Hair etc etc etc

T by Alexander Wang t-shirt, Pamela Love ring, Elizabeth & James ring

I recently had my hair re-done. As you can see, the color is a bit more natural. I had Sonya at Oxenrose add a subtle "fade" that goes from dark to light. Eventually I want to re-lighten the bottom for even more contrast.

I could have bought a handbag by now. But instead I just have really awesome hair. Thanks Sonja! Have fun traveling through Asia!

Giving thanks

RVCA Shiver tee, vintage pants, Chloe boots

I'm glad many of you enjoyed the last post. Thank you so much for all of the email. I know I have a habit of coming of kind of callous. I can assure you that I'm really a very nice person in real life.

Since it's Thanksgiving. Here are 10 things I'm thankful for:

1. Working from home
2. Reality television
3. My boyfriend (he bought me a tv)
4. Prescription medication
5. The Olsen twins
6. The sushi restaurant next to my apartment
7. Kylie Minogue (I've been listening to "The One" nonstop)
8. This Alexander Wang sweater in white
9. Maker's Mark
10. All my readers

That's it! Happy Thanksgiving!

“I'm usually very miserable, so I reward myself with a fur coat every year. ” - DK

rip Daul Kim

I didn't like Daul because she was pretty (she was). I didn't like Daul because she had a cool sense of style (she did). I liked Daul because there was something there I could relate to. It's frowned upon to blog about your feelings on a fashion blog. But the truth is...

most fashion blogs/ people/ personalities just seem so boring. "Be a real person!" I would say. Do you ever wonder if anyone feels anything beyond "Oh I covet this..."?

One time, I wrote about my nervous breakdown. And then everyone called me a "bitch." It's too bad people aren't happy and smiling all the time, huh?

Bad Romance

RVCA dress, knit cardigan, drug store tights, Chloe Doc boots, vintage jewelry

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeey.

Last night, we wandered around the supermarket, listening to Lady Gaga's Bad Romance (in my head), and trying to rid ourselves of that disgusting lamb smell you get after hot pot.

On Halloween I dressed up as a LEGO. Putting something on your head is just too easy. My LEGO head and I (and some friends) ended up at a bar on Haight where the phrase "please don't grab at my head" doesn't begin to describe the horror. I shudder at the thought of a thousand hands on and/ or around my face.

RVCA sent me another sweet package of goodies including this dress and few other things I'll be wearing throughout the week. Ray got a haircut. And uh... I got new shoes.

Kings of the Wild Frontier

Alexander Wang dress, Topshop thigh high boots, vintage necklaces

On the way to my friend Jazabel's birthday at Nihon Whiskey Lounge. We stopped by Hotel Nikko to take some pictures. I love this dress - I had it altered awhile back but never bothered to take photos. Unfortunately, I love it so much I left it crumpled on my Chesterfield for a few weeks. Is that "effortless" or what!

Happy Halloween!!!
(I'm going as a LEGO head.)

B-Side Babies

Tom Ford Anouk sunglasses, La Dama rosary

Cat-eye glasses... meow!

I hope everyone had a nice weekend. Leticia at La Dama is amazing. She told me that this rosary can be made in various colors. I'm thinking white would be pretty cool.

These past two weeks have been the most unproductive two weeks of my life!!! I managed to put aside everything else because I suffer from that inability to focus/ prioritize/ multi-task. I'll probably get it together this week, or so my horoscope says...

ETA:

Missnonhuman

Michelle Yue did a serious ink portrait of me. I'm so flattered, thanks so much girl!!!

2046

Wong Kar-Wai's 2046

Faye Wong's outfit (or at least what you can see of it) reminds me of this Erdem lace trench I posted about a few weeks ago. If you haven't seen this movie, rent it or any Wong Kar-Wai movie for that matter and be inspired.

View the entire trailer here.

1... 2... 3

style.com

I think everybody had something to say about this Alexander McQueen collection. The first and last dress are really the best. Otherwordly.


I'm wearing this shirt from Yesstyle that I just received today. The perfect striped shirt. Man... those cute Asian girls can really sell you clothes. The waffle knit thing in the middle reminds me of MK. Everything on the site is basically under $100. Yes, the jackets too.



Movies that blur the line between art and porn are always worth checking out. I recommend Nagisa Oshima's "In the Realm of the Senses" if you want to watch a beautiful film.

a/s/l?

*Note: My friends and I have really inappropriate conversation. I guess my memory of the 90's was limited to AOL message boards and chat rooms. I thought My So Called Life was totally boring.

Takashi: hey

Me: a/s/l?

Takashi: 39/m/cambodia
u? asl

Me: 13/m/romania

Takashi: match made in heaven

Me: i think so

Takashi: wanna cyber?

Me: sure, what are you wearing?

Takashi: i'm wearing a cardigan from barneys

Me: take it off

Takashi: ok, now i have a thong made out of banana leaves on
you like that?

Me: LOL!!!!

Almost time for that one year...
