A Rose by Any Other Name


A very good friend of mine is getting married in the end of August in Portland. I am one of the bridesmaids and Jen is her wedding photographer. The past weekend I was in Portland for the bachelorette party and Jen took some sweet sweet photos of the girls. Other than the bachelorette party and bridal shower, Jen and I spent some extra days together indulging Portland's delicious food, ginger flavored cocktails, and of course the privilege of tax-free shopping.

I do not wear white on white often (or ever), but this exception is made for the romantic summer at Rose Garden in the Rose City. (Rose City is one of Portland's nicknames where the Rose Festival is held annually every June). Those shorts are actually given to me by my friend Michelle at our clothing swap event. I am definitely a fan of high-waisted shorts. (Check out a previous post featuring AA high waisted shorts in a chillier day outfit). They are very easy to wear; simply tuck in a loose blouse on top, pair with some chic flats or heels, and voila, a casual but sexy outfit. You can dress it up by accessorizing like I did with the neon bracelet.

PS: Stayed tuned for Jen's floral shorts outfits also shot at the Rose Garden!

In the Mood for Simplicity


Black and white are two colors that never goes out of style. I am also a huge fan of geometric patterns. these two shirts from Wildfox just fit into the category of bring simple but not ordinary.
Jen did a post a couple days ago on her lazy day dress. these two shirts are definitely my lazy day go-to: super soft and comfortable. Its easy to throw them on and pair with some simple leggings and flats. Here i want to try wearing the american apparel lace shorts out, so i layered with a pair of sheer stockings.
