I love that rustic RL looks on Blake Lively and she is also my current fave. actress.
If you think I am over-dressed, I would say you look naked to me!! haha.. Ok, just an excuse for me to step down!!
I always marvel how intriguing of the looks of Ralph Lauren runway collection every year. I am always a fan of all their collections, black label, blue label .... and even teens RUGBY. I have some pieces from their collection and they never outdated nor disappointed me each time I wore them.
I was just talking to my friends about how I am always over-dressed in someone's eye everyday. The thing is it is just a hobby, it's like a great chef cooks great food or enjoy a great meal everyday even s/he doesn't prepare the food him/herself. Once it becomes a hobby, it is almost hard to break it!! lol
My 5 years ago Miu Miu boots!! Love that distressed look.
It has zipper pulls on both sides, cool!!
Today I can't wait to wear my Ralph Lauren leather vest which I bought last year!!
MY ODJ.

H&M pleated skirt
3. ACCESSORY:
Miu Miu distressed boots
or
Chloe taupe tall boots
I was looking for a distressed cowboy boots couple months ago ... until I remembered this pair!!! Problem solved, my perfect Miu Miu!!
I thought I didn't wear busy enough for the look. Hum.... maybe scarf during the winter!! :P
Nop, I didn't carry my Birkin out .... just thought it might go w/ the look.
Oh, I had to change the leggings to black hosiery as I think Birkin needs a constructed look to make the look well pulled together.
So this is another option....and yes, I love my Chanel matte white reissue day by day!! :)
Ok, that's enough for today's dress-up fun!!!
I guess 2 leather tops (vest & blazer) would keep me warm throughout this winter!!!
hha.... I pull out this look which I came up w/ last year!! Can't believe I blogged this far already!! *,*
That's my Chanel Rodeo Drive black perforated large tote!!! My all time favorite travel bag!!

It's true that the perception of over-dressed or not is definitely in the eye of the beholder, although if you have a passion for fashion, definitely go for it! My DH always tell me that a passion for a hobby or career, etc. comes and go and if you're lucky enough to find that passion for something, enjoy it because life is just too short :)
BTW, love your new suede messenger bag. Have a good weekend!

I think fashion is the only thing that doesn't fade since it evolves every year. :) That's bad news for DH as it is hard to let go of "buying" new stuff. haha..
Oh, I had that messenger bag 2 years ago and my high school pal bought the same one too. It is designed in New York from a small women designer team. :) In New York, you know we can find everything so creative, chic, fabulous looking from any small designer.
thanks, babe!! :)
Hum...I just hang it over the bag hook and place it on the desk so the chain won't drag the bag leaving the mark. I have not "cleaned" it at all so it is probably won't be as shiny as your new one .. but that's the best part of "matte", I think it will give it a nice vintage look after 5 or 8 years but not looking dirty. :)
I am not sure about what's the best cleaner for the bag but I think if I am be careful w/ it, I don't need much efforts of cleaning it. i always think those "cream" would actually damage the leather in time ... besides, it is WHITE. I would buy cream to clean my black boots but maybe not for my matte white reissue!!
Thanks for the tip on the chanel bag, i didnt know the chain and stain the leather, i will hang it up now.
I think YOU JUST SPOT ON ME this afternoon.
.....OMG..
.OMG.......
hha...ok, so which one are you? ?? I didn't pay attention on people around me since I am in a hurry and want to rush back home for DH as he has been very supportive these past few months and i don't want him to be too exhausted on Saturday!!
Ok, I was there after my acting class to get my Chanel earring fixed in NM and return a pair of too small boots in Barneys. (You know, NM have another new pair in the store so we just exchange mine w/ the new pair then NM will send the broken one to repair in Pairs.) I am glad that I don't have to wait just for an earrings.
So,...where exactly did you see me this afternoon//?/ Was I walking to the stores or leaving downtown? haha..I must look very serious and rushy to you then. :)
OH, yes, I think the chain might leave marks on matte white reissue is you have tons of stuff inside the bag..you know, the weight of dragging the bag is bad.
Ok..you must tell me more about where did you see me, ahah..next time, you should yell at me then!! :) ha ha ha...
Ok, heading to cell group meeting in a bit!! Have a great evening!!
Blake is like a girl next door. It is really refreshing seeing her on screen.
I am still catching up w/ Gossip girl...I am currently watching season 2 still. :)
I just checked your blog and that girl from India is very interesting... I like her creativity. :)
Goodness! You hair always look so perfect! What products are u using? Really envious of the glossiness!
I left meg. in your post and best wishes to you!!!
Oh, you know, my DH watches GG w/ me...as I think we have kids, and we are really inspired by those teenagers thoughts/act and learn some tips about parenting (just for the future reference.) hahah... Oh, I must say it even fits the relationship between me and my mom when I was an adolescent. haha....
My hair? Thanks. I always use cream/gel to keep the volume and curl. I love "Conscious" curl cream and it gives your hair a very good definition especially you have pretty curly hair too. :)
Oh..yep, that I figured maybe we were in the garage. You know, when I went back to the garage, I walked around/ up and down between 3rd and 4th floor ... maybe I should have asked you where did I park. hahahah...
Thanks, I wore very formal to my class and I almost can't stay down and doing funny faces/acts when teacher gave us some "action" exercise. You know, when we reach certain age, we don't want to look too silly in "well-tailored" clothes...haha... this week, I will make sure I dress casual then. :)
You know, I think I do spot a litl girl and Dad standing by the car..and in fact, couple couples I spotted w/ lit. kid that day! :) So you guys live in the city then?
DH has to watch kids every Sat. and Abby has Piano class on Sun. so it almost a month since the last time we family went to SF city together. My in-laws are here and they love shopping in the China town so maybe we can go to my Sat. acting class together and let them hanging out in the China town until my class ends. hum...then take kids to the Zoo. :)
