Hello from Japan!
I flew in last night to visit my sister for the week before I head down to my parent’s house for Christmas. It was kind of a last minute trip meaning I had to pack my winter essentials and finish up a lot of loose ends at work before our holiday break.
I have not had a chance to take any photos yet, but I managed to take two outfit photo posts last week in spite of all the madness. This post features a sweater that used to belong to my sister. Before leaving to study in Japan for the year, she cleaned out her entire closet and gave me two huge bags to either sell or donate. I donated a bit, listed some items for sale on Poshmark, and I kept a few pieces. I love the stripes, shape, and sparkle it has. It adds a lot of interest to an all black outfit.
I love how there is symmetry with the asymmetrical striped cardigan and the architecture of the building behind us. Armando has some pretty great skills and I love how he has an eye in making a picture just a little bit more interesting. I am hoping he can let me convince him to be the one behind the lens and feature his personal style. He is claiming more space in our closet with some great sweaters that I might just have to borrow as it gets colder in the Bay Area. 
It is also pretty cold here in Tokyo, and I hope to share a post soon of what I am wearing here. I am also interested in sharing what I packed (in a smaller suitcase than last time) for a week and what I would have done differently. Stay tuned for food photos on my instagram account as well!
