This year, my winter white is not so WHITE anymore. And interesting thing is that I always wear my winter white w/ reference from Chanel or like this year, another winter white look w/ this HUGE statement piece: Chanel tweed and rabbit fur boots!!

All the stores are bypassing Thanksgiving and ostentatiously displaying all sorts of Christmas ornaments. Cathy and I already went out for Christmas shopping at Campbell downtown and she got all of us girls very cute ones.....Since I am w/ her so I get to take IT home EARLIER!!! ~~ ^O^

Cathy, you know I wouldn't be satisfied just w/ those two CC ornaments!

When what to my wondering eye should appear?
Snow come and Chanel ornaments hang all over the tree!~ lol.

Golden yellow is my Christmas tree's main color!

The little Christmas tree inside the bell glass is gifted from Cathy... see that empty photo frame??..... That's reserved for our Italy trip picture after we are back!!

The Tiffany blue birds side table lamp is gifted by Judy for Ilona!

Ilona: a look w/ mouth full!! ^^

Renee gifted me "02C" Chanel black short sleeves pull-over. (I'd assume it is her treasure hunt way back then~~ ^^)
I have another treasure hunt myself at thrift store couple months ago: 02P camellia vest. I think they are a perfect pair and additionally paired w/ a black pleated skirt.... Voila~ 


Why everyone gifted so early? We are only a vacation AWAY... and we will be back way before Christmas! ^^

The year went by so fast. That means I'm almost over with my semester, a lot study ahead of me for my finals though. Awww...how i love this time of the year. The CC christmas tree is insane. Ilone is so cute! Loving your outfits here, particularly the first one.

Love this post, makes me think of Christmas and New Year, which are right around the corner! The decorations are just adorable, especially the little Christmas tree in a glass bubble.

The Chanel boots are gorgeous on you! I don't think a lot of people can pull this look, but you do it so well!

Can't wait to see the modeling pictures of your 2 other Chanel tops that you mention in this post.

When are you leaving for your trip?

Have a fantastic time there!
Hi, Claud:
Hope you do all your finals well. ^^ i have couple friends go for their Master/self-advancement study... and they are all busy studying too.

Kids grow so fast and I can't believe all my kids go to school and now Ilona loved her school too!!

What a year that hope everyone has a fruitful year already!
Thanks, Meipinggg!!
We don't have snow here neither... only in the mountains!

What's your Christmas plan, dear?
I know, Julia. Suddenly everywhere you see is Christmas tree..... that I almost we are just stepping in Nov. and Thanksgiving is not yet coming.

Ah, I have to say Happy Birthday TO you in advance and may you have a fun birthday too.

I know you probably like that Gray outfit the most. For me, it is hard to believe gray has so many shades and for me to like it so much now. ^^
Hi, Mona:

We are leaving this weekend. I know london is so COLD but not sure about the weather in Rome, Milan... I couldn't tell from Satoralist blog since he is in SPAIN right now? haha.... I have to search a bit what people wear in Italy NOW!! ^^

YOu know, Chanel is really a style icon that I'd always refer back no matter how other trendy style comes and goes every year!! Don't you think so?

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

Birthday Gift from My Dearest Darling!! Oh, Hermes!!
