exciting month


April is an important month in Japan. 

New school year starts in April not, September.
New employees start their new jobs in April. 
Fiscal year start in April. 

Cherry blossoms make us feel that spring is here and the weather is getting warmer. 
A lot of "new-ness" is felt everywhere you go.

There is a new building that is going to open tomorrow~
It is called Shibuya Hikarie.
It is a building that houses theatre, restaurants and cafes, shopping and a floor that is dedicated to arts and culture. There are offices spaces above and parking lots and the subway station should connect right below all of this.

I am trying to see when I can go check it out~

I get excited when I see buildings that are being built, and I can see the process. and yes I have shared it here before but it was two years ago when I took this photo.



A year later of so I took this.


This was also the same time I was preparing to do the pop-up store, at the department store right across from this one. We pack all the displays and everything else that we need and stack them up on the dolly so that we can take it inside and start setting things up.


Well, this time we had 3 white plastic containers and one cardboard box stacked up on each other and bound together with a durable rubber cable. 
You can see the similarity right?


The great and exciting thing is that there is a store that will carry some of the ileava jewelry, starting tomorrow! 

Yeah~!  I can't wait to go see it all!




In another month or so, there Tokyo Sky Tree will have its grand opening. Always a lot of exciting things happening in Tokyo!!

Roses


About a week ago, I went to go see roses with my family. They are plated all along the train tracks and it is only in May that they bloom all at once. 
It was really nice. It would've been fun looking  at them from the train too, and I'll do that next year I think.







The best part I think was that there were all these rose petals on the streets. All different colors~

June is all about rain and hydrangea.

rain or shine

Make rainy days feel not as bad......!



The new collection from ileava, Ao, was made so that those rainy days won't make you feel so gloomy anymore.

Wear cloud pieces for cloudy days or rain drops for rainy days to make you feel differently about those rainy days.


There's always the sun above the clouds~


Available at Accents Jewelry on Main St. Santa Monica.

Christmas is just around the corner~


ileava's new star and heart rings are sold at Yolk.
and few other selections as well~

it's a little hard to see in this photo.
The little heart and star could be worn together inside of the large open heart or star~
if you are in the area, Yolk is a great store that you can find gifts for others and gifts you want to give yourself!



I used to drive on this street almost everyday, one summer when I was interning for an architect studio.  I really liked how a busy street filled with stores, (Beverly) turns into a curvy street (Silver Lake) The best part is when you get to the lake and everything is a bit more open.

That summer is filled with great memories.
