Whenever I travel the only toiletries bring are my deodorant and wipees for the plane. Other than that come empty handed in the beauty products department; I do this because I have so much fun going to international drugstores. I find it so fascinating to see what makes the locals feel and look beautiful. InContinue reading International Drugstores
After all the fashion weeks around the world, it’s very exciting to see what’s hot on the street right now. Among many trends, like leopard and plaid, there was one trend that has caught me by surprise: Western! Since I am unable to upload any photos at this time, due to the poor WiFi atContinue reading Wearing Western
I should have known…. we’ve been to this very spot before and like the last time we were here, my pictures are not uploading. Since I can really sense I have a bunch of you tuning in for new posts on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, I do not want to leave you hanging. Here’s theContinue reading October Break at Amertha Villas in Bali
For every Wednesday of September I’ve featured outfits wearing shorts: 1st look, 2nd look, and 3rd look, and now the 4th look. For some, wearing shorts in Hong Kong happens year round, but for me it’s just during these fall months. It’s still hot and humid here and the temps won’t drop until January orContinue reading Wearing Shorts this September
It’s funny but sometimes I really do feel like I have nothing to wear. This I absolutely ridiculous; I realize my wardrobe is overfloweth. Perhaps that is the problem….maybe it’s time to embrace less is more… Yet I grow so attached to my clothing. I have a gazillion graphic tees and a gazillion more sneakers.Continue reading Nothing to Wear
For the past two Wednesdays in September, I’ve highlighted wearing shorts: here a black pleather, waist tied short paired with a blouse and here an ultra suede khaki short paired with a leopard blouse sweater. This Wednesday, I’m wearing all black and white from tweed shorts to a star printed tunic blouse. Wearing shorts outContinue reading Wearing Shorts Out
There’s nothing better than reading a really, really good book; that’s why I highly recommend reading A Gentleman in Moscow, by Amor Towles. What was interesting about reading this beautiful novel was by page 100, I still wasn’t quite sure of the plot line, yet it didn’t matter–the prose were just that good! The narratorContinue reading A Gentleman in Moscow: A Book with an Outfit
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
I’m pretty sure we all each have our own Wonder Woman story. I know I have many, but today I am going to tell you about my very first Wonder Woman story. This story is from when I was around ten years old. I am guessing ten because I had already started babysitting, and thisContinue reading Wonder Woman
Please don’t tell me what to wear. Please! I love getting dressed too much. In the mornings I enjoy preparing what I’ll wear for the day. From the outfits to the accessories, it’s all a joy for me. Sometimes my outfits work and are put together while other times they don’t, but I want toContinue reading Please Don’t Tell Me What to Wear
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
At the beginning of each month, I’d like to post a trend or style that I see occurring around the Internet, on Instagram, or in HK. Lately I’ve been seeing a new take on the basic oversized button down shirt: the wrap and tuck. Tucks these days have gone in all sorts of directions: theContinue reading In September Try the Wrap and Tuck
