Persun asked to sponsor my blog! Hurray! :D As you may know, I've been saving up to move to Europe and I opened Etsy and Storenvy stores for this purpose. Sponsorships will certainly help to expedite my goal of teaching law abroad, so I'm super stoked about this partnership with Persun and I look forward to doing more of these in the future!  As part of Persun's sponsorship, I will receive items to review. There isn't any guarantee that I'll receive my wish list items, but if the item(s) is sufficiently unique and the price is right, I have no problem splurging during a big sale. :D Here are some faves!


PERSUN Wish List

Picture
Colorful Embossed Buckle Shoulder bag/Handbag - $120

Picture
Retro Buckled Flap Satchel - $54

Picture
Embossed Square Satchel - $29

I need a blue bag, like woah. Seriously. I have no blue bags at all. I also don't have any green or orange bags. Fall is practically upon us, so I've been hunting for the right style bag in any of those colors as they would nicely compliment some of my typical Fall styles. I love that first floral satchel!

You've probably noticed that I wear a lot of the same handbags in my style posts. That's because I really don't have that many. I don't own very many shoes, either. Maybe a dozen or so. I am just terrible at being a woman. Well, that and I'm poor. Haha. Must get more shoes and more bags. Yes. OK. Got it.

Loose Style Knitted Cardigan With Front Pockets - $50


I'm pretty stocked up on dresses, believe it or not. I have plenty that I have as of yet to wear. I used my frock challenge as an excuse to acquire more, you see. ;P So, I didn't even bother to look very closely at Persun's dress section. I am, however, a collector of sweaters and cardigans. It's a bad habit, but one that I'm not all that interested in breaking. Hehe. This particular cardigan caught my eye mainly because I've been wanting one in this color and length for awhile now. It is perfect for Fall!

Colorful Balloon Girl Chiffon Vest - $44

Picture
Sheer Scalloped Chiffon Blouse - $34

After purchasing a stand alone closet and organizing my crap, it became easier for me to see the aforementioned sweater addiction. Haha. However, I also discovered that I was critically low on tops. I've got t-shirts out the wazoo, but very few blouses and nice tanks. So, I'm all about trying to fill that void, right now. I gotta say, that air balloon tank top is super cute! I'm already obsessed with it.

British Long Neckline Suit - $131
Picture
Unique Tippet Style Terylene Sleeveless Blazer - $85

Of course, no wishlist of mine would be complete without some menswear inspired items. I'm loving Persun's selection of blazers. The sleeveless blazer style kills me! It's expensive, but I may have to save up for that one.
So awesome! I'm also on a floral blazer kick, lately. The one below is very cool!

Vintage Floral Lapel Blazer - $35

I'm excited to work with Persun and to inform you about the quality of their items and their business practices. If you're like me, then you've probably never heard of this company. So, if you're curious, stay tuned for my upcoming reviews! Customer service is a big deal to me and I will keep an eye on that. Also, I've done some unsolicited on-line shopping reviews in the past, if you want to take a gander.

Any reviews that I write as part of a sponsorship will be my words and they will be honest. If a sponsor(s) tries to change that, you will see their banner disappear from my page. I'm not a mere conduit for advertisements. My blog and followers are paramount. Your respect matters!

Blogger Spotlight Series #2: Where Water Meets The Sky

Meet Cecelia Stewart of Where Water Meets The Sky

Cece and I met through a mutual admiration of each other's styles on Instagram. After a short conversation in Japanese, I headed over to Cece's blog and I fell in love. She's smart, talented, beautiful and did I mention she speaks Japanese? Haha. Yeah, she's pretty rad and a great friend!

As a regular reader of Cece's blog, I quickly discovered that she has an incredible knack for vintage fashion. Each outfit she puts together is so effortlessly chic and retro. If I said I didn't get jealous from time to time, I would be a big fat liar. Hehe.

You can tell that Cece knows exactly what she is doing. I would describe Cece's style as bold without being pretentious. Her use of colors and textures gives onlookers no choice but to admire her and be inspired by her.

Oh and did I mention that Cece is an avid thrifter? :D I rather enjoy gawking at her thrift store hauls. She has impeccable taste!  I highly recommend popping over to see her rare picks!

I'm so happy to be able to introduce you all to this lovely style maven!
セシリアは本当にかっこういい! <3

If you can, please take a moment to visit her blog and say, 'hello!' You can also get to know her awesomeness on Pinterest, Instagram and Bloglovin'

By the way, Cece recently interviewed me on her blog! Thanks, babe! *^_^* If you're curious, you can read it here!

Contact me, if you would like to be featured in my Blogger Spotlight series! I can't make any particular guarantees, but preference will be given to lesser known blogs (i.e. blogs with fewer than 50 followers).

DO NOT write me and ask how much it will cost to be featured. Those requests are offensive and I will immediately place your emails in my spam folder where they will languish forever.
