college staples

My vacation in Taiwan was one of the best three weeks in my life. It made me realize how much I love the country. I now realize why my relatives refuse to move to the US. Life is so comfortable there. The cost of life, especially, is super low-cost. The Taiwan has such a sustainable, eco-friendly way of life. I truly admire that.

Anyway, it is time to return to reality. 

I will be off to college in three weeks. It is so nerve-wracking. Will I really be able to coexist with a roommate? Am I going to be crushed under the pressure of college work? In "less-important", materialistic aspect... What about my wardrobe?! I'm dwindling on closet staples. Lately, I've been really into simple solid tanks, tees, etc. with unique cuts/shape.
These Muji tees are ohh-so roomy, but have a feminine flair. The crewneck cut is perfect. This would be such a great shirt to throw on for lazy morning classes.
 I recently bought these trousers on sale. I've worn them a couple times already and I love them so much! They're actually the first pair of pants I own in which I can easily tuck my hands in the front pockets. That is a big plus.
Though I don't really consider this a staple, it is just too lovely of a dress to not share. The silhouette, color and texture is just so fantastic! It also comes in purple.
The Harley Davidson El Paso boot is such a dream, isn't it?
Beautiful shirt by Zara
And finally, this is probably one of the best shirts ever...A shirt you don't have to change out of when you wake up late on a school morning. Ahhh, life would be easy peasy with this shirt.

ZYGOTES

Doesn't this remind you of multiplying cells, developing zygotes, asexual reproduction?

Fall Inspiration 04

Oak black hood slouch jumpsuit
Bing Bang by Anna Sheffield gunmetal vivienne tiny studs

Oak taupe broom skirt
La Mer black silver multi-chain watch
Alexander Wang black tasha bandage heel

Oak NYC is one of the best high end stores here if your looking for closet staples. For example, their zip-up jumpsuit, I feel this is THE best lounge piece you will ever find. Just put on your underwear, this jumpsuit and maybe these shoes, and you'll be ready to step out for a day at the library, a walk to the deli, meet-up with some friends or whatever casual date. I also love how Oak matched up a maxi skirt and long johns. Great inspiration eh? Also, thinking about getting those Anna Sheffield studs as an early Christmas present for myself. I'm not exactly dangling-earring girl, but I seem to have an endless supply of dangling earrings. Studs, I feel, are right up my alley of practicality. Plus, the price tag is pretty reasonable.

Fall Inspiration 01

Reed Krakoff Fall 2010 Collection
I wish I had every piece from this collection in my wardrobe ASAP. From the front slit maxi skirts to the wide leg trouser pants to the shearling jackets and long, heavy coats, this minimal collection is perfection. If this collection was all you had in your closet and you were getting dressed blindly, you would probably still leave the house looking fine. It's foolproof!
Plus, this collection features many of my favorite colors--the whole khaki-military-muddy shabang.

FRINGE

I believe this is the lovely lady from STOP IT RIGHT NOW or Devon Aoki, as one reader said. In my defense, I did think it was Aoki at first, but decided to go with the STOP IT RIGHT NOW blogger.
I don't know! Maybe I'm just making excuses for this lame misinterpretation. I'M SORRY!!! My gosh... now I'm hysterical.
[edit: Okay I, without doubt, did over-react.]

Do you love her fringe jacket? It's so lust-worthy.


the cherry blossom girl has a lovely fringe jacket as well.

Lily Cole, one of my favorite models. I met her once at the MoMA. She's such a tall and beautiful lady.
