Spring Formula
With the change in the season, I will sometimes notice that I have a similar outfit going on day after day. During the winter months, it was wearing double tights to keep me warm. Recently, when I’m getting dressed for work, I have noticed another routine happening. I’ve definitely embraced a spring formula: patterned fittedContinue reading Spring Formula

ThisContinue reading Mee & Gee, Wan Chai HK

The sun is out in Hong Kong, and the birds have arrived with new songs to sing. There is this one bird that I am enamoured with. He wakes me up each morning with this special call that just enchants me. I haven’t been able to spot him, so I have no idea what heContinue reading Birds in the Trees
