b+ab black shorts, school uniform shirt, Prada flats (mom’s handmedown), Rabeanco bag and Rayban Wayfarers.


Yay big head!

Does this shirt look familiar? Especially to anyone who went to primary and/or secondary school in Hong Kong? Why yes! Yes it IS the school uniform shirt from my Halloween costume! I tooooooooold you guys that I’d wear my uniform again! I paired them with these new shorts that are exact copies of the A.Wang boxer/brief shorts that Nanz got, except the waistband is a regular elastic waistband. Anyway, I thought I’d fashin-up my uniform shirt with tons of jewellery (as usual) and my Wayfies to look coooool (H).

That night, me and PB went for some FRESH seafood near his place. Between the two of us, we ordered 4 dishes! Too much..as usual..we always over do it!! I honestly love love love these meals with PB cos it’s always fun, stuffing and we always have a good time :)


My favouriteeeeeee: clams in black bean sauce. SOOO GOOOD!!!


Battered fresh squid with garlic and chilis


Sweet and sour garoupa. As you can see, PB couldn’t even wait till I took my photo before grabbing some.


Cubed angus beef with champagne and grape sauce. This was so good. The dish came wrapped in tin foil and we cut it open then poured the champagne and grape sauce over it and it sizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzled. So good.


Moving on…you may have noticed in my outfit pics…my new ring! Yep, PB got me the infamous YSL Arty ring for my belated birthday present :D So happy!! I love it!! I asked the sales lady what happens if the stone drops out..and she said that if I still have it then they’ll send it in to get it fixed, but if it drops and I lost the stone, then there’s nothing they can do. However, she said no one has ever come in reporting that the stone dropped..so I’m hoping it never will! I’m trying to be EXTRA safe when wearing it cos I tend to be kinda cho-lo (haphazard?) normally.


Surprise!

For my birthday this year I got 3 rings! My previous post was the Philipe Audibert one, from Nanz. This is my second one from PB and I’ll post the last one in my next update, from my mom!


I finally picked up the latest Elle UK with Lily Allen on the cover. Firstly, Elle UK is definitely one of my favourite magazines. Their editorials always blow me away but I normally only buy an issue if I like who’s on the cover, i.e. Lily Allen (love her). So i just thought I’d share some of my favourite looks from this month:


Isabel Marant means A) I need skinnier legs -.- and B) I needa get me a pair of pointed red pumps!


Yaaaayyy boobies 8


Camel is everywhere.


Dunno who she is but I love this look: loose baggy sweater over a tight bandage skirt with barelegs and super high heels.


…the dress…..gahhh..


Yay camel again! Can’t wait for Fall!!! You can’t see it but I loved this pic cos she’s actually wearing high-top chucks.


More camel!


Oh..my..god…so much hair envy!! Still in that disgusting phase of growing out my hair -.-


AND lastly, the only way to stay cool in this heat:

P.S. I’m off to Bangkok tomorrow with PB for a quick weekend getaway! We’re really excited cos it’s our first real holiday together..and it’s also PB’s first time in Thailand! I’ve been there a couple of times already but when I was younger, so I’m really excited to go back even if it’s for such a short time. Will update when I get back!

Zara pants, Random batwing-y top, Chloe Edith bag, Balencaiga Cork Sandals.


All necklaces DIY except for the colourful Accessorize one. Pouch necklace DIY.

The other day I was talking to my mom about my glasses. I remember about 2 years ago when my eye doctor said I would never be able to wear contacts again I teared up and was so about to cry my eyes out. At that time I was determined to start collecting sunglasses (once I heard Nicole Richie did too), so knowing that I had to wear glasses for the rest of my life made me so sad ):

Flash forward to 2 years later (uh, now I mean) and I’ve gotten so used to wearing glasses that I think I look funny without them! Especially since I’ve started wearing my current frames (bigger thicker D&G frames) I feel like they are now part of my look. My point is, my mom said that my “nerd” glasses are now my signature look. I do still wear contacts every now and then, especially when I want to wear sunglasses (that I’ve continued to collect despite rarely wearing them). I did however get my favourite Rayban avaitors changed to prescription lens and am hoping to maybe get Lasik one day so I can finally start digging into my collection :D

Do any of you guys have something that’s your signature look?


Anyway, like I told you, my uniform consists of black top, black pants, neutral shoes and neutral bag with tons of jewellery. I wore this outfit a few weeks ago to meet up with Wendy one last time before she left. Was also the first time wearing my new Balenciaga cork sandals. They were pretty comfy for the first few hours then started to hurt so I switched into flats but I ended up going out to party that night and I managed to wear them all night with no problem :D


Me and Wendy in Central (outside our favourite store, H&M!)

After meeting Wendy, I met Nanz at Starbys before our leather workshop (which I’ll talk about in another post) and she gifted me my belated birthday present!! This is actually a joint gift from her and my bestfriend Julie, so thaaaaaanks goizzzzzzz <3


Philippe Audibert feather/claw ring!


(Worn with vintage DKNY knut/bolt ring, random chain ring and studded ring)


Lastly, here’s the little magazine feature that I briefly wrote about in my last post. Me Lee did a great feature in Hong Kong’s Jessica Magazine (kind of like our version of Elle) about HK Fashion Bloggers. It was so great to read about some HK fashion blogs that I had no idea about and I was also happy that my buddies Cindiddy (who referred me, thx Cindy!!!) and HKFashionGeek were featured too!

Don’t ask about the translations cos I wouldn’t be able to tell you, (lol at my shitty Cantonese). I sent her the answers in English though and she had them translated, so maybe in my next post I’ll post my replies :D

and YES, i did notice the wrong spelling in my blog name and URL. God i was so sad when I found out but hopefully that won’t stop people from finding my blog and like PB said, there will always be opportunities in the future for people to discover my blog so I’m fine with it :D
