A Mixture of Everything


Greetings, Internet.
I haven't updated in a year. But I'm back with a few photos to throw out here so here we go! 


  I recently (7 months ago) got myself a new lens for my DSLR. It's the AF-S NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G DX from Nikon. The first photo I took with it is of my pet hedgehog which can be seen above. Probably one of my best investments in a while. A little too bright sometimes but it works wonderfully under low light condition so I really love it. I love to go to aquariums to take photos so it the best lens I could get at a low price. All photos on this post are taken with this lens so I hope it interests you into looking into this lens! 



Photo taken at Enoshima Aquarium. One of the best aquariums in Japan. Follows the model of Montrey Aquarium in California. 


Cats love my coat. Love the blur. 



Some photos to remind myself that I meant to run a fashion blog... Photo was taken on my trip to Kamakura in October (I think). It's so much colder in Japan at the moment. I wore all Zara except for my shoes from Cole Haan and my backpack from Yoshida & Co., Ltd.


This year, I made Osechi with my mom like last year. Except this year, we used these authentic lacquer box given by our grandmother. 


Outfit on my birthday! Photo taken at Setagaya Art Museum.  

I'm wearing 

Black leather down jacket - Max&Co.
Green Ultralight down jacket - Uniqlo
Olive Skinny faux leather pants - Zara
Flower print shirt - Zara
Black leather combat boots - Staccato
Backpack - Yoshida & Co., Ltd


A little over exposed in the back ground but I wanted to share this. I found this stone lantern in the garden of Nezu Museum in Tokyo. A beautiful mixture of nature made and man made. Nezu Museum is a great place to be if you're interested in Japanese traditional art. The Garden there alone is beautiful and they have a cute cafe right beside it!

This was a brief overview/photo diary of my life in Tokyo the past few months. More posts to come in the next few months because I'm having my spring break. Trying to make more time for updating and getting my life straight! I hope you enjoyed this post (:
