Teppanyaki night

T by Alexander Wang t-shirt, thrifted leopard shorts, Chloe booties, La Dama rosary, Nepal bangles

I finally let the boyfriend take pictures of me. Hooray!

I'm wearing this great lip/ cheek tint by Julie Hewett that I received in one of my gift bags from the lovely people at Coach. The color is called Peachie.

New York has left me feeling a bit underwhelmed. Thank god for the free booze. Colt 45 all night baby. London Fashion Week is coming up and I'm so excited to see something with a bit more... flair? Personality? MAKE ME EXCITED TO GET DRESSED.

I was definately disappointed

Youngest Indie said...

Oh, is that why your face and pose look so different! I mean this in the best way possible. So pretty.

Jacquie said...

yayaaaayyy!!!

come to Lahndaaannn - ave a cuppa wiv tha good old queenie and get a bag o' fish n chips fer arftas!

*i do realise i am completely perpetuating the stereotype that all Londoners know/love/have met the queen and all indulge in British Activities semi regularly...

you'll love it, they're celebrating 25 years of LFW so, Burberry Prosum will be showing here; i think dame Vivienne should be too

Your make up and your braid are so BOMB. haha Love this look! I agree with the comment above as well, you capture the JP street urchin look really well. :X I'd think you're JP if I ever saw you on the street. That is after I run up to you and bother you for a picture. *_*

I can't tell what your ethnicity is? Are you Asian (you seem it when your hair is black) or Hispanic (you seem it when your hair is light)? It's no big matter. I'm just curious.

geisharock said...

I've missed those chloe boots, they always tie an outfit together perfectly. Are you coming personally to LFW or are you just looking out for pictures online? xoxo

Emma Skye said...

Wow! You look so beautiful. Love the shoes and the piled up bracelets.

invasionista said...

ha, tell your boyfriend he did a great job. eventually, i will let my hubby take some shots but first he will need some practice first. i can usually tell which photos he took because there will be a finger or two in the picture. :)

Jaeve + Things said...

the bf did a fabulous job. love the lighting and the outfit and your hair!

sara said...

you look amazing, but not exactly "glam." still, love it!

Ashley said...

you've got to have your boyfriend shoot you more often. he's actually very good.

it's so interesting to see your style constantly evolving without ever being irrelevant. some people out there are on some wacky shit man.

Maeko said...

I'd say it was a success, night photography included. I love the braid. Photo two is cheeky and sultry at the same time. You kind of remind me of a manga character, but which I don't know.

Amy K said...

Lulu you look even more beautiful than usual in these pictures. I have to say you are one of my favorite bloggers because you always seem so sincere in your posts.

Anonymous said...

Your braid looks very similar to A.Wang's TERRIBLE new collection. Hm, what gives????

Friend in Fashion said...

Looking lovely - great hair + makeup! :)

lulu said...
