Hello Everyone!

I realize that it has been far too long since I last updated le blog and I think I might have made a few certain someones angry by my posts, or rather, my lack of posts. I sincerely apologize but what can a girl do? From AP classes (including the nightmare that is AP Bio), debate tournaments, FBLA conferences,tutoring (I need dough), to trying to have some kind of a social life (hahahahaha), I barely have time to breathe! Thank goodness it's Thanksgiving Break!!!

OK. I understand that it's no excuse. Sorry, again. 

Anyways, last week I decided to dress up a bit for my yearbook photo for FBLA. We (the FBLA officers) decided to go for a Black and White color scheme to look extra professional.

If you know me then you should know that 9 times out of 10, I'm dressed mono-chromatically. My go-to colors are definitely black, white, and blue and I like to accessorize here and there with some gold or silver jewelry. So when Josephine (the FBLA prez) told me the theme I was so excited. Black and white is right up my alley. 

As the weather was finally starting to cool down (California Fall weather is around 65-70 degrees) I decided to bust out this rad pleather skirt from UO that has recently become a new addition to my wardrobe. I wanted to contrast the toughness of the leather with something girly so I went with a lace top. In order to keep warm a bit I threw on a pair of tights (which surprisingly make a huge difference) and a black waffle knit cardigan. 

I hope you enjoyed the post and Happy Thanksgiving!Give a listen to U.HU.RU. This beat always makes me want to nod my head and drink lattes (actually I'm always up for a latte).Expect a Black Friday Haul and a possible food-baby-proof outfit post soon. Or kind of soon. Whatever. You get what I mean. 

Until Next Time...

HI MY NAME IS

Introductions

I thought I'd make my very first blog post to my personal style blog more or less an introduction to my suburban, tomboyish street style. My name is Crystal J. Tsang, an atypical 16 year old high school student living in sunny southern California. While I put a lot of focus on my academic life (like any other ambitious teenager), I have a secret passion for fashion that is becoming a little less secretive. Enjoy.

Wardrobe Staples

One thing you should know about me is that I am absolutely infatuated with all things denim and all things white, especially white t-shirts. I probably wear a white t-shirt at least 3 times a week. Therefore, pairing this thrifted denim button down with a classic white tee is a no brainer. 

Add a dash of edge with all the leather accessories, a sprinkle of femininity with the pale pink beaded necklace, a pair of simple black booties, a chinky smile and taa-daahh you have a Crystal-esque outfit.
