Dragon Fruit on my Head

For some reason, I think I fit right in with the HK crowd in this outfit. In any case, HK has definitely grown on me thanks to the yummy tropical fruits, warm weather (though I’m not a huge fan of the humidity), the night view, the ocean, the forests, noodles, and Dim Sum. By the way, many people are asking if my hair is a hair piece. Oh, the joy of seeing the expression on their faces upon being told that it’s actually part of me, as in my own hair. It isn’t as painful as it looks… Really.

Hong Kong has to be one of the most dynamic and exciting cities I’ve been to. Besides the interesting culture, I see mountains covered with lush forests to the right and an ocean to the left. Even the weather is quite dynamic- it rains cats and dogs one moment then it’s sunny the next thanks to its subtropical climate. My travel buddies Sam has been an amazing tour guide. I give her five stars! © 2012, Tomi. All rights reserved.

Drucilla is her name

Accidentally (and thankfully) came across this tunic at a concept store that I frequent. which is casual and chic in a way that’s unexpected and somewhat mysterious… and that’s exactly the reason why I love this piece. While it’s already amazing on its own, I notice that it’s important what type of shoes I wear with it because of its unique design. Introducing… Drucilla by Jeffrey Campbell. *Click the photos for larger images © 2012, Tomi. All rights reserved.

These have to be the cutest wedges I’ve ever owned. Just wish I didn’t have to feel/look like a giant in them. haha H&M button down, Diesel skinnies, Jeffrey Campbell Constant wedges © 2012, Tomi. All rights reserved.

People look at me like I’m from another planet

The wait is over. Introducing the new do. done at none other than Salon Justin (aka home) I’ve been meaning to do something unconventional to my half-bleached ombre-style hair as mentioned a few weeks ago on Facebook. It had been over six months since I had the hairstyle and not only was I seeking change, after cutting off the ends due to a damage a few months ago, I noticed that the ombre wasn’t so ombre anymore because the ends were where my hair was the lightest and also my favorite part of the hair. So in short, it was time for change- something new, bright, and crazy. Was initially going to go Lavender but after realizing that the color doesn’t come out as vibrant on hair that’s not naturally blonde or bleached multiple times, I decided to go with more brilliant and rich colors (notice it’s plural!!).
