What I wore on Chinese New Years...who else is a dragon like me? I love this cape which simultaneously makes me feel like a superhero and a 1930's movie star (not to mention goes with every piece in my closet). I bought these bracelets for the Rococo shoot and they apparently blend seamlessly into my wardrobe. I'm currently bumming until a new chapter starts with a new school (hopefully) in September. "Bumming" as in researching full time as a temp at my old research lab before heading over to intern at Marie Claire in NYC. Getting paid to do biotech research, participate in 80's Friday Pandora station sing-a-longs, and make jokes across the bench? Don't mind if I do.
PS. I'm looking for an apartment in Manhattan for July 2012. If any of you have leads please email!
PPS. Happy Chinese New Years!!

Lovely photos, particularly #5! In awe of your texture mixing skills - this is airy, sweet and sophisticated all at once. :)

I love the mixture of chiffon and feathers coupled with the delicate accessories. It feels very pearlescent for CNY which seems fitting as something unique and pretty. Hope you have a good rest of the week! xx
