ODJ

I’ve been super lazy to post ODJ lately, and haven’t had time to do so either.

Yesterday:

lace and chiffon blouse: Forever 21

corduroy skirt: Fornarina

bow slingbacks: Lela Rose for Payless

purse: Gucci

watch: Rolex

When I was dressing yesterday, I had to ask myself whether I was too pink. The pictures are kind of dark, but the blouse is actually more pink than it is purple. Oh well. For once I felt super girly in all my pink wear.

And the day before yesterday was the exact opposite, in all dark colors:

rabbit-fur tank top: Gianfranco Ferre

long cardigan: Moda

shiny black leggings: American Apparel

lace and bow heels: Kenneth Cole

necklace: made by myself!! =)

I don’t know if you can tell from the pics, but I’ve lost 10 lbs since the inception of this blog. I’m trying to lose weight before my wedding next year, and I’m doing quite well. I don’t need to lose any more weight, but I’d really like to add more muscle, and start toning myself, esp. in the ab/thigh area. Oh, and I really hate my chubby looking face, I really wish I’d lose some fat there!!

Trying to channel one of my fashion icons (Kate Moss) today with the leggings/blazer/heels combo:

Gray oversized tuxedo jacket: Tulle

Yellow shirt/tank: BCBGMAXAZRIA

Gray leggings: unknown

Gold chain necklace: Forever 21

Crystal embellished heels: Enzo Angiolini

Patent black cluch: Balenciaga

turtleneck: Banana Republic

sweater dress: H&M

skirt: Victoria’s Secret

socks: Daiso

shoes: Tory Burch

I’m in love with these socks that I bought at Daiso (for $1.50!); there’s actually a hole for the heel so that the socks don’t bunch up at the feet:

They’re so cute! And they keep you warm too

I went Mother’s Day shopping for my mom today at Valley Fair. I bought her a box of tea (samplers) so she can see which type of tea she likes. I know she’s into black and herbal tea, but I thought a sampler would be great so she can taste a variety! I bought her a 30 pack, so I’m sure she’ll find something she likes!

I also went window shopping and found a really cute F21 dress! They only had one available in my size, and the clasp was broken So I had to pay the extra $6 for shipping to order it online. Too bad it’ll arrive in 5~10 days (not in time for my dinner date with dBF this weekend)!

$24.80, strapless chiffon dress

The weather’s been a hit or miss lately… it’s either pouring rain or cloudless sunshine all day! The one thing I hate about Bay Area weather is that unlike other cities, you can’t look out the window in the morning and know the weather for the entire day. Here it could be 38 degrees in the morning when you wake up, but then turn into 80 degrees by afternoon! How annoying is that when you’re trying to decide what to wear to work in the morning! I usually just try to layer clothing so I can peel them off as the day goes on.

ODJ:

I just realized that my necklaces I bought in Japan match the color of my button-down shirt!

Shirt: Banana Republic

Sweater: Zara

Necklace: unbranded (bought in Japan)

Pants: Forever 21

Shoes: Aldo

Purse: Chloe

These Forever 21 pants are actually one of my favorites. They are the only pair of F21 pants I have… maybe I should check them out more. I love how they are low-rise and tight in all the right areas For some reason I never think of F21 when I think of “work clothes” though, maybe that’s why almost all my non-jeans pants are from BR!

On another note, I need to learn how to use the dBF’s camera… my iPhone camera sucks at taking pictures! You can’t even see that my pants are actually pin-striped…

April Fool’s

Happy late April Fool’s!
