Please don’t tell me what to wear. Please! I love getting dressed too much. In the mornings I enjoy preparing what I’ll wear for the day. From the outfits to the accessories, it’s all a joy for me. Sometimes my outfits work and are put together while other times they don’t, but I want toContinue reading Please Don’t Tell Me What to Wear
Oversize me! Sometimes I just want to wear oversize everything. It’s so comfy. It’s definitely on the sloppier side, but oh, it’s so cozy. Like this sweater for example, in a very soft chenile, is way too big–I almost got the medium but then was like no I want large! And these pants, very brandContinue reading Style Stories: Forever 21, Oversize Me!
I just checked the weather in the town where I grew up, and it’s 40° in Spokane, Washington. Hong Kong is currently 77°. I am not complaining about the weather in HK: I do love it here, and our weather is very eventful. Just Sunday we had yet another typhoon–why don’t they happen on schoolContinue reading Fall Dressing in Hong Kong
One day a couple of weeks ago, I was in the belly of Hong Kong riding the MTR (that’s the name of HK’s subway system). I can’t remember what stop I was at, but one of the advertisements really caught my eye: it was of a woman in a gorgeous white one shoulder sweater withContinue reading A One Shoulder Sweater
You’re going to see a lot of sequins during this round of The Fab 40s. We are all wearing formal during the day. This is something I’m quite used to. Since I’m on a total sneaker/casual shoe kick, I try to figure out ways to dress up this look. In fact you can see meContinue reading The Fab 40s in Formal During the Day
Just Monday I participated in a blogger collab with The Fab 40s. The theme was boho. Here I am again two days later with more boho, more paisley. It was around November when I posted about my Thanksgiving paisley pants. This pair, just about as old, maybe even older, are my Spring pair of paisley.Continue reading More Boho, More Paisley
I am making friends with the coolest women–around the world. No I haven’t met them in person yet, but I am getting to know them regardless of time and place. This week for my Style Story Link Up, I want to introduce you to @catoinamsterdam. For ease I’ll refer to @catoinamsterdam by her name, Carin.Continue reading Style Story Link Up No. 5 + @catoinamsterdam
Last week I mentioned how I’m almost finish with my London College of Style certificate. Part of the most recent assignment, aside from this personal collage, was styling a friend, and I chose my dear friend Amber. The gist of the assignment was to take something of the individual but that add a bit ofContinue reading Styling Amber
I’m almost done with two things that have been taking up a lot of my time and energy! First, I’ve been working toward a certificate in personal styling from The London College of Style for way too long now. They have been more than patient with my delinquency in turning in assignments. I have oneContinue reading Almost Done…
There are a couple of very supportive and influential ladies in the middle aged blogging community. I’ve mentioned Catherine from Not Dressed as Lamb. She holds a similar motto to me regarding confidence being the very best accessory. There’s another very supportive and collaborative individual based in Singapore: Sylvia from 40 Plus Style. Sylvia hasContinue reading My Style Interview with Sylvia from 40 Plus Style
So….there was an article written recently that has ruffled many (stylish) women’s feathers–including mine. Over on Rant Chic a post was written about the 24 Things Women Should Stop Wearing After Age 30. Say what!?! For me, this is just asinine. I’ve never done well with people regulating what I can and cannot wear. IContinue reading 24 Things I Shouldn’t Have Worn–Ooops! Basically, #IwillwearwhatIlike
A white sundress is a summer necessity. A white sundress paired with cowboy boots is a stylistic take on vacationing in Idaho. Actually one of the new stores that has cropped up in Spirit Lake is a vintage cowboy boot shop–I must go take a look. During the summer though, out at Spirit Lake, I’llContinue reading White Sundress with Cowboy Boots
