Hapa Time: February 2014

The Midas Touch

Friday, February 28, 2014

Choies top, DailyLook skirt, Steve Madden heels [similar], Prada bag, Victoria's Secret bralette

Yesterday was yet another busy day in LA! Stopping by the Vanity Fair We Work social club is always fun, they seriously have so many cool people in there and there are some really yummy goodies too! I did a quick shoot with Adam from Iamgalla on Hollywood Blvd which you will see either tomorrow or Sunday depending on how tired I am ;)

At night I went to Vanity Fair's American Hustle Toast with Chrysler at Ago (restaurant on Melrose) and saw Amy Adams and Adrian Grenier amongst a few other celebs I was not too sure about. I wore a beautiful BCBGMaxAzria dress which I'll be posting on Instagram soon. When I walked out of the party a bunch of people waiting on the curb wanted to take pictures with me. I thought it was pretty funny because of course I'm not famous at all. It's okay because they'll figure it out later!

About the look! I am wearing a beautiful statement top so I kept everything else simple and black. The pencil skirt does have a small slit in the back. I was pretty cold to be honest but hopefully you can't tell. This is the perfect outfit when you want to feel elegant and put together. Have a wonderful day lovelies :)

Asos top, Shoppiin "Meticulous" skirt, Francescas bag, Guess booties

Just an edgy, casual outfit with an extra coat just in case! It is actually supposed to rain these next few days in Hollywood so I'm excited because I think the air will finally look and smell clean.

I had so much fun at the 2nd Vanity Fair Campaign Hollywood party of the week at the Chateau Marmont as the FIATusa.com blogger :) It was lovely chatting it up with fellow bloggers Mara from MlovesMblog.com and Adam from Iamgalla.com. Also seeing Sylvester Stallone was definitely a highlight!

Lace Bomber

Wednesday, February 26, 2014

Alloy Lace Bomber, Lulus mini black dress, Aldo heels, Ann Taylor bag, Cary Lane necklace, JEWELIQ bracelet, Emporio Armani sunnies

A pretty lace bomber for a pretty day :) Honestly though it won't keep you warm but it does look nice, doesn't it? I'm in LA right now and the weather has been beautiful. I'm sad though because I think the next few days it's going to rain and you can probably guess how hard it is to shoot when it's raining!

I've been loving my mint colored FIAT, and it's nice to not have to pay for a taxi to get around the city. Speaking of which, the Vanity Fair social club is luckily only 10 min from my hotel (Petit Ermitage) and has been hosting all kinds of fun events. Looking forward to my Clarisonic pedi tomorrow and the manicures and mimosas on Saturday!

Last night I attended Vanity Fair's Young Hollywood party, sponsored by FIATusa.com and hosted by celeb Chris Evans. I saw a lot of familiar faces (movie stars: Ed Westwick - Gossip Girl, Steven Yeun - Walking Dead, Tom Felton - Harry Potter, Jessica Gomes - supermodel, Jena Malone - Hunger Games and more) and it was pretty much awesome. Tonight I'll be attending the Annie Leibovitz Book Launch with Leon Max event at the Chateau Marmont :)

Leather and Lace

Posh Shop LA leather and lace dress, Rue Gembon bracelet, Victoria's Secret strapless bra

I shot these this past Friday at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco! It was a bit cold but still a lovely day and the shoot was really fun. The whole crew kind of came out: both of my photographers aka sister and boyfriend including my videographer friend and his assistant! The architecture there is beautiful and of course the perfect backdrop for this dress. Speaking of which, from the faux leather accents to the keyhole neckline to the head to toe lace and train, this dress is simply STUNNING, is it not?

I am actually in LA right now to celebrate Oscar week with Vanity Fair x FIAT!! Very excited to show you guys all of my party looks and daily outfits for the week. Including the complimentary FIAT I'll be driving around (hoping it's a convertible!).

P.S. To see an amazing video clip of this shoot, stay tuned! And possibly check out my Instagram @hapatime xoxox

Tom's Diner

NY&C tank [similar], SHOPPIIN red faux leather skirt, Very Honey leopard bag, Steve Madden heels, Edge of Ember bracelet, Love Stylize necklace

The only good thing about cloudy days (IMHO) is that you can take photos mostly anywhere that has a good backdrop (because the lighting is the same for all angles). In this case I was SO happy to realize I matched this diner we were passing so I just stood in front and tada - it's like it was meant to be.

Anyways this is a classy, sharp look for, quite frankly, anything in which you won't be breaking a sweat. Oh but do mind the amount of walking you will have to do and bring flats if necessary :)

Dahlia Wolf jacket, Asos tank, Bebe leggings, Prada sunnies, DailyLook heels, Mable Suie necklace

This is just a chic, easy daytime outfit! My beautiful jacket was inspired by members of the Dahlia Wolf community! In fact everything created and sold on DahliaWolf.com is inspired by Dahlia Wolf users! Which means you too could simply sign up, upload a photo or two of some clothing you love and if you're lucky your photo will be used to inspire another piece of clothing :)

Also I must say these Bebe leggings fit like a glove and I love how they are made out of very thick, sturdy material. Did you notice the faux leather accents as well? :)

Lady in Red

DailyLook dress, Melie Bianco bag, Aldo booties

Happy birthday Mr. President! How are all of my American readers spending your day off? :)

Now this dress might seem shapeless to some, but I actually think it is really flattering. And even though we are moving into spring (March 20th!) the color scheme here screams fall and it's okay :) Because, well by my logic, there is a fall/winter NYFW, so they're pretty much the same anyway :P Much like flowers are a spring thing but you can wear them during the summer too if you want.

Of course don't forget to wear some sort of shorts under this dress but otherwise it is a very easy look to throw on quickly before you run out the door :) The dress is also available in black!
