There is less than a month left before the exam period so I practically live at the library nowadays. It’s a pretty one-dimensional existence except that I have plans to go to the opera in San Fran this Friday. Can’t wait!

sea gypsy
Now that I finally got my advocacy brief out of the way, I’m spending the weekend on my family’s sailboat. When I’m playing sailor for a couple of days, I try to keep it pretty nautical – horizontal stripes, navy and white color schemes, casual blazers, and rope-inspired details. It’s nice to switch it up every now and then – law student by week, sea gypsy by weekend. Lol, this coming from a person who sails, maybe, twice a year. By the way, how amazing are these squirrels at the marina…super inquisitive and friendly.
Love is like linen; often changed, the sweeter.
Now that I’m fully immersed in the lifestyle of a law student again, all that connects me back to my amazing summer are my memories and these nostalgic posts. Not that going to school in California doesn’t have its own perks considering that just a few hours ago I was doing my criminal procedure reading by the pool. Anyway, back to the subject at hand…This linen top is now one of my vacation favourites. I bought it at a souvenir market in Korea during a quick lunch break from work. I love the simplicity of its hemming and silhouette. It’s charm is all in the fabric – that raw, tough linen that’s so fabulously primitive.

I had too much coffee this morning and it’s beginning to manifest itself in restlessness and over productivity. Hence this little unplanned post. I wore this a-line Laundry dress, plastic Marni aviators, and rose sandals to a farewell party in Japan. Farewell Tokyo!
a birthday in paradise
About four years ago I made up a new tradition for myself. I decided that I would make it a goal to spend every one of my birthdays in a new, preferably exotic place. This is one of my more…”extravagant” traditions – a little ambitious for a student’s budget but somehow I’ve been lucky so far. I figure I’ll just plant the seed and life will figure itself out. Anyway, I spent this year’s b-day on an island in Thailand called Samui and it was incredible. Not only was the island gorgeous, but on the 4th of August I got to ride an elephant, feed a baby tiger, ride on top of a truck (which proved to be more fun than I could have imagined) and eat spicy Top Yum Goong all day. In the spirit of quality tropical vacations, I kept my looks in Thailand casual and light.
