Modern Pop Art Fashion (Part I)!

It is almost my dear friend, Cathy, birthday. Thus, a celebration is a must!!  We love all sorts of celebration, it is a perfect excuse for us to get together, an excuse to buy new clothes, and an excuse to do extra chores in the house while anticipating the upcoming girls' night out. lol... Our non-conventional celebration is each birthday girl have to pick a theme for us to dress up and a restaurant for attending the party. 

This time, Cathy picked POP ART as the theme. Ugh~~~~ You know it is a tough one, right? Tough for me in a sense that when is the last time I wore a GIANT logo or a printed popular idol on me... hum... I pondered so long that I cannot recall at all. NO,... nada...never!! Therefore, the only approach for me is patterns, bright colors and modern and substantial enough to spot it right away as POP ART. 

Obviously, the outfit I worn today is my modern attempt into the pop art world. I clashed all popular patterns of chains, stripes, argyle and bows. I love my outfit and I think it is very daring. However, it is not as fun and bright as I expected.  Therefore, I am back to where I started, grrr...... nothing. I will have to come up something really bright and absolutely no commercial prints ASAP for this saturday!!!  And for sure I will share our POP ART outfits with you after Saturday! Stay Tuned!!!!

Hi Rachel,

I somehow came upon your blog and spent the whole weekend browsing through your posts. Very amazing that you are a mom and yet still look so good and have such inspiration to put amazing outfits together.
Jealous of all the Chanel flaps you have. All the resissue's. :)
Also love seeing your travel photos as I often visit the same place and it's nice to see where I can visit the next time I visit.

Continue the good work with your blog and family. I am going to follow you and come back to visit.


Cheers, Jacquie

Thank you, dear Jacquie. I enjoy all the inspiration I surf on the Internet and then implement the idea with my clothes. It's fun, isn't it!? I update my FB instantly almost every hour/everyday but not on my blog lately. But I ll try to catch up my fast paced life activities for my blog since I know there is friend out there like u waiting to get inspired too. ^_^

Have a fab. Day!

I have a question for you Rachel. :)
I like your Shui Chen sweater and thinking of getting one myself. I get itchy easily from mohair, etc..
Is the material on this Shui Chen sweater made of wool/cashmere? Is it itchy? soft? Comfy?
Your feedback would be great.
thanks, J
Hi Jacquine:
it is Alpaca wool, but lined with charmuse. If u are talking about the crawl neck sleeveless sweater not the poncho I later scored! If u are interested, go to her website and tell her u are my friend from blog and maybe she can give u a friend discount! ^_^

Make a Wish w/ Russia Babushka doll!!

My friend, Michelle asked me about my opinion of Chanel Babushka doll's necklace once and I said "Not worth getting it"!! Now I am not so sure if I would say the same thing to this adorable babushka doll clutch!! lol However, even I want to find it, this doll clutch is probably long gone by now!! I have a real Russia Babushka doll made in Russia which is a gift from 10 years ago! I couldn't find the same one in USA since this set of 15 nesting dolls are truly intricate!! This is the biggest one which has the most exquisite engraving. Total 15 of them! (2 are missing from the pic.) I heard that you can make a wish w/ these nesting dolls. If your wish comes true, you can open one until all 15 are all open!! I never made any wish w/ them, guess I was too realistic of a person myself. I don't know if each engraved temple/castle on the dolls represents something. You can't open the smallest one which is only the size of the little finger nail. I adore those golde

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 !

Wedge + Clog ! MINE is Clog + Heel!

pic. courtesy from WhoWhatWhere website. I came across this Max Mara clog heels. I can't help myself buying it. Now I am very excited.....why? Cause' it is extraordinary. I love the golden studded along the leather and since I don't like wedge too much, this stiletto is perfect for me. So, did you see the bottom picture to the right? Kate Olsen!!? or Dree Hemingway's looks might work w/ Max Mara clog heels. ( Whose pic. is the very first one w/ fuchsia vest) Normally I am not a copy cat, but this time, I will see if I have something similar like what she wears w/. Yes, that will be a good start to tackle this pair of heels.
