Odds n' Ends... Look of the Day!!

This post would dedicate to my friend, Yu, if she allowed me to show her full figure. ^O^ However, she didn't grand me so I simply share everything left in my photos along w/ her look of the day. :P

 

Ms. Yu-Chia in Target. 

London Fog taupe patent boots, Marc Jacob tote.

 
After I bought my first pair of London Fog patent/rain boots last year, most of my gal fashionista can't seem to get enough of them. 


I took off the bows from Juicy Contour's shopping bag n' glue them on my oxford brogues. That's an instant update w/o spending a dime!! I am excited as the brown bows matches so well w/ the shoes and I don't care about that outdated soles at all now!!  

 
As long as Juicy Contour keeps their shopping bag in stock, I can replace new bows anytime. lol

My friend, Cathy, is a puck n' boho style mixer!!

Her perfectly torn Frankie B. jeans!!!

Last thing to share w/ you!!
I can't seem to recall this cropped leather biker vest is Mike n' Chris or .... well, it is $495 in nordstrom!! 

Have a fab. weekend!! I will make sure I update my look from SR pour H&M on Sunday.... xoxo Rachel

Fresh of the heels of my Universal Sports Commentary of the Olympic Ice Dancing Costumes, I was back for more! This time we were discussing the amazing Ladies Free Skate Finals and in the Vancouver Studio, joining in on the discussion was none other than....JOHNNY WEIR!!!

We had a great time discussing all the top ladies costumes and Kristi Yamaguchi and Peter Carruthers even presented me with quite a surprise finish to the segment!!! A perfect Figure Skating Costumes ending to mirror a most fabulous 2010 Winter Olympics Ladies Figure Skating Final!

Random Diary (2)........ Christopher kane 2010 n' Heavy Machine shoes!!!!

Finally, Yu told me what's that $20 worth of a bag!! 


Then I was like ^%$#^&*^@#... Ok, I bought that one too and H&M has tons in SF city. The reason I bought it is for Heidi not even me!!!! I shouldn't keep my expectation up too high when it comes to a $20 worth of bag...... lol.


You certainly can use those cute pins for other clothes I assume!!

I never had a chance to show you the inside lining of my runway organic Linda Loudermilk blazer.... it is even cooler than outside!!
"Nature is the Original Punk!!!" Indeed!!!!


This is my vintage buy, in a brand new condition for $20!! 
A pretty woven leather oxford Kumfs made in New Zealand!! 

So the fashion week in New York escalates our fashion appetite to this fall already!! I was browsing through Christopher kane's 2010 collection n' am happy about those pretty embroidered embellishment on the dresses. I don't know how far we could date those embellishment to, but certainly we see more and more Asia influences in fashion design, and even on runway models.

Can' stop exclaiming about the superb embellishment done on the leather!!!


So it is the first pic. of collared fur reminds me of MYSELF!! hee....


Heavy Machine Shoes: Taiwanese designer: Yoyo

Random Diary (1) ......The Pattern:both the behavior n' my clothes' stripes!!

I was talking to my friend, Isabel, on the phone yesterday. We were talking about how are they going to celebrate their 10 years wedding anniversary this year.  

....... I am envious, not only their marriage is 3 years longer than mine but also she is getting a HUGE diamond ring for it. haha....! 

Vain?!! Of course, otherwise this world would be so darn boring , right?!!! Lol.

We also talked about people's success is not a random cause.  It is luck + certain pattern!! She recommends me to read about a book called "Outlier" which has more detailed analysis about how different people comes from different backgrounds become so dominant successful in certain works of life!!!

Ok....so how does it relates to my behavior pattern

Well, Isabel said that it seems I would shop for vintage stuff quite intensively during the end of a year n' early of the year!! ^O^


Ha~~ right!!!! I thought about my spending behavior... it is because everything on sale is past season n' current season stuff is still priced insanely high. Plus, I have not made my mind what's worth to spend in a full price!!!  ^O^ That's my spending behavior......... alright, nothing to do w/ the book neither!!

*sigh* Recession makes inflation rise exponentially!!!!  

My ODJ!!

1. Top:
Splendid stripes tee
Kate Spade no-collar coat
2. Bottom:
Y-3 big pocket cropped pants
3. Accessory:
cashmere blend knitting scarf
Diesel white mesh suspender 
Louis Vuitton silver hoop earrings w/ 3 charms
Chanel 08' multiple pearl necklace w/ rhinestones
4. Shoes: Vintage Kumfs brown woven oxford

It is better/structured to add a scarf around the neck for no-collared coat. 
I think that makes your ensemble look more intact from head to toe!!

You know, I think those two pockets fit in couple bottles n' diapers...haha..


My recent furniture purchase is less than $300 just for the look!!!

Don't forget the random diary part 2.

I posted Khloes' Wedding makeup look months ago. I love the look because it can work on so many skin tones! Yet it is subtle enough to look too overdone.
