DIY Bandeau - Q2HAN
This simple white bandeau top has been one of our favorite DIY projects this summer. It's comfortable to wear for the beach, picnic, yacht and BBQ parties or to simply survive through the heat wave (especially those living in the sunny side of California). We used half a yard of nylon fabric with generous amount of stretch. Watch our YouTube tutorial video for a better assistance! xx

Fashion Week San Diego: Culinary Couture

White Dresses - Jack Meets Kate
Several weeks ago, we attended Fashion Week San Diego's 2nd Annual Culinary Couture event at Harrah's Resort Southern California where we had the privilege to enjoy six courses of meals inspired by the world's top fashion capitals (Bangkok, Monaco, Buenos Aires, San Diego, Tokyo, and Barcelona) created by five of San Diego's finest chefs. Despite the fact that we're dedicated vegans, we were eager to attend the event again this year since we didn't want to miss out on another artsy and creative presentation of each courses, and the energy among people who shared the same interests and passion towards FWSD. Qwon and I wore this white turtleneck crop top with matching skirt and a crisscross dress from Jack Meets Kate's SS 2016 collection. They were the perfect head-to-toe white outfits that helped us stand out from the dark rich mystic purple setting of the event. One of the comfiest body-con dresses we've ever worn, and loved the grommet details around the waist and the skirt. 

There's only three weeks left for FWSD's first night of designer runway shows, but sadly we won't be able to attend this year as we are heading back to Korea for good in two days. Regardless, it has been a pleasure supporting FWSD and our support continues wherever we go (perhaps, we'll be back for the show next year!). What we admire the most about FWSD is its dynamism and endless support of emerging designers and entrepreneurs from both local and around the world. It's not just a week of runway shows like NYFW, but it's a whole year of events; they are unstoppable. And it has been a pleasure being part of such an amazing team during our stay in California and will continue to be a pleasure.

KOHL'S: Be Yourself

Head to Toe - Kohl's
To dress to impress, or to dress to be yourself, that is the question. We would love to say that outfit does not matter, but it's the inside that counts. But in reality, especially in the world of high school that marks the beginning of an epidemic of identity crisis and social pressure, it is not! Let's be honest. As a young teenager, we mostly judge our peers by their looks- what they wear and how they look. We establish ourselves through prestige: wearing the latest trend and having the right possessions. Subsequently, by finding common things, we could at least easily start a conversation and relate to one another. We admit that we've done it ourselves, and are definitely not proud about it. 

But now that we've become more mature, thinking back, what truly matters is to feel comfortable in what you wear and simply be yourself. Yes, be yourself. The term might be the most overused advice of all time, but it is the absolute truth. So, we partnered with Kohl's to build our personality piece by piece via different styles of garments and accessories starting with a black t-shirt as a foundation piece. We went for an overall cozy looks by playing with denims, checkered prints, and cardigan, topped off with comfy ankle boots for each.

Sometimes, ask yourself whether or not any of what you're wearing are true to yourself. Stop pretending or wishing you were someone else, because you never know who might be looking at you right now wishing they were you. Good luck on back to school & remember to be yourself! xx

JORD Watch: Cora Series

Wristwatch - JORD / Top- Jack Meets Kate
Autumn took too long to get here in California. But with slightly cool breeze passing through the curtains during the morning and the need to have light cardigan on shoulders during the evening, it's safe to say that autumn has finally arrived. This Cora watch in Koa & Rose Gold from Jord also contributes to the arrival of autumn. We love this finely grained golden Koa wood wrist with rich rose centerpiece that almost mimics the beautiful fall sunset. We were definitely impressed by the quality and uniqueness of "wood-made" wristwatch. It's such a staple accessory to add a little personality to the outfit. I paired up the watch with this gorgeously printed light top from Jack Meets Kate's S/S 2016 collection, skinny jeans, and my trusty old black ankle boots that practically goes with any fall outfits I wear. Happy September all xx
