Since my school hasn't started yet, I have been just hanging around a lot in Santa Monica and Beverly Hills area and I found some amazing shops! Brandy Melvill http://www.brandymelvilleusa.com/ is pretty loose, easy to wear, and comfortable materials. The whole style is kind of 80' like the cutting and shape but the color is very simple. I can't wait to wear the tanktops and a hat I got from Brandy Melvill when it's really summer time! Unlike the Brandy Melvill, BCBGMARXAZRIA http://www.bcbg.com/home/index.jsp is more like high brand. My eyes are always caught by the styling displayed at the window of the stores. However, because I'm too short, I'm not gonna look good with those amazing dresses in BCBG :( Oh speaking of the size, I made the tank shirts because when I bought it I felt ok but next time I worn it, it looked bad on me. It was too big so I just cut it and made it no sleeves.


And if you can notice, I made it trapezoid shape, not just like normal tank shape. I was gonna cut a little more at length but maybe later. I got some ideas of making skirt and swimwear but it's not ready yet to be designed so.....I'll update when it's done!

Fun shopping at H&M

What's good about LA

 Tanning at the beach with Geraldine.

I have many reasons why I chose LA and I'm gonna tell you some of them......The biggest reason is obviously its weather. The weather matters the most in my life and the weather here is just AWESOME. I'm so happy every day just feeling the sun and you can go to the beach very easily here. I mean the ocean is right there so. and you can even enjoy shopping after the beach. Isn't it perfect? People are very friendly too! Another reason I like about LA is that you can get healthy stuff easily. There are many caffe and restaurants which have healthy menu like Jamba Juice has fruits smoothy, blast, tea, etc that doesn't contain bad chemical. If it's Tokyo, it's hard to find that kind of place or you have to make it yourself! Oh I love where I live!

Maasa needs to detox her body and mind....

http://www.pressedjuicery.com/
When I was in Japan, I heard about juice detox from friends and some magazines and I always wondered if it really works. Friend and I were talking aboit tis but we concluded it won't work because as long as you are a human, you have to have food to eat to keep you healthy so I ended not to try it. However, I found Pressed Juicery at US magazine and I felt this juice detoxing is a little different from what I heard. What I heard about juice detoxing was to drink only organic lemonade for some days like a week. Only lemonade! it was very obvious to me that I wouldn't succeed and it wouldn't work because even when you are detoxing you have to have some nutritions from vegetables or protein. So I didn't even want to try that one but you can get vitamins and nutritions from Pressed Juicery and they can also give you delicious different flavor of juices so you wouldn't be bored compared to drink only lemonade!
So, from the next day I returned from crazy trip in Vegas, I started this juice detoxing. Actually it is pretty good. They are delicious and I have 6 different juices so hey keep me busy drinking them and a lot of water at the same time. Also, because I was freezing all day in Vegas I am sick now so that doesn't make me think about food. Very good situation to do this. I am trying to go to the power yoga class today to get extra health but seems I'm real sick so.... If it worked well, I want to do that once in a while :)

"What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas"

"Let's go to Vegas!" in Santa Monica 3rd street @ cafe, my girl, Geraldine flashed to party hard in Vegas. Next weekend, we were partying tight at couple of clubs in Vegas lol. Vegas was awesome place just as it is supposed to. Because it is a "party, crazy place", I didn't expect to see beautiful view or any classy buildings there but look at the pictures like Bellagio hotel Vegas wasn't only a place to get wasted! I definitely loved those hotels and buildings like LV, Gucci, and the Marquee!
As soon as we arrived at hotel, MGM grand, we changed dresses and went out to the brilliant city of Vegas. We were so quickly to get tipsy and it didn't take time for us to yell lol
At 2nd day, something that happens only in Vegas happened to me too! smh but I would say "it was a good experience" hahaha Vegas Vegas Vegas.......

Beverly Hills

Can you believe that we walked all the way down to my place which is more than 5k away from Beverly Hills area ? We walked a lot today and I hope that burned all calories that I gain today haha. Beverly Hills is very beautiful like pricy. Every time I go out with this my girl, Geealgine, I feel I'm a kid because like today we were supposed to meet at Beverly center but somehow I was just waiting for her in a different area of Beverly Hills and she ended up coming to find me. She always wait for a bus with me, too like a mother and her little daughter experiencing to get on a bus for the first time lol Oh yeee she is like a older sister or smt ;p
