Halloween

I saw these costumes on these two models and I would love something like that for Halloween, but I was unable to find something similiar which was decent. I would say this would be my first choice.
I think this is cool and sexy, but I just don't have the courage to dress like that and walking out in public plus I look horrible with that blonde wig:)


This would be my second choice only if I could do the face paint make up that look as good as this.

I went through different make up tutorials do the cat make up and all sort of other dramatic make up, wiped off my face with make up remover several times, and I gave up trying to look different. I ended up dressing like MJ look except I was missing one white glove:). In the pic I wore:
Black legging
black Oscar De la Renta sweater
Christian Louboutin Fringe boots
Hat from Forever21 purchased last year

I love anything white and some soft color blouses and dresses















I love all white and Ivory dresses, blouses. White makes me feel pure, and soft pink like the dress above makes me feel soft,pretty and romantic. I especially love draping details on tops, skirts and dresses.

I don't always go couture




As much as I love designers and couture, I don't like to look fancy on daily basis. The fancy designer and couture are more for special occasion. For everyday and casual stuffs, I particularly love Theory, Vince, J-crew and few other brands when I find cute things that are reasonably priced. I ordered a pair of khaki skimmer pants from Jcrew.com last week, it arrived on Thursday and I am wearing it now, I love how it fit and how very comfy and casual it feels--> the result, call me crazy if you want, but I ordered three more pairs in three different colors. I can't beat the sale price of $14.99. The total cost for three pairs of pants come to $57 which included tax and shipping. Regular price $69.99. Here they are:

Awaiting for my goodies to arrive and Nha-Khanh's Debut show

Jil Sander






I attended Nha-Khanh's Debut fashion show lastnight at the Myerson Symphony Center in Dallas. The event turned out nicer than what I thought it would be. Lots of beautiful fashionistas were present at the event including some of my beautiful friends. I also met and made new friends as well. For the event, I wore black Jil Sander dress from Fall 2009 collection, necklace from Nordstrom and Giusepi Zanotti. Beside, I've been cutting back and realistically speaking slacking off with my work out routine, these days I don't do as hard-core, just three days a week and less weight, less intense. I want to start a new work out routine again to prepare myself for a photo shoot before my next birthday:) in 2011.

J-Crew 30% sale

Giambasttita Valli Pencil Skirt, it fits like it was made specifically for me. I love pencil skirt. It is essential in any working women's wardrobe.

Osca De La Renta Sweater, 100% cashmere. It feels so good on. I think $200 for a sweater is still a bit much considering a deep discount, but the drop on the back is so unique and beautiful, more over I can wear it more than one ways. I decided to keep the sweater.

J-Crew Calista Cami in Taupe on sale $27.99 check www.jewcrew.com to order your yours

This J-crew gold necklace would go perfectly with the gold accent on the RM dress I have, and only $17 after 30% sale. It's also vailable in white, but I think all gold version looks better.

This is great with jeans, Capri below tucked in. Love the soft silk of all J-crew blouses. I am a big fan.

I love ruffle anything, and love the print on this blouse too. Would be great with capri, skinny jeans or black pencil skirt. Another $27 deal
It's my first time ordering pants from Jcrew. Let's see how they will fit me:). It's like a steal at $10.50 after the 30% discount:)

I love when J-crew has their additional 30% all sale items. Their blouses are great for work, it's nice to send to my besties as gift and not having to pay too much:). When Juicy Boy-short goes on sale at neimanmarcus.com, I stock up for myself and use them as gifts to my besties and nieces.

work out gear

My favorite work out gear has always been Nike DRIFIT pants, their sport bra is the best too. At $40 each, you can find them at almost any Nike outlets. I have them in all colors available at the store. Me doing plank; it is a good work out for balance and core.


when something is meant to be for you, it will be yours in the the end




I came accross this beaty two months ago at Neiman Marcus at Willow Bend Mall in Plano in size 6. I wanted it, but I thought it was still a bit too pricey plus it was not in the right size. If I was going to pay so much for a dress, it better fits right without having to alter or do anything to it.

Earlier this week, I went to Neiman Lastcall at Grapevine and came across this beautty again, but this time in my perfect size, size 2. With the addtional 30% promotional went on at the time, I couldn't help but render my debit card out to so I can bring her home. My first RM, Roland Mouret dress. The color of this dres even goes perfect with my CL pumps that I bought while back and having hard time to find a perfect outfit to match the shoes, now she has a friend:)

Couple of weeks ago, Ms. Mandy, the pretty pettite elegant blogger texted me a pic of the dress she was trying on at the mall. She didn't want it because she already has it in white so I ended up purchasing the dress over the phone and it was shipped to me few days later. Thanks Mandy. Please allow me to present my two new beauties.
