Flat-shionable!

I noticed I wear flats a lot since the beginning of this year. I had Valentino rockstuds flats, and an addition of Charlotte Olympia libra sign flats this year. Now I am digging in more flats.  One of the reasons is probably now i am keen to practice yoga which emphasizes on good body alignment and posture which made me have stronger self-awarness when selecting my shoes. Another reason is flats are more and more attractive in their designs and versatility. They are so unbelievable fashionable. Nevertheless, heels are still invincible when you want that extra attitude or that extra height. Ha~  Here I found a pair which is Silver, love; Embroidery, love; Flat, love; Jenni Kayne, love, love, love!!! ^O^  xoxo Rachel 

My memorable photo and a face-lift for Zara blazer.

I bought this Zara shoulder patch embroidery blazer while I was in Taipei during summer. Because I needed a black blazer quick for the bathing suit look that I did't really have time to look for a good one. Besides, I have way too many black blazers in my home in USA already that I refuse to shed big bucks for more blazers.  As far as the styles goes, I like the embroidery all over and the shoulder details but I am not so fond of the fitted but not tailored cutting.  Thus, I decided to give it a face-lift by removing its sleeves. Now instead of hiding unloved blazer in the corner of my closet, I think I like the new edgier and custom look even more.   As for this bathing suit photo, I did for myself for a lifetime memory.  Me in one piece bathing suit and Zara blazer.  Photographer: Josh Chang   Make-up artist: Sunny Hsu   Make-up assistant: Stella Chiu  Model: Rachel Cheng   The same Zara blazer.  The new Cropped ...

Hand-made decor.

I constantly improvising our home decor. or moving around the furniture setting to give us and our guests a refreshing feel every now and then. Yes... another task to keep myself even busier. I appreciate hand-made stuff and I'd sew myself everything if I know how to! But since I am not, so I am glad there are so many artisans who knows so much about "embroidery"!!  If you are looking for cute and unique handmade decoration, Monkey and Squirrel has very cute stuff for you. Etsy Find: Wall floral decor from Monkey and squirrel.  Can you see that pretty wall floral decor is almost the same pattern as my pillow. ^^ This morning I took off an old beaded embroidery from a not-being-loved sweater and sew it on my leggings.  Isn't this embroidery the prettiest little thing!! What's your recent DIY project? xoxo Rachel
