Debut of Miu Miu studded pump 2010!

Since day 1 that I bought myself a coffee machine Jura ENA 5 , I am used to have a cup of coffee at home before I go out.   I think it is a good habit that I limit myself to drink less than 2 cups of coffee a day and avoid using store cups/lids by drinking out of my portable mug. ..... Doing very little help to save the earth...I assume!!  Obviously, not today though!!  ^^ Today I have to visit my friend, Renee, in SF city before she flies out to Shanghai on Sunday. But first thing first that I have to do some house chores such as putting away my Halloween decor. (see, we are even ahead of the holidays!), vacuuming the floor, washing our micro-suede sofa covers since we had guests over for Halloween parties   ( I am also a semi-hygenic freak.) and my duvet cover.  Don't you just love the clean and crisp scent of cleaning sheets/sofa!!  My normal breakfast: Coffee and English Muffin or any sweet pastry that I can get myself one.  My ODJ 1.

Our Parents' Day Starts w/ Kid's School Halloween Party !!! (Updated)

M y day didn't end at 8 PM after my Zumba dance yesterday !  There are cheese/ham/lettus on Hawaii sweet buns, tuna melt w/ fuji apples sandwiches, (vega) Fuji apples w/ cucumber on l emon butter jelly sandwiches. I signed up for making sandwiches for my son's class, bringing goodies for Abby's whole classmates and fresh-cut fruits w/ muffins to Ilona's class. I think I am trying to be fair to all my 3 children that once I participate ONE, i'd be involved in all 3 of their class parties!! Our day today starts w/ Niel's first costume parade at school!! Niel's costume parade at 8:15 AM. ..which is a big deal to me that I normally am playing my make-up and dress-up at home by myself during that time! Lol.  Rushing to another school~ Vroom ~ Vroom~ Ilona's 2nd costume parade around 9:30 AM.  This is the most creative (from store bought) costume ever~~ w/ that hand-made mail box!! ^^ Ilona's 2nd costume of the year - TInker Bell!

Miscellaneous!

I think I am famous among my friends for my prowess on taking any fashion trend and trying it on myself.  Can't deny it. I love challenge if I had the chance.  What NOW? Cathy bought me and herself a turban but I have not yet had the chance to try it on (on the way shipping to us)..... but a scarf would do the same trick!! ^^ I tied turban w/ Hermes hot air balloon silk scarf! I don't know why I'd bite Cathy's trick of wearing this turban hat to my son's school and around on the street....  Please use your imagination to put this lower puzzle w/ my upper torso !! lol. I am keeping this for my mom until~~  Chanel red 10A Classic jumbo w/ blue/purple undertone! Friend asked why I'd buy so many " square " shapes of Chanel flaps.... aren't they boring?!  No, of course NOT, I said.  I can carry them in many ways. Besides, t hey are  covetable for  the fact of their classic looks which also  makes them perennial favorit

Take on Sheer Trend!

Girls all have a monthly thing~ lol Today I have a big craving for sweetness and I am glad that I am not eating ALONE! Today is such a beautiful day in Saratoga city! I finished the whole piece of traditional bread pudding~~ it really is infused w/ strong bourbon in the sauce.  Looks like I had way too much Kahlua coffee there~~  ps. I am not an alcoholic...doesn't even come close~~~  ^O^ My girl friends share another dessert - Tiramisu.  I don't normally share dessert if I really had that kind of craving!! I like to have my WHOLE thing for myself! Thanks to Cathy and Vivian that they two are being dragged walking around the town by me! If I had a pair of riding shorts, I would have totally taken on that style and wear it inside my polka dot sheer dress. lol Friends told me that they are shopping inside their wardrobe .... that's really a good thing! But you know, it also means that you should donate some old clothes while you sho

Seductive- At Work n' on mommy/wife duty!!

Bo ss leopard haltered blouse, Kapital cotton blazer, HM wool pencil skirt, black sheer tights, Chanel 10A Rouge/Orange reissue, navy oxford heels.  If I have to go in the office w/ DH, this is what I'd wear at work.  Don't you think this looks conservative, professional and seductive (to my DH since I am work w/ him) all in one!!? ^^ I'd wear anything that delights myself, others ..... and still be appropriate even when I am only doing my grocery shopping! Finally, the debut of Alaia golden lace-up heels!! Romeo n' Julia contour pink dress, Two toned slouchy pocket cardigan, J crew studded belt, mocha knitting scarf, lilith polka dot carry-all bag, Alaia golden lace up heels. I found this dress awful big in size M, so I pinned the bottom hem to make more "bubbly" and "asymmetrical" look! Now let's talk about my two over the top heels!! I found this version of Miu Miu  Studded pump which only has heels paved w/ st

Miu Miu Studded Pump 2010!

I am out of words for this Miu Miu pair!! Other than the studs, I love the rough look on this leather!  I have not had the chance to walk around in them but I assume they are as comfortable as my Golden lace-up Alaia heels!!!  I am so happy that I found so many gorgeous heels! I'd wish I were a spider to have 8 legs...haha... ~~ :P  See you later.  xoxo Rachel
