I think I want bangs, but I think they'd look awkward on me. Something about my hair just doesn't allow bangs to look nice on my face. Oh, but here are some photos that inspire me to be a little more creative with my hair or make me want to cut it. Or grow it. Sigh, I'm so indecisive!

Harajuku Shibuya Street Style

For some reason, this Youtube channel was 'recommended' for me by Youtube, and I decided to check it out. I'm really pleased that I did! The user films people they see in Harajuku that they find interest in, just as a usual street style blog would, except with a video camera instead of a photographic one. Check out their channel here.

Peru Peru Peru

I think Peru needs some more credit when it comes to fashion. I was reading an old Teen Vogue and saw an article of a girl helping kids in Peru get a pair of shoes. The little kid was super cute and so was his poncho and hat.

I never really realized Peru was so cool. Recently, I've been getting more and more into South America because of my Spanish class. My teacher's always telling me stories from when he lived in Peru and all of it just fascinates me! South America is pretty underrated when it comes to fashion (except the Brazilian models, ha. ha.)


I don't want to be the one to claim what Peruvians wear and don't wear, but the things I noticed and liked were the chunkier sweaters, hats (esp. the beanies with tassels), patterns, bright colors, and other knitted fancy duds.

john and yoko

They're one of my favorite famous couples. I don't care if you think Yoko broke The Beatles up, I don't care if you think she's 'ugly'. I think opposite of both prior statements. I love John. I love Yoko. I also love how they dressed. For real.


I love John's coat. I'm not a fan of real fur, though. Sean looks cute there! I think it's Sean at least.


My favorite sweater that John owns. I love Yoko's bodysuit


these outfits again! ho ho ho


Can't really see what Yoko is wearing, but another great John outfit and a cute Julian. Love the giftwrapping


My favorite outfits, probably. Their wedding clothes!


Okay, no. THESE are my favorite outfits.

um, hi, i'm alive

I'm sorry I haven't updated a lot. I get little inspirations every now-and-then, but they kind of go away when I'm mid-entry.

NEON NEON NEON (and leather)

Sorry for not posting for, what?, a month? I haven't really had inspiration, but for some reason - I do now! Haha. But nonetheless, autumn is coming soon and I'm excited and sad. I'm excited because school's starting again and fall fashion is my favorite! Boy oh boy. On the other hand, I'm sad because summer's ending. Although summer isn't my favorite season, this means no more long sunny days of doing nothing. Sigh!



[ American Apparel Socks ]

As the title obviously tells, I'm actually thinking of a lot of neons for fall. I don't normally wear neons for fall, or at all, but for some reason I'm into them right now! In reality, I would wear prep/schoolgirl/vintage things for fall (how typical, right?), but I suppose on other people, I'd really like to see neons! They're so colorful and fun and totally pop out for the summer/winter transition season. That's how I actually see fall and spring. Winter and summer are the huge seasons and fall and spring are more minor "transition" seasons. Don't get me wrong though, I love them (and their fashion) too!


[ Glasses from Urban Outfitters, t-shirt from Forever21 ]

I don't know where my sudden interest in neon came from. I think it started in '07 when my sister bought a neon green slip from Urban Outfitters or maybe in '04 when I first got a peek at FRUITS (at least I think it was '04). Then, I thought neon was weird or so-so. But gradually, as neon became more popular in 07-08 at school and as my sister made a couple more neon purchases, more looking at Harajuku street fashion, and lots of browsing American Apparel tights: I think I came to really like neon... minus the guts or skin tone to wear it.


[ All this black leather stuff from Urban, ha. ha... ]

If one were to wear neon, I don't find an all-neon outfit would be very... pleasing. I would feel like barfing because of all the extremely bright and distracting colors. Kind of like playing Katamari Damacy (I love that game, ha), but minus the fun. Also it would look like a big mess from the 80's or just unicorn barf. The most suiting thing to wear with neon is probably black, or dark brown, leather. Normally, I don't wear leather, but I think they suit neon well. It's more stable and not as crazy as neon, but still is wild. The leather items are so versatile too, so you can wear it with other things you own! Sorry for so much Urban Outfitters stuff, by the way.
