The Honorary Oregonian
Wanderlust isn’t just international: it can be cured in America too. This last week, I hopped on a plane to visit my college roommate, Rebekah in Oregon. As the airplane began to move, I immediately put on my rose gold headphones and played a song that would coincide with takeoff. Call me dorky, but I…

Opposites
Everyone has their opposite—there’s a night to day, a yin to yang, and a Chereen to Kristin. Like any opposing forces, my cousin Chereen and I came into the world around the same time—well okay she is ten months older than me (but close enough!). Anyway, from the moment we could talk, the two of…

Flashback Fashion: Nineties
The phrase “That was so twenty years ago” was so twenty years ago. It has gone out of style because trends from various decades are in once again! Recently, the nineties have made a comeback, and I for one am all for it! As a nineties kid, I have a claim to a wonderful era…

Out With the New, In With the Old
Thrifting is one of my favorite ways to shop because it’s a treasure hunt. None of the clothes are ever the same because rather than being mass-produced, they’re handpicked by storeowners, or in other words “chosen.” Before they were displayed in the store, these clothing items were worn by another person—sometimes even from a different…

Retrobe (Retro Wardrobe)
Here’s something I’ve discovered about my personal sense of style. It is pretty classic, but sometimes I’m willing to get a little gutsy with my look. If that means wearing an outfit that can either be taken as super trendy and unique or be borderline grandma, I’m more than okay with it. Sure I drink…

Collegiate Chic
According to the Merriam Webster Dictionary, the definition of “Nostalgia” is “pleasure and sadness that is caused by remembering something from the past and wishing that you could experience it again.” When I think of the term, my personal definition is just one word, three syllables: “Pepperdine.” It has been a whole month as of…

Beauty in the Blossoms
Where I come from, it doesn’t snow in the months leading up to Spring. However I do not mind it in the slightest, not when the ground is filled with blossom petals rather than ice. Nothing is more beautiful than coming home from college to aisles of orchards. When you look up, all you see…

Shine Bright
They say diamonds are a girl’s best friend, but not everyone can always have diamonds. Since sequins and rhinestones are the next best thing, why not go all out with both elements in your outfit? I am not a big sequins person in general—in fact I can normally be seen wearing blacks and pastels, but…

The Best Is Yet to Come
As I reflect on 2014, I realize that this blog was a huge part of it. I’d like to thank you all for reading my work; fashion brings me so much joy and I hope this platform about my personal fashion choices has brought you joy! I’ve always been in love with fashion: the art…

Start Spreading the News…New York, New York
I don’t know what it is about New York that makes a California girl like me swoon. Maybe it’s how the skyscrapers don’t just touch the sky, but reach for the stars. You can’t help but wonder if you can do the same. Or how Central Park is not just a park: it’s a forest.…
