AA sweatshirt, vintage skirt from Portobello market, Asos socks, Cheap Monday wedges.

Just a casual Sunday outfit.  I wore this camouflage skirt last night, but dressed it down with the most worn in American Apparel sweatshirt for an afternoon with the boy.  I started my brunch with the usual bloody mary, the boy managed to consume four eggs, we agreed Oolaa's orange juice is extra delicious for a reason we cannot decipher, and quickly rushed home before the Australian Open final.  I am now tucked tightly into bed contemplating a nap while observing the boy cheer for his favourite tennis player.  Nothing beats a lazy end to the weekend.  

Please don't forget to vote for me as Asos Future Stylist!  It would mean soo much to me if you guys could help me get to Round 2.  You can vote once a day!! Thank you in advance for your amazing support!!

Bodkin

Bodkin Plasma dress (on sale at Christing C), Louis Vuitton belt, AA socks, Zara boots.

I have decided Bodkin make the best knitwear.  From their chunky recycled wool Caos sweater to the ultra sheer long sleeve Catalyst top there is enough variety to keep me happy in heaps of snow or on a breezy beach.  I decided to throw on the uniquely knit Plasma dress during a rushed moment just before leaving home.   My brother's well used Louis Vuitton belt was added as a last minute afterthought and actually made the perfect accessory.

Bodkin is in the sale at Christing C. and apparently this was their last season :-( Get it while you can...the Caos sweaters are disappearing fast!

God Save the Queen

 Asos shorts and beanie, One Teaspoon tee via Asos.

This was another look I was playing around with and contemplated submitting for Round One of Asos Future Stylist.  It's a little more casual, and incorporates a thin long sleeve tee that feels as comfortable as a pajama top when worn.

2012 ASOS FUTURE STYLIST

 
 

Asos shorts and boyfriend beanie.  One Teaspoon kimono via Asos.

I am so excited to tell you guys that I have been selected to compete in the 2012 ASOS Future Stylist competition!

Click here to vote for me!!

Here is my first look.  The theme of the round one was "dressing up denim" and to choose a piece from Asos' sweetly bright "candy box denim" collection.  I predictably lunged for the bright, neon pink shorts and gave the outfit a grunge feel by pairing the cute shorts with a slouchy beanie and over sized kimono.  

Please vote for me by clicking on the link HERE!!  And the best part is voting instantly enters you in a chance to win a £200 Asos gift certificate!! Just click on the link, like the Asos Facebook Page, and vote for me :-) 

Vote Vote Vote!!!

Come back tomorrow for special Asos giveaway!

 Thank you so much for your support!!

just the way you made me

Bodkin Catalyst top (on sale at Christing C.) H&M shorts, Kain tank, Asos beanie.

Preparations are in full gear here in Hong Kong and everyone is awaiting their Chinese New Year celebration.  The boy and I are all packed and ready to cross the busy border into China to spend the holiday with the family.  I'm anticipating copious platters of steaming traditional cuisine, wine flowing in abuandance, laughter ringing throughout the night, fire crackers popping into the early am, playful attempts at gambling, and a few festive red envelopes. 

Kung Hei Fat Choy!!

in another life

We have arrived home safely and I'm snuggly tucked in bed feeling a little under the weather.  I am such a magnet for post holiday flu.  This last trip was the perfect antidote to a crazily busy year, and I'm pretty sure it's the first time the boy and I fully relaxed in months.  Unfortunately between all the eating, sunning, swimming, and cocktailing we forgot to pick up the giant camera and snap a few outfit shots.  Don't worry, our holdiay is pretty heavily captured via iPhone (wow we are so 2012) so in case you don't follow me on Instagram, here is a little diary of our trip!  

Back to real life, real outfit posting tomorrow ;-)

living in a postcard

It's the last day in paradise and I'm reluctant to return to reality.  We have just over 24 hours to soak up as much sun and sand as one can handle.  The boy and I have been on a hundred bumpy tuk tuk rides, ventured out to discover the most seculded stunning beaches, drank rum infused pineappe cocktails by the bucket or half watermelon full, consumed the freshest lime drenched spicy seafood, immersed ourselves in the heaven worthy sunsets, and fully relaxed for the first time in forever.  I'm off to enjoy our last day, but I'll leave you with a few snapshots.
