Hi guys! I’m excited to share a collaboration that I did with Tobi a while back. I am modeling their “Nothing Lasts Forever” romper. As I was scrolling their clothing, this romper immediately caught my eye. It’s a smooth polyester that feels like silk. The flowers are a fresh and bright print and it’s such a great addition to my closet! I paired it with Kate Spade “Imorana” heels, and a nylon bag with some patent accents. Me and Ed Tran headed to a park on a pretty day and snapped these shots- I love the outcome!
…Cute Active Wear (featuring Adidas!)
Hi readers!! I have been having an absolute blast at college and I’m really appreciating my busy but fun-packed schedule. Lately, I have joined a dance off team (our performance is right before Thanksgiving!) The practices are so intense -most nights we practice from 7pm to 2am- but it’s totally worth it for the bonding and for the overall experience. Those who know me well or even just follow me on social media might now that intensive physical exercise isn’t the biggest part of my life. I prefer to exercise through activities such as walking, yoga, or occasional dance workshops. However, exercise is exercise nonetheless, and one of my biggest motivations for going to the gym and getting active is looking the part! I’m very excited to share a recent sponsorship with Adidas and Her Campus. Photocreds to my friend Charlie Chang! Be sure to check out his facebook page as well and give it a like! 🙂
Here is the first look! The jersey and shorts are part of the climalite line, which is made from 100% single jersey polyester and lightweight cotton. They do a great job of helping the wearer stay dry, comfortable, and cool. 🙂 I am excited to wear the jersey to hip hop practice sometime because it is really comfortable but still looks edgy and stylish !
My second outfit features a casual cotton tee and baseball. I love the baby blue color of the shirt, and I love the baseball cap as well-I wear it around campus a ton! I used to wear snapbacks, but I like that baseball caps give off a more laid back and comfortable vibe. Depending on what I wear snapbacks with, I can look like a total fob! Haha, not that it’s bad! It’s just one style, and you know I like to switch things up 🙂
My last outfit makes me feel so spirited! The blue and gold hoodie is part of Adidas’s climawarm collection, and it is 100% polyester fleece. The mid-weight material helps promote heat retention- perfect for the upcoming winter weather! I really think the colors are stunning and it’s always nice to have school spirit. It’s awesome to see so many people on campus walking around sporting the school name on their clothing <3
Anyway, I hope you guys enjoyed this post!! Cute clothes can be a great part of your workout motivation, and keep in mind to always try to incorporate some exercise into your lifestyle here and there. I know we all get super busy, but we have to make sure to look out for our bodies too 🙂 I always feel a lot more energetic, peaceful and refreshed after squeezing in some exercise. If you are a UCLA student, be sure to check out the UCLA student store (link here: http://bit.ly/1h5E4QS) for a range of Adidas climalite and climawarm pieces! I think most of my exercise clothing is from Adidas, because I love the fit and their logo~
Thank you to Adidas and Her Campus Media for sponsoring this post!
Stay tuned and love always,
September Once More
It was a bittersweet end to my last days living in Palo Alto (for the time being.) It’s hard to leave knowing that it will never be quite the same home, even as the same love and memories exist there. Even familiar things can become quickly unfamiliar, and in my years ago many things will change. However, with this heart-tugging goodbye to my hometown behind me, I am so excited to embark on the next chapter of my life- college!
In a small commemoration to the beautiful city of Palo Alto, I decided to take some photos around my neighborhood. It’s September once more; it’s so interesting that a year has passed. Every passing year feels simultaneously longer, because I’ve been traveling so much and taking on so much, as well as shorter, because I’ve been having so much fun and being with loved ones. I’m entering the best years of my life and I can feel it omnipresent around me.
Signing off from the eternally sunny Los Angeles for the first time!
Stay tuned and much love.
amidst summer rain
In our lives, there are a million beautiful instances that pass in a glimpse. Some of these beauties we anticipate, some we catch in the present, and some are only registered in retrospect. I observed so many moments like these in my two months traveling around Asia this summer. I was lucky to capture one of these moments in an (albeit scattered) , group of photographs. While visiting a sightseeing location in Taiwan on an incredibly hot day, out of nowhere it began to rain; a drizzle turned quickly into a down pouring. I love when it rains in the summer. It might sound weird- it’s not one of those things that I would list if you asked me what I enjoyed. Whenever it happens however, my brain scatters and drops everything, and my concentration pulls to the occurrence around me.
It frequently rains during East Asian summers, due to the high humidity. Those moments of warm and enveloping rain become one of my treasured souvenirs. When the first droplet briefly interrupts the heat, I am anticipating the sudden ducking for shelter that will follow as more and more fall. When it rains in warm weather, I suddenly experience the calm of returning home. Amongst the uncountable amount of beautiful instances that have passed in my life, these memories of a friendly rain I always manage to catch.
enjoy the moment, enjoy the day
