Modern Knit by Xiao Li.

I am really in love with this grad collection by Xiao Li, who is originally from Qing Dao China and finished her study at Royal College of Art. She also won the ITS Diesel Award this year. It is very important that she could strike the balance between innovative and practicality, her pieces are wearable yet very creative by mixing the traditional knit with the modern texture, creating this gigantic puffy cut, she also said that the simplicity and architectural cutting is mainly inspired the famous Balenciaga, her favorite designer. Can't wait to see more from this very talented young designer. 

Souces: Here and there

[Oufit] Autumn is finally here!

The autumn comes late this year here, I could sweat even I am only wearing a thin knitwear in early November. I just started to feel chilly on last Saturday, and I thought: Finally...! The autumn is here!

So I finally could wear my thick knitwear/pullover! I love autumn/winter so much as I love layering outfits! I love mixing and matching my clothes and not getting sweat with thick layering of clothes.

The black huge scarf is one of my favourite item in my winter closet, I got it about 3 years ago from All Saints outlet! And I still love it even though I have added several new scarfs among these years. As I mentioned, I hardly throw my stuffs unless it's broken, especially those I really love, and I love many stuffs. So I ended up keeping everything I have bought since years ago. Sometimes I find that they are still adorable and totally wearable, and, you know, the secret is, I love the fact that you hardly could meet the awkward situation where you see everyone on the street wearing the same outfit as you when you are actually wearing the old seasoned items. *Grin* So my trick is matching the old seasoned item with the new season clothing and voila! You will have your very own style! 

So this time I have my old scarf, old boots, everything old except the silver shimmering pleated skirt I just bought week ago! Love the new skirt! However, the smaller sizes were sold out, so the skirt is a little bit unfit and I think the waist-line should be higher where the skirt could be a little bit shorter, guess I have to alter the waist size later. Hmmphh. 

We walked around on the streets that day after some wedding preparation as the weather is cool and nice, walking and taking pictures of everything we see everywhere. 

Anyway, yes, autumn is here! And very soon will be the winter's turn. I guess the weather is very unpredictable these days, we literally only have few days of autumn before it's turning into winter this year. Weird. 

Sorry for the long post. 

Can't get over with i-D mode. 

Soup of the Day: Autumn is finally here!

[Outfit] Puffy!

I am definitely in love with this kind of skirt, love that it could stand puffy itself! I got this skirt from random boutique in Mong Kok, was considering whether I should buy it because the skirts come in those one free size which they expect every girl looks the same in one small waist (and they don't provide fitting room in small boutiques here.) Anyway, yea, I bought it and I could fit that in but just that I feel a little bit difficult to breath. Well, I guess it is true that they say you have to suffer to look pretty! 

Also, I love the prints/patterns on the skirt! It looks like 3D engraving on the skirt. Love it so much! But I think I really need a serious diet. I need to slim my waist down a bit. After the whole night of this outfit, I felt suffocated. Urgh. 

And, lately I have a lot of thinking, like what to do and what to choose. I don't know, I think I have to be true to my heart and accept the real own me and love the real own me (ok, got inspired somewhere) Anyway, I just do not want to hide anymore. I mean, I may be a dreamer but I am sure I'm not the only one. I guess, although the stuffs I do seems a little bit meaningless to some people, but who cares really? Anyway. 

Soup of the Day: Puffy!
