As it starts getting cooler outside, life gets cozier and cozier. These are my visions for upcoming looks this fall: (1) merging of feminine and polished sensibility with the ease of a favourite cardigan and (2) pleated chiffon skirts peeked out from hearty sweater dresses. Ummm…can’t wait!

ginza shopping
School is back in session and so far I’m enjoying my second year of law school. In Korea, a partner at the law firm where I clerked told me that part of the reason that South Korea has seen such rapid development is due in part to their non-procrastination approach to life. I plan on adopting this “approach”…so I too expect some developments
. I wore this silk floral dress by Chris Benz, from the 2009 Resort Collection, for an evening of shopping in Tokyo with my classmates.
silver pieces
This post is coming to you from my tiny Tokyo hotel room but the pictures were taken back in Toronto. I paired this form fitting Alice + Olivia dress and a scarf with silver accents to meet up a friend for dinner and a movie. I can’t wait to get to my Tokyo posts and to show you some of what I’m seeing.
in time for spring
I picked up this simple little dress at a vintage shop in San Francisco and it has become one of my library favourites. Conveniently enough, its fabric never seems to wrinkle and its loose fit makes it comfortable to sit in for hours. As the deafening silence of the library room and the double vision from excessive reading begin to shut down my senses, I can look down at the pattern of the dress and it completely finishes the job…leads to official loss of sanity

and the boat drifts
My family is visiting me in California for March break which has so far translated into engaging in two main activities – chilling on a sailboat in Berkeley with my dad and brother or in San Francisco museums with my mom. Each comes with its own set of outfit inspirations and I just let the activity inform the choices. This is my “marina” look. The cargo pockets and the loose silhouette of the Birger by Mikkelsen dress made it my first pick for a day on the boat. I could put one of those boat thingy magigies in my pockets
