Picture spam of one of my faves. This girl is absolutely gorgeous. But of course, I didn't really have to tell you that.

Beat the Heat

The weather here is getting unbearably hot to the point that shorts and a tank with Old Navy flip flops is more of a uniform than anything else. Not that there is really anything wrong with that ensemble. It's very practical. In fact, I am about to make that my daily uniform as well.

Metropark dress, DKNY jacket, Chanel heels, Elliot Lucca bag

But before I become more practical, I am hanging on to all the last jackets I can wear, while bearing the heat, which includes again this DKNY cargo jacket that I've been wearing year round. It's gotten to the point that I feel naked without it.

Off to see why there is so much hype surrounding Glee.

Slant

Three weeks too late, but better late than never, I post my few-and-far-in-between pictures at Slant Festival. I will say now that I am not at all a film/music festival junkie (only time I ever attended SXSW during the years I lived in Austin was when my brother, JP Chan, screened one of his films there), and I will probably never try to be. However, after that weekend, I now have a new appreciation for what independent musicians and film makers do.

The above pictures are taken inside the venue. Yes, they feature lots of graffiti art, raggedy ann dolls, and paintings that will make you think twice. I have to admit that I myself was a bit skeptical about the whole event at first, especially since the venue was in the sketchy part of town - not to mention, it being named Super Happy Fun Land. However, after watching a handful of films on one night, listening to Goh Nakamura's amazing vocals another night, and topping it off by attending PJ Raval's workshop the next day, I quickly became a fan of all the above.
