  • About Mae

    Mae Lu is a Canada-born, So-Cal-raised Asian American 30 Something, living a dream with her hubby & dog in the magical kingdom of Hawaii.

    This red-lipstick aficionado designs websites for a living and runs a fledgling lifestyle YouTube Channel in her spare time. On the weekends, if she's not filming, you can find her behind the lens of her Sony A6000, shooting scenery in Hawaii, hiking the hills and ridges of her beloved island home, or chasing the perfect sunset.

    Why "thereafterish."? Because "and they lived happily ever thereafter" is just half of every story, and this is mine.

{ Architecture of an Outfit } Chillin’ out Max #NAHHHHHHHHHH
April 17, 2011

I was going to participate in the second issue of the

The Pajama Project

But I worked for like 6-7 hours straight on freelance work today, and about 4 yesterday, the most massive Olympus Mons-proportioned pimple sprouted to life on my nose, all bulbous and red, I have a pile of laundry to do, and of all things to stop working, my kitchen sink’s drain decided to give in to the Trouble Gremlins living in the sewer and stop draining…so not only can I not cook, I can’t clean any dishes and I can’t run the dishwasher. Lovely.

Lovely, in the way you’d think stepping in your dog’s turds after he’s had stomach flu for a week would be, or lovely in the way a 600lb man’s stretched flesh ripples when he runs. You know, awesome like that.

So while I would LOVE to participate in this week’s challenge, I’ll take a number NAHHHHHHHH, and pass this round.

In its stead, I’ll just post pictures that came from a happier, stabler, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Grumpy Pants-free time.

{Ya’know…like last week.}

VANITY TIME! Wa hoo!!!



This is how I pose when people take my photos, who aren’t fashion bloggers. I don’t know how to behave in front of people….

{Or anywhere, for that matter. Did you not see my vacation photos? WEIRDO!}

Have you ever had one of those days where it was just like… Man! That was such a great day! UNTIL! The last hour or two, when everything imaginable goes dreadfully awry?

{Have you ever had one of those days?}

Yeah, that’s tonight.

Make sure you check out my sponsor Smashion, the eco-friendly alternative to Etsy or eBay, a fee-free marketplace community where you can sell new and mintly used wares with no 20 year old vintage listing limits. I’ll be writing about them tomorrow!
