retro modernism

.

chiffon trench, yesstyle
floral dress from laurustinus
cat bangle from amelie street
bow bracelet, house of luxe
strawberry vintage purse, late manta
chunky heels from Joy & Peace

.

i hoped to achieve the perfect balance of retro and modern with this look. the bold floral prints and the persian green chunky heels from Joy & Peace are brightly nostalgic, and the petite strawberry purse is totally flapperish, but the chiffon trench, quirky cat bangle and navy polka dots socks partnered to add just the right dosage of modernity…i hope

tropical

.

yellow jacket, yesstyle
lovebirds tank top from laurustinus
pug purse from amelie street
apple socks from h&m
tangerine flatforms from Joy & Peace

.

it’s the pug again :> this time he is joined by two lovebirds, together with the bright apple socks, the look has quite an uplifting tropical vibe.

pvc is the ‘it’ material for shoes this season. the transparent strap of this pair of flatforms from Joy & Peace is such a fun touch!

if you have been reading my blog you would be familiar with laurustinus, the shop that inspired my love for sweet retro style. they are no longer in apple mall tin hau and their new address is: 3/f eton tower, causeway bay. pay a visit to my friend peggy when you have time :) you will be amazed by the lovely clothes handpicked by her from korea!

a bird, a pug & a deer





.

folded shoulder sweater & floral skirt, yesstyle
birdie necklace, pug purse & doggie socks from amelie street
deer ring, modekungen
strappy wedges from Joy & Peace

.

it goes without saying that i prefer style over comfort. i m overjoyed by this pair of legs lengthening wedges from Joy & Peace which is both chic and comfy, adjectives that are usually, if not always, mutually exclusive. dove white shoes are summer essentials, pair them with light grey top and nonchalant charm is guaranteed.

does the pug purse make your smile? :) it’s designed by uuendy lau, a hong kong designer whose aesthetics and creativity i absolutely admire. the pug is not alone, he is accompanied by a zebra, a polar bear and an alpaca, other members of uuendy’s animal family.

the pug purse/clutch, the birdie necklace and the doggie socks are all from a local select shop called amelie street, which is defintiely one of my favorite shops at the moment. it’s the wonderland for all lovers of quirky, playful styles that are full of wow factors. seriously you can find almost all kinds of animal accessories there!!! i also got a cat bangle which i ll show you later :)

i must confess that the result surprised me a bit. rationally i know every number has equal chance of being picked (the whole point of randomness), but am i the only one who feels that 1, 2 or 3 is less likely to be chosen? *awkward silence* ok i m silly, got it.
