Drapes for All Body Figures!!!

I found couple pic. of people wearing draped dresses and thought it is fun to see all of them altogether!


Why?

Cause' our body figures are totally different but we all rock in those draped dress/jersey dresses!! ^O^


Too bad, it didn't show what kind of heels that Beyoncee wore. But I am sure more LADY like.

This is a very trendy look last year w/ A. Wang combat boots. 

Yu's Herve' Lerger for Max Azria beige/nude draped w/ knot dress and A. Wang booties. 


Moi!! Outfit Du Jour



1. Top:
  • Pete roses pink tank underneath $29
  • Pete gray draped boat neck jersey dress $39 (I got it larger size n' sew couple spots to make the drapes more flattered on me.)
  • cotton blend quarter sleeves red coat
2. Accessory:
  • Hobo International snake skin print clutch
  • my DIY necklace
3. Shoes: Valentino patent taupe bow sling back platform heels



I clip that cameo onto the J Crew rose gold colored chain necklace.....to make my own necklace! (Thanks to Isabel who bought that cameo brooch for me at flea market.)




Hum... maybe I will look edgier w/ a pair of cool boots next time!!! 


I got all of those pieces recently to refurbish a spot at my house...Oh, except for the chef's 3-D painting which I got it 5 years ago!! 

This is the side of this print which requires two prints for each 3-D painting to be made of.

"The chef is always right!" ^O^
Don't you just hate your BF or DH or anybody to add other spices into your dishes which you think it tastes divine already?!!!hahah..... 
Have some fun cooking on the weekends!! xoxo Rachel

I love draped dresses! They're so figure flattering. Your gray one is beautiful! My mom hates it when I add seasoning to her cooking, but I love pepper and garlic and she's so heavy-handed when it comes to salt.

The Chef is Always Right painting is in 3D??

Anyways, I love the dress in the second pictures you posted... As for Beyince, I hope the shoes hse wore weren't golden lol That would be too much of a good thing to my liking! Love your terracottish red coat and its ruffle detail! Looks great with gray :)

haha.. Mike: I totally understand how your mom feels...but I guess adding some condiments is fine for me...like a little more salt or pepper...or chili but not another dominate flavor to the dishes.....my DH likes to add a strong aroma of "deep fried scallion" to every dishes and I hate that.... I always told him that why do I need to season when you add your own flavor to every dishes..haha.hahahaha...
Oh, I think I am a heavy taste person too!! :)

Hi, Julia: yes, that chef painting is 3D but the peg is not belong to the same painting...I just bought the peg the day before n' thought they are meant to be each other..haha..

I am sure Beyoncee didn't wear gold heels for that outfit..haha..yes, otherwise that will be too much of mono-colored outfit!!

You know, I can never spell that color right.."terracotta" but the minute I wrote it, i think you got it so right!!!! :)

Black Swan Part ? - My Gray Swan and the Party!!

Natalie Portman in Movie: Black Swan. (pic. source: Officer trailer from YouTube .com) I have been inspired by Natalie Portman's character in this movie-- Black Swan . She is an awesome actress and I can't wait to see this movie in Nov. I didn't intend to copy everything from her character but the make-ups does seem incredible "Halloween-suitable" to me.  My Halloween theme: 3 kiddos go to trick-or-treat at " Dr. pumpkin Susses ' haunted house". ^O^ More highlight of my creation.... Twilight poster - "eclipse"...haha..  My Gray Swan make-up! I use black eyeliner for the outline of the feather.  Bobbie Brown newest eyeshadow : Black velvet and dab w/ The Body Shop silver-gray eyeshadow for more definition.  I could do better next time for more details on feather!! I also add a fake eye-lashes w/ white dots for more fun and dramatic!! Voila~ my Gray Swan .... w/ Alaia gold lace-up heels! ^^ A full house of ...

Last Steal Before s/s 2010!!

It has been a while since the last time DH and I went out for a DATE!! Well, I guess a real DATE is just too luxury for us having 3 young children and it always needs a special arrangement for it to happen. Ilona won't go to preschool until this fall so hopefully by then, DH and I will have more romantic date-out alone!!! DH's Porsche is manual and I have no problem of driving it too. Thanks to my driving coach back in Taiwan so I can drive both manual and auto-shift cars!! :) I am not so into cars personally!...... IT to me is one kind of transportation means from destination A to destination B. :) Ilona sits pretty cozily at the back seat! Finally there is my Chanel 08' pink crystals brooch. My ODJ. 1. Top:  Dimension Victorian style white shirt dress RUGBY military inspired coat et vous fur coat 2. Bottom: Dolce Vita denim cut-out leggings 3. Shoes:  09' fall Proenza Schouler platform cap toe pump w/ wooden heels 4. Accessory: Chan...

Can't Have Enough of Alexander Wang -- The Skirt n' Coco Duffel Bag!!

My parents came yesterday evening...and yes, my mom did bring over the Chanel classic jumbo I bought for her!!! My heart palpitated so fast after seeing her carrying that THEN-Mine-NOW-HERs bag!! lol  I really love the classic look of Chanel!!! Well, I know you must think that I could either trade or borrow that classic jumbo from her, but I just don't know how to ASK!! So I think I will wait till next spring and see if boutique, NM or SAKs would order Chanel matte black reissue 226 w/ gold hardware!!!!!! Wish me luck then!! Anyway, here is the look of me today!!! I must say it is hard to resist loving Alexander Wang Coco Duffel bag and obviously HE is getting so popular this season. A girl ran to me when we were crossing an intersection in SF city today just because she wants to know where did I get the Coco Duffel bag!!!! lol I am glad I had a fur vest on... it gets so chilly in SF city! I am only holding a pair of Alexander Wang's combat black heels... sat...
