So Tres Chic

This Week In: For the Tea Gardens Pt. 2

Hello, everyone!

Why, it’s been a while since I was here last…I’m currently working on some job-related projects, and since I took up style photography on a more serious endeavor, I’m considering revamping and reformatting my site into a more photography-friendly showcase. More on that later. You’ll see if it happens.

Sometimes I keep an archival of photos from a while ago that I didn’t chance to post. Well, now it’s May, and I’ve been visiting the gardens more, so I dusted off some previously-unseen photos from last spring…

This time, we’re doing a continuation of the Tea Gardens look that I did several years ago, except I choose a different hairstyle and location.


I’m wearing:

Cheongsam blouse — Yesstyle

Shorts — Papaya

Belt — Forever 21

Heels — Carlos Santana

When reviewing my pictures, it struck me that I look like an older stereotypical image of a Russian career woman. Isn’t that funny?! I love eyeshadow and I use it sometimes, but maybe with all that getup I’ll have to tone it down a little while I still look young. Hahah.

Still, I love my outfit because it matches the May weather perfectly: not too hot, not too cool. And the cheongsam perfectly matches the Japanese setting. I wear this blouse all the time, actually. I want to present more looks with it in the future. There’s just something so timeless and yet so modern about it!

Now speaking of Asian-themed attire, here more suggestions for the gardens. The model looks so innocent and ethereal here…

…and yes, the clothes are on my wish list…but I’m responsible and I am on a budget…so for now, I will just wait. 🙂
