Venice Beachin' - OOTD

Happy Spring~

Spring is finally here!

However, it seems as if SoCal weather decided to jump right to Summer. The transition between sweater weather to crop top weather was rather abrupt this year, but I'm not complaining! It felt absolutely amazing to destress at the beach, exposing myself to some sunlight and vitamin D I've been missing out on due to finals hell.

한국은 날씨가 어떤가요? 

캘리포니아에는 어김없이 봄이 일찍 찾아왔어요.

봄이라고 하기엔 너무 더운 날씨 ㅠㅠ 

이번주 최고 온도가 33도였나...? 

진짜 매년 여름이 당겨져서 오는 것 같아요!

이렇게 갑작스럽게 찾아온 따땃한 날씨

바다가 이쁜 캘리포니아에 사는 저로서는

반갑기만 하네요.

As much as like layering in the colder months, I love styling simple, lightweight pieces.

So today, I decided to put together an easy, breezy, and thrifty outfit.

Sidenote:

I've been an avid iPhone photographer for as long as I can remember, but couple weeks ago, my parents surprised me with my first DSLR, Canon 100D! I've been saving up for it for almost 8 whole months, but I mean, what can I say... They spoil me :> 

I'm still in the process of reading up on manuals and researching the complexities of this beautiful machine, so please let me know if you have experience with DSLRs (so I can load you with questions lol). Just kidding, but seriously, I can really use some advice right now and I'd love to just chat with you about it!

사진들 화질이 좋아졌다구요?!

ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ

얼마전에 아빠 엄마가 제 생에 첫 SLR 카메라를 선물 해 주셨어요.

제가 어릴때부터 제 성장을 사진으로 남기는걸 좋아하셨던 엄빠!

제 인생에 가장 아름다울 20대의 시간을 잘 기록했으면 하는 마음으로 

다 큰 딸에게 이렇게 큰 선물을 해 주셨어요 ㅠㅠ

아빠가 이때까지 찍어 준 사진만큼 좋은 사진들은 아직 못 찍지만,

앞으로 잘 쓸께!

고맙궁, 사랑해 :>

Best fishes,

Black and Pastel - OOTD

Hello, long time no blog : >

I'm finally done with my midterms, so hopefully I'll have more time to blog (at least until finals week, which is...like...in two weeks lol) 

#quartersystemproblems

But for now, hallelujah, I'm done! *~*

오랜만이에요! 

지난 몇주간 미드텀 기간이라서 포스팅을 많이 못했어요ㅠㅠ

파이널 시즌까지라도 포스팅 많이 하도록 노력할께요!ㅎㅎ

A few days ago, I went to the Museum of Contemporary Art in downtown La Jolla with two of my lovely friends, Rachel and Audrey. *Bee teee dubz, Rachel has an amazing fashion/personal blog, so you should check her out @ therachelstory!

얼마전에 친구들이랑 현대 미술 박물관을 다녀왔어요!

데일리룩 @ Museum of Contemporary Art

꼬우!

Let's get into it! 

merp derp contemporary art

so abstract

sini no comprehendo

OOTD: Today, I chose to wear a lavender lace top with all black. I've always thought that it would be strange to wear pastel colors with black (or dark colors in general), but today, I came to the conclusion that  black  really does go with everything. Although an all-black outfit can potentially make you look like you're going to a funeral, the soft lavender adds a subtle hint of color, which adds loveliness and subtracts witchy vibes. 

블랙과 파스텔 보라의 만남!

어떤가요?

grandpa cardigan: goodwill, la jolla

lavender lace top: urban outfitters

black high-waisted skinnies: BDG - urban outfitters

bag: super thrift store, oxnard (dooney & bourke)

If you're Shinah, Lilah, Melissa, or Christie, you know, but if you aren't, I was on the market for a pair of 1.) basic 2.) chunky 3.) black 4.) platform 5.) comfy chelsea boots for the longest time. 

AND, I finally found the perfect pair from zara.com :')

I'm still in the process of breaking them in, but hopefully they'll be super comfortable and customized to my feet by the end of this season hehe

가을 부츠 from ZARA.

why am I such a derp? always : <

I'd love to hear :)

October Fashion Favorites

Hey loves!

It is officially November! Did everyone have a fun Halloween?

I just took a fat nap after my last class and went out to dinner with one of my good friends.

Fun stuff right?! 

Enough about my crazy weekend.

벌써 11월이네요! 모두들 재미있는 할로윈 보내셨나요?

It's finally starting to feel like Autumn in San Diego.

I mean, today, I was able to wear a knit cardigan all day and not have a heat stroke.

Progress.

샌디에고에도 가을이 찾아온듯해요! 

이제 얇은 가디건이라도 안 걸치고 나가면 좀 쌀쌀하네요ㅠㅠ

그래도 캘리포니아에선 여름이 워낙 길고,

전 또 한국 (대구)에서 혹독한 여름을 보내고 온 터라...

추운 날씨가 반갑기만 하네요!

In today's post, I want to introduce my fashion favorites of October.

These are just a few pieces that I've been grabbing nonstop throughout this month.

I hope you guys enjoy~!

10월달 내내 씨니가 뭘 즐겨 입었는지 궁금하다면 꼬우!

Taupe Boxy Waffle-Knit Sweater - Urban Outfitters

I wear it alone, I wear it with crazy statement jewelry, I wear it on top of button-ups, and I wear it under drapey cardigans. So, so versatile and super Fall appropriate.

심플 & 깔끔.

두더 지색 와플 니트 스웨터 from 얼반.

Gold Statement Necklace - Lolo

This necklace was an impulse purchase, but I mean, those are the best kind of purchases...right?

This gold tribal(-ish) layered necklace is a perfect statement piece that you can wear over any plain, simple top. I definitely overwore it this past month, but I could care less. I think it adds the perfect amount of fanciness even to the most casual outfits. Love, love, love!

라호야 다운타운에서 겟한 쥬얼리.

2% 부족한 아웃핏들을 완성시켜주는 완벽한 statement piece!

Granny Cardigan - Goodwill, La Jolla 

I think this creme beige granny cardigan is my favorite thrift store purchase of all time (and that's saying something because I have a lot of good thrift store finds). It's super cozy and soft, yet the fit is still flattering.

구제 가게에서 산 할아버지 가디건.

너무 따땃하고 보들보들해요 : >

샌디의 가을/겨울은 이 가디건 하나로만으로도 충분히 버틸수있을거같아요!

Lace Crop Top - Urban Outfitters

I wore this white lace crop top constantly this month because I knew that I wouldn't be able to wear it in the months to come. Time to say goodbye to this baby until summer, but who knows. 

SD weather is so unpredictable...

레이스 크롭탑. 

이제 정말 다음 여름까지는 빠이빠이 해야할듯....ㅠㅠ

잘가 (가지마)

Spiked Strap Sandals - Nordstrom

Don't ever step on them. They will hurt you.

 Hedgehog in shoe form. 

주의: 밟으면 아파요.

Vintage Denim Jacket - Urban Outfitters 

I got this vintage denim jacket from the Urban Outfitters online sale earlier this month.  I love the masculine fit and the washed-out denim color.

데님 자켓? 셔츠? 몰라 something in between the two.

뻣뻣하고 박시한 핏이 이상하게 너무 맘에 든다.

Photo creds to my wonderful apartmentmate, Melissa! :)

That concludes my October Fashion Favorites post!

I'll be doing a beauty favorites for the month of November, so stay tuned : >

I hope to see you in my next blog post <3
