first outfit post

My very first outfit post! exciting stuff. I'm still learning to figure everything out frow how to tweak pictures to taking pictures from the best angles etc.




In this first outfit, I'm wearing my favorite navy school blazer,  grey hoodie, minidress, and black stirrup tights with some seriously sexy Giuseppe Zanotti heels. The only reason why I'm wearing stirrups with this outfit is because I couldn't find any of my regular black tights. Later that day, I found them all in a bag, nicely folded. I forget that I bother to do things like that now that I live away from home. 






 
Anyway, let's move along to the second outfit. I'm wearing the same hoodie and dress but took off the tights to show off those lovely Givenchy wedges. Aren't they beautiful? It's hard to believe that they are so comfortable.

balenciaga goes sci-fi



















































These leather and latex shoes/ boots from the fall 08 ready to wear have me tossing and turning at night. They are definitely out of this world and they sort of remind me of Worf's forehead on Star Trek.

always in the mood for mode

I just got home from an acting fundamentals class at school and spontaneously decided that I finally wanted to start my own blog. I'd been contemplating the idea for quite a while now so I guess it wasn't that spontaneous but I was chickened-out by the thought of making that commitment. The truth is that there are so many wonderful fashion blogs out there that I read religiously already like the obvious fashion toast, style bubble, the cherry blossom girl, and so many others, but why be chicken if it's something I love and think about all the time anyway. Right? So here it is, the beginning of a collection of love notes to all things fashion plus some of my other obsessions such as food, films, and decor or maybe some things that I just find silly and might want to share because it's that good, for instance, the clip above. The name of the blog was inspired by one of my favorite films, "In the mood for love," by the lovely Mr. Wong Kar Wai.
