Chanel Over Hot Trend 2011 , Stripes!!

High fashion apparel meets consumer-friendly pieces which always result a great impact on any look!!! You know, diversify your wardrobe to make it easier for you to do mix-n'-match!!


Chanel's collection is covetable while you can always find Zara's piece has fabulous design and affordable price. You can't go wrong with either one let alone mix-n'-match both together~~ Ah, no, I am not affiliate with any of those brands. ^O^


Inspired by runway look, I always came up with my own interpretation!! You can, too.

The hi-lighted brand names are the looks I love the most in each category. Whether it be  sporty stripes, skinny stripes or wide innovative stripes from Marant's collection, sure they all become an inevitable fun and classic new looks for the beginning of each season. ^O^

Tweed and lady-like Jackets!!

Everyday I have to filter a lot of "junk emails". I think part of the reasons is because I signed up too many newsletters and I hardly have time to read them! But I still keep subscribing. :P 


Today, WHOWHATWEAR had a talk about lady-like jackets and just to show you how much I love those posh and elegant looking jackets, I decided to gather some photos of me wearing this same look over the past year. 

These two tweed jackets are Chanel. I love them to pieces.


Do you know, Chanel Shanghai collection 10' jacket (the white w/ red trim) was bought "ON-SALE" so it doesn't even have the "privilege" to be hung on its decent "CC" felt hanger when I brought it home!!? My, .... oh, well,.....poor second-born child. lol. 
(According to Chanel boutique, they need those hangers for NEW collection. or for FULL-price collection-to be exact) :P.

Spring/Summer is around the corner... is it? ^O^ 
Give this lady-like a try, would you?

Here are my two out of ten of my new year's resolutions:

1. I signed up "tennis" classes w/ my son and it starts next Mon. Obviously, Niel even knows more skills than I do. I, on the opposite, play tennis as it is badminton.....hahaha.... now it is time to learn it correctly. 

2. I also signed up "Film on-set" classes at Expression College which will start this Feb. I am not expecting to be an actress but acting is fun so I think I'd love to keep the habit. 

So what's your scariest new year resolution that you made for 2011!!?
