When I went for my first dress fitting, the head seamstress mistook me for a fresh grad applying for a job at the atelier ๐Ÿ˜‚ probably because I showed up in overalls and alone. My wedding dress was a custom from @fuchsia_lane, a modified design I asked for featuring fabrics I picked out. I was not interested in a traditional white wedding dress and that blue lace was a love at first sight situation. Iโ€™d wanted a qipao collar with some modern trappings and more leg room to tromp around in and this dress did exactly all those things while also offering some sexy back ;) To match my collar, Cedricโ€™s custom navy three piece suit, made in HK by this ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ‘Œ Indian-owned tailoring company, also featured a mandarin collar. Additionally, Cedric & I wore matching necklaces from @rongdesigns, ft upcycled wood, in complementary designs that I requested. They turned out spectacular and now I wear both necklaces casually haha... (by contrast, my earrings cost 50hkd from a shop somewhere in HK and my shoes were on sale for 35cad ๐Ÿคช) I was bestowed the honour of dressing my whole family and my dadโ€™s suit was a tailored set I picked out for him in Taiwan, and my mommaโ€™s outfit was a mix and match embroidered shirt / pants also from @fuchsia_lane ๐Ÿ˜Œ I will conclude this oversharing with the fact that my family is very good looking. #jaziimun #wedding
One of my favourite photos that @janicecyli took on my wedding day. It was a check-in moment, AND a check out moment ;) coz hot damn i looked amaaaaazing ๐Ÿ˜Œ // on another note, we had an unplugged wedding and so thereโ€™s not many photos available on social media. i also asked for it to be documented only in analogue so the photos are precious, since not all of them were successful. Itโ€™s been almost a year and Iโ€™m still reorganizing and sorting content. Would ppl like to see more / hear more about how cedric & i did our wedding? Lmk in the comments pls.
On the spring equinox, @july_may gifted me a mangosteen. m a n g o s t e e n. ๐Ÿฅบ

Learning how to work hard play hard and rest hard with the seasons. Itโ€™s hard ๐Ÿ˜‚ balance is hard. how does the world manage?

been creating things while stressing and writing and stressing about writing, then stressing about everything / my creating things will be revealed once springs fully greets us / my other things will hopefully be calm by then. ์ž ์‹œ ๋ชจ๋“  ๊ฒƒ๋“ค์ด ๋‹ค ํ•ด๊ฒฐ ๋˜๊ณ  ๋๋‚  ๋•Œ๊นŒ์ง€ ์‚ฌํšŒ์ƒํ™œ์—์„œ ์ˆจ๊ณ  ์‹ถ๋‹ค. ๋ช‡ ์ฃผ ๋™์•ˆ ๋‚ด๊ฐ€ ํ•„์š”ํ•œ ์‹œ๊ฐ„๋“ค๋งŒ ๋งŒ๋“ค์–ด์•ผ์ง€.

the most special hour of my two week visit / when i put myself to test to be a fun sister / i am grateful we can be friends despite having lived an ocean away since he was born / despite our age difference (which i think my mental age may match his) / that as he grows, he shows care (although i still find it gross that heโ€™s so much taller than me) / to hold the weight to continue to be a sister he will look up to / february is his month and the lead up to his next big step / i believe ํƒœ์–ด๋‚ฌ์„ ๋•Œ ๋ถ€ํ„ฐ ๋ˆ„๋‚˜๋ž‘ ๋–จ์–ด์ ธ ์‚ด์•˜์ง€๋งŒ, ํ•ญ์ƒ ๋ˆ„๋‚˜ ์ƒ๊ฐ์„ ํ•ด์ฃผ๊ณ  ๊ฐ€๋” ๋งŒ๋‚˜๋ฉด ์นœ๊ตฌ์ฒ˜๋Ÿผ ์ง€๋‚ผ ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์–ด์„œ ๋„ˆ๋ฌด ๊ณ ๋ง™๋‹ค. ๋ˆ„๋‚˜์˜ ํ™ฉ๊ธˆ๋ผ์ง€๋ ํ•ด์— ์ƒˆ๋กœ์šด ์ธ์ƒ์˜ ๋‹จ๊ณ„๋ฅผ ์‹œ์ž‘ํ•˜๊ฒŒ ๋˜๋Š”๋ฐ ์ž˜ ๋ฒ„ํ‹ฐ๊ณ  ์ž˜ ํ•ด๋‚ผ๊ฑฐ๋ผ๊ณ  ๋ฏฟ๋Š”๋‹ค.

on the first day of twenty eighteen, my dad sent me photos from his early morning adventure to gwacheon museum of contemporary art. - on the first day of twenty nineteen, i joined my dad on his second annual adventure to the museum. we took photos with statues that should not be touched & marvelled at the blanket of clouds glistening in the clear blue sky.
