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 my turn! And since I knew a couple of things about this July–like no wifi out at the lake alongside total lake style, I went with cut offs. Of course. I’m very typical; cut offs are basically all I wear. I’m also lazy when it comes to my summer vacation! Out here in northernContinue reading Blue Jean Baby in My Cut Offs–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
“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
The Fab 40s have taken a little four month break, but we’re back, in VELVET! I’m no stranger to the velvet love. In fact, last spring I compiled all the velvet looks I’d created in one single post; there were eight looks in total! Since that post, I’ve continued to add velvet to my closet–hereContinue reading The Fab 40s are BACK! In Velvet
I get pretty excited when a brand reaches out to me–it’s like, “Yes! I’m doing something right!” When a female entrepreneur contacts me, I get even more excited–like with this cozy loden green lounge suit/pajamas. Pauline Durban founded Covered Perfectly when she couldn’t find tops that made her feel good while wearing them. Rather thanContinue reading Covered Perfectly
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
Jenny from A Pocketful of Polka Dots called ruffles this month. At first I was like, “Meh. I’m not such a ruffle girl.” But then I realized if I took a look in my wardrobe, it’s actually filled with ruffles. I had a laugh at myself!! There were so many options from a ruffle unitard,Continue reading The Fab 40s in Ruffles
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
