Window Shopping w/ me! Brown Boots Like My Chloe & More: Biker Leather Vest!!

It was fun for me to play dress-up on the mannequin yesterday. So today, I thought why not trying out things on the mannequin in the store and see if I have something similar at home. If I don't try them out on me then I probably won't end of buying them impulsively. hee~~

Sure it works for me as I didn't get anything from Nordi. today after done playing w/ those pretty pieces. Hooray!!!

Here are couple things I found interesting. I didn't bother go to big designers collection as I want to find something cute and w/ a charming price tag. Oh, they are not that dirt cheap but they will be w/ the store promotion, discount, friends&family event in the near future. So watch closely for things you want in the department stores as they are gone very fast!!!!

1. "Tory Burch" brown boots. $475


It is actually not as shiny brown as shown under flash here.
I also like the little ruched look w/ button pin.


It looks so similar to my Chloe wedge boots which I adore so much.


My beloved brown Chloe boots.

2. "June" Dark brown biker leather vest $342.



This is a classic look and the leather quality looks n' touches very nicely.

3. Robert Rodriquez wool sleeveless cardigan $385.

It comes w/ a sequined scarf in asymmetrical design.


I can see it being layered inside a coat or trench for extra chic and warm!!



This is a look from my friend, Yu, w/ her brilliant pairing skill. :)
The easy spirit of coat n' cardigan!!

MY ODJ!!



Can't believe I already wear my Emporio Armani tuxedo coat before Nov.!!

4. "Beyond Vintage" cream embroidery blouse $202.


This is ONE THING in my wishlist. :)


I have a weakness on embroidery and cream/white blouse or just plain Victoria style blouse.

5. Robbi & Nikki Sequin Drape Cardigan $231.


6. (INSIDE) Robert Rodrique light taupe/cream wrinkled top $285.

I think they are gorgeous pairing together. :)

Hope you had fun w/ me!!!

Have a fabulous weekend!!!

Rachel - Love the "June" biker vest!!! Does is come in black? Where in Nordstrom did you find it? Your ODJ is very chic, you are definitely getting lots of wear on your gorgeous black boots. The weather here has finally cooled down, I am looking forward to wearing my new boots too. Oh, thank you for your opinions on my recent purchases!
hey, sis: you are much welcome.

You like the biker vest too...I do too. It is such a classic piece...the way my friend, Renee, pulls off very nicely and relaxed.....w/ jean shorts.

Hum..you know we have to keep an eye on that biker vest closely. ha ha ..

Call you sometimes. :)

You are welcome, sis.

I'm a huge fan of the vest as well, esp after seeing your friend Renee with her black one. I've seen the Rick Owens vest online and it is absolutely yummy too. Yu's coat over cardigan look is tres chic for this weather, esp paired with boots. At first glance, I totally thought it was you and your MJ alpaca coat.

So do you have any input on the Lanvin bag that I asked you about last week? :P

I hope you had a great weekend.

Let's see if DF or daddy get to it.. but at this point i dont think anyone is gonna get me anything.. hehe.. i updated my blog! i think u might like this outfit!!

Hi to B above^ i dont know what lanvin bag you asked R but i am loving the silver one so much!! i think i might actually end up getting that one.. hehe
hey, Betsy: You have to send me another link as I didn't receive it at all. hum...what happened to the email these days..it seems all messed-up. :P
oh, Cutie: I definitely will check it out..but you know, right now is 1:53 AM and I just got back from my high school pal's place as I had a huge fight w/ my DH yesterday...I am drunk and definitely need to go to bed ASAP. I will talk to you tomorrow. :)

Congrats to your DH's fancy car!!

Rachel - I guess I should resend the link. Weird how you haven't been getting my emails. :(

Fab finds! I love the vest and the long cardigan. Such a great idea to window shop first to see if you have similar things... definitely a good way to curb spending ;-) I haven't properly looked for FW stuff yet, but maybe it's a good thing, because I know once I start, I won't be able to stop...
Hi, Haute Shopper:

Great you update your blog. Love Tunisia, I never been that country and wish someday I could. :)

Thanks, yep, it is great that I took those pic. and drool over it on my blog....haha.. Ok, I might end of buying that leather vest from JUNE. IT is such a versatile, stylish piece. :)
Well, again, wish I can buy all of them. hahah...

I've been following your blog for quite some time now.

Can I just say that you look fantastic? I mean, with 3 kids, seriously .. how do you do it?

I love those Tory Burch boots! Do you know if they come in black?
yes, Mona:
it did come in black as its style is"Sable." You can find it online in nordstrom.

Thanks for your sweet words, dear.

I believe diet, generic and regular work-out are the only way to look great.....when past 30s. hahaha..

Rachel (hope you don't mind me calling you by your name),

Thanks a lot! I will definitely check them out in Nordstrom.

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
