An understatement, to say the least that attending Coachella hasn't been a longtime dream. Well, wish granted. Just last year January when tickets for the 3-day festival were released, I found myself anxiously biding on an online waiting room for about an hour or so while at work (because sales follow Pacific Standard Time). Take note, it only took 20 minutes for Weekend 1 to be sold out. But at long last, the odds were on my favor and thankfully got tickets for Weekend 2. Al

Finally, the semester's almost over and I just thought it's about time to dig in to my Chinese roots and recognize my granddad's heritage. For over 5 months now, I have been working in a Chinese-concentrated community in Brooklyn and this is what made me appreciate a little bit of my blood origin. The speakers there are mostly Cantonese and it's such a delight that my co-workers are kind enough to teach me few simple phrases and the basics needed for physical therapy. I'm act

Finally sharing the chilliest lookbook to date and the most skin you'll ever see from me hahah. As popularized once by KKW on the snowy

A fine Wednesday morning in Park City. And we all know what Regina George’s thoughts about Wednesdays, right? ‘On Wednesdays, we wear pink’.

Freezing in Utah as usual. But is it ever really cold to be pretty? I beg to differ. Queue in: pastel-colored down jackets. Downs are the soft under feathers from geese, ducks or a combination of both which by the way, are byproducts for food adhering to standards to ascertain cruelty-free to these animals. As a rule of thumb, one thing and probably the most important thing to consider when picking a jacket for the bitterly cold winter is its fill-power. The number on the tag

What's good, Boston? Do you hear wedding bells ring? I do, as one of my closest friend just got engaged. On that note, I decided to arrive in shades of red to celebrate love, compassion and romance; red coat, red earrings, red lippies and a hint of red tartan plaid stole. I will also be sharing here on how I managed to trick her into paying for my bus tickets to and from Boston for her own surprise proposal LOL. Look closely you'll see both of my hands matched with the theme

Subzero windchills. Single digits. Spotted at Bryant Park the day after an arctic blast. Looks like its fur season in the Big Apple once again, faux fur that is. And just when you thought we're in for an early spring 'cause Punxsutawney Phil couldn't find his shadow on Groundhog Day, think again. The next best thing to do now is to button up and hope for warmer days. Speaking of bundling up, here is a jairusmflores checklist to surviving the cold winters of New York. Cashmere

Xin Nian Kuai Le!! 新年快乐🏮🧧 Indeed, the year of the Earth Pig is upon us. And what better way to celebrate the Lunar New Year than to wear the lucky colors, right? This year, it is said to be the colors associated with the beneficial energies of the elements Fire and Metal symbolized by the colors: red, pink and orange and white and gold respectively. On that account, I sported a brick red coat for a hint of luck to kick off the last year of the Chinese zodiac cycle. And also

Short glen-plaid skirts. 6th Ave. This is probably the last time you’ll ever see this much skin for 2018. Fortunately for me though, the weather cooperated. It was a 55 degree Sunday morning and the nicest that's ever been all week, I couldn't really complain. So I jumped in on the opportunity and tailored a cute autumn ensemble as a last hurrah before it snows heavily and all the bundling up. I mean sure, I have my bad days, but then I remember what a cute smile I have. Haha

It is my first autumn in the Empire State and I am loving every bit of it. BeLEAF it or not. From the changing of colors in Central Park to the breezy climatic features of November. But no matter the season, you can never go wrong with florals. It's a lookbook staple anyone can pull off. For this ensemble, I paired a refined floral dress with a turtleneck long-sleeve and matched with Bohemian layered tassel earrings for that K-drama feels. (I'm not really a K-pop fan but I fe
