Day 3 after the spider vein surgery (Sclerotherapy).

I told DH that I feel suffocated w/o going out window shopping after yesterday. hah...I know, even just one day I felt I am deserted from the fashion week in NY.

Today, DH said that he wants to eat at Left Bank at Santana Row. Well, why am I so surprised?? Because he said that just for me!!! He knows that I like going to fancy restaurants and feeling alive when just looking at the window display outside those shops. Oh, what a sweet guy for me!!! haha.....

Off we go Left Bank.

Today I call my outfit as style of Rock and Roll + Posh Eclectic! (The term is credited to the book "The Lucky Guide to Master Any Style" )

Here is my inspiration!! (pic. credited to ,chickdowntown.com)


1. TOP:

• Navy blue ruched turtle neck w/ mosaic decor. top
• No brand peasant dress/tonic top
• Mcginn cropped vest (come w/ a blazer)
• Vince leather jacket

2. Hosiery: Brown w/ tiny orange/white dots stockings
3. Rudy's black riding boots (bought in Paris)
4. Greenish/ taupe knitting scarf (bought in H&M)
5. Balenciaga Violet part-time w/ silver harware

Since I wore stockings instead of leggings, I think a pair of chic boots will compliment this edgier look better.

Poor my daughter...still feeling ill!


After brunch, we went to Border's bookstore and bought kids some books and art craft for fun!



I bought one passport cover for my son last year and found it is such a nice thing to distinguish his passport from rest of ours. Don't you just hate it when you have to sort through all the passports for the custom when traveling out of country. So I bought another two for my other kids and hopefully we will get through custom faster next time when traveling!!

Aren't those owl prints adorable!!
I even bought myself another key holder as I have one extra key w/o her clothes one. This owl key holder is more flexible than the monkey one I had!!



Kids are napping right now and I know tonight is another long night for me.

Shed off my Vince leather jacket as it is not that cold actually!

Day 2 after the spider vein surgery (Sclerotherapy).

Yesterday, we went to dim sum for brunch as every weekend. But since DH, my son and older daughter all caught the flu and have fever on and off, we went home rest.

There, I had simple black and white outfit again!!! Do I feel bored w/ this black n' white combination? NO, and never!!

When I had a mood to wear something, I might be consistent of wearing the ensemble until I am satisfied w/ the look. I was trying to wear that striped blazer as often as I can to have my money worth it too. Meanwhile, I want to see how does this white top look after I altered it myself. I bought it at size XL, and imagine I am normal size 0 to 4. That white shirt is way too big w/o any alternation.

This top has a pretty looping stitches.


I tore the treads around one shoulder and turned it into a one shouldered top.


Do I look like I am ready for the play of Kong Fu Panda II!!! haha......


1. TOP: Tsesay white shirt w/ loop stitches (altered to one shouldered top for a updated look)
2. Bottom: Joseph black wool pants w/ stitches around the waist
3. Shoes: Lanvin two toned flat
4. Belt: Max&Co. 3 roses decor. leather belt
5. Chanel distressed white reissue 227
6. Gray vintage designer Vera lady bugs scarf
7. Accessory:

• Chanel black bow w/ cc logo dangle earrings 09 cruise collection
• Movado loop necklace
• Tiffany heart necklace

I still have that super tight hosiery on left leg. I think that leg are getting even slimmer because of the constrained pressure!!



The platform heels will make this look more sophisticated instead of flat!!
