2013 is coming to a close and I'd like to stop and reflect on this past year. This year was full of ups and downs. There were a lot of hard lessons I learned and tough obstacles that I overcame. It was a challenging year but nonetheless a good one. As I reflect on this past year, I've learned that I'm a stronger person than I thought I was. God has molded me and shaped me in ways. Whether you come here for my pictures or my words, thanks to those who found my life interesting and came along for the ride. Cheers to another year full of new adventures, challenges and lessons to be learned!

Also, a big thank you to my friends and talented photographers, Ryan Yanagihara, Landon Nagata, and Isabelle Chu, who contributed to my blog this year. Without their work, Stylish in Seattle would not be possible.

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!

 

 

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays! I hope today is full of love, joy & happiness. Last year, my family and I were away for the holidays but this year, we are at home for Christmas. It's nice to be home for the holidays. This morning, I'm staying in my Christmas jammies as long as possible! Have a very Merry Christmas everyone!

Christmas Wish

Right now, I'm at a good point in my life - somewhere I didn't expect to be. If you haven't heard already, Christmas came early this year because I was offered a new job opportunity. Since job hunting is still a huge challenge, I was expecting to find a job in 2014. But here I am, a working woman again with a full calendar going into the new year! That might explain why I haven't posted in a while. But don't you worry, I'll be back in my regular routine soon enough.

 

I still can't believe how fast my life has changed in the past few weeks. All I wanted for Christmas was a job and I got just that. I am blessed. 'Tis a wonderful time to celebrate this new chapter in my life and the holidays. Cheers everyone!
