When Sheela called “Laced Up,” for this month’s Fab 40s theme, it was a no brainer. Of course I maintained my sartorial signature: sneakers! And of course, this pair of over-the-top, clunky sneakers have their own little back story…. I can’t remember where I first spied the Fila Disruptor last spring, but once I did,Continue reading Laced Up: A Fab 40s Post
It’s true! I love HK!! When Jennie called statement tees for this month’s blogger collaboration, I was like “PHEW!” That’s basically all I wear–every day, with a pair of sneakers. Even last month when I struggled, I reverted back to a statement tee and sneaks! Of course, because I’m a silly overthinker, I thought toContinue reading Statement Tees: I love HK–A Fab 40s Post
I think I pretty much missed the memo this time around for our Fab 40s blogger collaboration. Tales of the Unexpected…hmmm, what exactly does that mean? I spent a good couple of weeks hemming and hawing on the theme Suzy set out for this month. I had no idea what to do. Seriously, I wasContinue reading Tales of the Unexpected: A Fab 40s Post
“Culottes, culottes for sale, fifty cents a culotte!” Silly me, but for some reason the famous children’s’ book Caps For Sale came to my mind for today’s collaboration with The Fab 40s. I used to read that book to my kiddos over and over, and they would laugh at those silly monkeys every time. IContinue reading Culottes, Culottes for Sale: The Fab 40s in Culottes
It’s March, and everyone dealing with the end of this winterish month is eager for spring’s rainbow! For all of us in Hong Kong are winter chill is over but we still quite don’t know how many layers to wear. Suffice it to say that a jean jacket is always the perfect layer this timeContinue reading Rainbow Bright! A Fab 40s Post
Staying warm and stylish. I don’t know. I am finding it very hard to stay warm and remain stylish this winter. It’s like I’ve lost any style sense. I mean, when looking back on these pictures, the first thing that comes to my mind is bag lady. I mean what was I thinking?! Yet, asContinue reading Staying Warm AND Stylish–A Fab 40s Post
At one time I had so many different collaborations going on with different girlfriend bloggers around the world. Then, for various reasons they all ended…. But now, I bring you a reunion with my very best girlfriend blogger: Sheela! Sheela is the one who got The Fab 40s started. She’s the one I can countContinue reading A Girlfriend Blogger Collab: Playsuits with Sheela
This was the first post. We styled the Pantone color of the year: marsala with denim. (Look how short my hair was!) On Kremb de la Kremb since March of 2015, every single last Monday of the month has been dedicated to a post from The Fab 40s. For two and half years there haveContinue reading Favorites from The Fab 40s
It’s the twentieth, so therefore Samantha, Anna and I plus Liyana are brining you a Ping Pong Piece. For August we are featuring wide legged pants. I must say right off the bat that I may have not taken the challenge all the way. I probably should have featured these wide leg pants: myContinue reading Wide Legged Pants: Ping Pong piece No.5
I was so happy when Anna called a cover-up for July’s Ping Pong Piece; it’s pretty much all you’ll find me in this summer out at Spirit Lake. Although my version of a cover-up is a little different: it’s a very old white fisherman sweater. It’s been a very breezy summer, so while I amContinue reading Cover-Up: Ping Pong Post No. 5
Debbie, from Fashion Fairy Dust, and I have been shopping again! This time I let her know that I’d been wanting a black and white gingham top. So just like last month, we went to Instagram and sent direct messages back and forth of items we liked. It’s amazing all that we can do inContinue reading A Ginham Top–Shopping with Debbie
With it being my turn to choose the Ping Pong Piece this June 20th, I am sure it comes as no surprise that I went with my summer (or pretty much year long) staple: cut offs! These particular cut offs are my absolute fave; meanwhile my husband (and one of my sisters) hates them. HeContinue reading Cut Offs: Ping Pong Piece No. 4
