Long White Skirt?

I know the long white skirt was in last summer, but I can't get away with it!! I love the way it just flows with the wind. I look like a prairie girl~!!!

Love the Sun!!

Great weather weekend in NYC!!! Here's a pic of my outfit. :-)

Sheer panels! It's sheer in just the right places. :-)

Denim is by 7 for all mankind, roxanne fit (skinny fit), with destroyed floral patterns.

Loafer trend

What do you guys think about the loafers? I see them showing up more in stores. I'm thinking of getting a pair for myself, but I can't help thinking of my grandmother when I try them on at the stores. Not a bad thing, but nostalgia kicks in and I begin to really miss her(she's in Asia).  I can't help thinking about how fashionable my grandmother may be in the old days. :-) Anyways, as I was shoe shopping at Macy's the other day, I find myself walking closer and closer into the mature women's section, in search of a cute loafer. HAHA. My friend couldn't find me after a while.

They are comfort shoes and I'm glad the popularity of comfort shoes is on the rise within the young and fashionable group, as it is hard to walk around with 5 inch heels or flats with no support.  YAY to comfort shoes!!

Here are my favorites!


Cute AK Ann Klein loafer. I love the color and the bow!!





















This one really reminds me of my grandmother. I can't help but loving this pair!!!!










This one you guys probably seen around. I like it, but for some reason it's not that comfy and it hurts my bones. Maybe it's not made for my feet?






This one really appeals to me. I think it's because it's pointed.











Reminder, Macy's shoe sale is ending today. 
1 pair 15% off
2 pairs 20% off
3 pairs+ 30% off







Here are some loafers at Macy's website. I don't think they have much selection online.  Please go to the stores for more selection.  Also note, stores close early on Sundays.



























More loafers at Macy's...

Men's Chambray Trend!


























The Chambray utility look is back!! It is inspired by the early to mid 1900s of the working class men.  I am seeing many Chambray shirts in the market for men's this spring and coming summer.  I like the rugged look that makes the men of all shapes and
sizes look like labor-men, similar to how these shirts, known for its durability, came to be.  The top image is by Polo Ralph Lauren.  The comparable and affordable alternative is, to the left, by J Crew. 





(Please note, Chambray is not the same as denim. Denim is in a twill weave while Chambray is in plain weave.  They look similar due to their similar washing techniques.)




Also I noticed nice Chambray linen shorts!!




****Please do not wear the chambray shirt with a chambray shorts.****

High-Low Silhouette

Hi-Lo~ I went from flowing tops to the silhouette that looks like my hair being blown. haha. I meant the hi-lo trend.  I really like the subtle versions of the hi-lo silhouette.  (It literally looks like my hair in 1 piece laying on my back and when there's wind or when I walk, the tail/hair part acts like a cape. Okay too much imagination ) Currently I'm just shopping around for this trend. Got several pieces already!  Hi-lo tops are great with leggings, cropped pants, skinny jeans, so basically anything tight fitting on the bottom. If it is a dress you can wear them with pretty much any summery shoes. I prefer sandal wedges or flat strappy sandals.  Here's a picture of one of my hi-lo tops.   I got this piece from Century 21 Department store around my area. It is by Willow & Clay.



(Yes I need to clean out the back of my door. :-\ )

Favorites from Forever21~

Floral Pants?

Look what I saw in the Metro Newspaper!! Yeah it's dated March 29, 2012. :-) Floral prints are making its way into our denim world.  All of a sudden the classic blue denim that many people thought will not change anymore, have grown into something.... fun~ Obviously the blue denim will still be a classic that will never die, but I'm liking this new look. I haven't found any nice cheap ones in stores yet, but we'll see..  Only saw them in designer brands (also seen below). I guess the cheaper store haven't got the memo yet.  I wouldn't want to dish out hundred + dollars for this fad.

And also, notice the bright denim to the right~






Also, I found my bright CORAL denim!! :-) Got it at Macy's for $24.99 by Celebrity Pink.

Macy's SHOE SALE!! (ends April 15)

I just got back from shoe shopping. Macy's is offering:
15% off 1 pair
20% off 2 pairs
30% off 3 pairs of shoes!!

I had to take advantage of this offer.  There weren't my size on these pair of shoes I wanted for my little vacation trip I will be going.  Instead the customer rep. offered to ordered them through their system and ship it to me for free!! I love this service! Fortunately they have my size in their warehouse. :-) My friend that was with me, bought a pair for herself and 2 for her mommy. 30% off entire purchase :-)  I can't wait until I receive my shoes!! They said it should take about 4 business days. :-)

Happy Shoe shopping at Macy's!!!!


Here's some nice nude shoes selection to go with the bright color trend!! 

Forever 21 "Essential" Line

Just went shopping on Forever 21.com. The main reason I love them is because they are affordable and disposable fashion. I won't shop there if I want to own the item for 5+ years. It is simply a guilty pleasure to splurge in that store. Many of my friends don't like the store but love the website. Their website is definitely a growing business for them. 

They ship for free in the USA on orders over $50.
Here are some items I found on their site from their "Essential" line or as I love to call it "dirt-cheap line"! This is their basics line.  Everything I selected are under $15.50.

Capri Pants - $15.50


Basic Tank Top - $2.80

Sheer Floral Blouse - $10.80

Leggings - $4.80


They ship for free in the USA on orders over $50.
