Happy Monday everyone! Hope you’ve had a wonderful weekend. Today I’d like to post another fashion challenge outfit: “A red one with your RG Birkin.” challenged by dear reader Birkinmary.
Do you wear reds in summer? How do you prefer to match this powerful color? :-)

Top: H&M, skirt: COS, necklace: DIY, flats: Salvatore Ferragamo, bag & scarf: Hermès.
I bought this leopard skirt months ago and finally got to wear it yesterday. If you are fond of animal prints, how do you prefer to wear them? A small splash of leopard here or there or do you also enjoy animal prints as a whole? ;-)
Top: Zara, skirt: D&G, necklace: COS, pumps: Marni.

Do you have a style icon? I don’t have a particular one in mind, but I do like those who make efforts before stepping out of the door, in order to look effortless. Pretty paradox, ah? lol~~ BTW, I’ll be on a business trip next week, so see you in a week. Have a fabulous weekend everyone! :-)

Happy May First everyone! Reader featherfactor challenged me to create an “All American” outfit with my RG Birkin. I came up with this ensemble because the essence of American style means for me a balance between timeless and modern, something relaxed, easy-to-wear, but in the meantime very urban chic.
The mix of red, blue and white echoes the color of the American flag, it seems to make this outfit more “American”. lol~~ But the suede rope belt and the long necklace are, on the contrary, more me. They bring a bit of personal character to the whole look. ;-P Hope you like it, dear Katherine!

Since we are leaving for Easter holiday tomorrow, I thought I’d do a quick post today. An outfit mixed with at least four patterns as challenged by Julide. :-)
When I read the challenge, a skirt in Miao ethnic print mixed with something in delightful African tribal pattern came into my mind, but unfortunately I couldn’t find the right pieces in my wardrobe, so I ended up with this simple stripes/dots combo (hope you don’t find it too boring, dear Julide). I wore this outfit last Saturday and felt, well, really great. ;-)
Wish you all a wonderful Easter with lots of sweet treats! ;-P

Dress & belt: H&M, top: a no name one I’ve had for ages, shawl: COS, flats: Miu Miu.

Happy Monday eveyone! Are you ready for the reader’s challenges? The outfit I’m showcasing today is a casual ensemble with a pair of navy pants and an H carré. I love the combination of cozy harem pants and the playful sweater with irregular polka dots. The H carré is perfect for the April weather and adds a bit of chicness to this casual urban look.
So my dear Birkinmary, what do you say? Do I pass the exam? ;-P

Sweater & pants: COS, scarf: Hermès (Fantaisie Pittoresque), shoes: Maison Martin Margiela.
So my lovelies, I’ve chosen these two challenges for the first round of our game:
- a casual one with a pair of navy pants and an H carré
- one ensemble with 4 or more patterns
Photos will be taken & posted soon. For today, let me share an old picture as an appetiser. Enjoy your weekend and see you next week! :-D

Happy Monday everyone! I hope your weekend was wonderful! We spent an utterly busy but fun two days, filled with a Sunday brunch with friends, swimming under the sun, a poker evening with great music… and I also did a little shopping on Saturday (got myself some nice summer clothes).
As I checked my blog this morning, I saw this comment from a dear reader:
“Your pictures are exquisite and inspiring! Would you accept fashion challenges from your followers? I’ve got two outfits in my wish list to propose:
- A red one with your RG Birkin.
- A casual one with a pair of navy pants and a H carré.”
I never did fashion challenges before but it sounds like a fun game, so why not? If you are interested, please feel free to participate. Simple write down you wish outfit like the lovely Birkinmary did. I cannot guarantee everything but I’ll try my best to fulfill every requirement and of course, not letting you gals down. lol~~
For the first round, I would like to select two of your wish outfits at the end of the week. The pictures will be posted next week. So… let the game begin! :-P

I seldom plan outfits in advance, because you rarely know what mood you are going to be in on a given day, right? But when I heard that we’ll have 21°C on Saturday, I just couldn’t help thinking about this one.
So hurry Saturday, please come quick! lol~~
