It’s about this time a year when my husband says, “So it’s your birthday soon. What do you want this year? And it’s Valentine’s Day too…” I think I always say just about the same thing which makes me think I am actually probably the easiest person to shop for ever. I love just aboutContinue reading I’m Easy
At some point I’ll need to stop with the comfy sweatshirts, but while they’re around and a serious trend, I’m embracing them! Elle–along with all the trendsetters at my school, inspired me to get one more sweatshirt. It’s a pretty cute in black and white with the bold HKIS plus it’s so cozy and thick.Continue reading One More Sweatshirt
This is my new street address, Stanley Market Road, and I LOVE IT! I haven’t taken a moment to catch my breath since we’ve moved in and reflect on how much I love my new home. (My parents arrived moments after the move-in date, then Elle arrived, and now Kevin’s folks are here–yes, come visit!)Continue reading Stanley Market Road
We’ve got just one week left with Elle here with us in Hong Kong. Oh, it’s been such fun!! If you’ve been following her on Instagram, you will have noticed her very own hashtag: #elleinhk. With this, she’ll have a collection of everything she’s done here once she returns. One of her first weekends hereContinue reading Twinning
I have the best mommy ever! And she gave me the best boots! Here’s what happened when Joanie was here in Hong Kong: she arrived in these boots, and I immediately thought they were so cute. I knew I wanted to wear them at least once while she was here, but for some reason IContinue reading Best Boots
What a great year! Looking back on 2013 I definitely rekindled my passion for fashion and blogged much more than I have in the past. It’s been so fun. My mind is much more creative than it has been in years which feels very good. I have had some amazing experiences here in Hong KongContinue reading Looking Back on 2013
For the holiday season, I always have a couple of set outfits–outfits that will go easily from work to a party and make me feel festive for any occasion. The go-to outfit this season was an easy formula: black turtleneck + black booties and black tights + a festive skirt. These three skirts were inContinue reading Holiday Outfit Formula
Merry Christmas from Stanley! I am so excited to have moved to this charming, extra special, Southside neighborhood of Hong Kong. Granted we lived just a ten minute walk away before in Chung Hom Kok, but now, we live in it, on it, of it. Stanley is spectacular, so you can count on hearing andContinue reading Merry Christmas from Stanley
I’m all about the easy DIY. The one that is foolproof. The DIY that actually doesn’t take a lot of skill or patience. This Gold Bootie DIY was right up my alley! 1. Take an old pair of booties–I had replaced my black pair this season with the DV Juju ankle bootie, so I didn’tContinue reading Gold Bootie DIY
When I saw this post by Christine Cameron of My Style Pill, I knew I would need to have a pair of (faux) leather track pants this season. They’re just so rocker cool while also (probably) being super comfortable. I wanted the same exact ones seen here: the Piper Faux Leather Track Pant found atContinue reading Fashion Fixation: Leather Track Pants
Ok, ok, maybe this one is a little scary, but BOO! It’s Halloween!! And out of the three items I’m wearing (studded sweatshirt, leather skirt, and studded pumps), I scored two out of the three from the Swap and Shop I attended last weekend. Will I be going back? Heck ya! The pumps, which I’m linkingContinue reading BOO!
I can’t help it: I’m from the Pacific Northwest! Of course my Canadian Tuxedo version is going to incorporate Native American jewellery, cowboy boots, and a fringed bag! I had been thinking about this post for a while now. I just had to wait for the weather to cool. It’s amazing how brisk a changeContinue reading My Canadian Tuxedo
