About


My name is Jessica. I am a 5’4″ half Japanese, half Caucasian and I have three younger sisters and a cute Yorkie named Mocha ๐Ÿ™‚ I am based out of the San Francisco Bay Area in California.ย I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Creative Advertising and a minor in Studio Art.

As a child I wanted to be an interior designer: I rearranged my room almost once a week! As I got a little older I thought perhaps illustrating books would be my forte. I entered various art contests and often won first place. (Sadly I haven’t drawn or painted for many years now.) I went through three majors in college, 1st) Business, 2nd) Graphic Design and 3rd) settled on (Creative Track) Advertising. It might sound like exactly what I do now but I truly believe it really didnโ€™t have an effect on my fashion blogging route (or even teach me anything about the realm of blogging and social media though I wish they did). It does however reflect that Iโ€™ve always had an inclination towards creating anything that might be aesthetically pleasing to the public eye!

When I stumbled upon Chictopia a few months before the launch of my blog, I felt like it wouldn’t be too hard to start fashion blogging becauseย I love clothes, had done a little modeling for friends, and already owned a DSLR after taking a photo journalism class a few years earlier. But I was wrong! Fashion blogging is a lot of work! But it is also worth it because I love shopping and inspiring others to dress well and thoughtfully! See my January 2012 post called “How I got Started” for a bit more on this ๐Ÿ™‚

Sometimes I have people ask me whatย hapaย is. The termย hapaย can’t actually be found in the dictionary, though it is recognized slang for mixed racial heritage with partial roots in Asian and/or Pacific Islander ancestry. It is also a loan from the English wordย half. In Hawaiian Pidgin,ย hapaย has an extended meaningย of mixed descentย [Wikipedia]. When it comes down to it, you can call me Eurasian, halfie or half-asian, but I preferย hapa (not to mention my grandpa is from Hawaii!) as it’s just one of the coolest words everย ๐Ÿ™‚

    weird question and you don't have to answer if you feel uncomfortable, but I was wondering how much you weigh. I am you height and there are a couple of outfits of yours I absolutely adore, and would love to wear but before I buy the clothes i want to know before hand if I would look frumpy, I tend to. Thank you for your lovely outfits.

    • Jess
      April 28, 2012 / 11:07 am

      Hi lisy, it's no problem. I weigh 110 on average. But please keep in mind that muscle weighs more than fat and in terms of looking frumpy it is not just weight, it is overall physique as well. best of luck and thanks ๐Ÿ™‚

    I stumbled upon your blog via Vivat Veritas. The term hapa caught my eye, since my grandma, mom, and aunt having been calling my sisters and cousins this since we were little. It's nice to know someone else embraces the term. I love your blog, and all the styles you introduce to others. So keep up the good work, and viva la hapa!

I noticed we have the same height and weight and was wondering what sizes do you wear? There are few outfits I really love and would love to purchase them, but I'm not really great at buying clothes online 'cause I always end up with a smaller or bigger size. ๐Ÿ™

Its amazing how youve gone through many majors and found what you like to do. I first started my uni with business but I don't enjoy it so then I started thinking of interior design…but now I'm set on wanting to get a degree in graphic design. And then during and after my undergrad..keep on with my love for fashion and beauty. I'm a newbie with blogger…just started one. I'm so inspired by blogs like yours and Wendy Nguyen and Dulce candy and so many others. I feel like its a little harder for girls like me who wear the scarf to quickly get known and get around. I love you and your blog. Thank you :)oh and I'm a mix of Indian and Taiwanese btw…haha loved your little explanation for the term hapa.

I was already fanning you for a couple of years now on Lookbook.nu and it was just now when I opened my account on Lookbook.nu, while browsing my feeds, I saw your photos and I was like, "We have the same taste in fashion!" without thinking twice, I followed your blog and read some of your posts. You look so stunning and gorgeous! I can't stop myself from saying "She's so gorgeous!" "I wish I have that face & body like hers too!" And now, I could say that, I HAVE A BIG CRUSH ON YOU! And you became one of my inspirations now! :"> I really love how you style and everything! You're so perfect! :">

    Wow you are so ducking hot. Like the hottest chick on Instagram. Well I usually prefer blondes but you are pretty striking too in appearance. One bit of advice I think I'm your website description says you are "cauc asian". This term for white person is incorrect.The cowcasions are from the Caucasus region of the former scviet union, in places like omg, Chechnya, so I think you might want to change your description of yourself to White!If you are ever in NYC I cold buy you a drink or a coffee!Patrick
