FUZZY ALL OVER


{furry coat via Korea, gifted furry vest, denim vest, H&M tan skinnies, 
TBA 5ONTHEDOT velvet wedges, neon satchel via Target, f21 necklace}

Sometimes all a gal needs is a little R&R with her mama to feel alright again. It also helps that this R&R happened over a gorgeous and delicious brunch at Liaison, a brunch so good it had me saying oui oui over and over again! Our relationship has grown so much in the last 1.5 years since I moved out for college and it's a great feeling to mend some fences that I never thought was possible. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I'd have the kind of mother-daughter relationship that consists of us chatting on the phone, in between lectures, about summer plans, friends, and Jeremy Lin (she LOVES him, like really). There are days where I feel like I'm the same person I was back in high school, and then I just think back to us, how we've grown, matured and learned from our mistakes, and I realize just how different I have become. Growing up is much more than what we can physically see and assess, sometimes it just sneaks up on you.

Now that I'm feeling all warm and fuzzy, we can ooh and aah at my fuzzy wuzzy jacket that traveled over 5000 miles with me from Korea. It is definitely one of the warmest and most gawked at item hanging in my closet. Adding on the neon satchel that has yet to leave my side and these amazing TBA burgundy wedges that my mother promptly dubbed "break-your-neck" shoes that I won from Solestruck (sorry FB friends for all the spam but thank you Solestruck!), I am one happy (and warm) camper. I love the mixture of velvet with the shagginess and the fuzzy sweater vest+ denim combo makes it completely me. Never thought I'd be one to try tan on tan but, hey, never say never right?

very lovely outfit of the day! i've been loving fuzzy sweaters/jackets lately as well. i think you found a great one. asian fashion is the best ^_^

wow i can relate so much.. i think what you said is very true. many times, it's easy for us to feel like we're still 'young' and 'same'..but of course we are not because we have grown as a person through our own experiences over the years.

i think there is nothing better than a good mother-daughter bond! ..lol i learn so much from my mom.. since of course she is older and has more experience in life about things..hence wisdom to share.

glad to hear your brunch was very rewarding! and yay another jeremy lin fan woot woot!!

keep in touch! <3
