Be Minimal #OOTD5

Less is more~

Today when I got up I knew it was going to be a lazy day...

But I had to get change to pop into town to get a few things ready for Hong Kong.

So I just put on this plain loose dress with a slight cowl neckline. 

Very simple but yet quite bold with the sharp silhouette. 

Sometimes plain, simply and shapeless clothing can be interesting too. It is all about how you style it and finish the look off with some statement pieces or using texture to make it more fun!

Dress- Hong Kong

Shoes- boutique in Hong Kong

Necklace- H&M

Rings- H&M and vintage

Bag- H&M

(you can tell which shops are my fav! :P)

David Beckham in Elle~

When I saw this months Elle and who was on the front cover , I had to get it!

It wasn't just because David Beckham was half dress and he naturally good looking (who am I kidding!) But the other reason was I did hear a few months ago that he will be the first ever male icon to be on Elle magazines cover. So I was so excited to see what the article had to say and I got to say it is an amazing piece! A totally different point of view towards him and it was so sweet for him to talk about his daily life with his family, especially about his kids.

David talks about his daily routine and says that a typical day for him was "I'll wake up at quarter to seven in the morning, the baby wakes up at seven, the boys wake up at 7.15. Breakfast is all ready for them. Cooked by me." You would never thought David Beckham would be able to get up that early and to cook! It just shows he puts his family first no matter what and how busy his work life is. I am sure everyone thinks about football and his fame in the entertaining business but in the article he stated "I never thought about the money, the fame. It never interested me, and it doesn't interest me now." As "He works because working is what you do when you're a Beckham." Really admire that, a man who cares so much about his family and takes his job so seriously not because of the money and materialistic  behind it, but sees it as a normal job. 

Dinner Date~#OOTD4

So I have started to think about what clothes to take to Hong Kong, as I only have 8 days left! I am so excited! As I am going to Shanghai with my mum for a week in between the month I am in Hong Kong. So look out for my posts about the fashion and lifestyle in Hong Kong and Shanghai!

Sorry for babbling on~ Anyway I put together this outfit for the night when I arrive in Hong Kong, as I will be having dinner with my family. As usual we normally go to a buffet in a very nice hotel near the harbor so it is quite a formal occasion. Even though this dress is more of a summery dress, I styled it up with some bold necklaces to make a statement piece and with a half suede, half patent clutch bag (sorry for the bad lighting you can't really see the clutch...) would jazz it up a little for a formal evening. 

Printed dress- H&M

1st necklace- Bijou Brigitte

2nd necklace- Forever 21

Clutch bag- H&M

Lipstick- Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter, Candy Apple

I was never into pink~ OOTD#3

NEON PINK! Recently neon colors has caught my eye, they are literally everywhere~  I guess I can't avoid neon colors anymore, so... I brought loads of tops and shorts ready for the summer holiday in Hong Kong!

From all the neon orange, yellow, green, blue and of course pink, I am addicted to pink now. I think it compliments my skin tone quite nicely and also makes me feel girly but at the same time very bold and a bit of an attitude~ And I LOVE it!

Fashion can be anything!

Finally last night was our graduate fashion show, show casing all the third year collection with themes selected by ourselves. Have to congrats to everyone, our hard work paid off because the fashion show was amazing! I hope everyone enjoyed it and will definitely need to keep in contact~

Postmodern collection, by 3rd Years

My collection, 'Feminism.'

Even though it was hectic after the rehearsal, shoes were with wrong the collections, garments were worn back to front and the worst thing was seeing the wrong outfit in another's collection! But the evening show made us all so proud even though some outfits were still worn the wrong way... I will never forget this experience, there were high and low points and stressful moments. I thought I was actually going to walk out and never want to see any more threads, fabrics and sewing machines! But last night reminded me for the future that never give up when you're caught up in a challenge because you will never see the result, even if it isn't up to the standard you want, at least you have achieved something.

Also want to share a few images from the other collections, so proud of you all!
