Strong Suiting + Bare-Midriffs Look

Here is the nicely tailored suits of Stella McCartney pre-spring 2011 runway Jacquard suits at Outnet.com. The color is rusty rose which is not just perfect for spring, but also the textured jacquard fabric makes this suits a classic keeper!

Love it~

I especially love the wide cuff of this pants. Both the sharp-edged collar and wide-cuff hems give this suiting look a big attitude.

I have to confess, with this bare-midriff look, I dare to eat large~~~

Get ready for Monday, sleep tight.

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!

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...
