Black and white, my favorite colors to wear! I wanted to create a look suitable for fall but today was just so warm that I probably would've died in a sweater. I think this is a great outfit to wear when transitioning from warmer to cooler weather. A light kimono to keep me warm and cover up my crop top. Over the knee socks so I can still wear shorts when it's not too hot outside.

No crop top? No problem.


The thing I love about thrifting is that you can find pieces with unique and quirky patterns that you can't get anywhere else. This vintage floral patterned top reminds me of old wallpaper patterns found in homes and it's not a common item you can get at most retail stores. Found this button up top at Savers Thrift store and cut off the sleeves. I'm not that great with DIY so I don't trust myself cutting up a top to turn it into a crop top. However, I LOVE wearing crop tops, so I usually tie up bottom ends of my top into a knot to create my own crop top without the commitment or sacrifice of my actual shirt.

Today was such a gloomy day. Ordered a hot chai tea latte from the local coffee shop, which was perfect for today's chilly weather. Also got a picture of the pretty flowers outside of the shop. My outfit was inspired by my housemate when I saw her coming down the stairs with a denim jacket tied around her waist. I've seen people do this and decided to try this trend myself with my thrifted jean jacket.

This is an old picture but I thought I should still write about it. I'm wearing a boy's shirt. I don't know why but I've recently been loving wearing clothes from the men's section. I used to make fun of my friends for shopping there. I don't usually shop in the men's section, this shirt is actually an old shirt my guy friend didn't want anymore (which is where I get most of my boy clothes). I tucked this over-sized shirt into a small section of my shorts so that I wouldn't drown in the shirt and to show that I was actually wearing something underneath it. Added a snapback to go with the tomboy-ish vibe and my knee high socks because I love them so much. This is what I would call a lazy day outfit haha!

Spent my day getting some work done at a coffee shop. I love my new Calvin Klein wallet. So simple and elegant, which is what I love about Calvin Klein. I've been wanting to read 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami for the longest time. This 1,000 page book is going to take a while to finish though.They say you shouldn't judge a book by its cover, but this is one of my favorite book cover designs which is one of the things that drew me to this book. I attempted last summer but got lost with all the work of school and other commitments that I couldn't find the time to read. It's nice reading in a coffee shop - my very first experience doing something like this. I accidentally dropped my bookmark and the man sitting next to me was nice enough to make an attempt to get it for me. Too bad it fell right underneath my chair so he couldn't really reach it.

Chill day today. Loving my giant floppy hat - been wanting one for the longest time! Accessories like that really spice up an outfit. Wearing my new (sort of) leopard print kimono that I thrifted. The weather is so hot up here that it's difficult to create an outfit that you won't melt in. 

This is basically what I consider my everyday uniform to be. I usually wear a some variation of this outfit. Usually all black with a hint of color (white). I love over-the-knee socks because they allow me to still wear my favorite shorts even when the weather does not permit it. Also wearing my favorite thrifted cardigan. This picture doesn't do it justice because the whole thing is this beautiful detailed lace? (I'm not sure if it's considered lace..). I love making a knot with my tops to turn them into crop tops (inspired by Jenn Im) since I don't have a lot of crop tops and can't commit to cutting up my tops.
