Floral Fever

(Arden B One Shoulder Floral Dress, Delia's Livia Floral Dress, Topshop Pastel Floral Skater Dress, Topshop Lace Up Floral Bralet, Roberto Cavalli Floral Chiffon Mini Dress, Marc Jacobs Floral Dress, Rebecca Taylor Strapless Floral Dress, Target Liberty of London Bicycle)

I am more than ready for spring, and I'm so excited the first official day is less than two days away. I've never liked florals much, but for the last three weeks or so I've been obsessively searching for the perfect spring-y, floral, flowing, girly dress. Hanami season is here, and this kind of dress is the perfect thing to wear on a warm sunny day, sitting underneath the cherry blossoms drinking and eating with friends.

I've chosen the above dresses from very affordable to much more expensive. And can you believe that bicycle is only $30? I'd gladly trade in my beaten up bmx for it.

Happy spring, everyone! Tokyo has been sunny every day this week, so I hope it carries on to you.

Hot Off the Runway

I am more than lusting after these killer skeleton boots from DSquared2 Fall 2010 RTW. Ahhh! I need those booties in my life. I would wear them with everything in my closet.

What I'd Rather Be Wearing

(Arden B. floral dress, Loeffler Randall studded flats, Intermixonline Leeora braided belt, Stella McCartney bag,
vintage sunglasses, Isabel Marant lapis oval ring, Topshop plait ring)
I wish I could say that I wore this today, while strolling through the Imperial Palace grounds with an ice cream cone, admiring the cherry blossoms in the brilliant sunlight.

The unfortunate reality is that I sat on my couch in my pajamas until 5pm, hiding from the miserable, rainy day outside, then threw on some clothes and went to work. I was able to sneak some delicious french toast in there though, so the day wasn't a complete loss.

"Dear Spring,
Please hurry up. I have cabin fever. The weather is being really tricky right now...a gorgeous, sunny, 60 degree day or two, and then the next three or four days are gray, freezing, and/or rainy. Whyyyy. I want to wear flowy, summery dresses. As much as I love my coat, I'm getting tired of it.
I would appreciate your sincere consideration. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Yours truly."

What are your plans for the weekend?

Dazed Out

Definitely wishing I had some coffee and a delicious cupcake right about now.
(Photo has been saved on my computer for ages...please let me know if it's yours!)




It's past 2am and I'm sitting in my bed, watching someone designing bags, and finally making the blog I've had in the works for months now. I actually made one earlier, but after one post I scrapped it.

Lets hope this one fares better.

So, like it says in the About Me, I'm a 20-year-old girl/woman/child from Tokyo. Food is the love of my life, and I've decided that the day my metabolism gives out will be the beginning of the end for me. A close runner-up to food is clothes...I'm often asked if I ever get tired of them. This is probably because my friends see me religiously hunting for the perfect shoes or dress for weeks at a time. I don't quit until I'm wearing it.

I honestly don't think this blog will be about anything specific. I see a lot of photo dumps in my future...whether they're to do with my life, clothes, food, inspirations, whatever.
I'm hoping to enjoy it, and hopefully anybody else who stumbles across it will enjoy it too.

Let's be awesome together. ♥
