Happy Friday and Happy Halloween everyone!

I know you have been waiting anxiously to hear of the MICHAEL KORS GIFT CARD GIVEAWAY which I had promised to be posted today. Unfortunately due to some logistical issues, we will not be able to launch it till Monday, 3 November 2014. So please watch this space on Monday to log in your entries.

Michael Kors who is well known for designing classic American Sportswear, has made his mark in the fashion league with both his MICHAEL Michael Kors and KORS Michael Kors collections. His style has always been simple, chic and elegant and therefore are always classics to own and has timeless value. Many Hollywood celebrities have been seen styled in Michael Kors e.g Jennifer Lopez, Heidi Klum, Catherine Zeta-Jones and even USA's first lady - Michelle Obama just to name a few. So I decided to dedicate this post to my favourite Michael Kors outfits from his Resort Collection 2015, just to tickle your tastebuds.

Seeing it's Halloween, I was not going to post a picture of myself in some hideous god-forsaken costume, however felt this Michael Kors Snake Print Dress ( from couple of seasons back)would somehow suffice to create an element of fun for this post.I had to top off the look with my Michael Kors Chronograph Watch - a favourite accessory of mine and many other fashion bloggers, if you haven't noticed just yet.

Happy Monday everyone.

The boy is finally back to school - YEAH!!!! Had a request recently from a reader who asked to showcase some outfits she could wear with Glasses. As I do not wear glasses - it was a bit of a challenge that was put out to me but I love challenges.

So I decided to share this look with you which was a spin I had done recently on #PinnedItSpinnedIt. As you can see, the pin was of an outfit that was worn with glasses so ideally this is one look you could consider wearing with glasses. However as I do not own a pair, I could not incorporate it into my spin. Nonetheless as starters, a great idea of an outfit to work with.



So here are some outfit inspirations that I had put together in the following styleboards to trend glasses with. And YES, you can wear large, darker frame glasses with an evening gown.

Goyard Bag, Charles David heels ( Heels.com), Labor of Love belt, New Look( ASOS) White Peplum Top Keada's Kloset ( Jewelry), Maroon Pencil Skirt ( Polyvore), Light Brown Cardigan ( Uniqlo).

Dress and Floppy Hat ( ASOS)

Bottega Veneta Clutch, Christian Louboutin Heels, Chanel Necklace, Lavish Alice Dress

Vince Long Sleeve Shirt ( Polyvore), Black Pants ( GAP), Valentino Rockstud Heels, Chanel Earrings, Long Black Blazer ( Dorothy Perkins), Louis Vuitton Soft Lockit, Missoni Scarf

Hi everyone and happy Friday to you!
I particularly like how the outfit stood out against the rustic temple that lies below a hill near my home. I wanted to present you a side of Hong Kong, which most don't see. People often see Hong Kong as a vibrant bustling city with branded stores and shops lining streets after streets in the city, and people mostly living in apartments on the main island. Where I live which is a good 45 mins from the main city, a vast majority of village people ( yes I do live in a village away from the city) are pretty religious and god fearing to a certain extent. There are about 4 shrines in total in my village alone. So, I wanted to have you feel the " heart" of old Hong Kong and so decided on this backdrop for this shoot.

Hi everyone. The perfect Fall weather is finally here. Not too hot in the morning and evenings, which allow me to throw on a light outerwear and take it off once it starts to warm up by midday. Enjoyed putting together this bright and cheerful outfit to start your week with.

Hi everyone! Yeah it's Friday again!

Wore this outfit recently as a spin off @ #PinnedItSpinnedIt on Instagram recently and thought it ideal to share this look with you, for a casual dress down Friday at work or for the weekend out. Classy yet quietly simple, polka dots somehow does add that feminine touch to an outfit without being too over " girly".
