BONDED

(top + skirt - h&m; harness - taobao; "Ambush" boots - topshop)
So I may or may not have gotten this harness from a sex shop, you don't have to know. All you have to know is that I finally found one that I love AND can afford (it was 16 CAD). I love that it spruces up my uniform by adding such a punch to it.

Varsity

(jacket + bag + ksubi inspired sunglasses - taobao; jeans + shirt - h&m; boots - topshop) 

I'm really sorry for these grainy photos! I left my camera on ISO 1000 and didn't notice it until I put the photos on my computer. On another note, I've been wanting to get a varsity jacket for the longest time but couldn't find one I liked until I started looking in the men's section on Taobao. This one is slightly oversized (which I love) with leather sleeves (also love), so it wouldn't be more perfect.

Manners

(dress, bag, "raybans" - taobao; skirt - h&m; boots - topshop)

I had bought this Givenchy "inspired" dress off Taobao a couple months ago, but since I'm a little tall for a Chinese person, it's too short as a dress on me and too long to work as a half tucked in shirt (i.e. my favourite thing to wear). I had no clue how to wear it until I got this high waisted skirt from h&m (another favourite to wear). It's great to wear for a transitional period like this in Wuxi where it's super rainy (hence the boots), but still kind of humid and hot.

VARIATIONS ON A THEME

(coat, floral pants - h&m; metal collar and rings - taobao; alexander wang julia replica - taobao; shirt - thrifted, satchel - taobao)
I've been keeping busy with a little travelling here and there, but I've really been enjoying the gorgeous weather out lately and thus being a lot more adventurous with what I'm wearing! Floral for spring...nothing for creative, but for me it's always less frilly and girly and more business.

UNIFORM

(jeans + sweater - h&m; bag + coat + chocker + raybans - taobao; shoes - converse via taobao)

I'm back! I finally got my hands on a tripod and remote, as well as a place for taking decent photos. I've been wearing about the same things over and over again (I've turned into one of those people! Blergh!) so here is my uniform for this gloomy spring we've been having in Wuxi.

New In

Some new things I bought, preparing for summer...
I know, I know...less haul posts and more outfit posts! Don't worry, I'm working on it! 

I'm in love with these semi-sandals, even though I'm much too fat for them (working on that). And I really appreciate how my new sunglasses folds for compact carrying.
