The other day there was a cocktail party after work. It started at 5:00 pm, so there was really no time to go home and change to get ready for the soirée. I decided to dress down my cocktail dress for school with a polka dot blouse, simple flats, and a berry lip. Then forContinue reading From Work to Party
California Dreaming
Whenever we go over to South Horizon, we always pass by the Ferrari store and drool. Since I was wearing a fire red shirt paired with my leopard print jeans, I thought it’d be fun to do my outfit shoot in front of this store–no we did not go in and pretend to feign interest…Continue reading California Dreaming
Black and Blue on Blake Pier
I love this dress, and I liked pairing it with black. I remember way back in high school I liked wearing navy and black together. It seems ultra conservative to me yet also very classy. I wore this exact outfit for Back to School Night, and I felt so chic in it that I wantedContinue reading Black and Blue on Blake Pier

Sundowner
I love the beach! I just love it. I feel so extremely lucky to live 10 minutes away from this one. In Hong Kong, especially on the south side, one can get to whatever kind of beach they’re hoping for–in minutes. There’s one with huge waves (Big Wave Bay) and there’s another one with tonsContinue reading Sundowner
