"...There is one emotion that he considers the most important of all: contempt. If I speak from a superior plane, that's far more demanding ... A lot of time it's an insult... it's trying to put that person on a lower plane than you. It's hierarchical." _from the book Blink.



(DVF dress/ Vera Wang Lavender / Tarnish scarf )

 How often do we express contempt towards our beloveds? unwillingly, and unconsciously...we probaly do it more than we'd preferred to admit. nevertheless, as long as you come to a realization, you are far better than those who don't :-)

I went to take a peek at my (or more rightfully my parents') apartment in Songdo, Incheon. Beautiful area, and skinny tall buildings reminded me of New York..only by a little bit. We even got our very own Central Park with floating cabs. pretty incredible. I'm starting to have a better picture of what my dream home would look like. probably will take me more than a decade to get there (plus I might change my mind along the years) but lets hope I get there someday.

2011 is half way gone. but in that other half to come so many things are to be done. I've been slacking on almost everything (even shopping) since school has been out and just being comfortable at home..but It's about time for me to get off my butt and start moving again! Time flies, and in that flying moments we need to make a difference..there shouldn't be "same old same old", every moment should count :) positive thinking: first step to success.

should I get those hightop converse.................. decisions decisions.

IRRESISTABLE





It has been awhile! I cannot even start to explain the amount of stress I've been getting and the almost implausible work experience I went and is still going through. It's like hell with a tiny bit of sarcasm.. but to make it literally like hell, my internet disconnected for over a week and finally yesterday, it came back on. So finally (I know I'm using the word "finally" a lot but really it's the only word that describes this very moment), right before my blog was about to sadly and unwillingly be abandoned I made time to do a post. Hurray to a day-off! I was supposed to do a posting on my Dreamy-Logo Iphone case but I'm going to just let that pass by since the draft is almost a month old and it wouldn't make sense to publish it now. But I will try to put some pictures on so you can see how adorable it is despite the fact that its just a piece of silicone :)

So, what this posting is really about is Raeburn pumps by Rag&Bone. Absolutely loved their runway pieces especially the flowy chiffon maxi skirt with black ribbons around the hip line...amazing. I recently adopted a new pair of pumps which I am very happy I did so after a long internal debate of "should i get it? should i not?" standing on a check out line. It's my first heels in a long long time and I'm trying to wear it every chance I get.I never wear and plan not to wear heels to school but these are hard to resist. So, I'm going to go on an unplanned, unnecessary shopping trip to downtown just so I can be in these perfectly olive heels. Equation of the day: shoes=love

SPRINGBREAK

It probably was the most stressful week of my life as far as I can remember. Work, work and more work was driving me insane when finally I had to end the tiring week with (literally) boiling soup dropped right on my leg. I got a second degree burn. What a great way to spend a spring break! I don't want to be all negative and upset but it definitely was the worst school break ever in the history of all histories. I try to find at least one positives out of all negatives and my conclusion is that I learned to appreciate time and realized that I have been taking time for granted. hmm..thinking like this makes me want to say that this spring break wasn't too bad after all..but then again I'm still angry at what happened so I'm going to stick with my first thoughts and call it officially the worst week ever! 





Okay, so that was me venting.    

Some good things happened too and I am very excited to share that..I finally ordered my iPhone case which was sold out for nearly a month! It was little bit pricey for a piece of silicon compare to the ones you can get on eBay for $5 but I would be very disappointed to watch it sell out again and realize its too late to regret of my stinginess. I will post about it when it arrives. I hope it's as cute as it looks on the screen.

p.s. I hope you all had a wonderful spring break!

PEACE

                                                                                                                                                                                 

Lately I have been so busy I didn't even have the easy ten minutes to just sit down in front of my laptop and write. I'm trying to do my best at everything I do after a disastrous semester last year not being successful nor productive in neither school nor work (was that too many negatives in one sentence?). And I think for now, I am doing a pretty good job. I deserve a pat on my shoulders :)

Yesterday I sent my first two orders out, which I almost shot myself in the process of printing the shipping labels...I was unusually patient for some reason maybe because I even enjoy the frustration that work brings me? whatever the reason is, for now I just love what I do. Even if it gives me no time to eat, I have to settle with some organic--usually not so tasty-- bowl of cereals after I finally arrive home. I guess I can somewhat relate to those who say "I love working" because right now, I really do love working. School is fun. Being busy has never been so peaceful before. I am so happy spring break is here because it just means more work for me to cover. After many years of slacking, I finally found what I love to do and I am very happy to make one step at a time to be where I want to be...It's looking good and I'm going to self-fulfill myself that it will be better and one day I will reach my goal...until then hope you are in peace too :)

