Hey lovely readers! Welcome to Xintiandi, one of my favorite window shop and lounge districts in Shanghai! This district incorporates the old shikumen style alleys and buildings of Shanghai with the newly refurnished shiny interiors, allowing shoppers to get a taste of both the old and the new. Xintiandi, (“New Heaven and Earth”) is the meeting point of past and future Shanghai.

I am wearing a dress from eshakti, which I adore! It’s definitely going to be a wardrobe staple for nights out in the future. Eshakti had a really innovative design and sizing process, which I got the chance to try out-and completely loved! I had a hard time picking between all their different dress styles. I am modeling their Virginia Dress.

I’ve always loved wearing really girly dresses (and accessories to match 🙂 when visiting Shanghai. There are so many different settings in the city, and you can dress according to the scene and your plans for the day!

Shanghais Pudong district has always struck me as very cool in color tone (glass and sleek cement all around.) I paired my fond memories of this region with a cute but simple pastel dress that my friend bought me from Japan. I absolutely love the lavender and periwinkle color combo, as well as the adorable details. I paired it with a mint satchel bag and a small pink belt.

Mid Autumn Festival- Traditional Chinese Photoshoot

Wish everyone a great move into Autumn and Winter! This festival marks the changing of seasons, and celebrates the night when the moon is the roundest, largest, and brightest!

I ate mooncakes with my family as we do every year, and the sweetness was delicious! I love sweets. I think lotus mooncakes are my favorite ^^

DREAMBOX CN 2014

Hi guys! I’ve been pretty busy since I’ve come back from my vacation in Shanghai, but I wanted to update my blog as well as post some pictures from the trip!

These photos are from a promotional photoshoot that I did for a professional photo studio in Shanghai called Dreambox. It’s currently popular among the teens and young adults. I wasn’t sure if I had the time to find any modeling opportunities as I was only there for two weeks, which isn’t very long after the time spent with family and friends is subtracted. However, this opportunity just came knocking on my door(not literally) , and I couldn’t turn it down!
