Me, A lazy Day Vs. Busy Runway fall 2010!


Just when I said that I am not a minimalist in dressing-up, I am thrilled to see that this fall's runway certainly granted my wish!! 


All the gold color, busy layering, fur and animal prints which is almost always associated w/ GOLD almost take over the runway show!!

If I ever wore that kind of tights, my kids probably would ask me if I am a bat woman!! lol

Balmain






Is this a bit too much...animal print w/ that big-shouldered silhouette? ^O^
What could possibly happen if a tamer dresses like that w/ a whip in hand? ........ :P

Dries Van Noten
Animal prints + men's wear........ hum.... Purr or Roar?!!




I like this better... animal print w/ pencil skirt ....... make it a woman's skirt suit instead!! ^O^

So I was a bit tired w/ dressing me up, Today is a time out for me!

I absolutely adore the first 4 looks from Balmain, especially the gold gold gold! I love how those 4 outfits are wearable on a daily basis yet still so fashionable.
Also , Ilona's little red riding hood look is too cute!

Hi, LS: yes, that Balmain look seems very sharp n' chic in every way. However, I think I am kind tired of the big-shouldered bodice look now. :P

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!!

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...
