Winter in LA

Finally it’s beginning to feel like winter here in Southern California, albeit just for a few days. I was beginning to accept the 80 degrees as the extent of winter in LA, but lo and behold, the polar vortex has arrived. I have to admit, as much as I enjoy this so-called summery winter, I do miss getting bundled up. I miss all the long coats, Uggs, cozy knits, scarves and all the winter accessories. I’m sorry to those who live in the mid-west to the east coast....but grass is greener on the other side. We always want what’s on the other side. Christmas should feel like winter: cold & cozy, not hot & freaking 80 degrees spent on the beach like summer. Maybe I’m so adverse to the hot sun because I’m that typical, traditional Asian who don’t want to get dark skin. But hey, I don’t do the big visor and the glove thing...I may be Asian, but not that Asian. Thanks global warming! Who knows what’s in store for us next?

I was so happy to wear this slight ‘wintery’ outfit, but it was truly a sad day for me. My pants were too tight! Arrggh!! I don’t weigh myself on a scale so you can always know when you put your pants on. When it’s tight, you know you’ve been a baaad girl . This little piggy had a little too much pumpkin pie from Urth Cafe over the holidays. Too much eating and not enough working out...fat a$$ in tight pants....is what you get. My camel toe (oh lord sweet jesus, did I just type that?) is showing (now that I mentioned it, don’t you dare zoom in on it) how embarrassing (should I photoshop?) By the way, did I mention all the photos on this blog are raw images?! Yep! Hence not retouched or photoshopped in any way...that’s what you get with good lighting and a good photographer. So camel toe or not...what you see is what you get. :) xx
