Sensational & Avant-garde!!

Pei and I were in the SF city on Thursday. She never pays the visit on Lilith  in Fillmore st. and I haven't been back since their entire S/S 2010 collection go on sale, so off we went together.

Looking at this picture, I suddenly realized that I am getting older/wrinklier/wiser/more content w/ life which accompanies by my children's growing up is such a blessing!!

Thanks to Pei's BIG help (especially when she didn't bring along his son) that my kids didn't starve when I was busy ....... w/ everything! ^O^
(On HER: Max Co. ombre' Poncho, free people tiered dress, Florentine and Baker lace-up boots, Celine distressed lambskin boogie)

I was trying out the velvet pants as Zoe had on. (Geez, what had happened to my hair....)

 Isn't this Jesper Cape sensational ??

MY new tights fave. FALKE!
I am very impressed w/ their den 20 matte tights as I don't feel they would be snagged easily. 


Pei is on a family vacation to Florida and she bought a lot of rompers for this trip. As you know, it is probably the same long spell of hot weather down in Florida as in LA right now!!! 

Speaking of romper, I just remembered the 101 romper which I almost forgot all about it until Pei mentioned that she likes the DEAL of it.... $19.99!! ^^

No matter how hard I tried to pull down the romper, the black mini dress will show anyway...so I think..... WHY NOT just let it be! ^O^ 


Photobucket
DO you ever think this romper is too short for my height as I do? 


NOT ANYMORE!!!!!


WHY??


Photobucket
Because I had a black mini dress (By Stella McCartney) underneath which peek out from the bottom of my romper!

Hope you are having a great weekend!

You look great here. Can I ask where you got your brown boots from?
The leather shorts are gorgeous!!! I love that outfit. It looks so biker chic and get so feminine. So stylish!

haha..when I look at that kind of tights - I just packed a pair of DIM (with lace aspect garter) in my suitcase. Plus I packed many fishnet stockings as well...I hope they will suit the ever changing SF weather..

The miniskit under the "short" romper is a great idea! I've created a list of what I'm going to wear the next 2 weeks - lots of mix & match for sure =) Thanks for your suggestions earlier!
Hi, Mona: ^^ thanks.

Hope you had a fruitful weekend as well. I am changing two rooms in downstairs' floor to hardwood floor next two week or so. I am moving books out of bookcase and clear the floor..and geez, those books are heavy and I decided to recycle lots of my fashion magazines!! ^^ I guess I rarely go back to read them when new fashion and internet is much more convenient.
Thanks, Janet. I think I am IN already and I can't wait to see if I get lucky!! ^^
Hi, Ally:
The brown boot is from Chole 09'. They always have these coveted boots w/ their signature buckle at side every year. (I think) ^^
Hi, FashionFirst girl:
Thank you.

Oh, you know what, I cannot become Polyvore addict...as my eyes get too sore when spending hours on drag and drop to complete an entire outfit...then I have to choose a background....or the music... So I think I only play couple times then... quit!! ^^

However, you have fun playing w/ those fun tools and see those pretty stuff on polyvore.
Hey, Ceci:

It is about time that you finish your packing!! Please do bring scarf and leather jacket/trench coat/ sweater cause' they are easily styled in ever changing weather in SF city. ^^

I don't know if garter is OK to show but I know my black mini skirt/dress is ok to be seen from underneath. ^O^ One more thing, flat and boots (not so high) is great walking around in the city!!

Happy packing, btw!

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
