My BFF's birthday celebrated at Club JJ, Hyatt Hotel.

We loved the beautiful outdoor lounge by the swimming pool.

::HanGang

we went to han gang swimming pool!

I think we only lasted 3hrs because it was sooo crowded and burning hot.

There are several of these swimming pools and tanning spots along the Hangang river, which runs across Seoul city. The pools get very popular during the summer because they are the only pools located within the city.

It's funny because only one side of the pool is the river and the other sides are surrounded by apartments.

I discovered Eryn brinie store in Soho, New York.

I don't know much about the brand / designer, and many of her styles are too girly and feminine for me to wear.

However, I love her basic items like boxy jersey shirts, tunics, mini dresses,

which carry interesting subtle details and textures...

::The Secret::

This is the Secret I was talking about on my first post! One of my favourite book which I try to be very serious about...

The basic philosophy is "Law of Attraction."

A strong belief and desire will make your dreams come true! I like the fact that this book is not based on any religion and includes many true stories from very well known people.

I refered this book to many of my friends and some of them are amazed while others think its stupid...

I think it's worth a try! and I think I do have several positive results... What are your thoughts?

This is the official website for those of you who have not heard of this book/dvd. http://www.thesecret.tv/

::Dainty silver wings::

Woobee, when he was a baby!

Meet Woobee! I'll say one of the best decision I have ever made was adopting Woobee into my life. We met at the pet store on Lexington avenue last July and I couldn't resist his smile! I thank him for giving me countless reasons to smile every moment. His 2nd b.day is coming up this month!

:::My very first:::

so...here it is! my very first posting. I'm totally new to this...but I do have countless fashion related ideas, inspirations, my own work as well as anything personal...

I would like to dedicate to this blog!

To introduce myself, I graduated Parsons school of design, New York in Sp.08
Since then, I've participated in Supima and NYU fashion shows with my apparel line "woomi" which are currently being sold at "Debut newyork" which is young designer boutique store in Soho. I've also done several freelance works and quit my first job after working fulltime for 4months when I realized my passion to sell my own stuff online and continue to support my apparel line.

This bridal feather flower head piece is my first listing on my Etsy shop, consists of natural white nagoire feathers with Swarovski crystals with wire comb.

although, it's been only a week since I started my Etsy shop,
and I only have 1 sale so far, I believe that my shop has a huge potential to grow! because I believe in the secret!(have we all read the book?)

If you are interested in any pieces or a custom order, convo me through my Etsy shop.
