Hermes~ I am feeling the Birkin!!

The weather is so hot, neither did I wear the long boots nor carry my Birkin out. However, I am feeling so pampered just by toting it around at home. lol My friends are surprised as they think it doesn't like Rachel, Moi!! I am usually the one w/ the most impulsive buy, desire, talking......among my friends ......*sigh*, I guess people DO change over time then!! haha.....

Although I really want to dress classic w/ my little black dress for a sophisticated look w/ Birkin , I figured it just doesn't meet my life style. Hum...maybe in the future when DH and I are going out for a date!!! Now I hope my parents-in-law do visit us ASAP!! haha.......

This is the look of me on Tuesday.......


BR-Edition gold tassel necklace, Hermes CDC, Minnetonka boots w/ Lanvin happy sac!

I got lazy thinking about ensemble on Wednesday then I thought that pretty lavender/pink tank top might look pretty w/ Gris T. Birkin. So I recycled my clothes from yesterday....well, i don't normally do that...hahahhaha..but I do change my underwear!!!!!!! lol


1. TOP:
  • H&M charcoal body suit
  • pastel pink/lavender racer-back tank
2. Bottom: indigo leggings
3. Accessory:
  • Lanvin vintage yellow/blue scarf
  • Flying lizard design gold-plated necklace w/ turquoise
  • Chloe taupe tall boots
  • Hermes Gris T. 35CM Birkin
  • Hermes White CDC ( Collier De Chien) w/ golden HW
  • Balenciaga sunglasses





Thursday, I shopped in my closet and found this long forgotten top w/ t shirt from Orange Boss. You must be wondering how come I only pair my Birkin w/ Chloe tall boots........ well, that's the only pair currently seems to be a perfect match!!!!




1. TOP:
Boss t-shirt
Boss sheered floral blouse
2. Bottom:
Ksubi spray-on jeans

3. Accessory:
  • Hermes Horn w/ orange lacquered 2 sides necklace
  • Hermes Ostrich belt w/ textured "H" golden logo buckle




w/o long sheered shirt, the jeans is really tight......or I need a diet!!!!!!!! lol

Today (Friday)


My friend, Yu, wore her Etoupe Hermes belt.
Can you see her little short-sleeves top has a big shoulder but more feminine twist!!


I wore distressed jeans, tank, RUGBY white military-inspired jacket this morning.


In the evening, going out w/ family!!

1. TOP:
  • BCBG ribbon trimmed gray tank
  • RUGBY white military-inspired matte nickle buttons jacket
2. Bottom:
Linda Loudermilk organic bamboo pants
3. Accessory:
  • Chanel Matte white reissue 227
  • Hermes white togo leather CDC

You look hot! The Chloe boots and the new Birkin are a match (I think it would look great with black and or white sandals too!)! I can't stop drooling over your new bracelet!!!! I seriously consider getting one with PH as well...

Hi, Lily:
Thank you, sweetheart. :)
You def. should try all the colors of CDC just to see which color best suits you...They have only two colors available when I was in Hermes last time...... :( Well, but I love white just as much as every other color and it matches my Chanel reissue perfectly.

You know what, now maybe I need to check out if they have silver HW available.

Hey, babyskyblue:
Thanks. :) TOday, I carried my Birkin to SF city the very first time and saw the other two girls randomly carried 1 black and 1 camel....both of them look very young...well, they don't have kid by the side so I assuming they must younger than me. haha.. Suddenly, I feel they must sold all the basic colors, black, gray, and camel....(wait, I saw a lady w/ Raisin Birkin in Stanford shopping center on Fri.) .... it is interesting that I start noticing Birkin more and more or it is just they are more available than they used to be??!!!!

I don't know what does she carry but it is not big brand name at all. (I will ask for you next time.) She carries that a lot these couple days and she doesn't care if it is really dirty at the bottom..haha.... I guess that's one good thing about good looking bag w/ so affordable price. Oh, I carried a very distressed brown messenger bag on Friday and put it on the table when shopping inside RUGBY store then a girl checked out my bag ..... .... haha..I had to tell her that's my bag!!!! hahaha...That's so funny!!!! She and her friend had to compliment that I have good taste.....for excuses!! haaha...
(oh, I didn't carry my Birkin out until today, I only take pic. w/ it at home. haha..)

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
