Hear Fashion, Breath Style: From Pleated Skirt to Man's Suit.

I am a make-up artist for a TV production currently which we almost finish our first episode. I can't reveal what it is but I can tell you it is an interesting life style of documentary film in San Francisco. And to tell you some more, it is not fashion but it is certainly an omnipresent trend in the big cities. Just like Fashion, we see it everyday and we wear it everyday except some has superb style, some is still evolving his/her way trying to find a personal look of him/herself.  I am grateful for being able to do whatever I am passionate about and I am also grateful that I don't have to compromise myself to earn a living through million other ways and struggle. But I do hope I can be great at what I am enthusiastic about and eventually make a living out of it. We are trying our best doing self-improving everyday, right???? I hope you keep up your dreams and never go far from it.  By the way, dress-up to please is almost my staple, so I am not sure I am into ...

Holiday Party Candy Pop Look.

Holiday Party Look #2: A colorful sequined top assure you are the party spotlight.

The Master of Layering!!

We 4 girls are going to Vegas next week but one of us is missing from this trip!! What a bummer!!! We probably will plan another Europe trip just to make up to "HER"!! {Hopefully, our hubbies won't want a divorce...^O^}  I am going to do a Shopbop GC giveaway by this weekend and it probably will carry on all the way till 11/22 the day after my Vegas trip. So please bear with me for couple more days. Meanwhile, since you guys like the break down tutorial of layering, here I did it again. Personally, I think it is fun for me as I can really see how many pieces I put on myself whether will it be an extra gloves or two layers of skirts or pants, the purpose is to keep ourselves warm as well as looking fresh in all the layers and colors, eh??! Basic piece: Orange Hugo Boss plum turtle neck { yes, it is time to pull out your turtle neck.},  J Crew Cafe Capri {online is having 20% off today code : STAYWARM } , J Crew patent green belt, gray textured socks, Marni platform...

Winter is never been this colorful and playful!!

After painting the soffit of my kitchen green, I found myself a new color frenzy.  So now I am in a phase of being crazy about green. It all starts from my sage green hairband which I intended to cover my two blisters at forehead.   { Can I say that I am Self-inspired by that? }  The color palette is sure more colorful than ever on this season's runway and I am glad that we have so many options to dress ourselves in colors in winter time!!  Yesterday I was trying a cape/poncho from J Crew but since this style is secondly marked down, they really don't have many sizes left to choose from. Therefore, I tried on size Medium and didn't like the slouchy drop around my shoulders so I passed it. {It really is a great deal of additional 30% off from current $99.} The Herringbone pattern is nice and always a classic. I want to complete my houndstooth Marc by Marc Jacobs green dress look with an oversized clutch. However, all I have is green one from Zara whic...
