Lady's Day Out at Lotus

Every two month, we get together and enjoy some time without kids and husbands. We went to this nice Taiwan buffet place today. After 2 hours lunch, other ladies went to a new beauty salon owned by a friend's friend.  I had to drive home because my belly bothered me. I believe I had too much of that yummy red bean soup...

too much of good stuff can turn bad. indulging needs to be under control.

 there, i have two faces! when i look at husband's camera.

when i look at myself in the mirror 

i had a pair of booties on when i was out. they went much better with the outfit.  i did not want to bring dirt to our bedroom so i put on a pair of clean shoes for the photo. The top is M Missoni with attached scarf. Ferragamo clutch.

A Raining Day Outfit

Yesterday I decided I need a garment rack - like those at the fashion show back stage. I will put together a outfit and hang them on this rack when my inspiration hits or when I see a cool outfit on fashion magazine.  it fits up to 15 outfits. So, next time, before i head out, i can just look at that rack and pick one of them!

It rained a lot today, we went out as we planned. I did not actually bring my new bag because of the rain. But the rest outfit seemed fine for a rainy day to run some errands and meet friend for lunch/chat.

Chanel Dark Beige GST

It's finally here!

it is brand new. hardware was protected well.

Summarize:

Overall, it is perfectly shaped. under my detail-obsessed eyes, I got to say it is almost flawless... there is one single needle thread was not tight enough- i fixed it with my little helpers from my tool box very quickly. it seemed the bag went through a rough trip... both packaging box and Chanel box were quite beat up. but bag is fine - thank my SA for packing the bag well.

I am keeping it and will use it as often as I can.

Leather Skinny Cargo Pants

We are having a triple playdate today. After a big Chinese food buffet, big boys went to shooting range; girls checked out each other's new stuff; little boys plays this and that.

 I took a couple of pictures of my new pants.

my friend got a distressed suede leather jacket yesterday...

Poncho in the Park

Spring played a peekaboo today. We did not miss it and enjoyed a sunny warm day at BC Park.  walking people, running kids, skaters on ice... a brand new playground in the park!

I gave some thoughts about what i would wear this morning when I having breakfast. and i remembered the TB wool poncho i bought around xmas...

Burberry Ballet Flat

It is pretty hard to keep fashion diary going for me lately. I have not worn any cool, fashionable outfit - this is the main reason. 

I bought a lot of make-up, skin care and beauty accessories this month. plus a pair of comfy mommy shoes. 

Today we went to the mall with a friend. I wore a modest outfit, red Hugo Boss Black label silk jersey top with chiffon ruffles,  houndstooth wool skirt, Wolford stocking...all the usual suspects.  I am pretty much molded into a specific style. I have hard time to get out of it unless i spend more time and effort to make some changes. is this one of signs of being older?

B had a wonderful playdate in his current girlfriend's house.

these are the ballet flat my friend got at Nordstrom today. As of myself?  I got a pair of cedar wood shoe trees for hubby. and some under garment for myself...
