Navy & Reds

Very matchy matchy today. I put on mostly navy and reds in various patterns and textures.


Thrifted shirt and jacket, Zara dress, Uniqlo belt, unbranded tights, Marks & Spencer's shoes

Purple & Mustard

I'm not a big fan of purple, but these days I find more and more shades of purple/berry that flatters my skin color, including this recently thrifted dress. Love how it fits, love the bow detail on the neck, love the gold buttons and love the pretty roses pattern.


And it looks good with my mustard jacket.

A Grayscale Friday

I hardly wear anything grayscale. I didn't realize it but I didn't have anything bright colored today! Oh, it feels special! I still slap on different patterns tho ;)

Newly Thrifted Dress

Not liking myself coughing like mad non stop.
Liking my unbranded bow cream belt.
Not liking bad hair day (SC booked our stylist this Saturday, obviously he can't stand my daily bad hair).
Not liking how this outfit too Christmassy for spring.
Liking my newly thrifted dress.
Not liking how I've missed some buttons.


Obviously liking this Chapter7 jacket a little too much.

Muji turtleneck tee, thrifted dress (HK$30something), Chapter7 jacket, unbranded bow belt from maple, muji socks, mark & spencer's shoes

Finally I Found A Striped Tee!

I've been looking for a striped tee for the longest time! You might wanna laugh at me because you thought that it's something so simple. But, seriously. I had a super hard time finding one with the right stripes, shape, colors and all.

Do you have a stripey tee/top? Show me yours!

This one's from H&M, it's long enough to be tucked into bottoms perfectly, and it looks fantastic with a bit of red and leopard. Wore this bringing baby Marcus to doctor (he's well, his skin is just a bit dry. SC was just not taking any chances and got it checked by a doc anyway) and a nice Indonesian lunch to celebrate my helper's birthday.

H&M stripey tee, no brand cardi, no brand leopard scarf, no brand belt and pants from maple, pansy shoes from citistore

Love The Sleeves of This Shirt

Sorry for being boring. But when my brain gets stuck, this is my go-to combo. The combo you've seen again and again and again. Whatever top and this kinda skirt.
Yawn, but oh wells.
At least the sleeves are something I haven't done before. Loving this shirt for the sleeves!

Purple Shoes, Purple Bag #365FASHIONSHUFFLE

 Plaid (jacket) and floral (dress) and herringbone (tights) and solid (bag, shoes)

My hair isn't as bad as before, right?

I'm very moody and very irritable today. Luckily, a tall cup of icy espresso mocha brownie chillino helped.

The H&M Dress Everybody Has #365FASHIONSHUFFLE

H&M is everywhere, as well as Zara, Mango and many other brands, and we all start to wear the same clothes. I don't mind, it's up to us how to make the "global clothes" our own, right?

I am sure many of you have this H&M dress.
How do you wear yours?

Wind blew and the drapey sleeves did something funny ^_^


Thrifted vintage shirt, H&M dress, unbranded tights, wanko shoes, H&M and unbranded necklace, LV trouville bag

Threadless Camera Tee

Wore this to lunch, a meeting with SC's insurance agent & screening of The Rite last weekend.
The movie? Ahem, disappointingly not scary.

I was crazy enough to forget to take picture of the whole outfit, but I am sure you can imagine it from these shots ^_^

Threadless tee, Uniqlo hoodie & belt, unbranded scarf, Zara skirt, unbranded socks, shoes from Citistore

SC's Shirt, Vintage Jacket & Campaigning for Baby Marcus

SC's still in the hospital having some tests done. Wearing SC's shirt today, but it didn't make me miss him less (Does my saying this make you wanna puke? Sorry!)

Wore another cardi under the vintage jacket, the weather is warmer today (22C) but it gets really cold in the office.

Campaigning for Baby Marcus to win a photo contest to have his photo printed on Hong Kong Huggies Bus has helped SC and I take our minds off his being in a hospital etc...

Thanks so much for all your support, guys. Greatly appreciate it!

If you haven't voted and you want to, here are the handy links:

Thanks againnnn, we don't want Baby Marcus to miss the bus, don't we? ^_^

A Bit of Red & Camel #365FASHIONSHUFFLE

Clearer view of my cropped double breasted jacket I wore the other day. I added a punch of red…for a bit of cheering up, I think the tight's a bit too sheer for my taste, I must hunt a more opaque version with richer shade of red. I love red with camel <3

My helper helped me taking this photograph while SC is in hospital, I think it shall be a part of her job description now ^_^

Thanks for the best wishes & support which has been pouring in for SC. We’re very grateful. Some test results are back, hoping for good news tonight.

Zara Denim Skirt #365FASHIONSHUFFLE

I almost bought this skirt when it was sold full price at HK$399!!! Luckily I didn't, because it was discounted down to HK$89!!! When I saw it, and there's one in my size, I grabbed it without thinking ^_^
Very very pleased with this buy.

I thought a shot with flash might look something like what you see in Marc Jacob's ads, but of course, obviously, NOT in the above shot. Heeheheheh

I was gonna wear a pair of Argyle socks, but I think I'd bore you to death if I wore yet another pair of argyle socks.

