We have a bit of a temperature drop–not a lot but just a little bit. So here I am continuing to show you some fall dressing with shorts this time around. Yes, it’s October 25, and we’re still able to comfortably wear shorts. Yet, again, I embrace different colors and textures to adjust to fallContinue reading Fall Dressing In Shorts X 2
I just checked the weather in the town where I grew up, and it’s 40° in Spokane, Washington. Hong Kong is currently 77°. I am not complaining about the weather in HK: I do love it here, and our weather is very eventful. Just Sunday we had yet another typhoon–why don’t they happen on schoolContinue reading Fall Dressing in Hong Kong
We just had the most fabulous trip to El Nido, Palawan in the Philippines. Our time was spent island hopping or scuba diving. Again, the beauty of this region is breathtaking. Up above water is a delight, and then down below amongst the coral and sea life there is an amazing other world. It’s soContinue reading Fall Dressing: In El Nido, Palawan
The weather in Hong Kong is now at it’s most beautiful. It’s still quite warm, but the humidity seems to have disappeared. We used to be at 80% or above; now we’re down to %40 humidity. It makes such a difference. The winds truly keep shifting: there’s always such a pleasant breeze in the airContinue reading Fall Dressing
Ok, ok. I returned to blogging with some overzealous vigor. There is no way I can commit to posting each week day as proven by this past week. I made it Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, but Friday’s post is being written and published on Saturday! I definitely need to lower my personal blogging expectations.Continue reading Shopping My Closet for Fall Trends 2019
It would appear that every fall in Hong Kong I can be found wearing shorts. (Here’s how I styled these shorts last fall, 2017.) As I wrote last Wednesday, sometimes I wear shorts to work–like this outfit for example. I wore this exact ensemble to work yesterday. Wearing shorts in the fall helps me feelContinue reading Wearing Shorts in Fall
Fall Heat Jewellery: Coral earrings (similar) // Turquoise Necklace (similar) // Coral Necklace (similar) // Ganesha pendant (many options here) // Layered crosses Fall in Hong Kong won’t arrive until it’s actually winter everywhere else in the Northern Hemisphere.

Wearing shorts to work isn’t very common attire; however, this fall season I’ve been giving it a go to see if it works for me. It does–especially since there’s a lot of moving around for me in my day as a high school librarian. The reason wearing shorts to work also is beneficial in HongContinue reading Wearing Shorts to Work
I’m back in my Urban Jungle, Hong Kong. I love Hong Kong dearly, and I really feel for its people right now. Many of you wonder if we are ok in Hong Kong. Are we safe? The answer, for now, is a wholehearted YES! We are very safe in our Southside neighborhood of Stanley. WhereContinue reading Urban Jungle
This is the third and final item I recently revitalized from my closet. During some spring cleaning and wardrobe gutting, I came upon three pieces that with a little fixing could be upcycled. I’ve always loved this black floral tunic, but I always hated the length. The length made it so frumpy on me, andContinue reading Revitalized Floral Tunic
It’s rather early this month, but here we are on the last Friday of October. I have to be honest with you my readers: I’ve been looking forward to sharing what I’ve been up to all month long. There has been so much good stuff. I don’t even know when and where or what toContinue reading What I’ve Been Up To This October
Do you remember our trip to the Philippines in October? Remember how I was gushing about the Forever 21 in Clark, Philippines? Well. It was during that trip that I basically purchased all the holiday outfits I’d wear during this winter break holiday to Thailand. When I saw this bright off-the-shoulder red lacy dress, IContinue reading Merry Thai Christmas
