Trend Irrelevant, Fashion Connected!!

My friend, Elfi Altendofer, always makes gorgeous and bold necklaces! I couldn't wait to get my hands on her newest pieces!! ^^  I had her custom-make two necklaces for one with pink beads on safety pin and the other with yellow spacers. The outcome of the looks are intricate and one-of-a-kind luxury!

I always have my own interpretation of edge, fun and urban twisted look, as you know!

  Yu gave me the white butterfly patterned lace legging which is too tight to fit me but my solutions is have the legs cut-off and trim the edges as they now are my arm/leg warmers and thus the "bottom" becomes my "SHORTS" for this look!!!

Rachel, I adore urban look #1!!!

I hv a question, when ur kids were little, did u wear heels to go out with them? I mean when u were on ur own. I have hard time dressing up with a 5 months old in hand.

Love that fuchsia necklace. you look fab.
Hi, Catherine:
You know, one of my personal philosophy is to "make everything work" as much possible as I can. Yu gifted me those lace leggings and it would hurt me or even her if it didn't really work out on me....so ideas pop in. That's almost how I see everything in life...as I am a pathetic optimist sometimes! :P

Thanks, I love that fuchsia that really flatters my skin tone as well. ^^
No, Chocolaine, I don't wear stiletto while my baby are only 5 month old..I'd say that will probably too much to handle ... I had my second one while Niel (eldest son) is only 4 mon. old so wedge is the best I can walk in with. But as they grow older, like 3 years old, I tell them constantly that please follow me and hold my hands as I can't chase you around... you know, kids nowadays are smart that they know you'd chase them if you just continuously doing it and act panic whenever they run around. They play a fool out of you... :p

Anyway, my point is : relax and wear something "with height" but not necessary in HEELS if you are not comfortable with. This way, give you and your kids a "sign" that eventually you will walk back in heels in no time!! ^^

Ah, enjoy the time with your precious!! Especially he is your first.
Thank you, Savvy Gal. I am glad you like that fuchsia necklace and I will let my friend, Elfi, knows about your compliments.
