Here are some more street style pictures I took on recent outings in the city. Tell me what you think :) Today it was so friggin hot outside I thought I was going to pass out any second. Plus, I had to walk around the entire day, first to get to an interview for that job I really want (thank you all so much for the well wishes!) and then shopping with my friend Mitzy. Oh and I also got a new haircut! Pictures soon :)
AA outer thingy and shorts. belle sandals. h&m top. raybans.
I tend to under-accessorize during summer, so I make up for that by wearing strong colors and creating interesting shapes and silhouettes. I got this jacket thing from AA a while ago, and it's super flowy and a perfect addition to any outfit. Anyway, I have super exciting news: I'm going to an interview for this internship I'm dying to have! I'll give you more details once I actually land the job, but I'm so excited! For once, things that I love to do but are useless in school can finally be put to use! So so excited :) Oh btw I haven't forgotten about that video post I promised ages ago. I'm going to film it later on today.
H&M fashion against aids tee. mango bag. rayban sunnies. h&m bow and skirt.
These are one of my new pairs of Raybans I got recently, and I love them so much! I'm wearing them with my geometric tee, since they both have that black and white contrast going on, and I added a bow since I'm random like that. That day, I met up with the lovely DC, who I met at American Apparel a while ago. We had chilled drinks at the place off Neubaugasse, talking about guys, polaroids and everything in between. Coincidentally, we had quite similar outfits, which was entertaining :) Oh and SCHOOL IS OFFICIALLY OUT! Yesterday I was at the Donau Insel Festival here in Vienna. Horrible bands and horrible people but it was quite fun. That and so so so many other things that are making me grin ear to ear right now. I love you all!
p.s. the portrait in my last post was of Natasha Poly! Congrats to Mary Jane girl for guessing correctly :)
Another white dress I've fallen in love with: this white mini dress is absolutely perfect for warmer days, when you don't feel like dressing overly much. Only problem is that the warmer days don't seem to want to come to vienna. So pieces like these are going to stay put in my closet for now. The Tod's ballerinas were originally 110 euros but I got them for much less; score!
These are some snaps from my art exhibition. The whole thing went pretty good and I'm really happy about how it turned out :) For next year, I'm going to have to create a lot more pieces, but for now I'm really proud of these. Btw can you guess who the charcoal portrait is of?
I got this beautiful white dress in the mail recently and it's absolutely perfect for summer. The details in the back are especially refreshing and intriguing. Ahh I love absolutely love this dress! Mrs. Tian aka my mom the photographer helped me snap these photos. On another note: 7-0 for portugal? Kind of a harsh blow for the north koreans. And I thought germany's 4-0 victory was worthy of respect. Spain was so great! I was kind of disappointed that Torres missed 3 perfect chances for a goal, but ah well. And ouch for the guy who got kicked in the buttons...looked painful!

I've been wearing very so-and-so outfits lately, so once again here's a jumble of photos I haven't posted. I've received quite a few packages and gifts lately, so I'll try to photograph them for you. Ahh where is the summer? It's cold and window and frost-bitey here. Good thing the world cup's on - nothing better on a windy and cold sunday than cookies and hot chocolate in front of the tv being entertained by slowmotion replays of men sweating profusely with funny face expressions!
Just something simple and unfussy for a long day at school. And what is up with all my hand gestures? In every single picture, I seem to be practicing sign language. The drawing is by the lovely Camilla - thank you so much girl :)

Just some snaps I found in my folders that I wanted to share with you. All my assignments are done and I'm finally free! And today after school, my mom decided to award me for being finished and bought me a pair of black raybans. Can't wait until it becomes sunnier so I can wear them out :)
Remember this guy from my latest Vienna Streetstyle post? Well, I was in the city the other day and I came across an ad:
Yes that's him right there. He's called Simon Rusch - What a great face. Hey, maybe I should try my luck at model scouting! I already stalk people with pretty outfits anyway. Why not add "pretty face" to the list?
These are some slightly over-retro photos of me. I look like some 90s kid obsessed with Full House. And btw, for those of you who asked, I'm chinese :) I want to thank all of you for the really sweet comments in my last couple of posts. I really want to reply to all of you but I have so much to do - this week is packed with work. I have my art exhibition tomorrow, my english oral presentation and then I also have to start and finish laying out the school magazine all within the next three days. This is crazy! And i thought exams were over for good. Anyway, enjoy your day!
h&m blazer and shirt. vintage sneakers. men's sunglasses.
After school on thurday, I hung around museums quartier with my favourite korean, shopping, taking photos and enjoying the 30+ degrees viennese weather. Afterwards we met up with members of our yearbook team and had dinner at Dots, this amazing sushi place. Please excuse my dazed and dead expression. I was running on literally 4 hours of sleep. I managed to snap a couple streetstyle photos during that day too, so look out for the next batch! Oh and I have some interesting news regarding that as well, which I'll tell you in my next post. For now, you can laugh at my weird eyebrows in the first picture (it looks like I only have the beginning bit - I swear i have normal shaped eyebrows though! haha).
Two hours and a lot of magazine breaks later, the new layouts for the KNEON site and this page are finally done! I thought about changing the header, but I was too attached this it to use another one. Anyway, I've got to go back to the soccor game now - Korea is winning!
zara dress. fedora from beijing. mom's shoes. h&m tights and jacket thing.
Okay, so I know I shouldn't be complaining since I wanted the sun so badly for so long. But this is ridiculous. I come home, get a cold shower and 5 minutes out of it I'm in desperate need of ice, icy water and ice cream. I might consider turning nocturnal during the summer. On another note, only two weeks of school left! I'm so excited for everything that's going to happen. And next week I'm planning another photoshoot for KNEON (first issue will be out in july) where I'll try to take some backstage photos to show you all. Enjoy the sun!
edit: a lot of you mentioned the knot - i had to tie up my dress since it was waay too long for that day, but i untied it when i walked around haha
Meet Sophia. Half-british, witty and all around talented headbanger. These are some snaps I took of her before going out. She has such a great spirit and wears my dress better than I do. On a more painful note: my feet are covered in blisters now because I wore a new pair of sandals and walked around the city the entire day. I know, I'm such a genius. Now I'm worrying how I'm going to get to school tomorrow since I sure as hell can't walk.
