There’s really nothing spectacular about this outfit–other than it’s a take on the Canadian tuxedo but in all off-white denim version. What is special about these pictures however is that I just received my permanent HK resident card! Yes, after living here for over 7 years, one is able to apply for residency. As we’reContinue reading I’m an HK Resident!
There’s been a main attraction this February: Maeve has been in town! It’s always fun when someone comes to visit because we end up taking on the role of tourist with our guest, and that’s what exactly what we’ve been doing with Maeve, my niece and the kids’ cousin. This means there’s been less NetflixContinue reading What I’ve Been Up To This February
Mindset truly is everything. For some reason I was truly dreading this year’s birthday celebration. But then, on Thursday, February 21st, I had a change of thought. Rather than focusing on being one year older (read dread), I decided to celebrate my life. I mean that’s what a BIRTHday is right–the day one was bornContinue reading Birthday Celebration–Not Dread
I couldn’t decide which series to categorize this post. On the one hand lately for Wednesdays, I’ve been taking an item from the previous Wednesday post and restyling it. Two weeks ago on Wednesday I had restyled the plaid pants from three weeks ago which was a restyle of this Jaws sweatshirt. Now this postContinue reading Restyled White Shirt, A Book and an Outfit, and I Love Hong Kong: Big Wave Bay
Selfie with my niecie Maeve! *Oops! I thought this was published last Monday, February 4th, and now I am finding out it’s still a draft! Whoopsie!! My sister’s daughter Maeve is here–for the entire month of February! We are so excited to have her here and show her a bit of our life in HongContinue reading CNY with Maeve
Ahh, it’s Friday and the weekend is upon us. Last weekend our kids were actually both out of town. It was very odd to have them both away–there was a mixture of youthfulness and aging amongst Kevin and me. On the one hand, we were like, “Wohoo! Kids are gone.” But then again we doContinue reading I Love Hong Kong: King’s Dim Sum
There’s a spot in Hong Kong we go to about twice a year: The Peak. The reason we go up to the top of The Peak is to take a walk around the top of the highest mountain hill in Hong Kong–actually called Victorian Peak. The Peak Circle walk is only 3.5 kilometers long withContinue reading I Love Hong Kong: The Peak
Last Monday, I shared the launch of Eivor—a collaboration between Anaita of Shop Lustre and Sabrina. I’d had my eye on the crystal bar for quite some time: that was definitely the piece I was going to get. Then, because it was just so cool, I got the five piece ear set as well. EachContinue reading In My Eivor
It’s been a bit since I added to my I love Hong Kong series. There is one place in Hong Kong that I love above and beyond all the other neighborhoods, and that is my own: Stanley Market. There is so much to Stanley, Hong Kong. Stanley is an old fishing village, and out myContinue reading I Love Hong Kong: Stanley Market
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
The signs on this red wall say, “No posting on this wall.” For this round’s neighborhood of the I love Hong Kong series, I went with Lan Kwai Fong–also known to locals as LKF. This neighborhood has a split personality: by day it has shops like Cotton On and Sasa, there’s a Starbucks across theContinue reading I Love Hong Kong: LKF
I’ve been missing out on something, something with a whole lot of potential: Hong Kong! So many times I find an interesting wall and then use that as my backdrop. Well, there’s so much more to this city than it’s cool, grungy walls. For this reason, I’m starting a new series today called “I loveContinue reading I Love Hong Kong: Wan Chai