...so I put on this pair of cheesy knee high socks with little pink hearts on it ^_^

I am having yet another bad hair day.

That explains the little gingham checkered bow hair clip.
It is highly inappropriate for work, even on a casual Friday, so I replaced it with a plain black pin once I get to the office. I added a pair of huge lensless vintage glasses to balance my chubby cheeks.

Plaid Jacket from Lady Story Sale

Saw this jacket Tuesday night on my way to dinner, and I absolutely love it! I love how it is roomy enough to accomodate my chunky arms...ah who am I kidding? My chunky everything! I love the black and white (it is something that I don't have in my wardrobe) and it was on sale! HK$99! Oh yeah!

As always, I just slap this jacket on other colors and patterns.

At least there's a common color on a few items to make it look a bit "color coordinated", the bag, the cardi and the stripes of the socks. Heheheh. My fringe annoyed me too much, I just had to pin it. It doesn't make me look better, but at least the fringe doesn't poke me in the eye now.

Sometimes you might wonder...don't I look weird dressed like this at work, or in the streets of Hong Kong?
Yes, I do. Not good weird, not chic weird, it's more old lady weird. But I don't really mind ^_^

Addicted to Bow Ties

I'm wearing SC's only bow tie to work today.
I want to need to buy more! I am addicted to bow ties!

I paired the androgynous top with something ultra girly, so ultra me :)

...and I put together this outfit very quickly, very randomly, and I think I did better than when I planned outfits carefully. I shouldn't have bothered.

SC's shirt & bow tie/  H&M sweater, skirt & bag/ Muji socks/ Unbranded belt/ Wanko shoes

Here are some outfits from previous days. You didn't miss much.
I wore this to work yesterday:

thrifted shirt/sc's sweater/cotton on skirt/mk klein down jacket/H&M bag/unbranded tights/M&S shoes/various necklaces 

This is what I wore on Valentine's day. Nothing remotely Valentine-ish, apart from the red MTR station wall, it was even a sloppy Monday for me.

MK Klein down jacket/ unbranded pants from maple/ shoes from Citistore/ H&M bag

This was the outfit I wore going nowhere, it was a disgustingly cold and rainy Sunday, and baby Marcus was having a stuffy nose.. boo!

Muji turtleneck tee/ Unbranded sweater, scarf and boots/ Uniqlo tights/ Marc by Marc Jacobs baby bag

We're missing the outfit I wore on Saturday 12th Feb, the pics are in another laptop. Oppps.
Happy mid week, how's your week so far?

Almost Chinese New Year #365FASHIONSHUFFLE

The year of the rabbit is almost here, and this year I couldn't find any affordable Chinese outfit that I like :(
Lucky I have these el-cheapo Chinese shoes, which I absolutely adore.
So happy to put them on last minute today with my otherwise very normal-borderline-boring outfit, just a little touch of my Chinese heritage.


My cliched combo...dress and thrifted vintage top. I like the bow print of this dress and the softest of soft pink of the thrifted top. The herringbone patterned tights and the belt hopefully added a splash of masculinity to this almost a little too sweet look.

I added a fluffy headband to complement the shoes and my red lips, and it reminds me of my better hair days. I miss my longer curly hair sorely T_T


Oh, it's quite a cold day, I put on this faux leather jacket to keep myself warm. Again, something not too sweet, to prevent this look from reaching its diabetic level ^_^'

Pardon my terrible fringe again, I forgot to comb before SC took the shot :p

Oh, the headband is hugely inappropriate for work, so I took it off when I'm in the office. Imma put it back on before going out tonight.

Happy almost CNY y'all~!

Thrifted Vintage Shirt #365FASHIONSHUFFLE

Whew! It's really not easy to keep up with this 365 fashion shuffle thing. I've failed to post pictures here last weekend, and only managed to post straight from my mobile phone to tumblr. Damn! I wouldn't go giving myself the beating though, my weekends are spent taking care of baby Marcus, and there's nothing more important than that, right?

Heheheheh. Babies make best excuses ;)

This is another typical outfit I normally put on when I get stuck with no idea. Thrifted shirt plus skirt. Done. Bored of this combo? Too bad :p

Top = thrifted 
Skirt = cotton on
Tights = no brand
Belt, bag = H&M
Shoes = wanko

Vintage Dress & Men Cardigan - #365FASHIONSHUFFLE

Today’s outfit ;)
Another very bad hair day, I had to secure my fringe with a pin… 


I fancied wearing a vintage dress today despite the cold, so I put on SC’s men’s cardigan under the jacket to keep myself warm.


The textures and patterns...


Print of the vintage dress...very spring and summery...


Warm and cozy, yet sophisticated tweed jacket.


The pattern of the men's cardigan and I love how it's bordered, it gives it a vintage feel...


The dotted socks and furry suede shoes.

Yawn. Is it Friday already?
Sadly, no.
Dress = thrifted
Jacket = Uniqlo
