Awww, Bali. It’s pure bliss. Especially the Amertha Bali Villas up in the north west of the island in an area called Pemuteran. It’s secluded and rather isolated with nothing up there but the beach, a lovely villa, and sea life. Now that we have become divers, we returned to this destination to expand theContinue reading Balinese Snake Revisited
Wearing Western on Wednesdays this October is going to be easy. In fact, today happened to be a slow day at work–meaning I would not need to walk the library floor as much as usual. I swapped my usual sneakers for my cowboy boots, and granted I haven’t walked as much as I usually doContinue reading Wearing Western–Simple, Add Cowboy Boots
Ok. Here I am in October trying something out again. Last month I tried the wrap and tuck of my oversized dress shirt. I liked it. It was easy, comfortable, and chic. This month, I’m trying something else: bicycle shorts. (Insert wide eyed emoji face!) Now, this is what I’ll say about bicycle shorts: IContinue reading In October Try Bicycle Shorts
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
