Hearting Vintage Style

Today while getting ready with mama for brunch, I actually took a tour to her closet, and I found lots of lots of unworn outfits in wraps. Mama said they were what she wore when I was a baby, too embarrassing to wear them now.

But I think most of them are amazing! So I asked her to let me wear one of them today. With a few modern accessories, it turns out to be like this!

Belt: H&M
Necklace: Tiffany and Agatha
Blazer: G2 Black Label
Purse: Chanel
Vintage floral-print blouse: from the 80s, MADE IN HONG KONG
How often can you find a hong kong made blouse these days? 

Mama was happy. What you guys think?

Indecisive moment

Looking back at looks with and without bangs over years. Bangs are lovely but they are hard to manage. What you guys think?

Winter Body Lust

This entry is again dedicated to my girl friends. <3

You know holiday season is around the corner when you find yourself randomly humming Christmas carols at work - yes, that's me! :)

Thanksgiving + Christmas + New Year
= Lots of lots of food and wine + Crazy Shopping + Even more friends and family gatherings
= Double/ triple calories and no exercise + Seasonal financial crisis + more social (i.e. more food and alcohol) + Stress

The same equation repeats every year.

Peppermint Mocha and Hazelnut Chocolate Chip Muffin - Who can resist these holiday babies??

But this winter, I found a series of nice indigenous solutions to make my Holiday sweet treats a little less sinful:)


It all started on Thanksgiving day. I've been struggling to find a zen, relaxing but not pushing body treatment place in Hong Kong; on this very special day, thanks to Winda's recommendation, I started a  treatment course at INGRID MILLET Paris, spent my Thanksgiving afternoon here with a 3 hr body treatment + deep cleansing and collagen facial.... It was simply refreshing and heavenly!


Black Friday. I was back for a firming treatment. This is absolutely addicting. And I must say, out of all facial places I have tried, Ingrid Millet so far gives me the one of fastest and most satisfying results. 
Staffs are nice too. Would highly recommend to friends.

This is me right after facial. No makeup.

Saturday. While waiting for parents, I went into mom's spa place for another detoxifying massage and eye treatment. That one hurt a little... plus, there was some awkward moment too. Anyhow, I felt light and healthy again.

Got another Spa date this weekend. This one is in Repulse Bay. Will recommend if I like it.

Now Beauty sleep time. Night night, world.

Guys and their tight pants

Asia must be the new fashion playground.

If you take the MTR in any given weekdays, you’ll see lots of eyecatching people here in Hong Kong.

First of all, I must say Hong Kong is a rather fashionable city. You see working girls wearing the most fashion-forward dresses and walking towards the terminal like they are rocking the runway.

What really catch my eyes were the gentlemen...and their tightest pants!! Whether they’re dress pants or jeans, guys here like to wear it tight. Keyword: tight, not fit. They are tight to the point that you can see the shape of the whole lower body. Okay, I do appreciate Johnny Deep’s and David Beckham’s fit dress pants (I mean they are hot!) but not legs-hugging jeans!! That just makes me wonder “does it hurt to walk?” 

Besides tight pants, you’ll also see guys wearing highlighter pink shoes, carrying whiteboard-sized designers’ bags, and wearing the darkest eyeglasses indoor. Very fashion-forward, isn’t it?

Must give props to gentlemen here, for how daring and creative they are. Now I am very curious what’s the next trend gonna be.  

My Autumn Affairs

Summer is slowing leaving me. When I started to put my beloved shades and swim wears away, I found myself fall in love with accessories.

Heading to the shops now. Ciao~

Swollen Eyes

Life at the moment is perfect. I'm handling work great, awesome group of friends, lm on crazy vibes in Hong Kong... but God has to take something away from you when your life seems to be so complete.

That's LIFE.

Action at the moment: laying on bed, putting two cans of cold beer over my eyes.
