Black n' White!!

Black n' White is a timeless, classic color combination. You will never go wrong w/ black and white outfit in every occasion. But how to differentiate your black and white ensemble from others' depends on your personal taste n' the ability to pull off the right look.


My ODJ.

1. TOP: Agnes' b ruched sleeves, embroidery neck w/ black beads blouse
2. BOTTOM: La Rok high waist black full skirt
3. Shoes: Gucci metallic bronze flat

I've got tons of black/white in my closet and I'm always looking for ways to make it unique and not boring. I love the touch of color with the Chanel scarf on your Celine tote. Great idea!! That skirt has really served you well b/c I've seen you play it up several times already with a different look each time. Great job!
hah...Betsy: thanks..in fact, I only wear that skirt TWICE in my blog. First time is modeling my Chanel leggings...then it is today. I have tones of black skirts though. different cuts, thin or wide pleated, mini and long. hehe..

OH, today, I had my other jeans altered and Amy mentioned that you had a pants sent to her to do the alternation. haha...

Oh, sweet heart, thanks for your compliment.

R, this is such a girly outfit. from the flutter sleeves to the skirt to the flats. I'm not quite sure how to describe it, but it looks young and very fresh. Loving the colors from the chanel scarf.
I didn't get to comment on your last post but it's great to see families have fun together! I do think your DD's eczema will be better in Taiwan as it's not dry like it is here. Humidity really is better for our skin! How long will you be staying there? I want to visit too, but DH changed his mind because of the swine flu... He doesn't want us on the plane in the enclosed space with poor air circulation.

I like this style. You have nice body shape. Do any department stores carry Agnes' b clothes here?

Rachel -- That's funny how Amy now remembers me b/c of you too. :) She does a good job and I'm sure I'll be going back for more.

Gosh, has it only been twice that you've modeled this skirt? I guess I just felt that I've seen it more time and that each time it's quite different - slightly formal vs. casual here.

I'm so envious that you're heading back to TPE soon. I would love to go too but we probably won't try until later this year, like Nov or Dec.
Hi, Nancy: yes...hopefully Ilona will be much better w/ the humid weather in Taipei. Well...I thought now they have "vaccine" for the flu and it is under control. Anyway....I am very optimistic and I always think if GOD wants me ....he will take me anytime!! haha....... Well..that sounds pessimistic instead...haa.....

.............................

Hi, Qian: I would say it is quite popular in Asia but here in USA, i only know SF city has their boutique. It is a Paris brand and is much popular in Europe I guess. To me, the brand has great quality and simple/pretty design but a little expensive to my standard.
..............................

Betsy: hehe..But you know, I always almost WANT and had to bargain w/ Amy. She charges TOOTOOOTOTOOTTO expensive for simple alternation sometimes...well, my standard again. So I have to say....if it is a simple alternation, go find someone else. (haha)
Yes. we are heading back to Taipei and I think I will plan a trip to Switzerland, Italy or any Europe country for this Nov. hehe..like last year we went to Paris!!

Rachel - Your feelings about Amy's prices is a shared one among her customers. :) My aunt and my mom have been going to her for years and they've said the same thing to me too. Save her services for the expensive, hard-to-do items...

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
