it’s no news that i’m a big fan of vintage and vintage inspired items, but this is my very first vintage inspired dress in RED! i don’t usually like the color red but i fell in love when i saw this on Stephie’s Shop. i knew right then i had to have it. maybe its the beautiful floral print? i can’t really explain it, but i’m glad i got to wear this before summer goes away for good ♥
Camera Obscura – Lloyd, I’m Ready to Be Heartbroken
Hello loves! So just when I thought fall is right around the corner, the temperature goes up to the highest this summer. I honestly cannot wait to wear long sweaters again (if you follow me on twitter you know it’s because I have been buying TOO many), but instead of sulking, I’m going to throw open my windows and wear those pretty, airy pieces while I still can! I feel that I might be a bit late in the game wearing pleated chiffon skirts, but it could actually be a great transitional piece from summer to fall. Add a light jacket or sweater, that’d be appropriate for the cooler temperature, no?

i made this collar necklace out of faux leather my friend Rita had sent me. instant peter pan collar! what do you think?
happy september! the final days of summer upon us, and right around the corner are the busy days of fall and winter. while still holding on to the last little bit of warm weather, i also start to work on wearing pants and leggings again on a regular basis. i quite like the laid-back version of well-tailored women’s trousers you see everywhere this year. comfortable but not sloppy, polished but not uptight. i love my new trousers for that interesting shot of creamy green color, and the beautiful paperbag waist ♥
i live in vancouver and taipei. i love guitar and roadtrips. sunshine and the beach. cupcakes and coffee. indie music and foreign films. i want to scuba dive at the great barrier reef and speak french in paris.
