It's still rainy season in Japan, even though it's already July. But I remember last year around this time, it was extremely hot and humid, where by 10 AM I was already drenched in sweat. So I guess you can say I prefer this weather so much more.

To match the gloomy weather, I wanted to go for a simple, all-black monotone look with some contrasting white with my Skywatch and new faux leather triangle purse from Front Row Shop. When I saw this pretty thing on their website, I knew I had to add this to my purse collection. The triangular shape is so unique, and it is surprisingly useful and fits all of my essentials. I just let it dangle from my wrist when I am walking around. Despite the rain, I really wanted to wear sandals, so I opted for my semi-platform sandals from Aldo - I feel like they don't get my feet as wet as I walk through puddles. Even adding a cute umbrella will make you look even more stylish in the rain.

Lisa and I found this cool food truck in the middle of Omotesando that sells bomb burgers and fries. The cold earl grey tea I had was such a refreshing treat in the humidity. Looking forward to trying some of the other items on their menu.
