goodbye 2011, hello 2012. despite finding the whole reminiscing of yesteryear to be sorta cheesy, I will do exactly that now. just cuz i like hearing my own thoughts….and it is cathartic in a way. 2011 meant cutting my hair off. moving to china. moving out of china. finally moving back to china. for love. now i’m in paris with him walking around a city i haven’t visited since i was 15 and reveling in how strange life is. how awesome it is.
here we go. new year.
wearing romwe sweater; urban outfitter leather pants (similar pair here) ; Zara jacket and shoes; H&M hat (similar one here)

This is a beautiful post, not just for the pictures but because of the writing.
I’ve been a follower for a while, lost track of keeping tabs when work became crazy, but I decided to cut my hair today and thought of you. I totally remember the day you posted about the cut! It was one of the best beauty decisions I think you’ve ever made! It looks so high fashion and fits you perfectly. I’m going to cut 15 inches today. We’ll see how it goes.
To the new year, better me!
Best,
Alexandra

You have a nice sense of fashion,but girl, that hair color is atrocious! I’m only being honest. It does not suit your skin color at all! It washes you out. I suggest you dye your hair darker!
What’s this obsession with blond hair that you and Rumi seem to not get enough of?
Love your blog!!!!! You are a beautiful girl but your hair color is so WRONG.
