What a wonderful week! There are two great perks of being an international educator: one, vacation time! Because we’re on a school year calendar, we are always welcomed by holiday time. It is a definite perk! The other benefit is living overseas in places like Asia where the travel opportunities are plenty. This is ourContinue reading Style Story: A Week’s Worth of Cover-ups
Beach Reads for Boracay
The beach reads I choose for vacation are very important to me. I go through a very thorough book evaluation in order to choose just the right books for reading. Being a librarian I actually take great fun in this ritual. I search my favorite book blogs like Reading Rants, I seek out recommendations fromContinue reading Beach Reads for Boracay
Poncho Tuesday and Sequins After the Holidays
When I saw this grey cashmere poncho on a good friend of mine (yes Jane, it was you!), I had to have it. She wore it simply over a crisp white shirt and a pair of jeans. She had stunning boots on as well with the jean leg simply tucked in. Jane is chic: she’sContinue reading Poncho Tuesday and Sequins After the Holidays
Lace Cover-Ups
Lace cover-ups, sandy beaches, palm trees, ocean breezes, refreshing waters, and gorgeous sunsets. Yes! I’m back at the beach this week for our Chinese New Year vacation! So, by the end of the week, there will be a Style Story of a different nature: cover-ups instead of work outfits! This lace top was purchased thisContinue reading Lace Cover-Ups
Style Story: Work Outfits Monday Through Friday
Let’s see…this has been the sixth week of keeping track of my work outfits. So far, I’ve gotten rid of plenty of items, I keep learning what looks best on me (most of the time), and I find myself still experimenting with different types of looks.

Poncho Tuesday in Winter Whites
Yep, it’s Poncho Tuesday again on Kremb de la Kremb but this time in winter whites. I love throwing a monochromatic look together especially in all creamy white.

Sequin Skirts After the Holidays
Sequin skirts. Yes, I do love them. And it so happened that I scored a few great gold sequin skirts after the holidays. I know! Bad timing. So, I have been on a mission to figure out how to wear my gold sequin skirts after the festivities of Christmas and New Years. I took noteContinue reading Sequin Skirts After the Holidays

This week was a four work outfit work week, and it went fairly well. This is a no brainer, but if I plan out the outfit the day before, I am usually so much better dressed!

Rash Guard Ready for Boracay
I need to get rash guard ready because in a little over a week, I’ll be heading to the beach of Boracay! I still love a tan–don’t get me wrong, but I don’t need the dark deep one that’s starting to make my skin look so dry and lizardy. In fact, these days, I preferContinue reading Rash Guard Ready for Boracay
Let’s Read How to be More French Books
Lately French books, in particular books about French women and they’re covetable style, are really hitting the books-to-read lists. Women want to know how to be more French. The French woman is utterly chic: she’s slouchy yet put together, she’s coy yet totally assertive, she’s flirtatious but temperamental, she’s timid but all together confident, she’sContinue reading Let’s Read How to be More French Books
Poncho Tuesday {Like Taco Tuesday but with Ponchos!}
For the Tuesdays in February I’ll be dedicated to styling my ponchos. I have a couple of ponchos, and it’s time for them to get some use. Ponchos are the perfect layering piece; wearing one is basically like wearing a blanket, and it they’re cashmere, it’s bound to be a very soft blankie. All theContinue reading Poncho Tuesday {Like Taco Tuesday but with Ponchos!}
