Floral Bomber & Leathers

April 13, 2017 by arden cho in photoshoot, fashion

Ran around downtown Los Angeles with some friends from out of town a few weeks ago. We shot some photos and video, will be sharing the rest tomorrow! I LOVE these pants, I actually bought them over 5 years ago! I think they're so cool because of the double layer waist, almost looks like I'm wearing leather boxers under these black slacks.

I got this floral bomber in Hong Kong a couple years ago. No label and no brand, would you believe it was less than $25 dollars? I wasn't sure if I loved it, I didn't get to try it on. See, that's the catch of these street markets in Hong Kong. It's cheap, but you're not allowed to try anything on and it's mostly One Size Fits All. Which is the worst, because it definitely "doesn't fit all". Shopping can be discouraging enough as is when clothes just don't seem to fit right or work with your body type. I actually ended up giving away about half of the things I bought in Hong Kong to my friends, my loss, their gain! Most of the pieces were too small. If this happens to you, don't let it bother you! You're definitely not alone. 

Do you guys miss my purple locks? I almost don't recognize myself anymore. 

So for this second look, I just changed my outerwear. You'll see more of the look in my video tomorrow but I love how you can completely flip the vibe and feel of a look with a simple change of jacket. 

Same basic crop tank and pants, I just layered it with a sweater vest and a leather jacket from All Saints. 

I love layering with my leather jackets but sometimes the sleeves feel too stuffy, so vests are always a go to for me, almost looks like a scarf. And as usual, a leather back pack and sneakers. 

I love my patent leather sneakers with this outfit because it gives this fairly monochromatic look a nice little pop! I've had this Alexander Wang backpack for years as well, love all the exposed zippers. 

Will be posting a new video tomorrow including these looks and more! Stay tuned.
