COLOR BLOCKS!!

I gave this (vintage) quilted cropped jacket a face-lift couple weeks ago n' finally I got it back...


The result?!!


100% satisfied!!


My tailor understands exactly what I wanted to do for this Millard Fillmore MF-13 jacket. And she did a superb job!! 
(review: Millard Fillmore is United State 13th president aka. the Father of Contemporary sports wear, remember?!!)

Here is the look before~~
Cute jacket but seem not tailored enough to fit me...

After done the transformation!!

The puffy princess sleeves perfectly show the softness of guilt in my opinion n' more cropped length gives this jacket a trendier look!!

 This quilted jacket is a high quality embodiment of true natural classic!!


This is my today's inspiration -- Marc Jacob color block taupe Mika bag from 08'!!


There are camel, navy, military green, purple, orange, gray and yellow(gold bracelets) on me.... a rainbow color!!! ^O^




My ODJ.


  • Accessory:
Hermes orange lacquer/horn necklace
Chanel 08' gray flat mary-jane w/ charms design



Have a great weekend!!! xoxo Rachel

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
