HEY EVERYONE!

omg, it’s sara/iomoo–she still posts? what? how? when!?

after being awol on my wordpress i am finally back! or so i think i am.

before i explain to you about my awolness, if you ever miss me then just follow me on twitter and tumblr–i post there much more often!

i am now a junior at my high school, and i just finished homecoming at my school as junior class president, which as you can infer is a very stressful and time consuming job. regardless it has all been great so far, just veryyyyy stressful, hence no blog posts :(

i finally have been able to take photos of myself after not taking any almost all summer. i was so busy photographing other people for my portfolio, which i will be posting more pics of soon! meanwhile, check out my facebook page, and like it! :D

here is my costume for halloween a few days ago–i was tuna sushi, inspired by miranda cosgrove the episode of icarly called ihalfoween! some people didn’t really know what i was but when they figure it out, they liked it :)

the headband is ginger, scarf is seaweed, pillow is tuna, and white clothing is rice!

HYPE MY LOOK ON LOOKBOOK!

more photos now!

these photos were taken in san francisco at city hall as a “warm up” for my advanced photography class at academy of the arts.

the assignment was to have 12 images that represented color, light, line, pattern, shape, contrast, and texture.

i prefer taking photos of people over “things” so the assignment wasn’t too fun, but i got to walk around the building at 8:30AM when the lighting was very beautiful. all in all it was still fun!

if you want to see my chinatown, san francisco photos, go here!

hi everyone,

i really want to revamp my blog and make it more photography/fashion oriented; right now i feel like there is no point to it and most of my photos don’t reflect my actual skills at photography.

right now i’m taking an advance photo class at academy of the arts, san francisco. this is my shoot from chinatown; we were supposed to pick 6 best photos, but here are 9. these were from my beginner class (i transferred into advanced after 2 classes)

i’ll have a big update about everything soon–good news but mostly bad :(

i forgot to put my stupid watermark on these, please don’t use them without permission and all that shit. i worked really hard on them.

enjoy~

hey everyone!

so like the title, i guess i should apologize or make up an excuse for not blogging….

but being the 16 year old emotional girl that i am, i’m just going to say that things have been stressssssful! :/

and blogging  has not become one of my top priorities i guess.

really important: i was invited to prom, but unfortunately when i went, something happened to my camera and the lens is now broken and doesn’t auto-focus, so some a lot of my photos have come out blurry and crappy :/ i’m gonna get it fixed asap! i just figured i should let you all know!

but on top of all the shitty things, two great things have come up!

1) i am now my class’s president for junior year next year! wooo!

2) i got an iphone! WOOOOOOOOOOOO!

3) even though i said 2 great things, a third great thing is:

you can follow me on instagram!

do it! just look for iomoo :) OR go to webstagram or followgram, log in, and follow me there! woot! i really think you should follow me. do it. now. come on. plz. c:

♣ ♥ ♦ ♠  ♣ ♥ ♦ ♠

so yeah. anyway i have purchased a ton of cute things recently that i felt like sharing, since that’s what i do when i feel forced to make a post to remind you i haven’t died yet! haha. they’re all non-modelled by me, since i look like shit and am not really in the mood to take pictures of myself [that's a first; jk]

this dress is what i wore on my 16th birthday. i am mad in love with it and i think it is the most beautiful thing ever!!

it’s from anthropologie. i don’t know. i just love it C: i also used the photo of me wearing it [from my 16th birthday] as my campaign picture when i ran for president! :D

16th birthday

i bought this amazing striped frost colored splendid henley online back in…january or february? it’s super soft!! it’s kind of long on me but regardless i still like it a lot. typical splendid quality, which is good!)

DSC_0029DSC_0030

this next item i’m in LOVE with– it’s the maje hostie peter pan collar sweater! i saw it for like $300 on their website and really wanted it, but it was $300, so clearly i didn’t buy it, but then i saw it on eBay and got into a serious bidding war but ended up winning at like $90 (with  free shipping, yippiee!) considering it’s cashmere with real leather arms/collar, i think it’s worth it.

a REALLY long time ago, maybe back in july or so, i purchased the allsaints muses jumper, after oogling over it for almost a year..i love it, it’s really great! allsaints is a wonderful brand. the photos don’t really do the sweater justice, it’s a really artistic and well put together piece!

i bought these red houndstooth free people capris a few weeks ago on ebay. i really wanted them back in 2007/2008 when they  were in the free people catalog but never bought htem, and when i saw them on ebay i just had to have it! they are great!

i’m convinced free people started making their pants smaller. i can fit into these just fine but if i try on pants in the same size but in the current season of free people, it’s too small! x: weird

i’m going to  disneyland at the end of may for a band trip and i’m super stoked!! i saw this minnie mouse shirt and it was so adorable and cute that i decided i had to have it, even if i’m not quite at disneyland yet…c;

i visited h&m and bought these two delightful items; i think the sweater is some kind of lookalike of something selena gomez wore once. idk! my friend just told me it looked the same. i REALLY like the shirt!! it was great to find.

if you can’t read the shirt, it says “i’d walk across the wildest desert and deepest ocean just to kiss you one last time”. so cute!

don’t ask why, but i had been looking for these exact argyle socks for a million trillion years. i kept finding the right color but with a yellow line instead of pink, but i finally found the pink ones! it’s allllll about bein patient, haha.

DSC_0062

and i bought this dotti sweater a really long time ago also, maybe october or something? i really liked it because of its creamy color, but mostly because of the 3 adorable buttons on the shoulder! i had been looking for a sweater like this for a long time and finally found this one after seeing it on le blog de sushi’s blog! she is lovely :)

i will try to get in another post soon, perhaps after i get back from disneyland, or sooner

thanks for being supportive, all my readers! :D

sorry my posts have been so random! school is kicking me in the butt. thankfully it is spring  break for me next week, yippieeeee!

i went shopping at H&M last weekend and bought this dress and scarf. i don’t own anything like this dress but my mom told me to try it on and i ended up really liking it! i had to go to two different H&M’s though, because the first store that i went to didn’t have my size. the one i’m wearing was actually stained with lipstick so they gave me 10% off, and then my mom cleaned it when we got home. it was worth it though!

hype me on lookbook! :D

you really want to stay inside and sleep the light away

i think it’s good to go out

i think that you should wake up
i think i want to live my life and you’re just in my way

it’s been a looooooooooooooooong time since i posted one of these.

i stopped by target 2 weeks ago and thankfully my local store had a lot of jason wu things left! but only in big sizes :( so i ended up getting this pink polka dot blouse, which i really like. it has a rip in the back, but it’s not very noticeable!

awkwardly posed with me is my sick hello kitty foldable bike thing…i got it in like 3rd or 4th grade for christmas from japan. sweet life!

hype on lookbook? :)

the title is derived from a miranda cosgrove dubstep remix song i heard. take a listen as you look at the rest of the pictures if you’d like!

now picture time! yay haha
