Maison Martin Margiela for H&M Review

A late review of my Maison Martin Margiela for H&M purchase.
Having lined up a few hour and in the end got nothing I wanted at the Lanvin X H&M launch last year, I was reluctant to do anything like that ever since, I even find the H&M crossover projects very annoying for the fact that a lot of people out there just want to resell everything they get and make profits.

This time at MMM for H&M, again, I tried not to think about the launch and the cute fun candy clutch they make. I went to work as usual in the morning and knocked off at 7, someone called…
“Hey I’m at H&M, they still have a loooottttt of stocks!!”
“OMGGGG!!!Can you help me get the black leather flats??I’m a size 7!!!”
“……OK I think I've got you the last pair….
“Okayyyy I’m on my way, please hold on to them, do not let anybody touch them!!!”

so I guess that was my lucky day.

It’s great to finally see a restaurant with awesome architecture/design here in town. This place is going to be BIG, making the Star-Sun-Moon Street neighborhood even more fun. I CAN’T WAIT.

People often say there are nothing in Hong Kong except malls that are built by giant developers. I say, they didn’t look far enough and they made the statement way too early. Try spending a day or two in Sheung Wan Hollywood Road/Tai Ping Shan Street, or Wan Chai Star Street neighborhood. Those areas would give you a brand-new impression of Hong Kong.

Rag & Bone folsom platform sandals

We all know beautiful designer shoes aren't made for walking; they are lovely but usually not comfy. I can't go out in my Louboutins without having a pair of flats and adhesive bandages in my purse. Ferragamo and Tod's (ballerina) are great, but somehow their designs are a bit too classic that are limited to workplace only. I've been looking for great causal and walkable designer shoes for years, and finally this summer I found the perfect pair of them: 

Rag & Bone folsom platform sandals, cork wedges, 3.5"heel, 1.5"platform

 Adore the orange straps and thin light blue trims, they give a refreshing touch to the design.

Match my beige peekaboo.

I wear them almost everyday now, and they are by far the most comfortable wedges I've ever owned.

A day in Sheung Wan

Sheung Wan; a historical area

where East meets West is best demonstrated;

where diversity in cultures is being greatly appreciated;

where cafes, art galleries and temples can all be found in one street.

Flat White @ Barista Jam

A cup of good coffee is always heart-warming. 

       

I love walking around the old districts to look for the fading memories of the city.

We should show our love and support to our local stores and businesses, 

not just to protect them from vanishing and taking over by the large chain stores,

but also simply because they are good and unique.

 

I am wearing :

Dotted top from Urban Research

Rolled up navy pants, giant black ring from H&M

Bracelets from Forever21

A day on Gough Street

Sometimes we need to slow down our pace a bit,

just to feel and appreciate the greatness and peacefulness of life.
Like my interior design teacher always says, "appreciate the space itself, not the things in it."

Cafe Maison, Gough Street, Central;

a little boutique cafe that serves great pastry, coffee and cake.

Spent a few hours there just reading books, day-dreaming and enjoying the mint mocha.

Went on to join my friends at agnes b. cafe, it is located right next to Cafe Maison.
They place a rose on every table in the cafe, very romantic and french.

Me and my friend have matching purses for the day;

my Celine nano luggage, and her little Chanel flap bag. <3

I put my McQueen skull ring on her purse, aren't they just cute together?

Dating with my Celine Pouch

The weather in Hong Kong is getting much warmer these days, and I already can't wait to wear my spring clothing and accessories. I go to work today with my Celine Pouch, and I feel soooo "spring" and fresh when I look into the mirror and see my hand holding the beautiful pouch. Goshhhhhh, I am so in love with the bag and I couldn't help taking pictures of it.

Like I said in the previous entry, the color of the bag is called POWDER, it's light beige in the upper part, and tan in the lower part. I love how classy and lady the color is.

It's almost like I'm on a date with the bag, I match it up with some other accessories: the pinkish orange bracelet from McQueen, and the dark-green leopard scarf from Yves Saint Laurent. The three of them look perfect together under the beautiful sunlight this afternoon.

My nail color in here is a dusty-green from Bourjois 10 DAYS NAIL ENAMEL. The color is beautiful and chic, and they claim that the color lasts up to 10 days. We'll see how that goes.

Hope you enjoy reading my blog <3

Accessarize yourself

I am pretty much a girl that can't live without fashion accessories, maybe it's because I don't have a perfect figure to carry clothes like a model does, I rely on the accessories to brighten up my look. And I don't quite agree with the less-is-more idea...I prefer stacking my rings and bracelets to give a hardcore and dramatic feeling. Here's me today having fun with some of my new spring-summer accessories:

This season is all about the sweetest colors: pink, light blue, light orange, yellow, shocking pink and blue...
I wasn't a big fan of these seasonal colors, not that I didn't find them pretty, it's just if I were to spend a whole lotta money on a designer bag or a pair of designer shoes, I would definitely go for those classic colors so that I could carry/wear them forever.
But this season, after seeing so many beautiful pieces in all the cute colors, my heart literally melted...Like the moment I put those colorful bracelets on, the world and my life becomes sweeter, and I feel so young and innocent about myself lol

What's in my bag

Purse:  Celine Pouch in Powder, Spring 2012
Wallet: YSL, 2011 season unknown
Cardholder: Celine in Royal Blue
Others: handcream, lipbalm, Blackberry.

I just got the pouch from Paris last week and I'm absolutely loving it!!!I love the color, its like pinkish beige on the upper part, elegant yet girly. And it's also very very spacious, I have a Bottega Veneta Pouch with the same width, but it fits a lot less than the Celine does, and the leather is not as hard too.

I love doing the what's in my bag post a lot. Back then I used to check out the what'sinmybag videos on Youtube all day long. Cuz Iits really interesting to see what stuffs girls carry in their bags and what bags they carry everyday. As for me, I change my bags and wallets according to my mood and outfit of the day. And every time I change the combination, I do a post about it. Happy Blogging and happy shopping =)
