT, I still need to pick up a spot for the ceremony on the beach and also I need a B plan if it rains on that day. Also I need to talk to some friends to figure out the reception timeline. And I need to find out how I will have my hair and makeup done.. O.M.G. wedding planning is just crazy.

Sorry to write these down here, but I need some kind of exit for the stress...lol

Baggy jeans and Lace-up boots

It was cloudy + rainy today.

so I tried to wear something casual and easy but something makes me feel happy too.

These jeans actually were from some outlet I went to three years ago in Japan.
They have some suspenders but I took them off and they are super big for me now...
anyways, when I was cleaning the old stuff they just popped up =D

I went to H&M today.. but sadly no against aids collection yet.

Cloudy Day and MJ Bird Cage bag

Sorry the title is absolutely random.

I had my camera with me the day before yesterday but sadly I forgot to charge it...

so here is the only pic I have...

I have been really lazy at home. so some jersey jumpsuits and a sweatshirt might be the best outfit for grocery shopping =) oh and guess you can't see clearly but these are the sequin wedge pumps I got from F21. They have leopard print too. And the grey sweatshirt actually has some bronze-ish metal things on the front...all from F21.



Nothing related to the outfit.

I received this bag today.




The Marc Jacobs Jennifer Bird Cage bag.

Definitely not my thing and of course it is for someone else. Hope she likes it.




P.S: the studio converting thing is going well. Finally things are kind of coming together =)

shirt dress

I bought this shirt dress a few years ago and kept wearing it over and over.
You know some pieces in your closet are totally worth the money right?
I never got bored of it and keeps coming back to this dress.

and yes. of course I didn't know the neutral color will be in this season lol

I was shopping at the containers store last weekend, the day before graduation.
boxed and tubs needed for cleaning/rearranging the whole apartment.

I've been working hard on this project for almost two weeks, but still...not much has changed...
