What I wore - Chambray shirt, white shorts and coral necklace

The temp's rising! Summer's really here!  

This was yesterday... Showers in the morning, hence the umbrella... 

By noontime it was a lot warmer, I had to remove the shirt and had to buy that 

lemon-yellow loose and comfy top =) sadly, there's no picture of that...

What I wore - my birthday!

 Occassion: My birthday [10.07.2012 - Sunday]

Where: Streets of HK

What I wore: 

Striped top, sold at my shop

Floral skinnies, 'D SHOP

Pink sandals

Arm party, also available at 'D SHOP

The wedge I'm carrying? Also sold at 'D SHOP...

What I Wore -- Date with the hubs

It was holiday for the hubs (and not for the kid) last July 1st, so what to do without a kid for a day?

Go out on a date!

We ate pizza and steak for lunch then we went to check out some gadgets for the home... and lastly, watched Charice perform on a giant tv at a home appliance store, complete with surround sound and comfy lounge chairs, nothing beats free entertainment!

What I wore:

Coral rompers

White H&M tee underneath

Aqua necklace

Aqua wedges

I love this aqua wedge also seen in this post, it looked a lot like this one that I'm digging

from here... Ain't the colors so very summer?

Stocking up for the summer...

 The 'heat switch' has been flicked ON!

What better way to enjoy the summer than to start hoarding stocking up on dresses!

i.love.summer.dresses.

They make my heart skip a beat!




3 maxis + a tunic

 

...as I am typing this, I already bought 5 in just a matter of 1 month! I would literally live in them this whole summer!

Romping in denims and shopping...

This photo is old, taken around Sept last year,

i put it up because I saw this pic of Audrina Patridge



My outfit inspiration



wearing denim rompers almost identical as mine...

 ... and I am getting so inspired by the perfect weather we're having at this time, and though it still gets a little chilly in the afternoons and at night, i am so excited and already looking forward to summer [but not the heat though!]...

And eventhough I still have clothes that are dying to make their spring debut,

i'm excited to shop for summer outfits!

And shopping I went... I was able to cross-out a few items in my spring summer must-have list -- bliss!

And as if I don't have enough wedge shoes to wear for spring and summer, I got another one -- a cork wedge! in a very yummy spring color [separate post for that *wink*], a cut-out ballerina flats in blue, a couple of comfy leggings, a white ruffly top with a cute back, a lime green spring cardigan, slim belts in diff. spring/bright colors and a black statement belt I intend to wear with the dress that hubby bought for me (yup, he buys me dresses -- bought me 2, and a week prior, he got me a black tee from Zara,
 he's that awesome!)

**pictures later -- camera is with hubby in Shanghai**

Would you wear this trend?

Korean fashion is the 'IN' fashion... They are mushrooming everywhere via online shops. Here in Shenzhen, i see them everywhere! So, when I shop, i get the luxury of choosing them personally, touching them, feeling the fabric, and most of all, i get to try them on first before buying them, something you can't do when buying online...

The 'trend' I'm seeing of late is the LACE shorts, or EYELET shorts... I've been seeing them in online shops and stores here and actually saw a couple of girls wearing them and it looked sooo cute on them i had to buy them!
I tried it on and wanted to know your opinions and IF you would consider wearing them...

ROMPER Stompin'!

I never really consider myself a romper kind of girl... but after seeing it as the 'outfit of the season' this sweltering heat of summer, it eventually grew on me.... and a 'love affair' between rompers and me started...

I love it because it's so comfortable... and you don't have to worry about
mismatched top and bottom.

The only challenge is when you need to go to the bathroom! *wink*

Beach Outfit Inspiration No. 2

Hello friends! I'm back with beach outfit inspiration no. 2, just like beach outfit inspiration no.1 it is also a dress yes, yet it's not as 'dressy' as the maxi in that set... And I think I can move around comfortably in this one and still look stylish, my two requirements in dressing-up.

I can easily pull the dress over my head if I want to swim and put it back on fuss-free!

And WEDGES! Oh, I love [cork]wedges!

Beach Outfit Inspiration No. 1

Sorry if it may seem to you that I've been neglecting my blog, I'm not... Blogspot.com is having issues with postings lately, i just don't know why...

Anyway, I have been browsing Polyvore lately for beachwear coz we're gonna be hitting the beach this weekend, YAY! I'm so excited!

This is beach outfit inspiration no. 1 - it's nice and stylish and I think it'll look good on beach pictorials and some lounging around, but I don't know if I'm gonna go for this look - the dress is so high-maintenance [mental note to self: Be reminded that you got an 11-year old and a puppy! LOL!] I think I'm gonna need something I can run around with... Need to browse some more, be sure to drop by again coz I'll be posting more outfits in my future posts!

Maxi Dress

I have the same exact white maxi dress that i haven't worn yet because it's too long... I tried to wear it once by pulling it up and folding the upper part, hiding the straps making it a tube maxi dress but the lining ended up too short, making it look funny... so I didn't!

I don't know what I'd do with it, should I cut a bit in the hemline? Not sure...

Oh, I could wear a platform sandals just like what's the model's wearing...
