Head Home

Hubby had to be out of town for another photo call with this friends all day. He left home at 6:30 am. I couldn't sleep anymore after being woken up by the alarm at 6. So I decided to get up and head home to my parents' house. I grabbed one of those ready-to-go sandwiches from Laya Breakfast, then hit the highway for the 30 min drive home.

[SOLD]: Light Apricot Ruffle Button Down Chiffon Top

Up next for your shopping pleasure and also previously featured in a Ganguro Find post is this Light Apricot Ruffle Button Down Chiffon Top.



Ruffles, ruffles, ruffles! It's what brings volumn/drama to this unique top. This would be gorgeous with denim shorts or just any shorts you already have lying in your closet. Or it can be dressed up with skinny pencil skirt and heels for work. (Can you already see the potential it has!) Note that the back side is plain with no ruffles except for the ruffled collar, hence the back is sheer. A like-color layering cami is recommanded, unless you put on a really pretty bra underneath.



Another way to make this top work for the office, is to wear a light-weight cardi over this. Be sure to unbutton the cardi and let the ruffles show. Denim pants would go perfectly with this top also. Details on the shirt:

• Sizing: Fits US Women XS, 0, or 2


• Chiffon, no stretch


• Measurements taken laying flat unstretched (in inches): Total Length (shoulder to hem) 21.25", Bust (pit to pit) 16"

Je suis tres desolee!

Im am so so so sorry fellow bloggers but exams and revision have recently got the better of me so going out and dressing up isn't really on my list of priorities en ce moment!But it's time for a break and this is what I'm wearing today: There seems to be rather frequent outbreaks of rain today and I hope it won't put a dampener of my day. Sorry the first picture is a bit blurry still working on

Japanese Kawaii Stationary

My friend whose family runs a toy & stationary store gave me these super cute/creative/kawaii/..(dunno if there's a word for them) gifts!! You wouldn't believe what some of these cute things actually are!! I'm addicted to these wacky, strange stationaries now, I think I need to go shopping for some more this weekend.



Put some clothes on your key before you leave house with these cute key covers. They are made of rubber, with tiny openings at the sides so that you can insert your key in it:






Hungry, yes? Chocolate covered waffle cookie! No, it's a fluid corrector!!






Delish cake-shaped candles! Makes for nice B Day presents, too! Hope they smell as nice as they look.





And don't swallow these vitamin pills just yet... they are erasers!!

Video of Jolin's May 09 Concert

Here's a short clip of the Jolin concert I went on Saturday. It would have been nice if I left the camera on longer, but I was too far away from the stage and I am too short. My feet and arms were sore from having to hold the camara high enough to shoot.

Jolin Concert + Cow Parade in My Neighborhood

Hubby armed with his DSLR, and I with my Canon G7 went to the free outdoor Jolin concert at the nearby Citizen Square on Saturday. (For those who don't know, Jolin is probably THE hottest pop songtress in Taiwan.) In fact, this was my first concert in Taiwan! I'd never been into Mandarin pop much. But hubby is a fan of Jolin. She is his favorite when he goes to KTVs. I enjoyed the show very much because I was with hubby LOL.

We got to the concert venue late in the afternoon, 2 hours in advance. Hubby wanted to claim a good spot at the park so that he can capture photos from a good angle. But I got hungry while waiting so we ended up waiting at a long line to get Indian food from a vendor. We weren't able to get really close to the stage by the time we finished our food.

I also took time to take photos of the concert venue and its surrounding area while waiting for the show to begin.

A view of the concert stage from afar:
The stage just prior to the show:
The media: At one of the sponsor tents, hot young show girls show off Yamaha's new scooters:
Jolin finally opened the show at around 7 in the evening. This is Jolin singing and sitting on a butterfly theme chair in mid-air. She would be shuttled by the chair from one end of the stage to the other in mid-air. Hmm..not very impressed with her shoes in this photo though.
She's wearing a gold shimmering bubble cape mini dress at the opening of the show:
And some photos of the cow parade which recently just moved into our city from a finished tour in Taipei. These cows are adjacent to the Citizen Square right by a shopping center.
Food porn!!! Hubby took me to TGI Friday's on Mother's Day.
