Lee Jeans White Label


I joined a few of my favourite HK bloggers (hi JJ and Denise!) to style a few pieces from Lee Jeans' new White Label collection.   The pieces were very classic with a fun twist, and perfect for mixing and matching this summer.  I went for two simple pieces and put a grunge aesthetic to the mix.  I'm love the slight ombre in the shirt and grey seems to always be my colour of choice when it comes to skinny denim.  Go check out the collection in Lee Stores now.

that extra 24 hours

One Teaspoon top.  Stolen Girlfriends Club skirt coming soon to Christing C.

Long weekends always sneak up and surprise me at the most unexpected times.  I guess being self employed means calendars mean nothing more than a long list of meetings, parties, and dates.  Is it really the boy's bday soon?   We never plan more than two weeks in advance and ignore deadlines until the absolute last minute.  I wonder if we'll ever grow out of this frivolous habit.  Hope not.

Polkadot Boutique launches Cameo, Hong Kong

Cameo jacket and shorts
Sandals c/o Steve Madden

Mixing prints is definitely a fun pastime of mine, but matching prints is equally exciting.  I was instantly drawn to this cute print set designed by Tale and Pernille, the Norwegian duo behind Cameo.  The fact that the jacket was a bomber made my instant liking even more evident.  I paired it with nothing but barely there sandals and a tan I acquired during the few sunny hours we experienced this weekend. 

Cameo's collection emulates 1970's inspiration, but with a distinct contemporary twist.  Seriously on trend, integrating silk fabrics and bright prints perfect for summer picnics and cocktails on your favourite terrace.  I couldn't get over the silk bombers, sheer blouses, and brightly printed dresses.  Polkadot Boutique have launched Cameo at their boutique this May.  Go check it out along with many other local and international designers they have on offer.

 Had a single night in Macau last week, and it felt like the perfect little break from our usual city activity.  Think gigantic room with bright views at Grand Lisboa, mouthwatering Portuguese cuisine at Guincho a Galera, delicious scents of sugar and almonds mingling through crowded streets, a single sunny afternoon climbing to view the city's grand melange of old and new, a Michelin starred Chinese feast followed by the absolute best egg tarts at The Eight, and just general rain gazing and chilling with the boy.  Only an hour away and still feels like another world.  

Thank you to Grand Lisboa for the perfect stay.

Winederlust is on every Wednesday at Woobar, W Hong Kong
8-10:30pm
$260 HKD per person

As many of you probably already know, W Hong Kong is one of my favourite hang outs so it's no surprise I went to check out their Winederlust night with the boy.  Woobar was buzzing per usual and we snacked and sampled the abundant selection of wine and cheese.  The boy and I are obsessed with cheese platters so you can imagine our giddy excitement when we spotted all the yumminess on offer.  Most HK foodies will know it's "Le French GourMay" this month so go over on Wednesday to taste the selection of Burgundy wines and French cheeses.  Definitely one of the best date nights.

spikes on spikes

Carin Wester Romy Blazer from Christing C., H&M mesh tank, One Teaspoon shorts, Christian Louboutin heels and bag.
Dancing through one big night after the next is taking a toll on my day to day productivity. Lets just say a Monday jammed with tons of food, flowing drinks, and karaoke is probably the most tiring yet fun way to begin a week. Nursing a hangover this evening and getting ready to depart for Macau in the morning. Oolong tea and random blockbuster movies are really making my night. More tomorrow.

best kind of casual

 Mara Hoffman Cardigan and Stolen Girlfriends Club shirt from Christing C.
Moussy top, Toms shoes c/o Lane Crawford, Celine sunglasses.

Throw all your favourite stuff together and wear it out.   I've been wearing a variation of this outfit all week, basically due to comfort and the random HK weather which is a little hot and cold at the moment.  I decided to throw on my Bliss Lau collar over the top to add a little bit of luxe to an altogether sloppy look.  I love this piece which you can wear in four different ways and is perfect for random layering.  Off to enjoy the non-rainy weather and share a bottle of wine with the boy.

Latersss
