Randomly stumbling across a friend!

This week, well, even today is only Tuesday, must be the best week of catching up w/ old and new friends of mine ever!!!

My friend, Cathy and I took kids out for a walk in such a nice sunny day. While we wait at table for a delicious lunch, suddenly I heard someone calling my name so loudly!!!! I can't recall if I felt embarrassing as everyone must look at us!! :P It took me more than a couple sec. to recognize this virtual friend. :) I mean, we talked a lot on line. We know each other through a fashion blog called purseforum but never had the chance to meet. She is very young as she is still in college.

I am so surprised that I meet another new friend IRL. But I guess I was too exited to invite her to sit down w/ us. Well, I know, I don't want kids to ruin her first impression over bad table manners. haha.... But speaking of
fashion, it is ageless!! Yes, our moms passion is fashion too!! haha.....

My ODJ.

1. TOP:
  • Zara horizonal boat neck tonic top
  • Miss Sixty washed white jean jacket
2. Bottom: Nicholas Zosea Shimmer techno skirt w/ pockets
3. Black leggings
4. Chanel black caviar mini flap
5. Shoes: Sergio Rossi red heels w/ wide black ankle straps
6. Wool hat

I have been looking for this hat since last year.


The buckles on heels are over arch not exactly on ankles which I love.


I love this hat can add this cool attitude to my outfit.


Kids are the best entertainments to each other!!


Here are my new friends, Wai and her friend. (not sure if I can post her name. haha..)

Rachel -- What a coincidence to bump into Wai!!! You both look very cute. I thought Wai only shopped in SF, but it's great to know that she comes down to Santana Row as well. The hat is a great addition to your stylish wardrobe. I love the attitude, for sure.

Love the hat Rachel! It definitely adds that something extra to your outfit... very cool! The bow o the side also adds some femininity. Great buy! The red heels are gorgeous! I don't think I'm capable of running after my son in heels that high haha.

It's a small world isn't it?! It must have been a nice surprise to bump into cute wai. I have many friends in cupertino and fremont. Maybe I will also bump into you one day when I visit them! haha...

I WANT those shoes!!!
hi, girls, nice to catch up w/ you all again. I think my little one is probably allergic to pollen?? although I have not got the lab result from the doc. Poor her......

Just dropping few words here as we might have a business trip down to LA w/ my DH next week. I am searching the hotel at this moment.

Hi, Wai: I will chat w/ you more later. Yes, the heels is probably this season as I just bought it last Sunday at the shoe Candy store at Santana Row. Cathy bought the same pair of heels yesterday after she saw mine. haha..... It is on sale and for $300 including tax, it is a great buy. I love the blooding red!! hehe...
bloody red.....not blooding..haha....

Rachel - I have already told you this over the phone, but I absolutely love your red heels!!! They are the perfect red - not too blue, and not too orange, and the black straps add an interesting element to the shoes. I wish we could meet up when you are in LA, but I completely understand it's so out of your way. Maybe when you visit Disneyland next time? Oh, I will be going to Taiwan in May, when are you going?
Hey, Isabel: I am thinking of end of MAY too. Before the school ends...hum...but it is very very HOT HOT HOT...so my mom said that maybe they can come over instead. Well...we got time to think.

Do you know early of May or end of May? We can meet in Taiwan if we are back at the same period of time.

Make a Wish w/ Russia Babushka doll!!

My friend, Michelle asked me about my opinion of Chanel Babushka doll's necklace once and I said "Not worth getting it"!! Now I am not so sure if I would say the same thing to this adorable babushka doll clutch!! lol However, even I want to find it, this doll clutch is probably long gone by now!! I have a real Russia Babushka doll made in Russia which is a gift from 10 years ago! I couldn't find the same one in USA since this set of 15 nesting dolls are truly intricate!! This is the biggest one which has the most exquisite engraving. Total 15 of them! (2 are missing from the pic.) I heard that you can make a wish w/ these nesting dolls. If your wish comes true, you can open one until all 15 are all open!! I never made any wish w/ them, guess I was too realistic of a person myself. I don't know if each engraved temple/castle on the dolls represents something. You can't open the smallest one which is only the size of the little finger nail. I adore those golde
