Happy Fourth of July!

Xiang flew into Seattle this morning and we've already been to two parties. Now we're calling it an early night after a day of fireworks and festivities so we can get up super early for a full day of hiking and shooting on Mt. Rainier. It will be a beautiful day so watch out for more gorgeous pictures and great fashion to come!


Hope everyone had a spectacular Fourth of July! Here's a bit of how our's went down:

"If you are looking for an alternative of wearing american flag patterned stuff to celebrate July 4th, then consider working with red, white and blue color palette. Pick one primary color and add the other two by accessorizing! This also makes your outfit more wearable for the other 355 days of the year :)"

"I tried to pick out three outfits that would work for events that are more formal, casual, or somewhere in-between. I do like the cheesiness of the american flag patterned clothing. Only on July 4th can you really pull off such overt patriotism and still look fabulous."