P.S. I can't wait for my Marc by Marc Jacobs items to arrive from LA! yes, it's my weak point and my new obsession. It's affordable & simply cute. gotta love

MISSMARC

I am in love love love.. Marc Jacobs (not him personally, but his collection) stole my heart and i think I'm going to let it have it for a long while! In fact, I got my very very first Marc Jacobs dress during my trip to New York--which is already a month ago-- and am excitingly waiting on the perfect day to wear it out. It is going to be my all time favorite piece for this spring/summer and probably forever :]

                                              

 

Marc by Marc Jacobs Swimwear



So, I have a confession to make. I made a purchase on a new bikini set :] It is the perfect 70's feel I've been wanting for this year with a bandeau top -- fyi. bandeau tops visually make your chest smaller so if you are petite, you should rather go for a triangle top-- Now here comes the part where I actually make the confession..I have two other sets of swimsuits sitting nicely in my drawer, both new, never worn. yes, I know I shouldn't be stacking up swimsuits especially when I rarely ever go swimming here (It's too dangerous to go swimming during the summer time, high risk of getting skin cancer because the sun is just impossibly strong!) but I just couldn't leave it and walk away. Sometimes, I am smart enough to let go, move on and never regret but this one I knew it was going to follow me around like an air balloon. So I decided to blame it on my maybe-but-hopefully June trip to Penang as suppose to why I "needed" this Marc by Marc Jacobs bikini and now it is mine. Plus, it was on sale which is whippcream on a strawberry, a dollar found in your back pocket kind-of-thing.  I hope time goes faster and bring me to be with my lovely girls..and ofcourse we'll go on our traditional tanning trip to the "beach down the street". Truely paradise :)

 I hope MJ releases iphone 4 cases like this soon because this lil Miss Marc is something to die for.

  

WE HEART STOCKINGS !

(HUE: Tomato Orange Tights)

So I went on a treasure hunt to Last Chance-- after receving a breaking news that someone saw newly launched Miu Miu heels--I found no heels but something better! (really? can anything be better than MiuMiu heels?!) yes, when I saw these tan orange stockings I had to get them. Not only because it was at an impossible price of $.97 but also because I love the way this pumkin looking color matches with anything grey! The color can be daring, but it's definietly a must wear color for this fall season. so if you dont see any orangeness in your wardrobe, you know what to do ♥

20THINGS

                                                    
The number 2 has been what I call "my number" ever since I started liking my birthday and for ten years straight I'll have my number stuck with me : )

It was a simple birthday I had on Wednesday but an amazingly good one too. Birthday is one of my two favorite days of the year next to Christmas and I just can't remember when the last time I really enjoyed my birthday-- it all started from the starving memories in 9th grade biology class which i forget the name of, anybody? But this year, I would say was a prettty awesome one. Not just because of the fancy dinner and free chocolate cake but mostly because I have a lot of goals I've been planning on to achieve before the year goes by and I become legally legal. It's slowly becoming true one by one. I will definitely have to work hard for my dreams, but hopefully some luck will bounce in along the way. fingers crossed!

Despite the good things that happened on Wednesday, of course some not-so-good things had to happen to balance it out. For now we will keep it as simple as "misunderstandings" (I don't think the person involved will be happy if I tell the world (i wish?) what actually went on ). But to make it all up, I got a PACKAGE! of 20 very unique little things which all had meaning to it. So my conclusion here tonight is that, I willingly forgive you for all the crimes you commited on the last ten minutes of my birthday, which could have been perfect. I still love you. and of course everyone who's reading this :)

It's (almost) summer again. yes! my favorite season of the year; or maybe i just never got to live through other seasons enough to love it :) The sun, the beach, and the sand.. I never knew nature could make life so much more worth living (although I am far from the beach living in Arizona.) Really, what more could there be in paradise? Of course, the best part of living summer is I can wear my demin shorts and plain white tee yet still be stylish--everyday, all day!

Seems like the earth is upside down, summer might come little bit later than usual. But then again, I'm in sun-loving Arizona! This summer I will be dancing with the famous catuses on the rocky moutian <3
