We continued to celebrate our anniversary on Friday night and we booked a 'hot-tub' at the Piedmont Springs, just down the street. It was amazing. It makes me wish we had a decent tub in our little place, but for now having hot tubs for rent down the street may be the next best thing.
I taught English in Japan for a time, and quite probably my favorite Japanese custom was the Ofuru. I'd honestly forgot how relaxing it can be to soak in a hot tub, in a quiet private space - just to have that time to decompress is such a luxury. If you have a hot tub, or nice home tub, or an ofuru, you are very lucky!
And, here is what I wore out and about for today...
From my closet: Sunglasses - Cheap Monday (the same one's I always wear), Jacket - Levis, Sweater - thrifted, Top - T by Alexander Wang that was a gift. Bag - Matt & Nat, Jeans and scarf are old UO, and by old I mean a couple of years ago. I really really love this scarf and I hate to think what will happen when it starts to fall apart.
Apparently I like wearing that top and jeans combo- here is a picture where I'm channeling Olivia Newton John.
I wore it out with a long cardigan though, as it's a little too slinky of a look for me otherwise.
I hope that you are all having a great weekend!
Oh! And, this post is my very first on the new laptop! Hurrah!

Those jeans are pretty amazing on you, so I understand why you wear them a lot.
ReplyDeleteHot tubs just down the street sounds awesome. I want to go to the Korean saunas/hot tubs here in NY with my blokey, but he's not into that. I may go with a good friend instead.
I haven't been in a hot tub in years! wish i was right now!
ReplyDeleteLove the bottom outfit!
Hou, I love everything about this outfit, especially the dressed down version. I'm really happy to have discovered you blog :)
ReplyDeleteSo jealous of your hot tub experience!! And you're definitely giving Olivia a run for her money in those trousers!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds so awesome.
ReplyDeleteI love your high-waisted jeans! They look awesome. Hot tub date sounds rad. (:
ReplyDeleteThere is only one way to describe this outfit and that is COOL. You look seriously cool. The rib of the sweater looks so interesting!
ReplyDeleteI haven't been in a hot tub forever, yet another reason for me to go visit my friends and snowboard in CO, they have a hot tub in their back yard and there is nothing better than a beer in the hot tub after a long day on the slopes!
good tip on Piedmont Springs. Berkeley Hot Tubs on University are pretty gross :/
ReplyDeleteLove those jeans! The buttons are so cool. I'm slowly rediscovering all that Oakland has to offer, thanks for the hot tub tip!
ReplyDelete:)
Hi all thank you for your comments. These jeans are super soft and comfy too!
ReplyDeleteFor you east bay-ers. Piedmont Springs is great! Inexpensive - clean - easy to get to - and they also have saunas!
December 11? How did I manage to miss this...
ReplyDeleteAt any rate - a nice hot tub soak sounds pretty awesome. I wish I had one, or at least knew someone who did.
I really like the sweater (right - yes, I did see this on flickr!)
