All Year Around Wardrobe!!

In California, we really just need to rotate wearing our wardrobe as we pretty much need all of them all year around!! Well, sort of, I mean, as long as you layer them smartly!!

That also being said, we should feel pretty good about living in California because we also need new clothes to keep our looks fresh while doing the rotation with our old wardrobe. {That's right, pour us with the cruise and spring 2012 collection, please~~}

Don't you always want to find something new and keep the excitement in life??

My ODJ

Watson tan Cape (still available in store and online)

Ralph Lauren camel turtleneck

Helmut Lang asymmetrical cut tonic/dress

Y-3 gray leggings

leather collar with beads (similar here and here)

Celine tote

Prada minimalist sunglasses 11'

Givenchy wedge ankle boots with chain 09'

Turtleneck is a must for fall and winter layering, you can stock up a whole rainbow color for yourself. {And you can thank me later~}

What's your favorite past-season piece in your wardrobe?
Work it into this winter!
xoxo Rachel

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!!

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.
