Fun trinkets!!

Today, I have a mission for myself.... shop for accessories. I am not talking about pricey or high brand stuff but trinkets. 

I am quite happy w/ what I had bought...couple things from Anthropologies, pieces from H&M (Ah, it has been a while ......). And I am going to wear them one by one starting next week!! ^^

DH like Ted Baker's man design.  We normally check it out together just to update his cannot-be-more-ugly wardrobe year by year! lol And I found their plastic shopping tote quite interesting. I love those color combination and thought about my ROSE Chanel flip flops that I haven't had a chance to wear them after I got back from Taiwan. 

The small beige/pearl is $40. 

Ah, lime green...my fav. color too!! 
Maybe Chanel should have this gray flip flop w/ Green camellia flip flop next year!! ^O^



This is Cynthia, a very pretty girl!!
I love that intricate earrings on her...she said it is only $7 bought at Target.


Ah, I'd say that's a super home run score!! ^^



I should stop by Target tomorrow to check out other colors. 



My $5 laser-cut earrings bought at Jakarta. ^^





My ODJ.

This is what I scored at Anthropologie today. 


A very intricate embellished bib necklace for $69. 
made in India. 



Do they look like clown-fish swim above coral reefs?

You know, I'd say this is behind the scene picture taken for my ODJ!!! lol

Niel is teething for his permanent teeth. Abby and Niel both are bored waiting for me finishing those ODJ photos before we head out. Next week, we probably will take them out for boating. (that's a floating device on top of Niel's head.) 

Hope you had a fun weekend.

Simplicity!!

I didn't know that one of my cousin was getting married yesterday and the only dress I brought is Hugo Boss!!


I am glad that the dress works great w/ CL heels. ^^

Little favor, Double Joy !

Chanel 226 matte black reissue w/ SHW
Hermes white CDC

The Jeans Shorts and the Blazer!!

I am always so meticulous about the details of packing every single outfits w/ its proper shoes. Couple of my friends are visiting Paris soon. They are so proud to tell me that they only need 1 or 2 or maybe 3 pairs of shoes taken along w/ them to Paris!! 

Oh, well, I said, there is not much event to attend nor friends to visit, shoes is not important! Money/Cards is the only thing needed to bring along to Paris!! ^O^

Then, I was debating myself: should I fly w/ Maxi dress w/ sandals or shorts w/ heels tonight? 

I believe I saw the trend of wearing "long blazer" is coming up this A/W.  Just like last year, I incidentally bought clog heels from Max Mara and it is a HIT all the way to this summer!!! ^^ Somehow I was bored wearing clog and didn't wear much in s/s.


Taipei is also a tropical country w/ its sultry weather, I expect to be sticky and sweat a lot first thing I get off the plane!!! :P 


OPTION 1 aka My ODJ.

I probably don't even need this long blazer....I am leaving her behind!!

 The Vince top is curved hem and somehow it gets pulled up when I stretch my arms...it is not a body-suit! ^^


1. Top: 

• Vince black box-cut bat-sleeves tee
• Kay Park Gray blazer w/ shoulder details 

2. Bottom: Genetic jeans distressed shorts
3. Shoes: Manolo Blahnik black embossed sandal
4. Bag: PS1 yellow clutch

No matter what, I think a pair of black heels/sandals or some sort is a MUST in my trip from now on!! 

OPTION 2

free people maxi dress

Lilith polka dot dress

J crew knitting long cardigan w/ satin pockets 

Chanel 2010 matte black reissue 226 w/ SHW 

Hermes white CDC 

Chanel s/s 2010 rose flip flop 

Which one would you vote for plane comfy outfit!!? :P 

Ah... you know what, gotta run!! Must finish my Power Yoga and TRX for tonight before I get on the plane!! ^^

Stay slim, girls!!

The Rave of Digital Print .... in High Fashion!!

I bought Digital printed modal short sleeve oversized T-Shirt dress from Michael Angel. All of his design is so wearable!! 

This is the T-shirt dress I bought. Emily print 18. 

MODTV Michael Angel Spring 2010

You know what Digital Print is?? 

Ans: Digital printing is very similar to the laser printer that we all use at home.  But it is faster n' cheaper than screen print which use patterns to do layer by layer printing. Digital printing also gives the designers more freedom.  They are able to come up with a lot more patterns and designs because it is so cheap and easy to do. 

Digital printing is one of Roberto Cavalli's new invention. There are a lot of designers who uses digital print technique the past couple years such as Stella McCartney, Basso and Brooke..just to name a few here.


The result look on clothes: The colors, even on a single dress, were so varied as to defy description. The more closely one looked, the more gradations one saw. The contrasting patterns and colors gave each piece a unique feel, and the patterns seemed to undulate as the models walked...(complete article: The Independent:Fashion)


Today, I wore that gifted tank from Michael Angel!!! ^O^
SIDE NOTE: I had a difficulty placing my order online couple weeks ago but their customer service did an awesome job.  They surprises me by sending me another digital print t-shirt as a gift along with my original order!!! Happy...happy... me... happy as a cow ~~  hee....
