Strawberry Loves to Dance....

We are now in Paris and I have tried to upload my pictures on Photobuket unsuccessfully the past couple of days thus the delay.  Today I decided to upload through Blogger itself.  I have never bought these many Hermes in a very short period of time. Some of them are purchased per friend's request and rest are my loot. There are so many stories behind those treasure hunt but I can only share on FB.  Some photos of Hermes' bags are taken under SA's permission but even that I don't think it is appropriate to post them outrageously in public.  This is what I can tel'ya about my haul. I bought myself a Suffre Kelly wallet, a small gold leather cards holder, a surprisingly reward of Bleu de Galice Kelly 35 CM. It is my lucky trip and SA's mercy that I now have a Kelly in my Hermes' collection. Both Suffre and Bleu de Calice are new colors of this year and they are just beyond gorgeous in my eyes. Ecstatic is the word I can describe my mood!!!! I fou...

We are flying with BA to Marseille this afternoon around 5 PM. I did a Power Yoga this morning, packed and had my jet-setting outfit ready. I finally feel that I can take a break after a crazy filming at Sonoma County last week. I posted behind-the-scene pictures on my FB but if you want to grasp a little idea what we were filming about, you can check out "Complex" on FB . (hyperlink) And if you do, please show a little love and "Like" our page. Thank you.  I guarantee you will be wondering what am I doing with a purple wig in a military suit. Ha~~  As far as my jet-setting outfit is concerned, I think it is perfect.  Comfortable, soft, and wrinkle-proof. Ah, not that it won't wrinkle, it is just I wouldn't care if it wrinkled. Don't you think light scarf, a fedora and my one-of-a-kind Converse sneakers are uber chic already?!!!  Last but not least, I promise that I will update my blog more often while I am in France so stay tuned!! Ciao~ ...

It certainly is getting warmer here in the peninsula but I found myself still browsing Johnathan Saunders' jumper the other day. Am I preparing for this fall/winter already?  I don't know! But one thing I do know myself is I guess I was sick of all the busy prints and mix-n'-match patterns on me already.  Needless to say, I want to wear something completely blank, the basic, the crisp white it is.   PS> Don't forget my super gorgeous BaroQco pendan t giveaway.  Common des Garçon (white blouse with oversized sleeves, padded peter pan collar, cut-out arm pit) Orange Boss denim mini skirt Marni suede green flatform  Prada leather woven clutch  Chanel sunglass Hermes horn necklace  Dries Van Norton printed shirt leather collar with beads Linen blazer  RUGBY white skinny jeans  Hermes stripy heels Hermes twilly scarf Momo's March full sun bracelet   Prada leather woven clutch  Have a white summer. ...

I don't really resell things online but you are welcome to give me a price for it if you are fond of anything in my wardrobe. {Since I just sold my belt to a friend (a blog reader), she gave me this inspiration.  It might be great that someone would appreciate my stuff and give it a try on herself.}  My ODJ Top:   Massimo Dutti white sheer shirt with contrasting bow and collar trim Bottom: Sandra leather pants with gold zipper pulls (bought at Barcelona, Spain)  Accessory: Leather collar with beads Karen Walker tortoise daddy sunglasses Proenza Schouler ps1 large messenger bag  Hermes Croc.Collier De Chien Mykonos 2011 Shoes:  Proenza Schouler runway 09' heels Tip: Match hardware details with the color on your shoes.

I never did head to toe look straight from the runway as I love to mix-n-match my own styles. Like I said, I enjoy to make the style profoundly personal. Besides, style is transformative that  I understand if you yet have the time nor effort to explore your style but when time goes by, I hope you will.   Luxury items cannot build up your style, but taste and wisdom will.  Chanel 2011 dress, Hermes Ostrich belt with gold buckle, DVF wool gray vest, Burberry baby blue trench, Proenza Schouler PS1 yellow clutch, Betsy Johnson knit cap, J Crew necklace, Chanel 08' two tone tights, Chanel 11' cutout mash peep toe booties  2012 Chanel fall navy/blue rules.

A total dress up from previous very casual outfit!!  Christian Louboutin heels + Chanel 11' Fantasy Garden tweed bag with charms  Fringe Rave....  When I was in our Taipei trip last week, couple of my friends wore fringe tops/tanks and I thought it is such a fun look. They are not such a bold dresser comparing to me but I guess as long as you get the flavor of wearing a particular kind of style, and be comfortable in it, it doesn't matter what other people think.  Pic. taken from Allsaints store in San Francisco.  Chanel Tassel coat + Garden tweed = Divine  (Whowhatwhere.com) Moooi design  {Light shade Shade D70: Semi-transparant Mirror Film Shade, Metal Frame Structure}  I found another two wall cones which has similar ideas/design as the shade from Moooi to match up the look along my stairs.   Next.... shall make fun cookies with my kids... ^^ xoxo Rachel 

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 !

I had two new show acquisitions this month. One is Chanel mesh booties and the other one is Chloe's gray/taupe/purple tall boots. The golden bangles are gifts from NM. I believe I can stay away from searching for the perfect Chloe's short and tall boots for couple years as I got both of them!!! Hooray!! Dark brown Chloe boots. It is such a beautiful color, both me and Isabel think it has gray, taupe and a tint of purple tone on them. I love how Chloe's boots snuggled all around my feet!! I always admire the casual chic look of Chloe's boots. New version of squared "C" buckles on Chloe boots!! Today is Saturday and I went to my acting class in SF city. I wore my Chanel booties and no surprises I got compliments for the booties from my classmates. :) I don't think no one could ever stop noticing this beauty. :) I, as usual, asked my classmates and the teacher, Mr. Greg, for their pictures. They are so confused at the beginning that why do I always have that ...
