Ho Ho Ho

Last year we had Ds & Santa picture taken at Dh's company kids' xmas party. Dh complained the Santa they hired was not a good looking Santa. This year, I went to mall and got in line, which was 1 hour long, paid 30 bucks. they say you get what you pay for. - well, this expensive Santa is indeed a good looking Santa!

what i wore in the picture is a cashmere/cotton cape (by Saks Classic) i got from last year's saks crazy sale. I saw a picture of Jessica Simpson from peoplestylewatch.com in a similar cape. it reminded me that i have one too.

the rest of the outfit:
bag: Tod's
red quilt skirt: Pleasantly Surprised - a Asian brand
boots: Via Spiga

  5. Hi Claudia,

    thank you for your compliment for DS' santa picture. i looked a few more santas these days, and realized how nice our santa this year was. he has natural white beard...

    the skirt is fun, huh? i love those Japanese old fashion details. a new piece gives a old piece some modern life.

  6. FF/Julia,

    Thank you very much for your beautiful comment.

    I rarely use this bag. someone from TPF told me it looks like one of hermes bags. i posted it there one time.

    you too, have a wonderful holiday season,

    shop till drop! :)

  12. Hi Julia,

    My holiday season is going fine so far, pretty busy, but I like being busy. I got almost all of my Christmas shopping done already, most of it done online ;-). Thank goodness for online shopping since I have to do a lot of traveling for work these past two months. Have you gotten your shopping done as well?

    Yeah, Tod's bags are my work-horse bags. I don't have to baby them at all, and they still look good; I absolutely love them!

  13. yes, i did half of my shopping online too. still i enjoy going to the mall and do physical shopping whenever i can. i like to be able to see what i get in person.

    i am almost done with xmas shopping. today i am going out to get some gift cards. then pick a day of the rest of the week to ship gifts out.
