Red, Orange & Blue feat. Adidas Yung-1

I'M WEARING>> Top: Something Borrowed// Jeans: Pull & Bear// Shoes: Adidas// Bag: Stradivarius// Sunnies: Monki

If the red and blue combo is good enough for Superman, Spiderman, and Captain America (to name a few), then it's good enough for me! Hi loves, I'm back! Macau's weather had been horrible from the moment we came back to Macau - with some spots of sun in between - up until when these photos were taken.

I thought this day would be different, but it turned out not to be. It was sunny earlier, but then the sun disappeared sometime around 3PM and never came back. Sad, I know. But other than this, I had a pretty good day. Family shopping trips and errands with Leon made the day eventful, and I felt uninhibited in this outfit I donned for the day. Red. Sigh, what doesn't match this color right? I remember a time in my life when I was afraid of the boldness of the color red, but now I find myself pairing it with almmost everything.

These jeans that I've been wearing a lot lately has not once reached this blog, and it was just high-time to remedy that. Yes, I know that I have like a dozen other similar colored pants in my closet, but these denim ones are close to perfection. I paired it with this crop top I was going to bring to Japan, but unfortunately it didn't come on time. Finally these insane shoes I picked up in Japan. I saw them on two of my fave bloggers (Sea of Shoes/Song of Style) and knew I had to pick them up as well. The colorway is insane! But weirdly wearable at the same time. Perfect, comfortable shoes for a day of errands.

Sigh. I'm wishing for the weather to let up soon. Here's hoping lovelies, because I still have so much to show you! So see you soon - Che

Tokyo | Asakusa

I'M WEARING>> Shirt: Spinns Harajuku// Joggers: Reclaimed Vintage via Asos// Shoes: Adidas// Bag: Stradivarius

Hi loves! Here's my last post of our most recent Japan trip, finally up! This time around, instead of taking pictures of my daily outfits while travelling, I opted to take only a few outfit shots and do more travel shots instead, especially of places that I either went to but didn't give enough love last time, or places I missed altogether.

The beauty of Japan is that every place is different. Osaka and Kyoto are different beasts, and Tokyo is something else altogether. I thoroughly enjoyed Tokyo this time around, if I do say so myself, because we had five, as opposed to two, days to visit this place. More food was tried, more places were seen, and some were revisited.

Last time I was in Tokyo, I actually opted to stay here in Asakusa, at the Gate Hotel Kaminarimon. It was an amazing hotel with an amazing view, but now I realised we were actually quite far from everything else. I also realised that I didn't even get to see the surrounding areas of Asakusa last time, which is a damn shame because this place is pretty AF! It's the cultural hub of Japan, with the large Sensoji Temple as its main attraction. If you're looking for souvenirs in Tokyo, I recommend Sensoji Temple for all the cute Japanese kitsch and traditional snacks! They're all here. For cheap souvenirs and food stuffs, definitely Tokyo Tower.

Anyways, by this time in our trip, I had all but depleted the mess of clothes I had brought with me to Japan. I'm still a bad packer so basically all my Japan outfits were created on the fly, sometimes as I was getting ready in the morning (no joke). I brought the pieces but I did no pre-planning of any of the outfits. Actually, by this time, I had run out of shirts, and while I love this combo I came up with now, it was a different story when I was staring at my luggage, wondering what to wear. I found it too loud, you see, not really matching the surroundings, and I don't know, weird.

But a few hours later I came to realise that I was somehow, low-key, channeling Dua Lipa from IDGAF, a look I had tried and failed to emulate before, hahahaa. So yay me! This shirt is new as well, from my fave Japanese clothing store, Spinns. You should check them out lovelies! I also made my sisters believers on this insane brand. My shirt says 'Earl' BTW.

Anyways, this finally concludes my pictures from Japan! I hope you liked this series, and more outfits coming very soon! See you lovelies - Che

Tokyo | Lost in Translation

Pictures by Leon, KateeOTD, and yours truly

Tokyo must be one of my favorite cities in the world, for very good reason. One, it's insane - a one-stop shop for all things Japan, with culture, entertainment, old, new and basically everything in between. You can see from the discord in these photos, jumping from peaceful shrine, to busy city, to balls-to-the-wall insanity in one post.

These pictures were basically all the extra pictures of Japan I could cram in one post, and boy was it not easy. My sisters, Leon and I explored Tokyo in detail this time around, flitting from traditional stuff, like Meiji shrine, to new, like this amazing arcade, with interiors fitted to look like old Kowloon, complete with scary doorway that I do not remember seeing in HK hahahaha. There was also much-needed anime-related shopping and Maid Cafe-ing at Akihabara, checking out souvenirs at Asakusa, One Piece-ing out at Tokyo Tower, stopping by Shinjuku for a prison-themed dinner, and finally swanky drinks in an unassuming yet high-end bar that served custom cocktails (there's no menu) that was somehow situated in a dilapidated apartment building.

Oh and there was shopping to be done at Harajuku. I got some amazing pieces, thanks very much, most of which I've already worn in this post - like the flannel skirt and the cropped polo I sported in Asakusa. There's also a longline nova check coat, lilac top, and Adidas Yung-1s in my future. Tee hee.

I may just really write a guide map for Japan soon, so there's that to look forward to, as well as my last post from Japan this time around.

For now I leave you this. See you soon lovelies! - Che

Tokyo | Shibuya Crossing

I'M WEARING>> Top: Pretty Little Thing via Asos// Skirt: Pink Latte Harajuku// Shoes: Topshop// Bag: Stradivarius

This is probably one of the best shoots we did in Japan this time around. You see, lovelies, the last time I was in this mind-numbingly cool crossing, Leon and I just did not have the right equipment to take in this place. We made do with what we had, but I always planned on coming back to this place just to try again.

Good thing we succeeded this time! Using one of our newer lenses, I finally can show you this amazeballs area of Tokyo. For this shoot, I just wore whatever it was that wasn't already dirty in my suitcase, so this skirt is brand-new, bought in Harajuku the day before. I paired it with this mockneck crop top that is almost completely backless, hence also making this one of the breeziest outfits I wore for the summer.

Oh gosh, I just heard that Osaka and Kyoto were devastated in floods and lots of rain lately, and my heart goes out to Japan, I hope they recover soon! Anyways, that's it for this post loves. See you soon! - Che

Kyoto | Arashiyama Bamboo Grove

I'M WEARING>> Top: Zalora// Skirt: Forever 21// Bag: Stradivarius// Shoes: Topshop

Hi hi! I'm back with a new post on Japan, and this one's a doozy. I didn't get to go here last time around, since we were only in Kyoto for 24 hours. But no time like the present, right?

A little advice tho, do not come here in summer. Aside from being one of the prettiest places I've ever seen, it was also one of the most uncomfortable. Humidity was highest this day, and the sun beat down on Arashiyama from the moment we left our hotel, bags in tow, until pretty much the entirety of this day.

It didn't help that my outfit was stuffy as well. I felt like I was swimming in this top/skirt combo by the end of the day. That shimmer on my skin? That's sweat, not highlight hahahah.

However, it didn't change the fact that Arashiyama was a beautiful sight. Even the streets along the bamboo grove are pretty, and we did get some reprieve from the heat in Zarame - a high-end Cotton Candy store. Delicious! We tried their Sakura Milk flavor, and let me tell you, it's not just sugar cotton, there's an actual flavor.

Anyways, hope you liked this set, and I can't wait to show you the next ones from Tokyo! See you soon loves! - Che
