Yesterday after work I really did get all gussied up, set out with my camera and tripod, and framed the shot for today’s post, only to realize my camera battery was dead! So today’s post basically piggy backs on Monday’s feature: the switching of my wardrobe from winter/fall to spring/summer. Basically, it’s like getting aContinue reading Last Year’s Spring Looks
Last week during my respite at home, with the help of Lucile, our housekeeper, I made the spring wardrobe switch. Two to four times a year I swap out clothes, and it’s really quite fun: basically it’s like getting a whole new wardrobe. Like this dress for example–I got it at the end of theContinue reading The Spring Wardrobe Switch
It’s May Day! These pictures were taken a week or two ago–before I went in for surgery last Friday. I can remember the sun was out–which has been quite rare these days in Hong Kong. I have special coupons from my daughter: on my birthday she gave me these wonderful coupons for photoshoots (four ofContinue reading May Day
I couldn’t decide between Monday and Wednesday’s librarian looks this week, so I’ve included two for this Friday’s post. I actually really liked the librarian looks I wore on Thursday and Friday as well, so maybe those will become repeats in the remaining days of school–although probably not. Now that I’ve pulled out my springContinue reading Two Librarian Looks–Couldn’t Choose
Spring is here! And for once in Hong Kong, spring is lasting longer than a week! Usually, we’ll have one amazing spring day, and it will feel like the next day the weather skipped all the way to hot summer. But touch wood–spring is here in Hong Kong, and it has been lovely! During ourContinue reading Spring is Here!
Right about this time of year, I switch out my wardrobe. The fall and winter items get stored away, and out come the spring and summer clothes. When I saw this dress, I realized I hadn’t worn it in a while. The last time was during spring of 2015. These bright stripes needed some loveContinue reading Bright Stripes
Do you have an emoji? That emoji that you always use, that one that perfectly depicts how you feel? That emoji that you use in the text to your sister or the one included in your Instagram comments. That emoji that you connect with because it feels like yours. Well, I do! I have anContinue reading What’s Your Emoji?
I love the end of season sales. I always seem to get the best items at such affordable prices. For example, take these fun, rather wacky, wide legged culottes. After the new year, I picked them up at Zara for barely nothing. I knew they could be worn then in the winter and now inContinue reading Then and Now
I had to have this birdie sweater for spring. It’s so cute and dainty. There is this bird that migrates through Hong Kong about this time of year. Oh, I love this bird. It has a call that increases with intensity in both noise and volume. He (or maybe she–I do not know) starts hisContinue reading The Bird is Back!
Festival season is about to start. I always notice it on my Instagram feed when the top fashion bloggers all flock to the fields for the music festivals. As I daydream amidst the images, I thought it’d be fun to pretend a bit. What if I were to go to Coachella, what would I wear?Continue reading Coachella Wannabe
Oh goodness, I really try hard not to complain, but this winter is really, really getting old. And I really, really don’t want to wear this heat inducing black turtleneck any longer. But, it’s still chilly, and I always get cold, so I’m still wearing it (even with the matching heat inducing leggings half theContinue reading But I Don’t Wanna Wear my Black Turtleneck Anymore!
