Channeling major lolita vibes here. If only I had a lollipop hanging out of my mouth and my sunnies were little heart shapes. But then again, at my age that would probably be a teeny bit creepy. So let's call this the modern and grown up version of Lolita. The girl who no longer teases grown men because she herself is a grown woman, yet she's still attached to her feminine frocks and her cutesy ballet flats.


Photos by my mom

(Shakuhachi dress, Zara flats, Theyskens' Theory bag, Ray-Ban sunnies, BFs old beret)


This Shakuhachi dress is an old one I've had for a while and it's one of my favorites. It's one of those pieces that will never go out of style, years later and the print still feels very new. That's one of the reasons why I don't stray too far from my black and white pieces. They tend to withstand the color trends that always come and go. When in doubt, a black and white ensemble will always do the trick.
