A Big DO!!

A gift-giver on Holidays! --- A BIG DO!
Finally I had almost all the gifts prepared to be wrapped. Say "almost" is because there is always someone that you "kind of" forgot and then you realized soon enough to have an extra gift to give! I even thought of giving my Yoga/TRX teacher a set of holiday Deborah Lippmann nail polish.

Why?

Because she has the most delicate hands and feet I've ever seen (on an adult)... :P sounds like I am a stalker

I bought lots of jewelries from J CREW today to give them to my kids' school teachers. I bet they will be so happy once they open the gifts..... I know I would! ^O^ Other than GC, what elses you guys would give to the teachers for Christmas? I am curious!!!!

I was browsing through Glamour mag. in the evening and see they had several pages talking about the trends for 2011 including Do and Don't! I don't care much about Do and Don't because my wardrobe is based on grace, elegance and decency. But there are couple trends I find interesting and start wondering whether or not such trends will even press all the fashionista's button and become a real life hit!!!

Anyway, those are my personal style DO these two days! ^^

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
