What to wear for a four days of work at a resort!? I love my job! This past weekend I was away in beautiful Kota Kinabalu for a work conference. Meeting up with teachers from all over Asia meant I was able to catch up with many friends made at the different posts we’ve had.Continue reading Style Story: Work AND Resort Wear
Packing 101: Choose a Theme Continued
It may look like a mess, but there is some order here: only black and white for this weekend work/resort trip. For my last trip, which happened to be work related, I chose a theme: flowy, culotte pants. Again, I am on a work related trip, and I “resort”-ed my packing to a theme. HoweverContinue reading Packing 101: Choose a Theme Continued
The Bag with the Worst Wrap
This sweet version should be arriving any minute. The gold details really attracted me–so luxe but sporty all the same. I got it from ASOS. There’s a bag out there that is the ideal carry all but for some reason it gets a really bad wrap. I’m not even sure what to call it anymoreContinue reading The Bag with the Worst Wrap
The Fab 40s in Marsala and Denim
Today I bring you The Fab 40s in Marsala and Denim. The six of us in the fab 40s each chose an outfit themed with “Marsala and Denim.” To be honest, I don’t think about my age that much. I know I’m in my 40s, but it doesn’t really phase me when it comes toContinue reading The Fab 40s in Marsala and Denim
Style Story: Back to Work Outfits
My style story this week has returned to work outfits–well at least three out of the five days! On both Monday and Friday I was able to dress down which is rare for me. In fact, I seem to rarely wear jeans; I think it’s time to invest in a new pair… This is theContinue reading Style Story: Back to Work Outfits
India’s Beautiful People
This will be my last instalment from India–until my next trip. And there will be another one because India has become that essential place that replenishes my soul. I know I’ve been writing so much about India whether it’s about packing, my adoration of Ganesh, fashion bloggers from India, or the outfits I wear travelingContinue reading India’s Beautiful People
I Love India
I love India! I know, I know, enough already, but just give me today and tomorrow to express some more of my love for India. I have to get it out of my system for the time being, and then I’ll be all set till the next visit. I’m often asked out of all theContinue reading I Love India
India Blogger Roundup
It’s time for an India Blogger Roundup! It’s no lie: I enjoy rounding up bloggers–especially when I travel somewhere. I found some great Jakarta and Shanghai bloggers, and then last week, inspired by my own short hair, I rounded up some short hair bloggers. Now with India fresh in my memories, I found five, absolutelyContinue reading India Blogger Roundup
Style Story: India Travel Outfits
I’m back from my travels to India! I’ve decided that it’s possible that my heart needs a trip to India once a year, but more on that topic on Wednesday when I write. I was quite happy with the way I packed for India–I stuck to flowy pants with tees layered with a long sleeveContinue reading Style Story: India Travel Outfits
Packing 101: Choose a Theme
It’s March, so it’s about that time of year when I head out on a school trip with 20 students. Like last year, I’m in India. I scheduled this post after I packed for the trip. I’ll pretty much be did all the same things I mention in this post about packing for adventure travel,Continue reading Packing 101: Choose a Theme
The Story of My Ganesha
This little Ganesh was given to me as I was leaving India back in 2009. A Ganesh should always face you right when you enter into a room. Also, if the Ganesh breaks or becomes harmed in any way, he should be immersed at the next Ganpati Festival. I’m in India right now, but IContinue reading The Story of My Ganesha
Short Hair Bloggers Roundup
As I was on my way to short hair, I began realizing there are not many short hair bloggers out there. Like really short hair! Yes, some crop their locks around the chin or shoulder level, but the really short pixie, it’s not so common. For that reason, I tweeted out to my peeps andContinue reading Short Hair Bloggers Roundup
