How many times does it take you to see something special in the stores before you’ll break down and finally consider it? For me I think the magic number is somewhere around four to five. I kept eyeing this wonderful winter white Christmas plaid skirt at H&M–and then finally just went ahead and purchased it.Continue reading Wearing a Holiday Circle Skirt with Sneakers
Merry Thai Christmas
Do you remember our trip to the Philippines in October? Remember how I was gushing about the Forever 21 in Clark, Philippines? Well. It was during that trip that I basically purchased all the holiday outfits I’d wear during this winter break holiday to Thailand. When I saw this bright off-the-shoulder red lacy dress, IContinue reading Merry Thai Christmas
What to Wear to the Christmas Party?
What should I wear to my Christmas party tonight? Last year I hated what I wore, so this year I want to love what I wear to my school’s Christmas party!Continue reading What to Wear to the Christmas Party?
#BOPO in a Bodycon
This post today might get a little rambly, but I’m ok with that. I hope you will be too…. Today I’m talking about #bopo in a bodycon. #BOPO? What’s that? I wondered the same thing until I figured it out and now I love the hashtag: #bopo stands for body positive. Now this is definitelyContinue reading #BOPO in a Bodycon
Blush Velvet Dress with Booties for the Holiday
I’m usually the one in vibrant Christmas plaid or blingy sequins and embroidery for the holidays, so this blush velvet dress is a little bit more subtle for me. Yet, the texture is glamorous as is the low cut neck and high slit skirt. I am still not able to really wear a high heel–muchContinue reading Blush Velvet Dress with Booties for the Holiday
Black Velvet Suit with Plaid
I got this black velvet suit last year–after the holidays! Basically, that means I have been anticipating wearing it all year long. I also bought the Christmas plaid shirt after the holidays to wear with this black velvet suit. Who knows why then for the recent office Christmas party I didn’t wear this ensemble. IContinue reading Black Velvet Suit with Plaid
LRVD (The Little Red Velvet Dress)
Last week I insisted on updating the LBD (little black dress) to an LBVD (little black velvet dress). This week I am going to say something even more bold: it’s time to update the LBD to an LRVD (little red velvet dress)! Shall we all become the dancing red lady emoji this holiday season andContinue reading LRVD (The Little Red Velvet Dress)
The LBVD (The Little Black Velvet Dress)
An LBD isn’t something I often need to add to my dress collection. But, if the LBD has a special attraction–say like velvet AND fringe bell sleeves, then I’ll make an exception. This is my LBVD–little black velvet dress. With the holiday approaching us all very quickly–I believe Thanksgiving is actually in ten days (TenContinue reading The LBVD (The Little Black Velvet Dress)
The Holiday LRD, Round 4
Here’s one last holiday lrd! I know I have way too many red dresses: there’s my boho version, my wrap dress, and my retro vintage. Now with this post, I’ve styled my cocktail version of the little red dress. Usually I spend my winter holidays vacationing in warmer climates. With a three week holiday thisContinue reading The Holiday LRD, Round 4
The Holiday LRD, Round 3
Oh! I do love the holiday lrd–as shown with this vintage one here, this boho one here, and this exact one also here! With Christmas just this week, I’ve got one more interpretation of the holiday lrd for Wednesday. The last time I styled this dress, I put a plaid shirt underneath so as toContinue reading The Holiday LRD, Round 3
The Holiday LRD, Round 2
It was just last week that I was showcasing a holiday LRD (little red dress). It turns out that I have another holiday LRD (and maybe even a couple more–we’ll see!). This little red dress now appears to be more of tunic since I might have (again!) hemmed it too short. Both the snowflake tunicContinue reading The Holiday LRD, Round 2
Holiday Style: Sequin Pants Dressed Down
A while back I declared a fashion fixation for sequin track pants. Well, I never did find a pair–yet! But recently I did find some sequin legging pants. I gasped and then jumped when I saw this silver pair in the window of an HM in Shanghai. I went skipping in and nabbed a pairContinue reading Holiday Style: Sequin Pants Dressed Down
