Welcome to the Canadian prairies! This shot is taken in the field behind my father's farm half a mile east and half a mile south of Plenty, Saskatchewan, Canada with our basset hound Howard sitting next to me. It's definitely a different lifestyle here than in Seoul, one that I don't think I'm really cut out for anymore. But that said, it's always nice to come home, catch up with family & relax or help out my dad.   I don't get the chance to come home near as often as I should.

An aerial shot of our farm. The farmhouse was built in 1911 by my great-grandfather's uncle.

I was given this olive green Kai-Aakmann jacket when my friend Cory and I took a street fashion picture for Vogue Girl Korea. It has a cute Kai-Aakmann bat stitched into the back, but I forgot to photograph that. I love the huge skies on the prairies and the long, almost neverending horizon. Views like this are something I miss so much when living in the city.

These steel-toed rubber boots are kinda badass and are a must to wear on the farm in Canadian spring.  If I can fit them in my luggage I might bring them to conquer the rainy streets of London. It's a late spring in Canada this year with quite cold weather. As I type this blog entry the thermometer reads -2 degrees Celcius.  You can still see snow on some of the hills in the distance.

I bought the galaxy pants two days before leaving Seoul at Doota shopping tower in Dongdaemun & I LOVE them!  I'm always a sucker for drop-crotch pants and I love the galaxy print.  Like I said, skies are huge in the prairies and at night you can see so many more stars than you can when living in a city like Seoul so I thought these would be the perfect match for my first 'chadchad of the day' from the farm.

Today my friend Cory & I were asked to come up with a street fashion inspired look to wear along with the Kai-Aakmann military jackets pictured above for the April issue of Vogue Girl Korea. She wore the black one while I wore the khaki.  Unfortunately I didn't sneak a shot on my iPhone with the jacket on, but they will be sending us each a jacket in the mail soon enough. It actually has a cute 'Kai-Bat' stitched onto the back and is a great light layering piece for spring.

I wore it along with this yellow plaid shirt I reformed to sell at the Bling Night Flea Market at Platoon tomorrow. I sewed a shiny pleather western inspired patch onto the upper left shoulder as well as adding some stud detailing.

These Jackson Pollock-esque leggings are actually an ultra badass unitard complete with shin-pads that I thrifted at Dongmyo flea market for about $1. I wore them under a pair of cutoffs that I dipped in bleach to make a subtle gradation of color from light to dark.  I was given the sneakers almost two years ago (yikes!) after modeling for the Adidas 60th Anniversary party at Platoon with a few of my friends.  Check out that collection of photos here, it was a ridiculous fun time: http://bit.ly/csFgft

I bought this angry little purple monster backpack for only W12,000 ($12US). I think I'll send it to my baby sister for her 11th birthday. Hopefully she'll be somewhat impressed that it was shown in Vogue Girl, but that's probably unlikely. She's a tough nut to crack that kid.
