I have been looking for an exciting yet not so bright colored purse for awhile. When I saw this Rebeca Minkoff "Mini 5-Zip" at the New York Century 21, I immediately fell in love! Century 21 has been my new favorite place to shop since I moved to New York last winter. I can easily find great designer pieces at a lower price. For this outfit, my orange bag helped to brighten up the dark colors of my outfit. I wore this for a weekend tour in Willamsburg. The jean jacket gives the whole look a urban, street feel.

CARDIGAN COAT

Recently I was introduced a global online fashion retail company called Sammy Dress. They provide on-trend fashions at a very affordable price. I fell into this cardigan when I was looking through their huge fashion collection. The thickness makes it both a cardigan and a coat, the perfect choice for an early spring day when the temperature is till cool in the mornings and afternoon. This was the last outfit I shot in Saratoga and I officially moved into Brooklyn this past weekend (Yeah!) I can't wait to start my new adventure in exciting New York City!

Even through it was officially spring beginning yesterday, the winter in upstate New York is still hanging around. My friends sent me some pictures of the flowers blooming in Beijing, they make me miss the city so much. Lately my schedule has been crazy and so full. I am getting ready for moving to New York City and finding a perfect place to have my upcoming wedding. It is really difficult to decide because the venue is the most important step towards the entire wedding. After I met with about seven wedding managers from different locations I'm going to make a final decision in the next couple of days. This outfit was shot before a wedding meeting in Saratoga Springs. I love this romantic town so much and we were engaged in an Italian restaurant here too!

FAVORITE OSCAR DRESSES

When it comes to Oscar night, one of my (and every girl's) favorite things to do is watch the red carpet for new fashions. The picture above shows three of my favorite dresses from last night. I especially liked Amy Adams's navy dress which caught my eye immediately. I fell for the simple and modern tailored look and the gorgeous material that makes the dress appear flawless. One of the fun moments from last night was when Ellen set the record for 1 million retweets in 45 minutes, and it is still going up (it's at about 3 million right now). Isn't it amazing? The power of the internet is just unbelievable. What are your favorite dresses and best moments from this year's Oscars?

For the people who are working in the fashion field, fashion weeks are always the craziest weeks in the year. There are so many new designs that are being shown off from the most talented designers. I started watching the live streaming fashion week from BCBG Max Azria. It is so amazing that I can watch the show while it's happening.

MAKEOVER MONDAY: MIXING PATTERNS


Lately I've been looking at so many great designs from the Milan and Pairs fashion week. I really like the pattern combinations that are not suppose to match in the same outfit. But the unexpected mixings of patterns causes some very interesting results. It makes the outfit more vivid and playful. So here is my take: A floral jumpsuit and a stripe shirt. I got this jumpsuit a couple years ago at H&M and I really love the pattern. I choose this off white shirt because the two colors (off white and black) can also be found in the colorful jumpsuit. Due to the comfort of the jumpsuit, it will be a good choice for a weekend picnic with friends or going into nature for some beautiful fall pictures!

APPLE PICKING DAY


It's fall again and picking apples is the most interesting activity for those of us living in the northeast of the United States. Gala happens to be my favorite apple variety, but while apple picking this year I also found a lot of different kinds which also have a great taste. The Snow Sweet and Jonamac were a few new favorites of mine. We picked about 20 lbs. of apples by the end of the day.

I recently really like to wear an all black outfit that is made from a variety of different materials and then match a colorful bag with the outfit.

The leaves started getting colorful.
This is one of my favorite backpacks, I got it from Denmark last year. I really like the boxy feeling of it. I got the 13'' one but I can still put my 15'' laptop in it. The fox logo is really cute.

FACE TO FACE FRIDAY: FALL HYDRATION



Today, I really feel that summer is over, next is the long fall and winter. Fall in New York always makes me feel very dry, so moisturizing the skin in the fall is my biggest task. In today's Face to face inside, I will share with you how to hydrate.

Daily routine: Clinique's Clarifying Lotion 1 and New Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+ . These two must be use together to be more effective, use a cotton ball soaked with the toner and carefully apply to the face. That will help the moisturizer absorption particularly fast, the skin will feel very comfortable.

Daytime: Avene Thermal Spring Water. Spray a fine layer when the cheeks feel dry or T zone feels oily , wait a few minute then pad dry with tissue. In particular for who often use computers, this spray can also have a protective effect on the skin.

Mask: Clarins HydraQuench Cream Mask. I have been using this one for years, moisturizing effect is great and the smell is really good.
What are your recommend products that you use for hydrating? I hope you all have a great weekend!

BLOG POSTING CALENDAR

On my previous blog site, I didn't make any plans for what I wanted to post. I was kinda free when I wanted to post something on my blog. But after a while I really got lazy opening my blog. Recently I decided to make a posting calendar which will be a great way to help motivate myself and keep up the activity of my blog. So here is my weekly posting schedule:

Makeover Monday- I will try and create an outfit in different style that I am interested in.
Trendy Tuesday- Share the latest trend with my readers.
Wish-list Wednesday- As it says it is my wish-list!
Try It Thursday- Sharing things that are easy to make at home by yourself.
Face To Face Friday- Experiences and suggestions about skin care and make-up.

On the weekends, I will have a casual post about the designers I like, the books I've read, the food I've eaten or the music I've listened too. I hope you will enjoy reading my blog, cheers!

NEW YEAR TRIP TIPS

Even through it is only September, I am sure some of you are already thinking about new year trip now. Here are photos from Las Vegas from this past new year. It was very cold and dry in January in Vegas. Before the trip, I planed all my outfit for each days' activity. But it was still something wrong with them.





Tips:
1. Must have a pair of sneaker or flat, or more! ( Walking around the strip, go to concert, Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam )
2. Warm coat.( Hang out at night, fireworks)
3. Make it simple. ( It is important to stay beautiful, but the time is more important. Vagas is not as fancy as you think, just make youself comfortable.)
