Sexy minus the flaunting

I love the white tee + black blazer + skinnies look, but I never buy plain white tees.

Plain white tees reminds me of men’s under shirt.

I love statement tees, but wearing them takes courage – and I am not very out spoken.

Wore my favorite tee out today along with a simple black cardigan with princess sleeves (to widen my shoulders) + black skinnies + black flats + Chanel chain bag.

Classic.

Love this tee ’cause it’s sexy without flaunting any skin / flesh! (Priced HKD130 / USD16)

Though there are lots of tees out there, picking a cool one takes time.

Therefore, tee hunting is always an on-going mission for my closet.

Fresh Lips!

If I’d have to categorize, lip balms should fall under “personal care products” along with deodorants and tooth brushes.

Can’t live without lip balm because of my constantly dried lips.

I’d strategically place my lip balms in such a way that I can just grab one within a reach: a jar of Kiehl’s balm on my office desk, a Mary Kay lip balm in my bathroom, and on my bedside, my jacket pockets…etc.

Recently found in my purse is FRESH’s Suger Rose Tinted Lip Treatment SPF 15 – it smells go, and it’s made with all natural ingredients that doesn’t wax up my lips.  One application last for hours and the best part is that the tint of natural rosy colour gives my lips a natural pink shine.

A note to keep the tube in good condition:  the lip balm is made softer than average, so, remember not to keep it in your jeans pocket or under extreme heat (don’t bring it with you to the beach!) 

It’s quite pricy at USD22.50, but I think it’s an essential products that worth investing in.

Steve Madden Sexy Flats

Been addicted to the show, “Rachel Zoe Project”.

Took inspiration from the styling goddess and went for my first mega heel experience at Steve Madden 2 days ago - Rachel was able to run, walk on snow, and work, wearing those 7 inches.

 I thought, I can too.

Tried on a pair of brown 5-inch pumps at the shop…opps…couldn’t balance.  My body couldn’t manage to balance on the third step, urgh.  I guess it’s a talent for walking in heels too.

Love the extreme height of Steve Madden – it’s either 5-inch heels or flats.

Feeling defeated but I couldn’t leave empty-handed.  In the end, I opted for a total opposite – flats.

I don’t normally wear flats since some flats make my legs look fat & short, but Steve Madden’s flats have really nice cut, that elongate the legs.  It goes perfectly with skinnies, which I wear all the time.

With a pair of black and a pair of nude, I think I have a pretty good flat basics.

Travel size Chanel No.5

Chanel launched a limited edition Chanel No. 5 fragrance series with 3 refills and a travel size perferm bottle.

Bought it.

Love it.

While the original Chanel No. 5 is regarded as the legendary fragrance, the scent is too strong for my taste. 

Launched in 2007, Chanel No.5 Eau Première is a down-to-earth alternative.

The scent is light, fresh, and very clean – just perfect for everyday wear.

I am now keeping a bottle in my Chanel purse – matchy matchy!
