What a Colorful Day!!

After Niel and Heidi done their piano recital this noon, we went up to California Academy of Science to meet up with Irene's family. The museum is currently exhibiting snakes and chameleon and all Irene and I can think of is "Python" ...... lol We are drooling over Python PS1 satchel (Proenza Schouler) and we want different shades.

Those are pretty colors that I'd love to see them in PS1. lol

(Pretty Peach + pattern)

(Emerald Green (or darker)

(Neon Green...but not with polka dot lol)

I found this large satchel and absolutely love the understated green of it....but it is stated as "Mauve" which seemly belongs to dirty pink or beige! {I am wondering, pondering....suspiciously!!}

A hamster?

On me: H&M cropped tank, Max Mara weekend boot-cut pants (altered as cuffed capri), Miu Miu leather wedge 11', purple feather hair clip, patterned fabric belt (bought in Indonesia)

On Irene: Marni polka dot tank blouse, some brand of puffy skirt with draw string at hem, black sandals

And I realized that my outfit du jour is coincidently in the same color scheme as this huge snake { pale yellow, beige/khaki, white}!!

A perfect ending for a day: Kung Fu Panda 2!

Have some fun in colors!

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...

Can't Have Enough of Alexander Wang -- The Skirt n' Coco Duffel Bag!!

My parents came yesterday evening...and yes, my mom did bring over the Chanel classic jumbo I bought for her!!! My heart palpitated so fast after seeing her carrying that THEN-Mine-NOW-HERs bag!! lol I really love the classic look of Chanel!!! Well, I know you must think that I could either trade or borrow that classic jumbo from her, but I just don't know how to ASK!! So I think I will wait till next spring and see if boutique, NM or SAKs would order Chanel matte black reissue 226 w/ gold hardware!!!!!! Wish me luck then!! Anyway, here is the look of me today!!! I must say it is hard to resist loving Alexander Wang Coco Duffel bag and obviously HE is getting so popular this season. A girl ran to me when we were crossing an intersection in SF city today just because she wants to know where did I get the Coco Duffel bag!!!! lol I am glad I had a fur vest on... it gets so chilly in SF city! I am only holding a pair of Alexander Wang's combat black heels... sat...
