I've been having a thought or two almost daily about an Asia trip I'm looking into for later this year. I may return to Tokyo, but also considering Hong Kong or Seoul. As much as I can't wait for that trip or the summer for that matter, seeing these girls show off their layering game has me ok with what's left of this in-between-seasons jam we're in right now. Props to PEOPLEPURPLE for showcasing the ill street styles from the streets of Seoul!

True Blue

It's been a minute since I've been inspired by an editorial in its entirety...until I saw this one from Dazed & Confused featuring Kasia Struss. Denim isn't going anywhere (to state the obvious), but those of us who love it beyond our skinny jeans can appreciate some inspiration here and there. This ed. kinda reminds me of old Nylon spreads from the early days of the mag- the best time for Nylon, which I'd gladly prove to anyone who argues any different..my archive goes deep!

Pour it up

Can we talk about Stella now? Boyish, gangster pinstripes, 90s chunky shoes (give. me. now.), loose (and I don't mean slutty) vibes all over. So into it. I always feel like she's on my level, no matter how left-field or expected a collection turns out. And Cara in that housedress-looking thing? WHATTTTT!

Double dare

This past Saturday, I headed to MoMA PS1 in Long Island City, Queens for the Vanity Projects Pop-Up Nail Salon. Vanity Projects is a concept conceived by Rita de Alencar Pinto, who plans on making the venture a more permanent fixture by the summer here in NYC. For my appointment with LA-based, Japanese-raised Britney Tokyo, I knew I had to go for something super fun. I had a million ideas floating in my head when I sat down at her table, but ended up picking a slime design I saw on her insta, and got that for all ten fingers. So stoked with the results!

Built A house up on it, that’s an ass state

I always fantasize about owning property one day and what I'd do to make it my own. The apartment I share with my roommate now is a pretty good preview of the path I'll be going down: modern but filled with sick art and design objects. "Quirky" is a word I don't really like to use but probably best describes that other bucket of things I tend to be drawn to. Butt bookends anyone?
