We went to see Ready Player One this weekend. I’ve been anticipating this movie since I read the amazing book by Ernest Kline last summer. (Here’s my book with an outfit for Ready Player One–I need to start creating these posts again.) Vincent read the book in two days, handed it over to me, andContinue reading Ready Player One
Wearing yellow isn’t for everyone–even though I’m giving it a good attempt this spring with yellow trousers here and a sequins shift here. Since wearing yellow is one of the more difficult shades of color to wear, here I’m showing an easy way to incorporate this popular spring color: statement yellow earrings paired with aContinue reading Wearing Yellow–When It Doesn’t Look Good On You
It’s March, and everyone dealing with the end of this winterish month is eager for spring’s rainbow! For all of us in Hong Kong are winter chill is over but we still quite don’t know how many layers to wear. Suffice it to say that a jean jacket is always the perfect layer this timeContinue reading Rainbow Bright! A Fab 40s Post
I’m reading again! This is really important since my day job is as a high school librarian after all. So why would I all of a sudden start reading again? Well, I’ve eliminated a past time that was replacing my reading time: Instagram. For the last month I’ve given up on that social media. Well,Continue reading I’m Reading Again–Because I Quit Instagram
Wearing yellow for all of us is tricky–at least it is for me. It has to be the exact yellow for most people. My yellow has to have more white in it; I can’t wear mustard or an orangey yellow. It’s got to be clear and bright like canary yellow, and even then it mayContinue reading Wearing Yellow–It’s Tricky for Most of Us!
I bought this boho romper just for my travels to Luang Prabang. I’ll often do that: buy a special outfit that I think will suit the destination for where I’m traveling. It was by chance that we happened upon a bamboo bridge that matched my boho romper perfectly. This bamboo bridge is only up forContinue reading Boho Romper in Luang Prabang
Happy International Women’s Day to all the women I know out there. I just took a jaunt through my Facebook photos…. of course after living 20+ years overseas, I’ve made an amazing amount of international women friends. I can name many girlfriends from each of the countries we’ve lives so far, so for this postContinue reading Happy International Women’s Day!
I’m lucky, very lucky. I’m lucky in travel. When Kevin and I met, travel was definitely a common denominator for both of us. We met in Italy–I always add to this statement that even though we met in Italy, my husband is not Italian. When we fell in love, it happened fast. After just oneContinue reading I’m Lucky! A Reflection on Travel
This is an attention notice for all travelers: you must check the dress code of the destination for where you are traveling! I don’t often get opinionated on Kremb de la Kremb. It’s not my nature to stir up arguments, but from what I just witnessed on my recent travels, I can’t help but writeContinue reading Attention Travelers: Check the Dresscode!
Staying warm and stylish. I don’t know. I am finding it very hard to stay warm and remain stylish this winter. It’s like I’ve lost any style sense. I mean, when looking back on these pictures, the first thing that comes to my mind is bag lady. I mean what was I thinking?! Yet, asContinue reading Staying Warm AND Stylish–A Fab 40s Post
If you know me by now, it’s pretty obvious that I am a devoted Forever 21 shopper junkie. I may be twice as old as 21, but that sure the heck doesn’t stop me. Pretty much over 80% of my wardrobe very well may be from Forever 41–op 21! It used to be when IContinue reading I Love Hong Kong: Mong Kok
It’s the Year of the Dog! Happy Chinese New Year!! Remarkably, one of the best things from living overseas (for over 20 years!) has been experiencing all the wonderful festivals and holidays around the world. With three years in Beijing and our sixth year in Hong Kong, we’re on our 9th CNY! It’s such aContinue reading Happy Chinese New Year!
