CNY to KOA

This past weekend was filled with Chinese New Year (CNY) celebrations throughout Hong Kong.  We shared in some of the ceremonial celebration and enjoyed the long weekend, before heading out for a celebration of our own.  Here are a few pictures from the last few days…more to come…

Even the ivy was in the mood for Valentine’s Day…ironically growing right next to a chapel.

Spotted-Monogrammed

Personalizing your own style…we do it everyday when we get dressed.  But an extra step to personalizing your own stylish items is monogramming.  To be honest, I only own a couple monogrammed items and I believe they are both canvas bags I’ve had forever from L.L. Bean.  Hint, hint to my hubby for some upcoming V-day jewelry, haha!  I do, however, own a few personalized pieces of jewelry (my Vintage GRACE ring and most recently my GBE bangles), and while living in Malaysia I had the unique opportunity to personalize a hand-made, collared, button-down blouse.  Today I’m styling this personalized blouse, although not stitched with the typical monogramming which is only your initials, as a DAY style, and number 60 of MY ONE HUNDRED – Monogrammed…because everyone needs to add a little personalization to their style.

Happy Friday and have a great weekend.  For those of you who celebrate CNY, Happy Chinese New Year (Kung Hei Fat Choy)…the Year of the Snake!

Earth Tones

Today was a cloudy day in Hong Kong, as most days in the winter time are, so I brought out some of my warm earth tones for today’s WORK style.  When I walked outside, I realized that my combination almost blended into the colors of the mountain in the background!  Oh, and I added a bit of FLARE to my Earth Tones as well.  On my blazer, I pined on my Gecko/Lizard brooch in honor of a recent visitor to our apartment.  I still have no idea how this little lizard made his way up almost 30 floors into our unit, but he did!  So, after almost 20 minutes of my husband and I running around the apartment, lifting up our carpets and jumping up on our couches (well, that was me), we safely returned him down to ground level.  Hopefully he will make it back to his family.  Have a great Wednesday!
