Seoul Searching: My OOTDAY Summer Style Diary
How 10 Pieces Became My Capsule Wardrobe Revolution
Monday 8 AM
Ding! My phone lights up with a text from Minji: "Emergency brunch! Wear something that says ‘I didn’t try’ but secretly slays." Panic mode! Enter the Solid U-Neck Slim Fit Tee – my Korean minimalism savior. Slipped it on with denim shorts, added hoop earrings, and voilà – effortless chic in 2.7 minutes flat. Minji’s first words? “Did you lose weight?” No girl, it’s just that magic U-neck silhouette!
11 AM Sugar Rush
Post-matcha energy hit hard. Swapped basics for the Sweet Ruffled Tiered Mini Skirt – its A-line twirl made me feel like a k-pop star grocery shopping. Caught my reflection in a bakery window and did an impromptu dance. The cashier applauded. True story.

Heatwave revenge! Changed into the High-Waisted Drawstring Sporty Shorts – their lightweight fabric felt like air-conditioning for legs. Paired with the viral Sweet INS-Inspired Graphic Tee (oversized + button accents = perfection). Instagrammed my "casually cool" pose near Han River. 47 likes in 8 minutes. New record.

Remote work crisis: Video call with LA team at 3AM their time. Solution? The Polo Collar Sleeveless Knit Cardigan over my Striped Knit Cropped Camisole. Professional up top, secret pajama party below. "Luna, your style is so put-together!" If only they knew about my unicorn slippers...

Date night jitters! Chose the High-Waisted Asymmetrical Skort – its sneaky shorts layer prevented "Marilyn moments" in subway gusts. Paired with the Sexy Lace Trim Camisole Top. That delicate lace made me feel dangerously feminine. He tripped staring. Mission accomplished.
10 PM Street Cred
Club-hopping required armor. The Drawstring High-Waisted Sporty Shorts became my MVP – danced for hours without tugging! Topped with the Sweet Letter Print Lace Camisole. Its cropped length showed just enough skin to trend on Minji’s Instagram story. #OOTDgoals indeed.
