No Constriction.

I said that I need to find a better packing strategy for our weekend retreat in the city. I mean, I can't just pack top and bottom, or tee and skinny jeans...oh, nothing wrong with that, it's just I need an excuse to do more expressive of looks more than just cool casualness.  I wish I had a suitcase that allows me to pull out any outfit in my wardrobe magically. lol...

Anyhow, I did pack my skinny jeans and suede pants with me. They are really easy to work with. A touch of cape, fedora hat and couple accessories, I look as good as wearing season's new pieces that advertised in the fashion magazines. ^_*

The first two looks are perfect for running errands since I am still shopping for furniture for our city apartment.

PS. Today is the last day for an entry of Tatcha $150 or less beauty product giveaway. And there is more Giveaway to come!! Woo hoo~~

1. Monotone pieces

2. Same brand name at top and bottom is no-brainer.
Photobucket Helmut Lang suede top, Helmut Lang suede skinny pants, wool cape, Hermes orange collier de chien, BaroQco Haute Couture jade earrings,  Cotélac yellow straw fedora, Valentino loafer

( Please ignore the pearl milk tea in the backdrop... it is my hubby's thing. He loves those drinks. )

3. A city relaxing but out-of-place sexiness look.  Photobucket
Rebecca Taylor python printed top, Zara python printed wide leg pants, Glory Chen golden heels.

Glory Chen

I just found this local city designer, Glory Chen, and his daughter's collectioin, Joy Chen, for shoes. I bought this distressed golden heels with straps and Chinese knots. Speaking of knots, I adore woven, knots, all the fine craftsmanship especially on heels. Those mesh design is just too sexy to see straight what's underneath... ^O^ in this case, the red toe nails. BTW, the heels is 7inches but super comfortable and easy to work in. Surprises!!!!! 

Enjoy all summer activities.

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!!

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...
