Who am I?

It must be the weather that made me gone daft!! Suddenly I went for a BANG for my hair. It is not that I never get a bang but just I never had a bang w/ short hair. 

Hopefully it is not my another infatuation from runway look which I might regret tomorrow morning after I wake up!! 

Let's keep finger crossed~~ ^O^

I am still ME couple days ago~~

teal blue camisole, Marni coat 10A, Mphosis Bermuda shorts w/ asymmetrical fold in front, teal/red/beige stripes leggings w/ lace band, Proenza Shouler PS1 clutch, Elfi Altendorfer costume made vintage beads necklace, patent belt, Alexander Wang Abby sandal heels.

Today!!

 I wish I could say this is my another half....twin sister!!

:P

I have always wanted to pair a cardigan/cropped coat w/ this Michael Angel jersey dress the day I bought it. Just so I can wear them as a transitional outfit. 

Brocade cropped jacket from Magaschoni collection!!

Ashley Jones wore a brocade dress to Audi/Chopard Emmy Week Party.
(I believe it is the same pattern as my cropped jacket.)


Another look from magaschoni which is so inspiring to me.
Good news is that their collection made w/ intricate patterned fabric and notable cashmere is not so expensive at all.

The silk brocade jacket has sumptuous, luxury pattern/colors, which, luckily, perfectly update this now a past season Michael Angel dress (s/s 2010), 

w/ Karen Walker Milky pink sunglasses.... ^^
I am going to find more beaded embroidery for my half-done leggings.

Have fun w/ your DIY project.

Taut!

Michael Angel Designs is having a sale online. Check it out!!


When my brain is actually working, I pair colors coordinating w/ prints better. Friends ask me how to tone legs, I say: squads! ^O^ I am not skinny so my legs are not skinny but I exercise to tighten every muscle of my legs. 

This heels is not the best match, I first thought!

Then I thought Stella Luna gladiator heels is a great alternative.
Heels + Socks = A Must DO!

My friends flocked back to Taiwan one by one and sooner we will all be flying back as well. 


When they are around, we spent so much time together from Monday to Friday, that I don't have time to be on FB and do not even have time to do online shopping...... :P However, w/ their absent, I finally can chat more on FB and doing more online-shopping except I really miss the fun of trying things on first!!! lol.

I want my daughter (Abby) to quit doing finger-sucking so I encourage her to chew gum or sing songs instead.....then I start chewing the gum w/ her...haha....

No matter how tired I am, dishes and house-cleaning is an inevitable thing to do!! ......there, when we arrived home, it was already 9:30 PM, and I am doing the dishes while DH takes kids for bath!! 

We are trying this new Wi-Fi wireless memory disk and that's why Dh took a picture of me doing the dishes........ (funny) lol..

This is such a cool invention that the moment I got home w/ tons of picture I took a day, it already automatically uploads pictures to my computer.  It saves me the time of pulling out the card, and then looking for the memory disk which I forgot where did I put it (oh, I need gingo bioloba), and the time I wait for the uploading!!! 
So far, we love its performance.  



Great product,...not so cheap neither. $149.99 but I think it is worth the price. (I am not doing any advertisement here. ^O^)


Have a time-efficient day on Wednesday!!

The Real Look of Michael Angel Digital Print Shirt/Dress!!

So I have piled on a lot of clothes over this Michael Angel dress shirt. Now is the time to appreciate its whole look up closer.


You know what's the problem of wearing a runway or designer clothes when there is some model or celebrity wearing it. 


......... 
Afraid of being compared......
"WHO WEARS IT BETTER??????"
.........


That's right!! I hate that column in the magazine. But again, reading that provides a lot of entertainment to me, so never take it seriously. hah... 

Beauty comes differently in every eye, isn't it!!!!

Are You Dizzy?!!

Are you dizzy by looking at me?

Hope NOT!!

I am in a mood of being a busy owl these days... loving owl, thinking about owl and even stay up late like a nocturnal owl!!! ^O^

I went back to Castro st. in SF city to pick up Niel, Heidi and Ilona's pottery pieces. I also did a fun shopping in the neighborhood. I am surprised that there are a lot of cute stores hiding next block of homo-sexual district. (no offense here.)

I let Michael Angel shirt hanging longer than my skirt....

Then we went to Betsy Johnson in Fillmore st. w/ Cathy....she wants to try some leggings AGAIN.....

We found an interesting home decor. vintage store in Castro st. and I bought this cute owl sculpture by c. Jere (signed).

Too bad, the owl had one broken leg... but I still adore them!!!



Aren't they the cuties owls in the whole wide world!!


I found this vintage bird necklace ($125) which is a great alternative to Erickson Beamon's ($640). .... still debating....

I must admit...there is no comparison between them..... this one is too precious!!!


Owl clocks.


Those owl looks like they need the sleep.....^O^!!

Good nite..... or good morning......

See you tomorrow.
