How to Pull a Parisian Look
If I were to accidentally find myself on the streets of Paris, I don’t think I would have the slightest problem. I would easily blend in in those beautifully lined streets, taking random photos at every roadside coffee shop and monumental building.

My Flaws & I

When Kimonos Save the Day
They come in all shapes and sizes.
They are mostly of colourful prints and fabric making them versatile for so many occasions. One of the main ways we wear kimonos is as cover-ups.

#BWPSTAYCATION: Two Girls. One Night
They say travel turns one in to a story teller, but does distance matter?
