Bouclé-tweed Cropped Pants..... a classic look is never been this trendy!!

I seldom wear pants and if I do, I will look for tapered, cropped, flared, cuffed, drapery folded........ as many details as I can find. I don't wear plain clothes very often which doesn't suit my personality anyway. 


This is my first boucle-tweed cafe' capri from J Crew and the only tweed pants I have as a matter of fact. It is very eye-catching with its mixed olive/yellow/green wool threads and very comfortable.


Here is the simple look of me paring color blocking shirt with the pants. As I challenge myself that I should be able to find two pairs of shoes to complete my look to break that spell "Women are always short of one pair/the best pair of shoes to go with their outfit!!" { My hubby will be so proud of me... haha... }


Alexander McQueen black satin square toe heels 

Chiffon color blocking shirt, J Crew Cafe Capri, Proenza Schouler yellow PS1 clutch, Betsy Johnson pearl earrings with checkered bow, J Crew patent green skinny belt, Lu Lu frost for J Crew art decor. necklace 

 Betsy Johnson satin electrical blue with bow heels

I am playing the looks of my jackets/blazers!!! 
Talbots petite white + navy boucle cropped jacket 

 Haider Ackermann 11' jewel green satin oversized shirt 

Agnes' b tweed collarless jacket 
(I took this jacket for alternation immediately after seeing this picture..... grr... )

St. John sequins-like discs blazer with shoulder paddings 

Pierre Balmain blazer 

I was thinking of donating some of those past season jackets but maybe I should keep them for another season just in case... Since "fashion comes around and goes around", right?!!

Oh, I will have a Shopbop Gift Card give away soon, stay tuned!!

Yes, it is definitely cold, but not too bad! I missed last two winters here (was in US), but I am told that the winter is very mild compared to last year.

So, have no fears and definitely come over :)

A Posh Trousers Look plus SmashBox.

First off, I am not a make-up guru but I try to do a nature and precise look whenever I committed to do "make-up". The foundation is crucial but not necessary if you already have a porcelain-quality skin. I am very dedicated to fight off the aging process and look for ways to keep up a youthful look. Recently, I have been obsessed with essential oils. Lavender, Rose, Frankincense, Bergamot, Lemongrass ...etc. to name a few. Not only do I use them in my diffuser, but also on my skin. I am telling you that the emollient effect of essential oils does to your skin is incredible!! Well, give it a try yourself and thank me later. Alright, the point is I want to share with you the amazing Smashbox primer I had on last Saturday. I dabbed it all over my face "after" my application of sunblocks. Let sunblocks dry a bit before next steps. The Primer will provide a shield prior your foundation application. I don't normally apply...
