acid wash denim playsuit - wawa boutique 

black skirt - h&m 

black lace underskirt - mom's closet 

black lace up boots - spring 

i'm completely obsessed with this denim playsuit (which i wore as a top) that i got with my mom a few weeks back . i'm in love with the lace cutout and the bead detailing, its perfect except it's a little bit small on me (dang you asian store one size fit all). since the acid wash denim was a bit heavy and grungy i tried to balance it out with something more delicate, a thin black skirt with a lace underskirt underneath. 

today i had one of the most productive days of my entire summer. i managed to finish an image for my commissions, shoot an ootd, do an illustration for that ootd and bleach/ombre a pair of shorts and IT WAS AWESOME. 

after that i decided i wanted to do some more so i finally got around to redesigning my blogger layout (woo hoo), which was kind of painful but also rewarding because while it was really confusing it was also nice to see how everything turned out. now i just have to put in some custom banners tomorrow or the day after. :) 

i'm behind on some posts here because i've been pretty busy and a little bit lazy but i've been pretty active on my daily tumblr and on my lookbook where i post rather frequently (ootd's as well as daily inspirations and creations). 

i'm also trying to do illustrations for all of my ootd's which will be really really hard to do but i think it'll be really beneficial and will help improve my skills. sooo challenge accepted.. kind of. :) 

my ombre diy on a pair of old shorts, which i'll be wearing in an outfit soon :) 

more posts coming soon ! <3

I did this shoot a while back with my mom, but was always too busy to edit the pictures. Now that I look back, there were a couple of really nice shots! Hope to do more shots like this in the future :) 

I'm also introducing my mom on the blog, isn't she cute? :D It was her birthday yesterday so afterwards I decided to finally take the initiative and finish editing pictures from the shoot. I wish I had pictures from her birthday celebration too but I didn't bring my camera... :( 

Too things I should always bring with me, that I always choose not too because they're too heavy or I'm too lazy: my camera and my sketchbook. 

I really want to get a new big bag so I can like effectively carry them all around but I don't know if that'll cure my laziness.... Hum. :(

platform sandals - bass 

I haven't really felt like blogging recently, I don't know why. I just feel really out of it and tired all the time. :( I also have a big job to work on right now so I might not be around blogger too much for the next week or two.

I'll still be around on lookbook and tumblr though! :) 

Today I went downtown for a lunch meeting with the organizing committee for a project I'm working on. We went to this place called Big Daddy's in hopes of getting to try alligator meat, but sadly it's not alligator season... so we had to settle. But their food was good and the conversation was good so it was still good even without the alligator meat. 

Afterwards I roamed around downtown with a couple of friends and my boyfriend. My boyfriend decided to try taking reign of the camera (yes!! finally mwahaha ) and so the pictures today are credited to him. 

One of the most fascinating finds of my day. The PETA condom mascot. The campaign is actually for animal neutering, but it was smart how they got condom costumes to attract more attention. 

Ack, is it weird that I find a giant pink condom to be so cute?

Mhmm.... 

White Sheer Blouse - Urban Outfitters

Polka Dot Shorts - Thrifted 

Boat Shoes - Bass 

Bag - Aldo 

The white sheer blouse was a gift from my boyfriend from a few months back and I've been keeping it in my closet because sometimes I'm too scared to wear the things he buys me, even though I love what he buys me (what if I ruin it? does he realize how clumsy I am?). 

I also just finished cutting and hemming a pair of thrifted capris into the shorts I'm wearing here. I should really do more DIY's. 

Anyways, I would write more but I must pack because I am going to OHIO tomorrow morninggg... why do I procrastinate so much I'm going to regret this so much in the morning. 

See you in a week blog & bloggers!

Love you all <3
