Rabbit Year Spirit

Celebrating Lunar New Year has always been one of the most exciting moments for me. I've always loved the festival. Of course, one of the many reasons why I love it is because I get to play all dressed-up.
Well, outfits don't have to be super exquisite or extra-ordinary because somehow in the end what's the most important is the spirit of the new year itself.
All wise up, am I right or am I right? :D



Dark red vintage motif dress with lace collar.
Most Chinese always wear red outfit on the first day. I don't like to be one of the many, so trust me when I tell you that it's not planned. The dress that suited my mood that day happened to be red. And thank God, it has motif and lace collar ,making it not giving off the smell of "I AM CELEBRATING CHINESE NEW YEAR TODAY OKAY" too obviously.



Worn with thin beige belt with ribbon accent and a pair of dark brown suede loafers.



Goofing around. She did, so he did too.



Managed to rake some red pockets.



With momma and dadda.



With hunnybunny



Peach motif blouse with wine tailored pants.
I'm into ethnic lately, so a little ethnic was sprinkled, that is the turquoise necklace with silver hardware. The rings are ethnic-ish too.
You know, my brother always says that I am the Dukun in the family, thanks to all my pieces of accessories.





The newly married and Derrick "super cute"



Lim #1 and Lim #2



Hong Bao distribution ceremonies



And (supposedly) begging red pockets from Fran.
She demanded us kneel before her, but that only happened in her dream.
Look at how proud she was, thinking that she had authority over us. Tsk tsk tsk..



Playing "ndoro dan hamba" was over. Camwhore chicks struck poses!!!! Like this!!!!



Or this!!!



Another motif chiffon top with deep purple skirt (I have weak spot for motif and am always attracted to unusual color, you know, the way deserts are attracted to rain).
Off to Brastagi and spend the night there.



Say hello to my "Jreng Jreng" arms.



In the evening, the weather's pretty cool. That's when this orange knit sweater came in handy. I'm tired of wearing shawlsand cardigans (because everyone else seems to wear shawls in Brastagi). This girl here wanted to be different, but........



this girl eventually had to succumb to the weather and had to use a shawl.
T_T
So much of being different, huh?? Boohoo......
Ignore me, I'm just blabbering.
The fact is shawls are essential accessories when going to mountains or highland areas. Remember to bring one always!!!!



Pretty cage with luminous lighting



Girl in the Diner.



That's all I can resume today. So tired, gotta hit the sack now, gonna continue in the next post. It's gonna be about exchanging gift. It's finally done, peeps !!!

And oh, here are my two students whom I forced to pose "Gong Xi" for me :



Javonn wished you "Happy Lunar New Year. Prosperity and Health all year long. Don't forget to bring Hong Bao to my house okay"



Annabelle wished you "Happy Lunar New Year" too.....



Till the next post, chicas. Adios :D

Camera on the go

Sorting through pictures from the Blackberry. Don't you just love how you can whoop out a camera and snap pictures away?

Mind the quality though.

This is back in May'10, I remember because it's Min's birthday and because this pic gave me a glimpse of chance that I might actually be thin!
But you know, pictures can sometimes be very misleading.


Case in point, very misleading cause I looked quite slim here then the next same pic I looked like a whale, true story.
So moral of the story is NEVER BELIEVE A THIN PICTURE OF YOURS!


Ahh... the first ( and so far, last) chick's converse night :).
We watched Rapunzel and it was very nice!


Zara Dancing Bear


:)


This was a wasteful night, dressed up and we ate someplace insignificant I cant even remember where!


This was when I had my buddhist wedding and we went to a restaurant to celebrate


This is from dad's camera phone, he very proud now it's his wallpaper how cute aww...


This is not from the blackberry but camera. Still it made the post because it's relevant and it's nice


I did my own make up that day, the old pink + brown!


Please pay attention to matching leopard flipflops and bag thanks


1st day of CNY


A nude pump and a whaaa..?? face


still 1st day of CNY.


This is fresh off Valentine's buffet dinner. So this is the very current fat looking me wtf.

Anyways, lay off the foods and we'll all be safe. Mark.my.words.

Sorry, fat crisis. Toodles.

Mom's Wardrobe Raid - Part 3

Deep blue chiffon pleated outer wear. It's loose with straps to fasten and when worn it looks like a cape.



Had this idea of pairing green and blue together. So here goes. :)





And apparently, jade green and deep blue look pretty good together, don't they? Colors are awesome.
Till the next raid. :)
Adios.....

Lace (further) Affair

I've worn this lace top before, but with different footwear and bottom. A friend told Fran that she thinks that probably Fran and I never wear the same things twice. Actually we do. It's just when I wear the same item again, I don't feel like taking pictures anymore.
And in fact, I always wear my clothes several times before I pass them to my cousins or my maids (but they are still in good condition when given away, okay).



I finally get a pair of deep green shoes. They're pumps and they're pointy!!! Just what I expected!!!!
Angel's wearing a lace-embroidered top and beige tailored-pants, with embellished black flats (and pointy too!!!) :D :D :D



I almost forget (again) I own this necklace.



I wonder if my sister and I had kids already, would they go crazy when they see their moms posing acting cute like this? I have this thought in my mind because I know I'm still gonna love camwhoring till I don't know when. So is Angel, I suppose.



Okay, maybe this is a more acceptable "Mommy's" pose



Ivory lace top, ladies (and gents?). Worn with floral skirt (from Zara and on sale, mad cheap only 30RM).
It's very seldom I find a skirt that can fit my as-wide-as-ocean hips, so this skirt is totally worshiped.



Okay, posting one more act-cool pic before I'm off.



And last but not least, here's my new baby, laced ankle boots. She's loved and worshiped too.
Adios, chicas. Till the next post...
Weee........
