My Fall Shopping just Started...

Autumn is my favorite season among all 4. My friend, Isabel, told me that's because I was born during this season.  Hum.... It makes perfect sense to me as I am so fond of Autumn and Winter.  Besides, I love keeping my body temperature very low as it will tighten my pores and skin which might help to delay the aging process. {Ah, I know, this is just my non-sense theory.}
Anyhow, which season were you born, were you born in fall and do you like autumn as I do?!

Both left and right are YSL A/W 11' 


I like both Moss Green and Gray colors and especially the sling-back platform heels with "fringe looks alike mustache" oh, no, "Mustache looks alike fringe" !!! But neither of them really won my heart.  
The center picture is STRATEGIA boots.

 This has separated toe and lace up details as well as combined look of both leather and suede in one. 

This is a classic pair of boots with a little bit of fun.{What? On sale?.... SOLD!} 




RLX Marino Wool + Cashmere pants in sand/beige and light sage. 
{Sand/beige one, $395, SOLD!}



YSL tribute nude suede pump
{Now should I hunt for this color which would perfectly dress up that almost same color wool pants for a matchy-matchy look? ....Pondering.....depending...}



H & M Wool beige/sand/nude shorts with scallop hem 
H & M brown platform pump 
{$49.95 each, both SOLD!}






Prada Limited Edition s/s 2011 tortoise sunglasses
{$290, SOLD!"}


My Outfit Du Jour 

Anthropologie t-back lace camisole, Suzuki Takayuki organic harem pants, Limedrop cloud cardigan, Prada gold sandals, Alaia laser-cut tote 11', Elisabeth Cole necklace, J Crew earrings, BCBG Max Azura necklace (improvised as bracelet!) 

It was original a necklace but now it is a paved crystal fringe bracelet with ring wrap. 



I love the silkiness and soft clingy touch of both silk and satin, and wearing them makes me feel like I am still lying on my bed. 


Did you start your fall shopping list yet?
Make a wish-list then.

In Two Days....

We will be in Taipei in two days... my home town!! How exciting!!

Why?

The food, the street vendors, the people, the friends, and most important of all, my whole family!!!

We are crunching time to do house remodeling before and while we are gone. By end of tomorrow, I should have our Chandelier up on the ceiling. While we are gone, we decided to let our contractor keep working on replacing the whole house hardwood flooring. Some renovation needs my supervision but the replacement of hardwood flooring should be easy enough comparing to replace the stairs.

I heard that Taiwan is HOT, HOT, HOT these days. Lots of my friends here in USA are flying back at the same time and we know we are going to pack light, light, light!! And we are going to continue the fun we had over here and maybe even more while we meet in Taipei!!
