I love my warm sweater

Posted on April 8, 2014 by Grace

Although I have washed, folded and stored all my winter sweaters away for the season, the cold weather keeps lingering here in Hong Kong.  This past weekend the blowing winds and gloomy skies forced me to bring out one sweater which I always keep nearby, my “around the house” sweater.  It’s so cozy and cuddly that I just couldn’t help wearing it “outside” the house on this day.  My long-sleeved graphic tee spoke my mind as I took a picture trying to mirror its image – “I love my warm sweater”.  Although, I must admit I’m ready to start wearing my spring dresses!  Hope you had a lovely weekend.

Kickin’ It

Posted on March 18, 2014 by Grace

A great laid back style for the weekend walking around the city…  It’s amazing when you don’t have a car and you live in such a walk-able city, how your choice in footwear dramatically changes.  My Chucks definitely help with the long walking days around Hong Kong Island.  I hope you had a great weekend.  Happy Tuesday!

Wedge Walking

Posted on March 11, 2014 by Grace

Wedge sneakers seems to be a bit of an oxymoron in fashion.  Sneakers are supposed to be flat and comfy for lots of walking, whereas wedges are usually the complete opposite.  In the US, there seems to be a lot of bad press for how ugly wedge sneakers are or even how it’s a trend gone bad.  So as much as I initially agreed with the reviews and the whole strange concept behind a wedge sneaker, I decided to give them a try last fall…and I have to admit, I secretly love mine!  Here in Asia, they are everywhere as they are not ONLY a fashion trend, but a NECESSITY for us petite under 5’9 model-height women!  On the weekends when I want to walk around the city, be comfortable, but still have a little height and feel a little more feminine, my wedge sneakers are the first things I grab.  So before you knock ’em, you may want to try them.  Oh, and what’s more fun than velcro, ha!
