Autumn Palette

BCBG MaxAzria Blazer/ American Apparel Tank/ Forever 21 Leggings/ BCBG MaxAzria Rings/ Dena Earmuffs/ Stella Luna Pumps

It is that time of the year when the leaves all turn red and fall to carpet the streets. I really wanted to capture the scene so I got together with InYan last friday to shoot these. This is basically what I was wearing on a regular school day, I just switched into heels, added some more makeup and jeweled it up. 
Honestly, I can't bare to accept the fact that the coming of autumn indicates that the cold freezing winters are not so far ahead. Frustration...... sometimes you just have to find the beauty of all the not so favorite things.

Black tipytoes


Stella Luna Pumps/ Michael Kors Watch/ Cartier Juste un Clou Ring/ Unknown Ring/ OPI Nail Polish in Barefoot in Barcelona

Gloomy Saturday. I asked a friend to help take a few pictures of the outfit, but they all turned out to be out of focus and this is the only two pictures I could use. Disclaimer for why I keep posting my STUFF.

So I think I could be a spokesperson for Stella Luna since I have so many pairs. These black pumps were another of my "harvests" when I was back in Beijing for the Summer and it is my first time wearing them. Simple but not that simple. They match everything, gives the outfit an extra sexy vibe, and will never be out of trend. Despite the point-toe, these were overall comfortable to walk in. Will be wearing them more often. Love!

Laura Mercier Mineral Powder


Product review on Laura Mercier's Mineral Powder. It is that age when the hormones are extra vigorous and the skin is full of flaws. I have combination skin and am acne prone. I preferably want to skip the makeup routine in mornings for a few extra minutes of sleep, but with concern not to scare anyone, minimal touch-ups here and there are still necessary. Decided to go with a mineral foundation as they seem lighter weight and healthier to wear on a daily basis. 
Laura Mercier Mineral Powder in Natural Beige. It is buttery smooth with buildable coverage. I buffed it all over my face with a kabuki brush and focused a little more on my little red friends and dark under eyes. According to the list on the box, there is pearl powder as an ingredient which is quite exciting. Despite comparatively it feels drier than the BB cream I used before, I am enjoying the texture and the glowy finish.
Comparison of the before and after....pictures speak louder than a thousand words.

Creed Fragrance

Top to bottom: Creed Love In White/ Creed Acqua Florentina/ Creed Silver Mountain Water/ BCBG Max Azria Ring

How spoiled to say that Creed is the fragrance that should never be missing from my vanity. I try to stay away from anything sweet, and Creed's complex and lushly scents makes me go back to it every time.  
If I was not confused, I think Silver Mountain Water is actually for mens. But once I smelt it, I had to own it anyway and it is still the favorite among all. 

Now I am in dreams.....

Red Flash

Stella Luna Pumps

I first saw them when going shopping with my girlfriend for her wedding shoes, and it was a battle between another woman in store when we heard they were limited edition. These are just so lady-like, elegant while sexy at the same time. Sally definitely rocked them with her red Qipao during her wedding day, and I couldn't keep my eyes off them as they would flash at me every time she walked.  
When I found another, and the last pair in another store, I couldn't resist and get one for myself. Shh! I haven't told Sally yet...

I always stock up on Stella Luna's when I am back in China. Chic, comfortable to walk in, and somewhat affordable.... Be sure to check them out if you have a chance.

Autumn Fall

Zara Shirt/ Zara Pants/ DKNY Blazer/ Stella Luna Boots/ Rebecca Minkoff Bag/ H&M Ring/ No Brand Ring/ Forever Mark Diamond Rings


Checkered shirts are back this season and no one should be missing out. Paired it with a blazer and boots for a clean smart look before heading out to shop with the brother. I am a fan of the "pop of color" concept so it is the pink bag that makes the outfit more fun. Showing off my new phone case which I know it naive but totally cute. 

Can't wait to share more...
