Strawberry Loves to Dance....

Today's lunch at The Village at Santana Row w/ Cathy. I haven't told my DH that I bought this Chloe Sally yet, so today is the day. Well, I only bought it yesterday so I am not trying to hide it from him anyway. :) I placed my orange Sally aside by my matte white Chanel reissue since I carried it out yesterday. DH came home and finally saw it and asked. I told him that it is on sale and really is not a big spending for $700 while it, in fact, is $1148 before tax. lol Although there is $400 lie there I know it's a necessary. White lie? YES!! I know for $400 less than the real price I told him will buy me/us a peaceful weekend and he won't feel the "pressure" at all. hahahahahaha.... Between me and DH, I think he nags a lot...I mean a lot no matter big or small things!!! haha...... I have a pair of same shade orange slingback sandal from Michael Michael Kors. Then I think Luna Stella gladiator heels might work w/ Sally in a fun way. I think the more you carry...

You must heard of Stocking Up Your Favorite Cosmetics NOW when things on sale all the time!! The normal shelf life of any cosmetics is 5 years w/o open. I don't really stock up anything but make-up remover. I can NOT PUTTING ON ANY CREAM or MAKE-UPS for a week but I certainly can't sleep w/ the make-ups on ONE NIGHT. lol It'll be like I am doing the opposite to my skin .... applying all the serum to fight for losing collagen while leaving chemical to age my skin at the same time. Besides, what's the point of stocking up all the creams when they constantly go on sale these days and at certain point you might end of forgetting you already had them!!! For things such as clothes, shoes, and bags....I never stock them up. Not even for ONE month!!! Maybe it is because I don't have big wardrobe to rotate so I wear NEW BUY right away. I konw lots of my darling gal friends have way too many clothes, shoes than I do. They can always dig out NEW/UNWORE stuff to wear and ...

I want this Chloe purple Sally when it first came out; However, I told myself that I am staying w/ Chanel period so I didn't plan to buy it but I appreciate its muted elegance ever since. I didn't know the purple and the orange Sally go on sale since I am just back from vacation. But, you know, during the sale season, you really should just stay home, otherwise, you will end of liking me, accidentally bought this gorgeous Chloe orange Sally home today. Since it is a very "challenging", and "rich" orange, I have no clue how should I pull off the bag....I need more inspiration. I searched online but didn't see any celebrity carrying an orange Sally and even only a few carrying true orange bag. Oh....well, I think I will start from black ensemble pairing it w/ my Hermes ostrich belt then. Can't go wrong w/ anything black!! Luckily, this orange Sally has double compartments which might even fit a bit more than Chanel class medium flap or reissue bag. ...

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.

How many friends do you need? I love making friends after I moved here in USA, also after I am independent from my original family. I seem cannot stop making new friends now. I would assume my mom definitely has something to do w/ it. When I was young, I focus on pursuing my education. My mom said, you don't need many friends, just concentrate on your study, ONE day, you will make friends of your own. She also is very selective about friends around me. So, I listened to her. I seldom invite friends home since my mom disapproved it most of the time. Then I study a lot other than my other activities which would not have to have friends involved. I guess most of Asia family is like my family. Study hard is the only way to lead you a successful life in the future. Well, I am glad I turn into "me" just fine w/o having a social disability. hahahaha......... And now I want to make lots of, lots of circles of friends!! I invited friends for party a lot and even my DH can't ...

I normally won't wear heels during days in Taipei since I sweat a lot. I believe most celebrities don't wear heels during the day neither since they would dress up so much w/ heels more during the night when they go dinner, shopping, an interview or go to the lounge. Celebrities like to look effortless chic during the day when they are not "on duty". :) Then, they want to look very posh, absolutely gorgeous to others at night when they are ready to show their faces in public. @ I am not a celebrity for sure, but I do find myself dress differently from day to night in Taipei. It simply is because I sweat too much during the day. lol hahah..... By the way, I like sweating as I do exercise, but rest of the day, I'd like to keep myself dry and fresh. So I don't do hot yoga at all....I feel that I don't get to exercise that much but sweat!!! :) .......................................................................................... Why do I wear that cape...

We 3 family went to 皇后鎮森林 located at Taipei suburban (台北縣三峽鎮 ) on Sun. I never even been to that small town when I lived in Taipei and I am glad that now we discovered this nice country side through my used-to-be coworker-- Mandy and her friend. Nice and cool river water. They have swimming pool and river down the resort for different water fun for kids. You even can camp and B.B.Q. there. When we were there on Sun. it was very hot so I can't imagine myself B.B.Q. or even camp over night there......:P I told my DH that if one day, he feels like teaching our kids the real beauty of the nature and wants to go camp w/ them, then I'd ask for one thing. Please leave me in the hotel room where I can have my room service and hot shower any time I want. haha...... Oh, you know how I love traveling, to see the natural beauty and how I love the challenge to travel along w/ kids but I just can't tolerant the heat and bear the thoughts that I would look ugly and smell horrible in th...
