Here’s a styling of a black velvet suit from last winter. Every December there are a bunch of things I want to get done before we leave Hong Kong for our Christmas holiday. This year we will be heading to Bali on December 20th with Kevin’s folks will joining us December 26. I’m so lookingContinue reading December 2018 To-Do List
The Mini Red Plaid Skirt On Friday I asked all of you, my Dear Readers, if I should continue with my Wednesday Wearing series, and the answer was yes! Yahoo!! This makes me happy because I have really been enjoying styling a theme each month offering different variations on how to where something that’s trendingContinue reading Wearing Holiday Red Plaid with Sneakers
It’s a given that I’m usually sporting some type of sneaker. Yet, lately, I’ve been able to find a shoe–rather a boot, that is just as comfortable: cowboy boots. I adore my tobacco pair; I find I’ve been wearing them at least once a week. With the Western trend so hot this fall, I wantedContinue reading In December Try White Cowboy Boots
According to the above image from last November, it would appear I also was having a leopard moment exactly one year ago. Here I am wearing leopard boldly, casually with jeans, and cozily in my faux fur jacket. Indeed, all year long, for many many years now, I’ve been no stranger to leopard. Please doContinue reading What I’ve Been Up To This November
This is my last installment of wearing leopard. I started subtle (both here and here) and then moved on to color. But this week, I’m just going for it! Sometimes the only thing to do is completely embrace the trend, and when it comes to wearing leopard, here’s a way to style it all inContinue reading Wearing Leopard–Just Go For It!
I am a clothes horse; it’s true. I have way, way, WAY too many clothes. I try very hard to take out whenever I add. Sometimes special clothes (like these paisley items for example) remain in my possession despite not fitting. That’s ok. One day…. Most of my clothes are not expensive–I might spend $40Continue reading I Splurged!
Back in September, I wrote a post about a school uniformed. My plea was “Please don’t tell me what to wear!” My high school gave us these really ugly polos to wear on Fridays. Granted they’ve been repurposed from recycled fabric, so there’s a good purpose behind the actual shirt, but it’s Godawful ugly! I’veContinue reading Update from Don’t Tell Me What to Wear
So far the two ways I’ve worn leopard this month have been a bit understated–a black shift with leopard sneakers and a leopard fanny pack were minimal, and even more sparse was a simple, muted leopard tee. This week however I’m taking things in a more bold manner. Yet, I do think it’s a ratherContinue reading Wearing Leopard–In Color
This post is more for me, but I hope my Hong Kong readers also take advantage of this information. I’ve been having a hard time keeping track of all the Christmas bazaars and pop ups happening around the city, so I thought I’d make a cheat sheet to keep things straight. Granted this could haveContinue reading Hong Kong Christmas Bazaars Cheat Sheet
I’m usually very good about cleaning out my closet. If something is ever added, I try to immediately take something out. This is especially easy with staple items like white tees or black pants. It becomes a little more difficult with funky pieces like printed skirts or graphic tees, but I do try. Living inContinue reading Holding On To Clothes
It’s pretty obvious with one visit to any high street store that leopard (and snake for that matter) are having a serious moment. Yet, wearing leopard can be intimidating for those who do not consider this bold animal print to be a neutral. For me I own this print in abundance, yet I’m trying toContinue reading Wearing Leopard–With a Simple Tee
As predicted the weekend was phenomenal! And like I thought, I enjoyed the people watching just as much as the music. In fact, I took 459 pictures over the weekend. Don’t worry–I edited through all the shots, and I’ve only posted around 30 or so here. But, to make it easier to browse, I createdContinue reading Clockenflap 2018
