When In Doubt, Pile ‘em Up!
stacking four blacks
I love stacking bracelets. Always have. Must have been the Madonna influence from when I was little. Here we have 4 different black bracelets:
1. snap button closure leather band with stone and stud inset
2. long wrap with stones (neck/bracelet convo)
3. rhinestone stretchy
All from different places, different years
And, yes, there are more on the other arm as well :$

Hello? Hello? Can Ya See Me Now???
all-time fave boots, neon-orange, can be worn midclaf or folded to expose silver leather lining
The picture really does not do its neon-ness the justice. Yes they really are THAT bright!
These boots are Italian, but I had bought them at a store inside the 109 building in Shibuya back in 2004. I love them so much that I never did wear them much, especially since the outside is made of PVC, very prone to black scratches (as you can see)
Back then I would wear them midcalf, under pants, but yesterday when I had pull these babies out, I realized that they are lined in silver leather, and can be folded down! Total hotness as ankle boots! The silver gives the boots a bit of futuristic, space cadet feel.
Not the most comfy or stable boots, but I think I can manage.

Boho for Work (My “OL” Style)
Besides doing the slightly edgy/80s look, I am also really into retro and boho (gosh I guess this means I am into everything?!)
Here is what I wore to work today:
- Ruffled neckline small floral print tunic dress (Korea)
- Red long ribbed tank(Taiwan, 100NT)
- Faux fur cropped vest (Hongkong…major alteration was required, but totally worth it)
- Gold chain necklace, vintage gold raindrop earrings (not shown) and tons of bangles
- Black woven leather a la Bottega boots with gold studded tassels on the side

Overfed closet overflowing with hats on top and overstuffed with purses on the bottom.

Just too bad that many things don’t ever see the light of the day though… RIP, guys, rebirth shall come soon
