Did everyone have a great weekend? I've been a little slow at responding to comments and preparing this post, so apologies for that. I actually performed at Night Nation Run in Japan, the first running music festival in the world. I was a featured artist for EDM unit EDO, which includes DJ Marc Panther, club-D and Claudio. This time, I was lucky enough to open the set with an original track titled "Freedom." One of my dreams came true this weekend, and I'm still savoring the moment. I'll be posting more about the festival later on!
I mentioned I would be doing a 2-part series on how to wear a casual LBD, and here it is, this time wearing a Bershka midi dress. With the sexy mesh back detail and the feminine silhouette, this particular dress can be worn in a more formal setting as well. But I have a habit of always dressing things down with sneakers, and these Old Skool Vans are a favorite right now. Viktor shot these photos for me in Shinjuku's Kabukicho - the 2nd photo is in front of the Robot Restaurant, always full of tourists. And this dragon mural was sick! We randomly walked by it at the end of our shooting session and had to take a couple shots. You never know what you'll find in Tokyo because it really is a treasure trove of all things interesting.
皆さんの週末はいかがでしたか?コメントの返事や、この記事の準備が遅くなってしまい、申し訳ないです!実は、土曜日に日本初上陸のミュージックフェス、ナイトネーションランのステージに立ちました!マークパンサーさん含むEDOという新ユニットのフィーチャーアーティストとして、オリジナルの曲を歌わせていただきました。ずっと見続けていた夢が一つ叶って、今でもその貴重な体験を噛み締めています。後ほどイベントに関してもっと詳しく説明します!
前回、カジュアルな黒いワンピースの着方のパート2をアップすると書きました。今回は、Bershkaのボディコンワンピースをカジュアルダウンのスタイリングにしてみました。メッシュのバックディテールがセクシーなので、ドレスアップしても着れますよ。でも、私はスニーカーなどに合わせてカジュアルに着がちなので、お気に入りのOld Skool Vansと合わせました。カメラマンのヴィクターさんと新宿で撮影してて、ロボットレストランの前でも撮ってもらいました。やっぱり観光客が多いですね!そして、小さい神社の隣に描かれていたこの竜が本当にかっこ良かったです。たまたま見つけたロケーションだったので、ラッキーでした!都内を歩いていると、色んな発見があるので楽しいですよね。

Love that dragon mural, I'll look out for it next time I'm in Tokyo:) You look great in that dress. Bershka is a brand I used to love when I was living in Spain, but which I've completely forgotten about ever since. Time to go back and see what's in store:)
