THREADSHOW @ the lab

thread is a showcase of emerging local fashion designers and the music and art that rock their world.











it was really festive! there was awesome music, a nail salon and a hair and make up tent. i had a great time shopping through all the racks of clothes, feather earrings and chunky handmade jewelry!

thanks to n.lai for always being the best photographer ever!

[f21 floppy hat, boutiqued top, members only leggings, wild pair leopard heels, boutiqued/thrifted/f21 rings]


(fyi! the green bracelet is the wristband needed for the show, lol not my accessory)


i got so many compliments on these heels so just to clear it up, they're not j.campbell's, they're wild pair and you can get it here.

my attempt at being a photographer! it was fun, but i think i'm going to leave it to the professional.

mix your blues

my all day every day routine.

my easy peasy go to look: good denim - belted, wedges, top (most of the time slightly tucked in), chunky rings and a tall white mocha.

nail files

forever 21 love & beauty set.. with LEOPARD caps! so cute! seriously, i'm such a sucker. switch the nail cap and its done deal. totally sold.

write this down.

always improving, constantly changing, ever evolving.
you know that women change their hair color as easily as they change shoes.
change is inevitable, embrace it.

i left my heart in San Franciso

i went on a girls trip to san francisco to celebrate my gf's 25th birthday! we literally ATE for 2.5 days straight. can you believe that we hit 12 food joints on our list?! from the gary danko's amazing lobster and duck hash, to hog island's oyster clam chowder, to ike's menage a trois sandwich, to mama's dungeness crab eggs benedict.. we tried it ALL. and it was fabulous! i think i gained about 13.7lbs on that trip, but it was well worth it!
