Enthusiasm!!!

Officially it is a 5-day countdown to our Amsterdam and Barcelona trip on 12/25. Even so I still decorate our Christmas tree and around the house, it is just the spirit that I cannot live without during this holiday season.

Besides, kids love it so much when they can actually get their hands down on hanging up those ornaments on the tree and see exciting Santa and angels decoration around the house.

I want to get a pair of gold-plated cuffs to complete a Wonder Woman look but since I am not ready for spending $$$ on those, I decided to get mine at Whole Food Market. They are only $10 each. Even though they are made in sterling silver, they are good enough for me for now.

We even prepare one stocking for our little hamster, Minnie.

Don't you think those cakes are so cute that you dare to eat nor cut them.

I am very proud of myself for collect those pretty glass ornaments over the past 4 years.

Birthday Gift from My Dearest Darling!! Oh, Hermes!!

Oh, Hermes!! Oh, my love!! I mean both my DH and Hermes!! :P My SA insists me saying nothing about this beauty on the website. And I promised her!! The truth is the picture is worth more than a thousand words, let me share my ultimate excitement silently!! A little extra business for my SA goes a long way for our relationship!! Hermes white leather on golden studded cuff can go w/ my Chanel matte white reissue 227 That's my 09 multicolored hot air balloon print Hermes scarf The cuff can also go w/ my 35cm Gris Tourterelle Hermes Togo Birkin !!! I almost faint when I received it!! I believe every rookie of Hermes feels the same as I do!! hahah.... I think I catch the color very true! (even it is indoor at my house at night as you can tell) Ta da~! My newest addition to my little luxury collection!! Again, 35cm Gris Tourterelle Hermes Togo Birkin !

Make It Work!! Isn't that the State of The Art For Fashion Trend!!!

Yes, I would think if you flip through most runway fashion magazines, you would be inspired w/ awe. WHY? Cause' every piece seems work out together just fine...oh, not just fine, it is nearly fabulous looking......on models. :P People constantly ask me if that's ok to wear socks w/ peeptoe heels, mary-jane, sandal heels......etc. and as a matter of fact, I LOVE that style ever since I had memory. ^O^ The only challenge is what kind of socks you choose to go w/ it!! Sheer metallic socks w/ sandal heels. Burberry Possum plays a lot socks w/ sandals platform since last spring. Isn't the lace knee wraps fun!! Christopher Kane's S/S 10 collection uses lots of gingham patterns. Do you think you can still find your grand mom table clothes or old dress to update its look a bit!!? Nothing not to love about those light fabric... so romantic. Louis Vuitton (RIGHT) plays w/ such intensive patterns n' different cuttings...
