Milano - Valentino for GAP!!

DH wants to drive all the way to Milan but I insisted that we stick w/ our original plan --- EuroStar all the way and it takes less than 2 hours.

Here is a whole look w/ Missoni black collar!

Are you ready for this Christmas yet?

DH said that I am doing free advertising for Chanel... lol.

Thanks to Ceci, my friend from Canada, who tells me this exciting collision of Valentino For GAP!! I also stopped by HM in Milan to check out Lanvin for HM collection. I saw they still have some leopard heels and dresses available in the store.

It is very big in Milan and packed w/ people!! I guess everyone is busy shopping for Christmas gifts already!

VALENTINO For GAP

Jacket Euro 149; Cargo pants Euro 139 (or so)

I seldom try out a whole outfit look (Jacket + cargo pants) but I kind of liking this whole military green ruffle all over urban chic.

Yes, shorts again!! My signature look in Italy! ^^

There is always history in Italy and there is always fashion involved in Milan! We are in front of Duomo which is the 3rd largest church in the world!

Now I am going to zzzz...z..z...

We almost finished our Europe trip...

Ah, Mia, I am so sorry that I read your message after I was back in hotel. Besides, the size goes by xs, s/p, ... so I am not sure if size M or L would fit you perfectly.

I am very very sorry...that I wish I'd also be able to grab one for you... I know you will be (probably) the ONLY one wearing that V for GAP jacket in HK. ^O^

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...
