FLOWER DAY

Living in Japan, I have gained a deeper appreciation for springtime and the beauty that comes after the cold of winter. Thank you Lord for new life and the beauty of your creation!  

I went in to the Ginza/Tsukiji area to Hamarikyu gardens to check out these incredible yellow (rapeseed) flowers. 

A lot of legit photographers were there and my favorite was this old man who had all his gear and looked so pro. He was in this one spot for a long time trying to get a shot of a few birds flying over the flowers. 

And this little grandma was so cute! 

I bought some dango as a snack and not only did it look rad with the flowers in the background but they tasted amazing as well! There were also a few wedding shoots happening and all I wanted to do was follow them around and take pics of the beautiful kimonos with the flowers!

From a certain angle it looked like the people were floating in a sea of yellow!

I met up with my friends, the Lims, and we walked over to the tea house area to check it out.

Thanks Nathalie for these pics ;) 

Nathalie had the brilliant idea to frame some flowers! stunning right!?

After taking pics and enjoying the scenery, we took the train a few stops over to Mitsukoshimae to go to an exhibit called FLOWERS by NAKED (I think they could have chosen a better name) 

The exhibit was a bunch of paper flowers (mixed with a few real ones) and it was pretty fancy and VERY TOKYO. Loved spending time with friends being inspired by such beauty!

And lastly, following my recent flower inspiration, I bought a new phone case. It's forsure the girliest phone case I've ever owned and a few 16-year-old-freepeople-loving-high-school-girls must have the same one as me but it felt very fitting for this season in life so I considered it worth it! 
**p.s...I can hear my sister saying "you wear so much black!" hahaa**

GOAL FOR APRIL : SEE AS MANY FLOWERS AS POSSIBLE AND PRAISE GOD FOR EVERY SINGLE ONE!
