I had a conversation with my mom about how much she dislikes when someone says "all the best" for birthdays, holidays, etc. In her opinion wishes should be more personalized, showing that you know the person. She recently even started writing short poems on cards, I remember crying reading one of them.

I totally agree and I think the same thing applies to a "thank you." My boyfriend sent me flowers and this is what I wrote to say that they arrived:

"if I was going to imagine a dream bouquet of flowers, that’s what it would look like. Thank you for making my dreams come true - these big and small ones."

Black Dress and the Japanese Touch

Everyone who knows me closer knows about my Japanese obsession. I went to Japan twice and fell in love with their style and fashion. That is also why Betsey Johnson is one of my favorite designers - I think Tokyo when I see her bows and frills. It’s hard to dress like a Harajuku girl in New York but I do love adding some Harajuku touches to my outfits.

I’m wearing a Betsey Johnson black dress,

Gucci shoes,

Zara scarf,

Burberry purse,

Lucid New York Hoop Earrings,

fancy leggins/legwarmers I got in Japan.

I’m a fan of knee high socks, which I love wearing with boots and a skirt and these fancy legwarmers are a great summer alternative. I wish I had got a pair in every color!
