    Fringe Fringe (Bag Sponsored)

    September 10, 2015

       Earlier in the summer, Sashion, a Canada based online boutique introduced me to their collection featuring young, less commercial Chinese designers. I was very much intrigued by the great cause and the idea behind it, and felt compelled to give them a try. This white Min bag, in short, is

    Summer into Fall: the Suede Skirt Going Strong

    September 9, 2015

       Either I like it or not, everything Fall is now coming to us at full speed, replacing this glorious past season I’d rather live in all year long. Good news is: the much coveted summer suede skirt is still going strong for Fall. These ultra versatile bottoms come in all

    A Bit Bodycon

    September 7, 2015

    I cannot say bodycon is my thing – but I’m biased here because this dress is indeed made by the talented Alexander Wang. I wish I wasn’t so oblivious to actually miss the back shot – the zipped-through back was one of the things, along the name-dropping, that prompted a

    Broderie Anglaise Midi

    August 26, 2015

    I wish the French label, Paul & Joe, were easier to find in the country. I found this skirt on Net-a-Porter and was thrilled to snag the last size 0 in stock. This white cotton skirt has open embroidery, a.k.a. broderie anglaise (allow me to be fancy once), all over

    Fit n Flare

    August 15, 2015

    Details make or break a dress and this LBD is full of delicate, extraordinary minutiae. The bodice is dotted with fine, embroidered feathers of the same color; the banded waist creates subtle dimensions; and the raised seaming going down the flounce makes an elegant finish. The fit cannot be better –

    Summer Stripes

    August 11, 2015

    Sporty stripes rarely fail. This Marni dress has the cutest monochrome stripes softened with sheer, layered silk fabric. With its chic mid-length and neon waistband, the skirt was love at first sight. I’m wearing a size 36 – the smallest available by then. It fits okay but I’d go down

    Summer Twirls

    August 7, 2015

    I felt the urge to jump and twirl in a this chiffon pleated skirt! Despite the scorching heat, wearing this light and flowy skirt keeps my spirits high. The midi length, the elegant pink-black-duo, and the fine pleats all together make an unparalleled ensemble. Here’s a quick word about its slightly tricky fit though: I’m

    Black Satin

    August 3, 2015

    Acne Studios makes some of the chicest designs out there, and I’m obsessed with this dress by them. The thick satin has perfect drape; the cross-over panels on the back add just right amount of details to the clean-lined cut. I’ve worn it with sandals, sneakers, and have tucked it into a

    Day to Evening

    July 31, 2015

    This is an easy-breezy day-to-evening outfit. I love the asymmetrical top so much that despite its slightly roomy fit, I decided to keep it and pay for the alternation (I’m wearing a size P here). These Alexander Wang Lovisa pumps are extremely comfy – I wore them for a whole day

    Comfort is the Ultimate Luxury

    July 29, 2015

    Galleries and museums are my top go-to places on a rainy summer weekend. And what’s a better ensemble for those trips than a comfy chic no-fuss outfit like this? Like I said before, these silk pants from Aritzia are my No.1 favorites this summer. The equally chic linen-silk blend top is made by Brochu
